Books for my Fimgirls 📖 #MadeMyNight #민음사

The Korean context

What happened

LE SSERAFIM's five members exchanged books with personal notes in a segment tagged to 민음사 (Minumsa), a major Korean publisher. Sakura picked 최진영 (Choi Jin-young)'s 해가 지는 곳으로 (Haega Jineun Goseuro, To Where the Sun Sets) for Chaewon, Chaewon chose Banana Yoshimoto's 바다의 뚜껑 (Bada-ui Ttukkeong, The Lid of the Sea) for Yunjin, and Yunjin gave Eunchae 오만과 편견 (Oman-gwa Pyeongyeon, Pride and Prejudice).

More context

Why Koreans care

The 민음사 (Minumsa) tag matters: it's one of Korea's most established literary publishers, best known for its color-coded 세계문학전집 (Segye Munhak Jeonjip, World Literature Classics series) that many Koreans read growing up in school. Idol content explicitly tagging a specific publisher like this is unusual for a casual member-to-member gift video, and reads as a tie-in or promotional partnership rather than a spontaneous moment — part of a broader pattern of Korean entertainment agencies pairing idols with publishers to nudge young fans toward reading.

In the Korean comments

Majority: several commenters zeroed in on a member's visible reaction to receiving the thickest book — one top comment reads "은채 책 두께보더니 눈 엄청돌리는데 나도 놀랐다" (Eunchae-ga chaek dukkeleul boteoni nun eomcheong dollineunde nado nollatda, "The moment Eunchae saw how thick the book was, her eyes went wide — I was surprised too"), with others describing the other members visibly trying not to laugh at her reaction. Minority: a smaller set of commenters took the content at face value as reading inspiration, e.g. "오 이런거 좋다! 나도 책 읽어야지" (O ireongeo joha! Nado chaek ilgeoyaji, "Oh, I like this! I should read books too"). Fandom: bias-specific commenters framed it as more fuel for imitating their favorite member, e.g. "항상 윤진이 책 손민수하는데 읽을 거 또 생겼네" (Hangsang Yunjin-i chaek sonminsu-haneunde ilgeul geo tto saenggyeonne, "I always copy Yunjin's book picks — now I've got another one to read").

What the words mean

A foreign viewer reading the comment about "손민수 (Sonminsu-hada, to compulsively copy someone you admire)" could mistake it for a reference to an actual third person joining the conversation. It's actually Korean fan slang — borrowed from a webtoon character famous for mimicking someone she idolized — for buying or doing exactly what your favorite idol does, here meaning the commenter buys every book Yunjin picks.
