Mingwa has created the most sought-after series in the KBL collection, which is eagerly awaited.

To mark the release of BJ Alex in physical form in France, Mingwa is invited to Y/CON 11!

In partnership with KBL and KBOOKS, Mingwa is coming to France and more specifically to Y/CON to present the first volume of their bestselling series featuring the tumultuous relationship between a camboy, BJ Alex, and one of his most loyal subscribers, Dong-gyun. We’ll let you find out all about it on 15 and 16 November…

BJ Alex is Lezhin’s star BL webtoon, and the series has been in the publisher’s top 5 of all genres for a long time.

Donggyun is a big fan and loyal subscriber of BJ Alex, the most popular gay cam boy on the net. On a night out with his university mates, Dong-gyu passes out drunk. He is taken home by Ahh Jiwon, the student president, on whom he vomits. As Ahn Jiwon takes off his shirt to change, Dong-gyun discovers a birthmark which he immediately recognises as BJ Alex’s!
