Frank loves Joy. Joy loves Frank. At least, that's what they tell their parents... David Yoon's debut novel is a quirky, authentic, heartbreaking romantic comedy and a refreshingly different take on race, immigrant communities, friendship and family.
Klappentext:
Frank loves Joy.
Joy loves Frank.
At least, that's what they tell their parents . . .
Frank's parents emigrated from Korea, and have pretty much one big rule for Frank - he must only date Korean girls.
So, when Frank falls for Brit, who is smart, beautiful and white, he needs a plan.
His friend Joy Song is in the same boat and so they make a pact: they'll pretend to date each other in order to gain their freedom.
Frank and Joy agree that fake-dating is the perfect plan.
But, they soon discover that the only thing more complicated than pretending to be in love, is actually falling in love.
Soon to become a Paramount film with with Unjoo Moon confirmed to direct!
