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! ><
yooooo me too TAT
I wish I could forget this manga and started to read this again, its a bit hard to find manhwa like this beside acting genius and debut or die
Have y’all read An Insincere Idol’s Blank Slate or I Became the Youngest Top Idol there kinda similar
True that! I tried a few other idol manhwa with similar plot but either the art, plot or both would lack...I guess Monochrome Rumor and Not To Me, But To the Fans (this one has lighter vibe) are others I like quite a bit but they are shounen ai instead of shounen.
Oh I actually had them added on my list recently but haven't checked them yet! I will definitely give them a read! Thanks for recommending :)
I already read An Insincere Idol’s Blank Slate and it's *chef kiss* (｡•ᴗ-)✧
the regrettable part is I read this when the chapters are still only a few to me, should have hold myself until around 70
is I Became the Youngest Top Idol good??? I think the arts don't click on me, and I dunno if the story is good
yeah I started to read some idol novel when others manhwa are lacking or still continue searching new manhwa
Then u have to read the maknae has to be an idol
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/the_maknae_has_to_be_an_idol/
Its similar to debut or die, it has system, mission and someone might die if he fail the mission, but the catch was his teammates will die, not him(mc),
Holy idol is one too that’s good but more comedic. Top Star’s Talent Library too though unfortunately the art style changed. Which is unfortunate since I really liked the characters. There also is Monochrome Rumor too.
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.
No harem or poly route. They’re not needed!
I love Daejun.
Same here! I hope the manhwa artist also feels the same way.
Pretty sure they do hehe
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 would highly recommend “Mary Psycho” even though it’s still ongoing and only has a few chapters published, it got me hooked. I would also recommend “Only Hope” or “Just Twilight”. But on top of the pyramid I WILL FULL HEARTEDLY RECOMMEND “Tears on a withered Flower”.
Thank you for the recommendations!! I will be checking them out^^ I had already heard good things about Tears of a withered flower so I might binge it now!!
OMG I love that manhwan so muuuch
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?
Someone just started to! Eek so I'm guessing this chapter—when she held her stomach, she was already expecting? Glad to know they'll survive lol
Omg thanks for letting me know about the update! Yes i guess she was and I am just as glad ><
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~
Imagine the art was the opposite of what we got? Yeah, we would be dropping this manhwa in a flash. I'm glad the art style is good, even if it's sorta not like before. And, yasssh! Finally, it's back! I have aged a year waiting! (つ≧▽≦)つ
Yes that would be a disaster but thankfully it didn't so when I saw some talk about the art degrading I was a bit confused lol And yes finallyyy I aged waiting for it as well haha In the past I would come at times to see if there was an update orn not...And happy to see you here too Akira ><
*AkumaKira
Do we have any news from the manhwa artist? Will they adapt the 3rd novel as well? I really hope they do...
