I kind of love this a whole lot. Hipster Key is fabulous. <3

It is ridiculous how perfect hipster Kibum is in my head.

Thank you for reading :)

my minkey obsession
i knew this would be good once i read 'hipster key'
this is awesome and funny and i wish i was in nyc right now.

Tell me about it. Hipster Kibum is all the perfects in th e world. I can't even begin to tell you how much I love NYC. I've lived here all my life and I still get weird nostalgic feelings whenever I write about it.

Thanks so much for reading :D

The thing is, if I wrote about Toronto, people wouldn't know what I'm talking about. I've been to NYC once, but never long enough for me to really see the important things (haven't even been to times' square, it's that bad). But I hope to go once again ~

Thank you so much for writing!

Tims Square is flashy. Park Slope is calm. Where did you go in NYC though? Also, Toronto. I hear its name once in a while, but I've never really heard much about it.

This. Was. Awesome.
I love how Minho's character was more and more revealed throughout the story.
Great job! :D

I feel like Minho is the kind of guy that takes time for Kibum to fully understand.

Glad you liked it <3

This was wonderful. Ill admit that when I read the first few sentences and realized it was set in NYC I kind of hesitated but then I realized that was a stupid reason to hesitate and said fuck it and continue to read. (It's weird too because it's my favorite American city). I guess I was expecting cookie-cutter settings like Seoul but you took the unexpected and turned it into this beautiful thing...I hope what I'm saying makes sense.

The setting and the interactions gave me this wonderful light feeling and it was so easy to picture every scene because you described it and fit Minho and Key into it all so flawlessly without sacrificing the integrity of what makes them THEM.

...But yes. Overall beautiful fresh piece of work!!! Thank you so much for sharing it and omfg Minkey feels!! <3

I think that a lot of people forget that there's more to NYC than just Manhattan. Personally, I think all the other places are even more exciting because there's so much going on that tourists never get to see. Park Slope is one of my favorite places. It's also where my favorite indie band plays and I wanted to write about it. i'm glad this worked for you and that it wasn't just out of nowhere, but actually imaginable.

Best comment ever to be honest. Thanks so much

[paripassi]

Next time I head that way I'll have to check it out. I always loaf around Washington Square or Bryant park but they are of course both in Manhattan. I'll have to venture out!

And I'm glad! I always like to receive comments that are constructive in a way (paired with a nice freakout) where you can get a defined sense of what worked well do I like to make sure I GIVE that sort of comment. :)
