After 126 chapters and concluding this season we have reached the time skip! I mean don't get me wrong I love young Leo and daddy Phileo moments but the plot has to move on at some point...Also the time skip won't be that much, I think Leo will be around 12 y.o. there and we finally got a glimpse of og FL here!! She is the much awaited step mommy of Leo and the wife of our hotty Phileo~ I heard that she will adore Leo a lot and I am excited for the new family dynamics that will follow!
Do we have any news from the manhwa artist? Will they adapt the 3rd novel as well? I really hope they do...
After catching up to Debut or Die I am so glad to find this manhwa! They share some similarities yet carry on their own unique flavor!
This idol reincarnation plotline is lots of fun since it combines two of my fave manhwa genre! ><
That cliffhanger ending it's too much for my heart!! Hopefully Jaemin won't be too hard on our woohyung and their dating era starts on season 2 (▰˘◡˘▰)
As for their idol journey it was truly touching to see them struggle from a nugu group from small agency all the way to A list rookie group who got their first win!! As a kpop fan who has stanned such groups it really does feel rewarding to watch them fly higher and higher every comeback!!
I also like how they showed their agency's CEO and how money hungry he can be and they don't listen to their artists opinions at times!! Companies usually only see them as cows they can milk to make a fortune it's upsetting!!
And love how they showed the fan culture too and the fan forums/accounts throughout the manhwa were entertaining to read and truly felt like real convos lmao
Anyway I believe next season will be even more exciting to read for sure (≧∀≦)
Honestly, I really hope the ML ends up being Daejun, and they finally find happiness together this time. The members of Sihyeon's group might be kind, but they don’t deserve him. As much as I’m glad to see them getting closer and creating happy memories as a group, I can’t shake this feeling
What really stands out to me is how Sihyeon was there for them when they needed someone in the past, but none of them realized Sihyeon’s cries for help before the accident. If anything, they seemed to distance themselves and avoid dealing with the issue, even though they knew about his odd behavior. It’s heartbreaking to think about.
His CEO was also aware of Sihyeon’s mental health struggles and was even implied to know about the sponsors, but did nothing to help him out of it. Instead, they kept him in the group, to stay active without offering him a break or even informing his manager. Sadly, it’s a pattern we’ve seen in real life too. To them, artists are assets first and humans second.
The only reason things are better now is because of Hajin’s new approach to life. In the end, no one was able to save Sihyeon, but I really hope Hajin can help him achieve the things he might have wanted before everything fell apart.I also want to emphasize that Hajin deserves this second chance too. Despite going through his own tough experiences, he never stopped clinging to life. Being able to break free from his past and start fresh now is something he truly deserves too.
His psychotic side has rubbed off on her and awakened her own it seems...They are truly made for each other...Honestly I am not against toxic plotlines as long as they are done right and make sense to the end! Which i believe is the case here, since ML did not suddenly have any big of a "transformation" thought out the story and with FL there were foreshadowing signs...Overall they both got obsessed with one another and ML was one piece of a manipulative bastard especially in the beginning...But as long as they have finally both found peace with one another and their happy ending who am I to interapt lol
Btw her younger sister seems to have found quite her match as well and like FL saying both couples give off similar vibes hit quite the spot...
All in all I am excited for the baby chapters if there will be any and for some more relaxing chapters in general after all that we had to read.
Big thank you for the update and the good quality of the translation! Btw this chapter ended on such a cliffhanger (though I already know they will make it based on raws) cannot wait for the next one ><
That's a nice start and I am so thankful to the uploader for the better translation cause there are currently 2 ver. of this manhwa listed in mangago.
Cannot wait to see how the future chapters will play out and how their relationship will evolve!
As for the art style it's not that bad just a bit unique with a bit more emphasis on the Korean beauty standards. Big eyes with aegyosal, plump gradient lips etc.
So far I am LOVING this!! It really reminded me of a fave BL of mine " The beast must die"!! There are some issues with the translations tho here and there and I had to hop around on different sites to piece the better versions together but it's all worth it!! Btw so far both blonde and black hair dudes are suspicious but I can't help but fall more for the black haired guy...His stares make me melt ><
But according to spoilers I saw on yt shorts it seems that blonde is the ML??
Lastly does anyone have any recs of manhwa like this?? Be it Straight or BL I don't mind!! I just want to find more with similar vibes and plot!!
