Mina Finch is the author of the K-Pop Academy series of children’s fantasy adventures, published in the UK by Arcade. The series combines K-pop performance and training with supernatural threats and follows a group of young performers at a specialist academy.
The series begins with K-Pop Academy: The Stage of Shadows, published in January 2026. Twelve-year-old Hana Kim earns a scholarship to a prestigious K-pop training school in Seoul, where she encounters shadowy demons that feed on students’ fears of failure. The book is followed by The Cursed Spotlight, The Crystal Beat, Guardians’ Glow and Tiger’s Eye.
The sixth book, K-Pop Academy: Song of Tomorrow, brings Hana and her friends towards graduation as the academy faces another supernatural threat. Arcade is scheduled to publish the UK paperback on 27 August 2026.
