Girl Crush, Vol. 5

By Midori Tayama

In the super-competitive world of K-pop idol trainees, perfection isn't enough. You've got to have heart

Tenka Momose was a quiet and withdrawn child, but before long she realized that the most effective way to protect herself wasn't hiding from other kids--it was being the best at everything After years of armoring herself with excellence, Tenka lives safely atop her cool-girl pedestal, admired and idolized by everyone. But her flawless composure is suddenly shaken by a very average schoolmate's impressively big dreams. At first Tenka is scornful of Erian Sato's ambition to become a K-pop idol, but the other girl's passion is so irresistible that Tenka soon finds herself with idol dreams of her own

Tenka thought she knew how hard idol training would be, but she wasn't prepared for a last-minute change of assignment to totally throw her off her game While crash-landing her first monthly eval is a lot to bounce back from, she's determined not to let it get her down. But will that resolve be enough to help her rise above her limited experience when she's offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
