Really have high hopes for this story and with the team translating this (Centinni) also translating "Player who returned 10, 000 years later", I'm certain it'll be amazing.

Music-esque novels from Korea, in general, are written in a way that makes sense. How can you hear something that is written? It's physically impossible, yet somehow, these authors from Korea does a great job with it. God's Song, Top Management, Genius of a Performing Arts High, God of Music and etc (novels known within "English translations") are evidence of this masterful eloquence... more>> and translations.

As for the story itself, it's interesting and gives a fresh take away from the modern korean music. <<less

The translation was pretty good and the story development is also well. The only problem I have with the story is the old timeline. The book starts out with the MC growing up in North Korea I think. Due to the war they evacuated south and got split with some of their family. Im not Korean so I dont know the history of the nation, but I remember the war started a couple decades ago so when I looked it up, its 1950 while NK became a nation at 1945.... more>> Another signifying thing of the timeline is that the mother constantly listens to Elvis and another singer, which is also a couple of decades ago. I dont mind a book in the past like this, but with the cover image showing a modern place and a modern hairstyle/clothing, I was totally expecting a modern world. Also the 60s/70s r too many years ago. Not only am I not Korean, but it was a couple of decades before I was born so I honestly dont know any famous people other than Elvis, not to mention songs ortm things in Korea. I ended up dropping this due to the timeline <<less

I really like the story development with a fantasy setting involving demons that grant blessings to their chosen child which is the MC. They granted him looks, a talent for music, and brains in return Geon will collect holy power through music and make the people who would hear it happy.

The translator (s) of this novel is/are doing a great job. I hope that they will push through this story.

Summary: Latter half of the translation from Hollywood Novels is very bad AI translation without edits/QC

I enjoyed reading the novel as it's a a very easy read without investing too much into it, however the translations from the current translator is just bad.

Ive subbed to their patron wanting to read more but the translations were just getting more and more horrible, sentences can't even decide if Geon is female or male level of bad.

I hope that in the future someone else can pick this novel up instead so that people... more>> can enjoy the novel as it is. <<less

this is great and awesome story, the content is easy to understand. But it’s feel like a journey, there was none main antagonist. It’s just the journey of the man to become OP. I feel like he was extremely lucky, OP, doesn’t know hardship so sometimes it doesn’t make sense.

Spoiler

he was extremely handsome even if he can’t sing he can just be a model. He can compose a song, sing every genre (pop, blues, rock, opera) , he can act in a opera theater. Oh f*ck I think maybe he is a son of the world because the world centered around him

[collapse]

well but that’s good story I like read it. The MC is too good-natured, not naive but.. Even when

Spoiler

korean company threatened him with scandal with one of the girlband member and exchange to collab his new album, he still forgive them. If it were me I will reveal the evidence that the k-company using his reputation to make scandal so the company will bankrupt. Basically in this arc, MC already high in the sky, every song or thing he creates will be on top charts

I’m really liking the premise so far since I’m a big fan of entertainment novels but the timeline in this novel is confusing me a lot? Like the mother of the main character was born during the Korean war so realistically the timeline in the novel by chapter 44 should be somewhere between 1980-1990 but everyone already has smartphones and ipads? Even social media is talked about in the story? I’m used to novels being weird but usually there’s an explanation (even if its brief) if the world in the... more>> novel is more advanced than the real world.
Spoiler

maybe the world is advanced because of the interference of angels and demons? Idk?

If you compare the original translation to the new translation, there are certain details added to the new translation that would lead one to believe that the story has to take place where the MC is born in 1975. I don't believe that is the case. It seems to me, that the story must take place when the MC is born somewhere in the early 90s. Otherwise the technology and the music mentioned by the MC wouldn't be possible.

In general the translation is a bit sloppy and plenty of times... more>> it can be confusing determining who is talking. The story seems to be about the plot of a demon from hell and how his blessings affect the MC Geon and his journey as a musician/media star. As far as I've read, there doesn't seem to be too much to praise in terms of plot or direction. The story is okay, but wants to establish how amazing and unique the MC is by having him receive gifts from demons and angels and even meeting famous musicians in his dreams. <<less
