Behind This Mask

Description

Get your freak on with Circa, the newest and hottest girl group formed under T.O.P Media by Hallyu sensation Andy of Shinhwa. Debuting with the chart-topping song “Freakshow,” Circa made a circus of the media with just their teaser photos. But don’t be fooled by the six pretty faces of Violet, Sumi, Jazz, Kai Lee, Nala, and Miinah: these girls pack a powerful punch. And with the reputation of being the “female Teen Top”, they’re more than ready to break a few hearts.

But behind the microphone stand, dancing maknae Miinah has a secret broken heart of her own to attend to. She used to be Park Min Neul, an average eighteen-year-old girl dealing with a horrendous breakup that left her heart scarred—after all, it’s not easy to let go someone like Teen Top’s stunningly handsome Changjo. That was a break up no one had seen coming, especially not Min Neul. Choi Jonghyun had been her life and she thought she had been his too. Just as she finally learns to keep emotions backstage and not let tears ruin her flawlessly made-up face, Miinah is finally beginning to enjoy life as an idol. But what happens when Circa and Teen Top are forced together? Can Miinah handle being put in the spotlight with Changjo, or will she be forced to run back to the dressing room and renounce her dreams?

Guess Miinah will have to learn to hide her broken heart underneath a stage costume, and her teary face behind a mask.

Dedicated to the best dongaeng and friend ever, Whitney;

Without you, I wouldn't have my stories, my characters, and my inspiration. Thank you for everything you've done for me--absolutely everything. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have you in my life. You're not just the person I go to when I need help writing, but when I need help with anything. Thank you also for the absolutely beautiful poster, my dear!!! It's almost as beautiful as you! I can honstly say that meeting you was by far the best thing that's ever happened to me. ♥

Chapter 22: I remember reading this a while ago, and I somehow found it again. Wow, that last line though ;~; Right when Min Neul began to feel hopeful and positive about her relationship with Jonghyun(lol for lack of better word), he had to go and be a lil to her. He's just being an idiot, and pretty soon, Min Neul is gonna realize she doesn't deserve to be treated like dirt (especially since Jonghyun is unwilling to listen to reason and realize he's totally wrong). Once she does, Changhyun is gonna swoop in and be her prince charming. Jonghyun better wise up before he loses out on a good girl-__-)/

He needs to man up and realize hes wrong and get back to Min Neul! Or else Changhyun is going to come in and sweep her off of her feet~ lol Anyways LOVED IT!!
