Is it a bit like the A-list famous-for-being-famous American stars kind of thing?
Kind of, except these guys are very hardworking. It's sort of expected that everyone be able to do most of the following: singing, dancing, acrobatics, hosting radio shows, hosting TV shows, acting (dramas, stage, movies). As an added bonus, you may get: sports, rap, beatboxing, playing instruments, painting, comedy routines and anything else that women between the ages of about 6 and 60 might find appealing. (There are male fans too, but their number is much, much smaller!)
He's so overwhelmingly narcissistic that for him to show anything other than friendly interest in anyone else is pretty well OOC.
True. He is blatantly in love with himself - I wonder if he's ever considered having himself cloned? Seishiro and Miroku between them can probably design and build the necessary technology...
Is he just really ticklish there or something?
There is a subbed version, but the subbing group do not like their work being put up on streaming sites or I'd have linked you to one. Jin says that he really hates being touched there, that it's a weak point and he doesn't know why. If I recall correctly, there's a clip from a few years back when he was hogging the camera and one of the other guys in the group touched his collarbone...and he screamed like a little girl. (Jin used to have this very shrill, high-pitched scream, but I don't know if he can do it anymore.) They go after it at concerts, too.
I'll casually mention that I'm very very ticklish and then it gets used against me.
*stores information for future use* I, too, am very ticklish, which is most unfortunate as I seem to get frisked at airports a lot these days and I stand there giggling helplessly while some stern-faced woman pats me down with suspicion in her eyes. It's a miracle I haven't been detained as a terrorist yet.
I apologise for not having gotten to your second chapter yet - it's been a busy couple of nights for me! I'll read and review this weekend, though.
