The universe of Bad Romance is centered around an unnamed bar in a fictional city. It is inhabited by a variety of characters that are, in essence, fucked up queer artists seeking for something in their lives. They often don't know what that is, and they won't be very reliable when telling you what they see, but isn't that what makes it fun?

The main work — Bad Romance — is centered around Stray Kids' 3RACHA (although that is not what they are here) and the development of their relationship. There will be spin-offs and side fics, both about them and about other characters that may or may not have appeared in the first work. Multiple K-Pop groups may be involved, often times in relationships across different idol groups. All of these works are Character Studies and the notes clarify if they require previous knowledge from other works before you read them.

The works in this series may approach a variety of topics that might be sensitive or triggering, so please make sure to check the tags on each individual work before reading if there are things like those that could upset you. More specific scenes that might be triggering will have an additional warning in the beginning notes, covered by the spoiler tag. Please let me know if there's anything I might have failed to warn for beforehand and I will fix it. Thank you for reading this, and I hope you enjoy Bad Romance :)
