lilithespark's manga / #Entertainment industry(42)

Pretty good. I’ve read the novel for this, and it’s kind of mid, but I don’t mind a good idol manhwa! Plus, the art is really nice so far. Plot’s kind of lacking.

This was actually so good? The author wrote the idol duo trope so well! I loved how the facets of the entertainment industry were integrated with their love for each other. Especially that grave proclamation of wanting to stay with the other for eternity… Relatively unique in that the lead is Korean while the MC is Japanese. The only part I didn’t like was the ML forcing himself on the MC. The consent was very dubious there, and it just felt uncomfortable to read…. I wish the author hadn’t resorted to using that overused plot point. There were plenty of other ways to handle the conflict… Besides that, everything else was awesome in my book, especially the art.

27 I mean, I like it. I like how the MC’s a screenwriter. He’s pretty OP. He has so many abilities: writing ability, casting ability, etc.

45 Honestly, as a novel reader, this manhwa adaptation feels redundant. The art is mid, and I just have to say I’m quite disappointed. This is like a basic outline of what the story actually is. All the details about the MC’s acting get lost in this adaptation. The novel does a much better job at describing the visceral emotions and character he expresses through acting. It just feels so lacking and bland. To top it all off, they did him so dirty like why is he uglyyyy BUT hey this is still an alright manhwa. just pales in comparison to the novel

It’s kind of ironic how the pop star ML WANTS to be exposed but paparazzo MC just won’t do it lol. anyway, the characters are dynamic, especially the ML. almost feels like a coming of age story when the ml realizes he still wants to be an idol. like there’s an actual character arc?! yes pls. it’s cute, fluffy, smutty— actually really good read. i like how they’ve known each other ever since high school. def makes the tone lighter ^^

Ugh they’re both so stupid. Misunderstandings… The MC is especially dense. But it somehow works? They really love each other, and this is fluffy. Got to know some new things about local idols, which is cool. Mostly funny, decent read. Smut is good. Ex kinda ruins it
