There's no such thing as bad publicity, right?

As a member of the obscure idol group Tea Party, Maha Lee dreams of becoming a superstar one day. But she had no idea she’d get her big break so soon by embarrassing herself on a popular talk show!

Even worse, the debacle lands her on the bad side of Ryoc Kwon, a member of the top male idol group SHAX. He now has her pegged as a talentless fake who imitates successful artists for attention.

Does Maha have what it takes to convince him and the world that she's the real deal? Discover her journey in Imitation, Vol. 1.
