Pretty Words, Damaged Lines: K-pop and Anime-inspired Writing
Synopsis
Pretty Words, Damaged Lines: K-pop and Anime-inspired Writing is a dialogue about falling for beautiful things. Featuring writers Cleo Cheng and Lynette Teo, this session digs into the pull of K-pop idols and anime heartthrobs—and how their polish, intensity, and carefully curated mystique are reshaping romantic fiction and poetry. What makes these new age muses so addictive? Is it their polished persona, the vulnerability beneath the glamour, or the inescapable darkness of the human soul? Together, Cleo and Lynette unpack fan cultures, fantasies, and emotional stakes that power these stories, and how that electricity is translated onto the page. Come for the swoon, stay for the craft: this is a deep dive into writing about desire, beauty, and boys you can’t quite forget.
