“Hey, Goo Won. Do you want to try this?”

Goo Won falls asleep while trying to play the game ‘Idol Misery Simulation 2’, which was given to him by his younger sibling. When he wakes up, he finds himself inside the game as ‘Goo Won’, the President of ‘Goo Won Entertainment’.

He had signed a contract to take the idol group Tartarus away from their former exploitative agency. However, upon learning that the members of Tartarus had suffered ab*se at the hands of their previous president, he becomes enraged…

“And I am not your owner, nor are you my products. Humans can never be considered merchandise. No one has the right to treat another person that way.”

“What? Then what exactly are we to you?”

Fortunately, a premium package was registered, ensuring that Tartarus had everything they needed to thrive. But then, Goo Won stumbles upon an unexpected status window…

[※ Feel free to make the idol group Tartarus as miserable as you want!]

Dropped.

I remember now why I left it unfinished in the first reading. The story should not be called "slow paced", the chapters simply are filled with unneccessary scenes or actions. Or you can just call it there's a lot of filler scenes. On average, in a chapter there would be like 1-2 scenes with a few things done, paying a lot of attentions to characters tilting their heads in confusion for whatever happened in that scene.

For these 33 chapters I read, I can sum it up in this short... more>> paragraph:

MC found himself in the game he played as a villainous CEO who took an idol group, Tatarus, from his debtor to toy with. The idols knew the original host hate them, but started to warm up to the MC when the MC consistently treated them well. In the meantime, he also got super popular with his employees, especially the secretary and a manager who were bound to him as game items. The secretary knew that the MC wasn't his original boss, but didn't care cuz he liked this current one better. There were some kissy scene and unsolicited touching happened while the MC was pretty oblivious or strangely didn't mind much. It's also revealed that the past of these idols were unhappy or filled with tormenting events and the MC wanted to help them got pass it/healed.

That's it. 33 chapters. <<less

I DONT KNOW. I really enjoyed this reading from the beginning to about the middle, what intrigued me is the setting of the game and how its an idol group. I loved how the members slowly heal from their wounds from their past agency and find comfort in the MC. All the characters were pretty realistic as well, especially the MC and the secretary. But imo it got boring when the sister came into the world and it started focusing more on making the game into a reality. It started... more>> to feel like it was dragging on. Which I did expect considering its 373 chapters but it’s still a disappointment cause I enjoyed it all the way up to 226. At the beginning I thought the it would just be the members of the group in love with the MC but it seems like the secretary liked him too. In the beginning I imagined him as a crusty old man but then realized later on he’s also a love interest and it was hard to fix his image LOL. Imo it was pretty obvious the MC would be with the secretary and thats just not my thing. I want the MC to have trouble choosing and like them all. I also just didnt wanna see the member’s broken hearts : ( (I really liked the characters especially nam yisol and lee daon. Seems like they never had a chance even at the beginning and it makes me sad! And for an idol webnovel there wasn’t alot about them actually being idols? I dont know, I guess im just used to seeing fan’d reactions and getting the ins and outs of being an idol. I really enjoyed reading everyone’s backstory too. Especially nam yisol’s, it was so sad but realistic. Another thing, I felt like time skipped too much imo, like we’d be informed tartarus is having a comeback and it skips to after? Its not a bad novel, just not my thing. <<less

Wow, I didn't expect to like it so much.

The plot is moving kinda slow, so not much has happened yet, but the potential is visible.

For example, unlike most other works about transmigration, here people from the game world notice that something strange and illogical is happening. And all characters feel alive.

It's not entirely clear who will be the ML.

Spoiler

I think it's going to be the secretary, but I'm all for polyamory with MC, secretary Sung, and manager Ahn, lol.

[collapse]

But as I said, the book has a pretty slow pace, so if you want pure romance, you're in the wrong place.

You'll probably like this novel if you are fan of heartwarming stories about "healing" people who've been through some sh*t.

This is my impression so far, I hope that nothing will change much in future chapters, 'cause it's already perfect. <<less

It's a slowburn but I really like the healing side. Also MC is irresistible to everyone and he's aware of it (at some extent, but not enough) so it's hilarious to see him missing the subtle interactions lol.

So far we don't have a clear indication of how the romance will develop or who ML is but I am hoping

Spoiler

that it's Secretary Sung LOL.
