By the middle of the novel, there are typical actor antics you can expect. There was a plot that involved studying and going to college, but it really fell flat and took up so much reading for nothing. He majors in law to "broaden his perspective." Depending on reader's perspective, the insights from this plot could be reflective and philosophical or just sound like the rambling of someone trying to sound smart. Either way, it doesn't matter for the overall plot and is probably just meant to highlight how unnecessarily smart the MC is.

There is no romance until the very end and it eventually becomes the conclusion to the novel, which is why I personally checked out the last few chapters and was just skimming. It's not harem, you will know who the FL is, but like I said most of the novel is focused on the acting than romance.

There wasn't conclusion on how he should have starred as a lead in Grandpa Baek's movie. Intially I thought the munchkin plot of perfect csat and law school is built up for this, maybe the story is about law, so it was disappointing.

It seems the writer struggled with the writing towards the middle, which is marked by using abrupt time jump or abrupt future interview of Kwak numerous times. It had a really good potential but this didn't make it to my masterpiece list, because it could've been much more. Of course, it's not like every novel in my masterpiece list is a perfect book. But it was pretty repetitive with how every incident happening and somehow MC needs to be the substitute. About the woman attracting magnet plot, well it was bad although not as much as some wuxia harem, but still awkward nonetheless. Why does everyone falls in love with him lol? I also feel like it was strange the MC suddenly become the most handsome man in universe after backstory of him having gangster face but a little more handsome. All in all towards the middle a lot of inconsistencies starts popping out.

I feel like the best thing about this novel is the part of The Confession of Priest, I would watch it if there's movie like that. Along with the movie To Jihwan. The writer did a nice job during these parts. Usually, that's the charm of novel centered in showbiz. Unfortunately aside from these two, his works doesn't sound that interesting, with one is ordinary school drama and one is fantasy merman and girl something. It wasn't that unique. His other work don't even get elaborated with the time skip so I can't say anything about it.

MC is a top actor who deeply regrets his life after his mother's death. He yeets to the past and rediscovers his love for acting and respect for other humans.

The two issues that shortchanged what should have been a five star story is his brief and slightly unbelievable love arc and the missing script. His "grandfather" director mentions this one golden script that he thinks MC is the perfect fit for in the future. Absolute no mention of this by the end of the story. Zero. Why taunt us with this and yeet the MC to finish in Hollywood "vaguely". Was the author on a time crunch? What happened to completely miss this part?

The love arc. Spoilers, it's the child female actor he first worked with. Why he liked her? Cause she's beautiful. That's it. He also mysteriously gets married to her some time in the future. I don't hate this addition but it's the most offhand way to indicate he's not gay (literally, as per novel as a "rumor"). Maybe I like romance in stories too much to see it sidelined like this. Personal bias.

And at this time, manhwa is not finished. The manwha has added details before that really heightened the reading experience. I want to see the movies he's acted in because of it. So maybe the romance will make more sense.
