forever, and always by imwinner

“Hey,” Jimin pinches her cheek, making her yelp. “Don’t think you can get away from me in this lifetime, or the next, or the next.” She pulls out her phone, smiling. “I need you with me forever so you’ll always play with me.”

what's the deal with jimin and minjeong? by minminda

Joohyun has never been one to gossip, especially about her students. But why were her coworkers so obsessed with Jimin and Minjeong?

there's no need to be brave by panyxed

Jimin closes her eyes.

Minjeong doesn’t do anything but leave a butterfly of a kiss on the tip of Jimin’s nose.

CANON DIVERGENT:

• based on aespa's trainee/idol experiences, but not true to this reality and diverges from current events)

to think it'd still be you (of course it'd still be you) by scarletstring

Jimin is many things: a friend, a swimmer, a childhood crush, and not very touchy. Except Jimin doesn’t seem like herself — not really. Lately she’s been giving Minjeong heart attacks every time her arm finds a spot around her waist. Or her shoulders. Or her hips. Like it's the most natural thing to do.

Minjeong swears Jimin was fine just yesterday. Despite the headaches.

So why does it feel like she doesn’t know Jimin anymore?

Before debut, Minjeong voted Jimin out of the group. Now she faces the consequences of her decisions.

in silence, after by ClosedOrbits (M)

It starts like a bad joke: Jimin is hungover when her flight lands at Incheon Airport for an SM TOWN reunion.

However, this time the punchline is that Jimin has killed a man.

The debut plans for aespa fall through at the last minute. Minjeong leaves; Jimin doesn’t. Jimin never really forgives her for that.

crave your attention (you're all i want) by minminda

“It isn’t. I promise you Minjeong, one day, you’ll find someone that will make your heart race, make you so giddy that you don’t know what to do with yourself, make you feel all that magic you see in the movies.”

A giggle escapes Minjeong, shocked by how passionate Jimin was about the topic.

“Wow unnie, you sound like you’re speaking from experience.”

“No, not from experience, but something close to it.”

Minjeong debuts. Jimin doesn't.

are you scared yet, laika? by idolsona

Minjeong is debuting solo. Supposedly, there’s no bad blood between them. Their girl group disbanded; they had run their course together but stayed close as friends.

This is the bite-sized version of a humongous lie that lies between them.

Celebrity by minjeongminion

Kim Minjeong's quiet high school life takes a turn when Karina, a rising star idol and member of the popular girl group aespa, transfers to her school. The two get to know each other as classmates, friends, and maybe something more.

minjeong has a one night stand, and it goes a little too well, but she doesn’t really expect to see jimin again. she definitely doesn’t expect to see jimin introducing herself onstage as aespa’s karina.

beneath the glitter we find us by ClosedOrbits

Minjeong is totally cool with the fact that Jimin passed idol auditions years ago and she didn't.

Minjeong is so cool with this fact, that it certainly doesn't drive her insane when the said now-former idol appears to be sitting in the same classroom with her.

• tags: former-idol jimin x student minjeong, college au, minjeong is jealous of jimin and then falls in love without realizing it, jimin likes minjeong, but mj is oblivious

don't blink by moonrise31

Minjeong thinks the worst moment of her entire fansite career has to be now: after she's spilled coffee all over Ningning's manager, who has hated her since day one.

Jimin, meanwhile, is left in the coffee shop confused, coat dripping, and wondering what she's done to make Ningning's biggest fansite despise her so much.

dive into you by wintevon (evokvr)

It’s simple, really. Jimin just happened to find the boyish, silly woman behind the ice cream counter quite attractive while Minjeong just wanted to prove a point to her coworkers.

But the thing is… Jimin was known to the world as aespa's Karina and Minjeong happened to live under the world's biggest rock.

Yes No Maybe by numot94 (futureplans)

College student and NCT fan Kim Minjeong finds herself in possession of her bias’s phone number. NCT manager Yu Jimin finds herself doing damage control for the group’s playboy maknae. Refusing to sign an NDA can be a meet-cute, right?

we could call it even by rokkuhato

Aeri snaps her fingers as she tries to recall a word, “You know that thing they call wistful almost? The couple people take one glance at and think, oh, it’s like that. They’re in love, and everyone can see it except for them. I think you guys are that couple.”

Or the one where Minjeong comes home.
