Every night at 10pm, Dong Gyun shuts himself in his room, tissues at the ready, and tunes into his favourite live cam show hosted by the captivating Alex. To Dong Gyun, Alex isn't just another online performer - he's confident, uninhibited, and everything Dong Gyun secretly wishes he could be.
But one drunken night changes everything. After blacking out at a school networking event. Dong Gyun wakes up in an unfamiliar bed... beneath a shirtless stranger who looks exactly like the from his screen.
When fantasy collides with reality, Dong Gyun's carefully guarded world unravels - because facing Alex in the flesh might be far more than he ever bargained for.
I'm a big fan of BJ Alex, it's one of the stories I've re-read more than once. I love the characters as well as the development of the plot and characters.
Volume 1 for me perfectly introduces the main characters as well as some of the side characters we begin to grow close to further into the story. I also love how it shows us how the main characters become entangled with one another and shows how different Jiwon portrays himself in public to when Dong Gyun's finds out his identity.
I love that it's prominently in black and white with flashes of red now and again throughout.
Dong Gyun seems to be really shy and reserved with his only friend seeming to be his co-worker Chanwoo, he's also really naive and doesn't seem to like confrontation.
Jiwon on the other hand is popular and the perfect student and "friend" on the surface, which all changes when Dong Gyun figures out he's the infamous BJ Alex. His let's his mask fall and shows his "true" self to threaten to keep Dong Hyun quiet.
By the end of this volume, Jiwon has put forward a deal to Dong Gyun because he knows he will be able to control him for his own gain.
I don't think I'll ever get bored of re-reading this series, and falling in love with the characters all over again each time.
See you soon!
