Secret K-Pop idol meets American cellist, loses, gets back--same old story. But that's sort of the point of K-Pop YA, right? Though usually the cellist is another K-Pop idol, or at the very least a gazillionairess?

Teen LA cellist Jenny works at her uncle's karaoke bar for cash, and closeness-by-proxy to her deceased father. One evening, she finds herself tasked with ousting Jaewoo, a single freeloader in a group room. For some reason she's extra testy with him, but after a sing off, she's intrigued by this enigmatic boy who plays his voice like a fiddle. One thing leads to another, and Jenny is in Korea to spend time with her dying halmeoni, and she discovers there's more to Jaewoo than she realized.
