INFINITE'S L's Face Appears On A Filipino Romance Novel Cover

Many fans write fanfiction, but one romance novel takes it to a new level by putting INFINITE's L on the cover.

One of INFINITE's fan accounts, InfiniteUpdates, tweeted a picture of a Tagalog romance novel on May 14. The picture showed a book called Eladia, Come Home that had a picture of a couple lying in bed together cuddling. The resemblance to INFINITE's L is impossible to deny.

L is INFINITE's visual member and one of the group's most popular members. He also is an actor, and appeared in 2013's hit drama, The Master's Sun. L also acted in Shut Up Flower Boy Band and this year's Cunning Single Lady.  

The book, written under the pseudonym Camille, is a Filipino romance pocketbook published by Precious Hearts Romances. Camille's real name is Armine Rhea Mendoza, and she is one of the most popular and prolific Tagalog romance writers. 

Eladia, Come Home was published originally in 2008, but it seems the book was rereleased in March 2014 with a new cover featuring L. It would have been almost impossible for L to be on the original cover of the book, considering that INFINITE didn't debut until 2010.

The Precious Hearts Romances website features other books that appear to have Korean idols featured on the cover. Lee Min Ho and Lee Seung Gi are easily recognizable on the covers of two of their most recently released books.

Romance novels all over the world often feature handsome men on the covers in order to attract fans, but using celebrity's images on the cover without permission is problematic.

 It is unknown if L has any idea that his face is being used on the cover of a Tagalog romance novel.

INFINITE will be making a comeback with "Last Romeo" on May 21, and recently released a teaser video and concept images.
