Emily159's manga / #Idol(10)

All couples were amazing. Seriously. All three of them (they mostly focused on the first pairing thankfully. The others are literally sides that were kinda just thrown in there which was perfect for me since I like to stop reading once the main couple disappears). I knew the grandma was awful. She just gave me a bad vibe. Love the grandpa. Kinda a tsundere. All characters are hot af. Really enjoyed this. Read: Monday, January 9th, 2023.

Read??? Added: Wednesday, October 11th, 2023. Mc2 was a POS at first. Mc2 liked mc4, but mc4 was dating mc3. Mc3 is mc1’s cousin, but mc2 believed that mc3 broke up with mc4 bc he was cheating on mc3 with mc1. Mc2 decides he wants revenge and purposefully approaches mc1 and makes mc1 fall for him. He wants mc1 to break it off with mc3 so mc3 will be in despair. Thinks mc3 deserves it for cheating on mc4. Mc2 ends up falling for mc1, but then it’s outed that mc2 approached mc1 for those bad reasons and mc1 breaks up with him (s2 episode 12 I believe). They probably get back together in s2 episode 17-18. It was sad but I also felt like mc2 deserved it in the beginning. Then I just felt sad cuz mc1 and mc2 obviously liked each other but mc1 didn’t want to get swayed if mc2 was faking it again so he kept avoiding mc2. Honestly, I think this had a bit too much smut. I would’ve liked to see more of the idol side of things. It was just in the background tbh. And now that I think about it, I don’t even think we met 2 of mc2’s idol group members at all lol. There’s supposedly four in total (was 5 but mc4 left the group) but all we met was mc2 and mc3. Would’ve liked to see more of mc3 being protective over mc1, considering they’re cousins. We only got a bit of that and then a bit of mc2 being protective over mc1 (which I wanted more of too). I loved the side story where mc2 was on stage and then came home in the outfit he wore on stage cuz he knew mc1 found it hot. Honestly if I was mc1 I would’ve died being that close to my idol and especially that attractive of one as well. And the idol flirted too! I woulda died. Really want more idol stories now or famous stories where mc1 is just a normal person or smth. Really glad I asked Lexi if this was good. Read: Monday, October 30th, 2023.

This was actually really good but also painful. First time they sleep together (around chapters 10-15 I think?) mc2 is drunk and seduces mc1. Mc2 (Han-ah) is acting all cuddly with mc1 (Gangju) especially when he (Han-ah) is just about to fall asleep. Which is when he has tears going down his face and he repeats the name Joonyoung (the name of his ex who died cuz he failed to protect him). They end up being fuck buddies. Around chapter 30 or so, Gangju confesses his feelings for Han-ah. Han-ah has a flashback of Joonyoung dying so he lies and says he doesn’t like him that way. Gangju gives him numerous chances to change his mind but Han-ah ruins them every time. Meanwhile, Gangju’s first love (unrequited) comes back and stirs up the pot. Keeps trying to sleep with Gangju. After Han-ah rejects Gangju again in chapter 33(?), Gangju runs into Dokjun and gets invited to sleep with him again. Gangju notices mc2 had appeared and makes out with Dokjun before telling him he’ll meet him where he’s staying so they can sleep together. Gangju ends up handcuffed with all limbs to the bed after being drugged by Dokjun and he’s about to be raped before Han-ah shows up with Saechan (also a security guy). Chapter 35 ends with Han-ah by Gangju’s bedside and the news saying Dokjun got arrested for possessing around 300 doses of drugs. Updates Mondays. Read: Monday, February 12th, 2024.

Waiting for more chapters. 34 ends on a massive cliffhanger. Added: Wednesday, April 3rd, 2024.

Read this instead of sleeping. Can't tell if I regret staying up for it. We'll see when I wake up (I have 3 hours till I have to get up). Seriously enjoyed this. Do Seohan (mc), accept it. You're cute, not sexy. I keep getting some BL undertones which makes me sad cuz it's not but I do like the actress who's the MC of the show. Love mc's relationship with others and I lovedddd how he blackmailed Lee Dohyuk (fellow show participant) into being nice to Kang Siwoo (also a participant). Serves him right for acting all haughty when he had such a shitty skeleton in his closet. Looking forward to seeing more of mc's older brother (a producer for the show I believe). He disapproves of mc becoming an idol but doesn't hinder him either. Secretly supports him. Damn attractive. Now *he* could qualify as sexy 100%. Read: Monday, May 20th, 2024.
