Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.In the early days of my debut as an idol, due to my pretty face, I had to play the role of a ‘bottom’ in the coupling fans had pushed.
But because I resented such an image, I attempted to change it by growing out a beard, tanning, and even packing on muscles.
As a result of my transformation, an irreversible loss of fandom began…
Shocked by my appearance from cute to muscular, fans stopped their fanaticism one by one, and as if on queue, other members of our group, U-PITE, acted similarly foolish one after another as the group broke down.
Five years later, I spend my days in regret having not accepted my role as a ‘bottom’ and wishing if I could go back to the past, I would be exactly what fans had wanted me to be.
Then one day, as I had wished, I inexplicably returned to my early debut days…
Now all I wished for was happiness! As such, I had vowed to become the ‘bottom’ of U-PITE in earnest and walk only on the path of success.
However, a problem had arisen. The other members seemed to have fallen for my ‘bottom’ act.

so it is said that their company is not a big company. The ceo likes MC, he doesn't do anything different from other ML (kiss, cherishing MC). But his ceo position makes me a little bit uncomfortable
No, there's no final ML. It ended harem but still in a little bit of rivalry situation, that's why I don't expect author ends it in that situation.
The writing style is at a decent average level, there aren't weird POV shifts or switching tenses, it's pretty standard first-person-view with the right amount of introspection and descriptive content. For me the whole bottom-business was handled well enough, MC consciously decides to go through with it and gives it his all, he's naive and thoughtless, which leads to the MLs misunderstanding his intentions.
He wanted to act his role well and ended up overdoing it, his awareness just isn't great and his IQ is lacking in the face of his ambitions.
Being an idol is a job, keeping his image part of said job, no one expected from him to actually be gay, he did that all by himself, so I don't see any problem with it. What annoys me is, that too many chapters are wasted on online comments.
An entertainment story can be written without this kind of lazy word-count cheating, many novels have done so, it's exhausting to have to read over these endless passages that add very little to the story, if anything at all. Characterisation is fine, relationships are fine, there's nothing to be super dissatisfied with if you are into idol-stories because most of it is in fact just about being an idol, fan reception, marketing yourself, etc. That's really my main point, if you don't like idols/K-pop then you likely won't enjoy this novel, I don't give a damn about either and would have dropped this much sooner if the overall quality would have been as low as most KH novels.
MC is.. Slighty dumb but he can covers it with money in the past, not sure about current but I guess the plot will help somehow.
