Double

Ongoing | Noda ayako | 2019 released

this is way too good THE IMAGERY, THE ART… the themes. it’s very dramatic, but maybe that’s to be expected because the two leads are actors. i love takar and yujin’s characters… this author’s twsisted storytelling makes this such an experience. i love reading about actors, and this just completely takes the cake. the focal point of this is the lead’s relationship with each other… how it affects takara’s acting in particular and even his feelings for yujin. it’s masterful—the way the story is told. and their relationship doesn’t even have to be romantic

Road to Stardom

Ongoing | Seo hong | 2019 released

I finally gave this a try after a cycle of dropping and picking this up again. The beginning is a bit of a drag, which is why. Anyway, it does get better. I enjoy seeing the MC's "growth" and OPness as an actor/all round entertainer. It's relatively engaging despite his generic character. Later on, the female characters aren't that irritating like Sebin for example, though she's a typical tsundere. They actually have a sense of self. The works the MC participates in are interesting as well. His growth doesn't exactly make the most sense, but his powers make him cooler.

This Life Starts as a Child Actor

Ongoing | | 2022 released

Pretty interesting! I assume most of the story will take place with the MC being a young child, so it’ll be interesting to see how the author handles his dealings in showbiz. It is over the top,, though… I hope they time skip him to be even a little older than five years old. Anyway, the MC has struggles, so even with his camera ability, he isn’t too overpowered. Decent acting manhwa that satisfies.

Superstar From Age 0

Ongoing | | 2022 released

I like that it's a lot more fast paced than the novel! Very engaging, and the MC's character is hard not to like in that he's two-dimensional… He wasn't just good. He's also had past lives where he was the "bad guy." I love the slice of life vibes and how he incorporates his past life abilities into his acting. This has everything I looking for in an acting manhwa. Great art. The no romance (so far) is an added bonus.

Private Love My Actor

Ongoing | Nekojitaudon | 2019 released

This was so cute, albeit cliché and a little fast paced? The MC is so naive and embarrassing help. It’s a nice, light read. Might’ve been better had it had more time to expand on the leads and even the works they participated in.

Love Stage!!

Complete | Eiki Eiki,Zaou Taishi | 2010 released

I think this was a decent read. Relatively fluffy, light, and entertaining. Will always like the acting trope. The gags were part of this manga’s charm, but as always with older BL, there was the overused SA as a plot device. Some parts just feel nonsensical and obnoxiously dramatic. If this had come out today, I might not’ve read it ‘cause the execution is so lacking. Still, I enjoyed this with its silly characters. Glad the main couple (and even the side coupe) got their happy ending. This did do more than what I expected on the emotional/philosophical side (i.e. Ryouma questioning what it meant to “date a man”). Appreciated that Izumu got to top Ryouma despite being the typical “uke.” Perhaps a step in the right direction for its time but nothing mind-blowing.

Life, Once Again!

42 rly if ur looking for an acting manhwa! i also like how this feels a bit philosophical in a way. novel is also very gud

The Genius Actor’s Aura

Ongoing | | 2022 released

I’ve read the novel, and it’s relatively good. This adaptation has done really well, and I like the art. Interesting storyline. I ofc love the main character’s acting. It’s refreshing how he doesn’t act in dramas but in theater.

Chameleon wa Tenohira ni Koi wo Suru

Ongoing | RIN Teku | 2023 released

Ughhh i already love this! the art is fabulous and they're too cute. i love the pacing as well. they start off as friends and then slowly develops into something more….

From Acting Genius to Top Idol!

Ongoing | | 2022 released

Okay, I really love this. I love how it’s just about idols competing (on a survival show) and striving for the best. Their performances are depicted very well. The art is just that good. As a KPOP fan and avid reading of idol/acting manhwa, this just ticks all the boxes. Reminisce of Debut or Die. The character relationships aren’t skimped out on either. In that sense, they’re dynamic. Love the MC’s personality, but I do want to see him act more…
