ASIAN DRAMA OTP WRITING CONTEST

JOIN THE

ASIAN DRAMA OTP WRITING CONTEST!

Remember the feels when you watched your favorite couples from your favorite dramas? Remember: Descendants of the Sun? The Princess’ Man? Healer? Someone Like You? The Three Musketeers? Innocent Man? Sassy Go Go? Empress Ki? The Time We Were Not In Loved? Coffee Prince? Goong? City Hunter? The Heirs? Pinocchio? Goodbye Mr. Black? You’re Beautiful? 49 days? Cheese in the Trap? School 2015?

Remember how you cheered for the better-looking, pitiful puppy-eyed second lead to get the girl? Remember how frustrating it feels when some side characters interrupt the couple’s romantic moments? Remember how your heart hurt seeing the girl cry because of the love of her life? Remember binge watching your favorite scenes till your mother screams at the wee hours of the morning for you to sleep? This is your chance to recreate those incredible feelings brought by your favorite OTPs by writing your own story! This contest is created to satisfy those “feels” and to gather all stories about drama OTPs since the AFF community has only small fandoms of these OTPs.

READ CAREFULLY AND FOLLOW THE RULES.

SUBSCRIBING and UPVOTING are required. Subscribing will make you updated with some announcement.
NO PLAGIARISM. You will be reported immediately.
NO BASHING. You will be automatically disqualified.
I accept entries that are WRITTEN IN ANY YEAR, be it 2010. I also accept stories ENTERED IN OTHER CONTESTS, as long as the other host agrees.
The story can be ONE-SHOT OR MULTI-CHAPTERED. Can be ANY GENRE.
Enter as many times as you want.
The main couple must be OTP from any Asian drama (Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, etc).
The side characters don’t need to be from the same drama. You can use any idol/actor/actress for the side characters. What is important is that the “main” couple must be from the “same” drama. It doesn’t matter if in that drama series, the two characters didn’t end up together.

For example: Park Shin Hye and Kim Woo Bin of The Heirs didn’t end up together, since Woo Bin is only the second lead. But in your story, you can use their characters as the main couple.

Remember, and yuri are not allowed. I liked bromance, but please, no main couple from the same gender.

The plot of your story doesn’t need to follow the original drama. You don’t even have to use the names of their characters in the drama. MAKE YOUR OWN PLOT with the OTPs as your main couple.
USING PROMPTS IS NOT REQUIRED. If you need inspiration, you can use them. See Chapter 2.
Promote this writing contest through a BLOG. Don’t forget to put the link of this contest in the blog.
CO-AUTHORS, REVIEWERS, AND BETA-READERS ARE ALLOWED, but the prizes will be given solely to you. It will be your choice if you want to split your winnings to them.

Author: KJINJH
Story Title: Lens and Chlorine
Story Link: http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/1113426
Genres: romance, drama, angst
Focuses: I guess, everything? Sorry. I wanna know my story as full package. Is it interesting? Inviting? Boring? Writing skill, grammars, typos. Is it too plain? Well, and else. Also the characters. I think overall. I am ready for any critism ^^

Story Title: An Inheritor's Marriage
Story Link: http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/615507/an-inheritor-s-marriage-read-chapter-24-arrangedmarriage-drama-jinki-onew-romance-shinee-marriagelife
Genres: romance, drama, arrangemarriage,
Trigger warnings: Softcore (?) in some parts
Focuses: Hi! So I recently just came back from a year long hiatus with this story and wanna come back to it. My only issue is I wanna know how my characters are from a reader's point of view. I would like my review to be focused on the characters (predominately Jinki and Nayeon) but ultimately all the reoccurring characters. I want to build on my character development/establishments. You can go ahead and be as honest as possible. Also perhaps how I am depicting the issues (so far).

Story Title: Voiceless Scream
Story Link: https://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/1030716/voiceless-scream-angst-drama-kangin-kangmin-kyuhyun-leeteuk-sungmin
Genres: romance (), psychological
Trigger warnings: Psychological, suicide attempt, kidnapping and abuse of children, ia, attempt murder. (all of those are backgrou dinformation so they have are non-graphic scenes)
Focuses: I would like to hear your thoughts mostly on characterization and flow. This story was based on strange dream I had (pretty much what happened in the last three chapters) so I'm most sure this plot is not the most outstanding I had so far, but please comment on it since I would like to know if i could give a little bit of sense into this slice of life story. I feel the end in a bit lacking again because my dream ended there and whatever could come to be added next would only feel dragged in my point of view. The side characters were not mean to have huge spotlights, but have important actions in the play so please comment if any of them felt too plain or lacked the necessary depth. Finaly English is not my first language and I did have a lot of help with my grammar so any new imput would be good, but you can give just an overall view since pretty much every reviewer points out the very same flaws I am still trying to correct ^^ that's it XD

Chapter 6: Thanks for the review ^^ I am just really excited to write a sequel that I really didn't think about the title that much when I started this story. But yeah there could have been a much better title even though my targets at first are really just those who have watched the drama. To give them a proper ending cx I'm not good at descriptions too. I'm still working on that. I am happy that you like my characters tho. I tried to make them really lovable so that readers wil find it hard to hate them once i show who the villain really is cx And omg thanks for the plot holes/points ;A; It will be really helpful. The plot wasn't really supposed to be like that but as I write it gets really messy because I tried connecting everything and unintentionally creat more subplots. I'll read the review again and fix all the things you said. Thanks again. <3 cREDITED

Trigger warnings: infidelity, character death, brief homophobia, smoking/drugs
Focuses: characterisation mostly as i know that my characters lack development, especially towards the end. also the flow as my time jumps are random and several people have told me that they're confusing - i think i need advice on how to fix this :) thank you.
