Description

He's an idol, a role model and a high school student while all he wants to do is to find the real Lee Minhyung.

Foreword

4 AM

Genre: slice of life, psychological

Main Characters: Lee Minhyung/Mark Lee

Setting: non AU

Author's Note: It's kind of like a vent edit becaue it always crosses my mind what could Mark feel since he's not just an idol, he's still a high school student and a growing (psyhically and mentally) person. He works so hard, he was in all NCT units and he also writes his own lyrics. I wonder what kind of concerns he might hide behind the surface.

Chapter 1: Hands down. One of the most exquisite, beautiful, inspiring piece of work done yet! I had never in my life read such a magnificent artwork such as this!! Can I just say how much I admire your writing style?? This idea is definitely intriguing, and something that isn't written a lot. It makes me really think about young idols, because this is most likely what comes and goes into their minds T.T AND OMG I LOVEEEE THE "..successful but humble, empathetic but not clingy..." I don't know what that sentence had, but it just impacted me heavily! This deserves so much recognition, fantastic job!!! Thanks so much for this splendid writing :)

Chapter 1: This was beautiful. I've always found myself wondering what Mark could be thinking, considering he's so young (and so, so burdened). His happy exterior is just that, and you've conveyed it beautifully. This piece makes me really, really happy; kudos to you for your excellent writing, and thoughts :)

Chapter 1: Some ppl can feel really lost if they have a lot on them, and I hope Mark will remain cheerful ;))
Will u have a sequel where Mark finds himself? Like for eg he meets a girl maybe an idol just like him and they start to confide in each other or like his hyungs starts to realise smt is wrg or anything else...

Chapter 1: This is so upsetting especially because there's a really good chance that he could be feeling like this.

This was so well written biasmate <3

Chapter 1: Okay, wow. I didn't exactly expect this at all. Like well, Mark is always so cheerful and happy and people seem to think that he's like that 24/7 and even though I know that it's hard to imagine him struggling (I mean even knowing about this is saddening) but all kpop stars worked hard for where they are. I really liked your metaphores here like the moon one and the jewellery box. I think a lot of people can relate to that but we are human, we are like that. Also, the expectations of the world, society and parents were so true here, e.g. the different between who he is and who he should be. So yeah, thanks for this, for voicing out the inner thoughts of the youth. It's all really true.
