I liked the survival show part the first 100 chapters are my favorite MC is good I like him his the type to only care about his people ig? his bandmates has clinch personalities and they were annoying at some points (except for dunjun he never annoyed me) MC is not the popular member his not even the most talented which is quiet unusual for idol genre MCs (he grows in the story and I love his charecter development as an idol)... it some times felt like his band mates... more>> are MC rather than him which also annoyed me specially everyone were like yeon hoon this yeon hoon that :/ OK WE GET IT EVERYONE IN THE BAND IS MASTER OF SMTH EXCEPT MC OK??!?!? STOP MENTIONING THAT NOW PLS ?!?!??! MC loves his members so much like so so so so much their relationship was wholesome BUT the best relationship award goes to kang hyun sung and MC !!!! loved their dynamic so much !!! and Kang Hyun sung is literally the mvp idc what u think he's GOAT !! anyways I got sad when survival show part ended cause we saw Kang Hyun sung less : ( ( ( (he's my pookie bear and I would stan him if he was a real person... anyways I feel like the story needs more focus on MC ?kinda felt like he was shadowbaned in his own story which I kinda understand since the story was from his pov and my man has nothing except his members on his head but still... 2 things I hate in web novels are 1) when side charecters are just some mere extras with no depth and it's all just about op MC 2) when side charecters are average and less interesting than MCs but get the most screen time even more than MC ! which this novel was in 2nd category for me !! tbh the most interesting side (main to me idc) charecter was Kang Hyun sung which he didn't appear much after chapter 100 (I still haven't finished the story tho I hope to see more of him later).... #let_mc_mcing_author oh oh oh before I finish let me say one part that pissed me off

Spoiler

OK Kang Hyun sung is only friend ? (Enemies?soulmate?) with MC in siren and it was one of the members birthday and kanghyun sung called MC on that day and the members were like WHY IS HE CALLING U IS IT BECAUSE DOSUNG BDAY WHY WHY WHY and I was like stfu stop making everything about urselves

[collapse]

)

anyways I recommend reading this for my 🐐s Kang Hyun sung, MC and whatever goes between them + the mystery behind the regression cause these are the only reasons I read the novel for...

UPDATE now im in ch 207 and the story is more fucosed on MC and the plot become more intresting ? the members also grew more on me and I like them all better now cant wait for more chapters I wanna know the mystery behind the system sooooo baaaad <<less

Excellent! I wasn't expecting much since there are many generic idol KR novels out there, and most of them are pretty mediocre. Also the art cover looks a little old-fashioned. However, this reminds me a lot of Debut or Die, which is one of my favorite novels. The MC Taeyoon is very practical, loves his members, and has a tragic backstory. He's quite cute in a tsundere maknae way. MC has system benefits but it's not super overdone and annoying. Regression mystery is intriguing. I love me a good supporting... more>> character cast - here, only half of the idol group has significant characterization about a third into the story, but it's made up for with a very interesting rival/friend character. <<less

So far, I'm loving the novel. It's kind of wholesome, and I love their friendship; it's so genuine. I'm still waiting for more chapters.

I like that this doesn't end with the MC debuting. There's a deeper plot happening in the background, which adds a lot of intrigue and suspense.

I'm so confused by whats happening with the system. It's not as straightforward like other system novels, but it makes it more interesting.

10/10 I need more chapters.

This novel is good and quite entertaining. I like the part where the main character doesn't just seem to go back in time (?) for no reason or because a trivial reason, but there's something more to it, and there are a few surprises that I found it refreshing. For someone who is used to reading novels with a lot of chapters, I think the chapters in this novel are a bit short, so some scenes that I thought would be exciting to explain further are summarized by the author,... more>> such as when the main character does the elements related to becoming an idol. This is not a bad thing, but it's just a shame because it could add to the excitement of reading this novel. <<less

I’m really in love with this novel! It’s premise is like debut or die but give it a significant change. Tae-Yoon is so cute, I really felt like a fan rooting for him. The chemistry with the members are also all great, they didn’t really feel flat but have their own personalities, the side characters makes you want too root for them too!

The MC, Tae-Yoon have a system like any other idol MC do, but his is quite different. The system doesn’t show something like a status window, so it’s... more>> quite nice to see a change of pace. He’s not op too, we see him struggling a lot but the solution doesn’t feel that crazy or far fetched.

The story is quite a slow burn though. But very chapter makes you want to know more about it. I recommend this novel to anyone who is craving for more idol novels like me, it’s really a fun read with slight angst in it. <<less
