Summary
Brooklyn Idol is a romantic comedy game set in the indie music capital of the world: Brooklyn, New York!
You play as Soo-jin, a music fan who once dreamed of being a pop idol... until her family moved from South Korea to South Jersey. But Soo-jin doesn't give up! She decides to make music on her own.
So she moves to Brooklyn! And, hey, the other people in her new apartment are musicians too!!! They seem like they could be really great friends... or maybe something more!!
The Characters
Soo-jin recently moved to Brooklyn to try to make it as an independent musician. Obviously, she likes music! Pretty much all of it!! And food! And people! She's more of an enthusiastic amateur than a veteran, but she just started writing a song that might be her best yet -- and the choices you make will affect how it turns out!
Kiko's a drummer. His band's label is holding a mini-festival, and his band just made THE BIG FONT for the first time ever. So he's kind of a big deal -- or at least that's what he'll tell you. But despite being pretty much a narcissist, he seems friendly, and y'know, at least he's kind of honest about having an ego?
Germaine is the sound engineer at a local do-it-yourself music venue, so she has an ear for detail. She's definitely a pessimist and a little grouchy, but she really cares about the people close to her.
Wisconsin just really likes going to concerts and knows all the local music. Just don't ask them to choose a favorite--Wisconsin is terrible at ranking things. It's all too good!
