Bright doesn’t ask its audience to read between the lines, it seems to be the story of Jessica being kicked out of Girl’s Generation. With Jessica’s sequel, Bright, I went into the book hesitantly expecting more of the sleuthing required to tie the story to the real-world events that Jessica experienced, but was pleasantly surprised to find the story people had hoped for all along. This initially created a lot of buzz with people wondering if this would be the tell-all of her infamous Girl’s Generation departure, but fans seemed disappointed in the focus on Rachel Kim’s trainee era and the general self-insert fanfiction writing quality. Jessica Jung described her first book Shine as an Easter egg hunt, promising details of the kpop industry and her own experiences hidden among the YA-tropes of her protagonist Rachel Kim’s professional and romantic pursuits.
