operation : ???

in which a group of 7 mafia members
secretly kidnap a kpop idol without
an actual plan

meet the cast.

Oh Haewon is the leader of NMIXX,
currently on hiatus after returning home
for a well-deserved break. Unbeknownst
to her, while she was busy performing on
stage, her father had fallen deep into a
gambling addiction, accumulating a
debt of three hundred million won before
disappearing into hiding. Now, the
consequences of his choices
are about to find her instead.

Yang Jungwon is the leader of Enhypen,
one of the most well-known mafia
organizations in Korea. Calm,
collected, and far more organized
than the six men he leads, Jungwon
spends most of his time preventing
unnecessary chaos. Unfortunately,
one impulsive debt collection carried
out without his knowledge is about
to leave him with far more
than paperwork to clean up.

Lee Heeseung is Enhypen's
second-in-command and the
member most likely to act before
thinking. Decisive to a fault,
Heeseung firmly believes confidence
can solve almost anything.
Unfortunately, confidence is also
what convinced him kidnapping
someone's daughter was an
excellent backup plan.

Park Jay likes to think he's
the voice of reason. The problem
is, he never actually leaves
when things inevitably go wrong.
Armed with sarcasm and a rapidly
deteriorating amount of patience,
Jay has accepted that his life
consists of watching terrible
decisions unfold in real time.

Sim Jake has never let a lack
of preparation stop him from
participating. Optimistic,
impulsive, and fueled almost entirely
by vibes, Jake believes every
impossible situation can be fixed
with enough enthusiasm.
Statistics suggest otherwise.

Kim Sunoo believes first
impressions matter, even when
committing crimes. Friendly,
charming, and surprisingly
concerned about etiquette, he's
the first to offer snacks, apologize
for inconveniences, or remind
everyone to say "please."
Unfortunately, none of those things
make kidnapping someone any less illegal.

Park Sunghoon spends most
of his time silently observing the
chaos around him. He rarely
volunteers ideas, rarely starts
arguments, and somehow still
ends up participating in every
terrible decision. At this point,
even he's not sure why.

Nishimura Riki, better know as Ni-ki,
is the youngest member of Enhypen,
though you'd never know it by
the way he carries himself. Armed
with endless confidence and
exactly zero hesitation, Ni-ki
approaches every operation like
he's already won before it
even begins. His ideas are bold,
ambitious, and almost never fully
thought through, but that has
never once stopped him from
suggesting another.

authors note

Everyone plays themselves, just an
alternate universe version

"Heeseung isn't in the group
anymore. Why is he here?"
Bite me. It's my book

Why Haewon? Idk, I like her.
That's why.

Also I'm sure her father is
a lovely man. In this book,
obviously he's addicted to
gambling. It'll be alright.

This book is somewhere
in between a mock book
and just plain comedy

If you're looking for
an accurate portrayal of
organized crime,
you've come to the wrong place
