Nice depiction of scenes. I can imagine what's happening because of clear writing. I just hope that the MC face some challenges because everything happens in favour to MC. Like I can see him achieving his goal already becoming global star. He get what he wants and doesn't face any setback at all. I just wish MC may atleast got some rival. You know someone who's really talented and work his/her way up. Anyway, I also hope for fast release.
Well it's been a while this is one of my favrt Korean novels and i have already read the Korean translation,most of it.
It was wonderful,a good novel maybe the only downside is that it is too smooth but it is enjoyable
It was a book that I both enjoyed reading and laughed a lot. It was funny how ridiculous but funny situations arose as a result of misunderstandings and the clumsy situations of the leading role. The ending could have been better, but I still had fun reading it.
The misunderstandings only seem to grow with time and I love that for this story. None of them are too major but just makes the novel more entertaining to read. Some of the snip bits of scenes that are described are also especially well done, I want to watch them as a real show.
The only downside as mentioned by the previous reviews is just how smoothly Woojin is making his way to major milestones in his acting career. It's just a bit too easy and any setbacks are promptly resolved within a couple of chapters.
Overall, this was an extremely entertaining light read and I highly recommend it.
An enjoyable read all the way through. Though the ending felt very rushed with the oscars being a final goal even though he can definitely do more with it as a stepping stone. The final segments crammed alot in and his relationship with Cara could have been explored more. Other than that there isn't much to complain about we saw the results of the works he finished and we get to see through the final script that he lives a happy life. 9.5/10
I think this novel is really good, exceptional in-fact, for something that seems like popcorn fiction.
The main character never loses, but maintains his stable character throughout the entire book. This isn't a story about the struggle of an actor, it's the dominance of an ordinary individual with extraordinary powers.
The filming of the movies get really good and though later on they are skimmed over more because the movies he participates in are more well-known, they are the highlight of the novel.
Some parts like the repetition of certain phrases: "his physique is surprisingly good!", "doesn't he look so much better in real life?", etc can catch your attention, I think the book is better read in a series of sprints over time.
Enjoy an arc or two and come back when you're ready to read more. It's complete, You're not missing out on anything by rushing it.
I think if the author had more experience while writing it could've been elevated to a new tier, however the writing improves over time. Even if it's not by a huge amount.
The romance included is miniscule. I think the characters dated for 20 chapters MAX before the book ends.
I hope you at least give the novel a try. It's nice to read something other than nonstop action slop all the time.
Very enjoyable read . It makes no sense - I mean his power makes it so he is a god tier actor and whoever sees him just has to recruit him that's it . Nothing else but still it's weirdly enjoyable . I've read another novel of this genre "From thug to Idol " but comparatively this is much better . Give it a try for 60-70 chapters and if you don't like it you never will , if you do you'll be hooked .
8/10 .
A very easy, very fun, very light hearted reading session this is. I enjoyed this from start to finish. I enjoyed Kang Woojin's journey, all the misunderstandings, all the actings. Yeah, this one is good.
Alright, so the author should be from a random small company in korea, probably a "design" company... and the escapism offered in this story is... to suddenly have the confidence to quit the job that you've hated, but haven't been able to for 4 years. And also the fear of what the future holds in case he quits, is fixed by the acting system thingie. Author probably has interest in acting then.
Hmm, it's... not for me. I'm not working yet, so I can't empathize that much with the hating on the company u work in. And acting... not interested. But the premise is very new to me, so I might read it if it gets popular.
Compatibility score: 2/5
5: Perfectly fits what I want rn.
4: Not really what I'm looking for, but it seems good so I'll read.
3: Hmm... will try reading cuz it's popular.
2: Will probably read if I suddenly have infinite time.
1: No.
Since this compatibility rating system of mine is highly personal, any novel I review shall receive a 5-star from me. It deserves at least that cuz the title and poster art caught my attention.
Reading this was such a light read and how smooth MCs journey is through stardom as an actor. I definitely enjoyed reading it. As the misunderstanding thickens, so is the anticipation of how this affects MCs surroundings as things go through which would definitely keep you up to read. But of course, its downsides are how things aren't toppled over by contradictions or any arising problems, it could feel repetitive since MC wins in the end but at the same time I'd come back to it. Just take a break and come back to it for a light read.
