Eighteen-year-old Min Sori has a life shaped by other people's expectations: a politician father with presidential ambitions, and a mother who runs one of Korea's biggest record labels. Sori is a rising model and label trainee who has quietly lost her love of music, and hasn't found the courage to tell her mother.
Then there's Nathaniel Lee, the Korean American lead vocalist of the world's biggest K-pop group — and Sori's off-limits ex-boyfriend. Idols aren't supposed to date, and their breakup was supposed to be final, but when a scandal upends Nathaniel's world, Sori offers him somewhere to disappear to. Old feelings resurface fast in close quarters.
A companion to XOXO, ASAP follows Sori and Nathaniel through a second-chance romance set against the pressures of fame, family expectation, and the question of whose life they're actually allowed to choose.