I saw a YouTube Short and they already have a cute little baby there TT So that means we are way behind the raws I guess...Is there no one continuing this?
Time to re-read the new chapters and wait for updates!! Btw the art did change a bit but it's not as tragic as some made it sound! Also it's been years so maybe the artist hasn't yet fully found their style back? Either way I am happy this is here again and the plot hasn't lost its engagement! It's still as interesting as the previous season~
It had a great start for sure and even gave me "My Dear Aster" vibes (like aesthetically not necessarily the trope) but the more I read the more frustrated I got by the misunderstandings that could have been solved way sooner and spared us from some heartache! Other than that it was a solid read with a rollercoaster of emotions! I only wish the artist would give us more happy chapters and side stories...Their happy couple time was too short compared to the hardships and break up...
I honestly liked this manhwa cause it served nothing more or less of what it promised...It's not your typical romance or even anything close to that! In the times of war, love becomes a luxury...So if you are prepared to witness the cruelty of war, the military and the roller coaster way to survival of our FL you are welcome to join!
The FL in my eyes is not a weakling as some others have mentioned but just how your average young girl would react when faced with such cruelty...She was just naive enough to not realize what she was getting herself into...And her "love" for ML is also reasonable psychologically...When pushed to extremes, one will clinch to any warmth and hope they can get to stay sane...And finally the big finale twist that explained the blank parts about the ML...To think that the double agent was not Sasha but HIM and that's the reason he spared her (or even this was already planned and instructed from their bosses) and eventually developed feelings he never thought could ever bloom in his heart was a nice touch to this! In the end those feelings they both felt were unplanned but geniune!
Manhwa and Manhua have the tendency to be long unlike most manga which makes it hard for one to stay engaged to the end & for the story's quality to not drop either. However this is one of those rare exceptions that manage to make it! The leads' character growth, the whole storyline and ending were truly perfect! And the art was another level as well!
There always gotta be more than one layers to these og Female Leads...She is another White lotus bitch with rotten heart...even in the 1st life I guess she manipulated our girl...Honestly Belze was never bad...She was just too naive and easily manipulated in her first life but at least now she is well trained so she will notice early on! Btw ML seems to have also come back... Maybe because of her heart being with both of them when dying back then...
Lost in the world of fiction, where reality takes a backseat and imagination runs wild. Always on the lookout for heartfelt stories and characters to root for.
I remember how much invested I was in this 4-3 years ago wishing someone would update it! Thank you uploader nim for finally making this a reality!! I can't even remember the plot anymore honestly, so I will probably have to re-read it all from the start but the longing is still pretty evident in me!! So I am very grateful for someone picking this up again ><
The first volume came out and was completed since last year (that's when this was set to "complete") but now that it got a 2nd volume this year it's become invalid....Hope someone could change the settings back to ongoing since it's already been months since vol2 started...
"I feel bad for her first husband, he deserves better!!" bla bla
Feel bad for him? As if Aster's mother didn't HELP him to get the best ending he could ever wish for on the 2nd timeline...
And about the 1st timeline think about it...He already had another woman in his heart who he supposedly cared dearly for but he was weak hearted enough that he couldn't even protect her and their child (she was pregnant) from his mother...Which was what made them break up & his mother have the girl abord the baby...After that he had a marriage of convinience with Aster's mother...He was someone with an inferiority complex himself which was mentioned...Not just FL deciding on her own to wear flats...So it goes both ways...Also y'all saying he was nice to her but his mother still kept tormenting her and getting in their family matters but he never took sides and tried to "stay neutral" which I believe is enough reason to create issues...Even in today's society this occurs and causes rifts in marriages let alone back then...The fact that Aster their own child hated how her mother was treated while growing up, to the point of using magic to make her go back in time and give her a 2nd chance says a lot idk what to tell you...Plus we never got too much details about their marriage life anyway...Sure compared to other isekai Manhwa he is far from a villain, like FL said he never drunk, used violence etc. but these instances they had in their relationship, though not painful enough they can still end up killing a marriage slowly...In the end they both were wed out of convinience, treated eo with respect while trying to run a family even with their shortcomings... But here is the thing...When you love someone you can often oversee them and easily try and mend the relationship...Yet without it a wedding is doomed to fail like it did!! So instead of trying to point the blame on either of them just try to see both sides and their flaws... This is one of the things I LOVED about this Manhwa!! It's raw and authentic feel!!
