To start with, I truly enjoy OP main characters because I can just turn my head off and like, just enjoy the flow. This novel was a case like that. However, even if I really liked how this novel was written, I had to give a 3* because;1. The ending feels rushed. I dont know if Im biased (hopefully not) because I've only read ongoing works (basically read finished works while they were publishing chapters still) but the ending feels so rushed ㅠㅠ. Its not even an open ending too. I think I would've rated it higher if the production of "Beauty and the Beast" and "John Persona" were also more spread out. While reading up to chapter 417, I was anxious because the novel is complete at chapter 480, yet there were atleast three more productions in progress. I was thinking, "was this discontinued"? a lot. Anyhow, after reading the novel, I was not content. I needed more of it.2. I love the progression in "Pierrot" and that movie's symbolism in Woojin's life. But I didnt like how no one believed him whenever he tried to tell or show his true self. It was sad not being seen as you. Maybe it because the novel was very lightherted, but I wished it atleast had some moments with people who knows the true him. It actually what captivated me first. Like how he keeps his professional life to his personal life. He had one of his friends become a staff! I hope that there would atleast be some scene where he's reassured that some people who works in the industry knows his true self. That actually another reason why the romance in this was bad (imo). How come the love interest didnt even... HAAAA. I hate it here (lmao) 3. Thw unexplained plots. There were some parts that were uh, not fleshed out enough? Like for the shaman's kid? The whole bad vibes. And then how the black whole even started. Like. Ig was in yhe last episode but my reaction was just "??? How does that work exactly?4. THE SIDE CHARACTERS. UGHHG. I dont like it when a skde character with potential just get mentioned once and then never appear again. There was atleast THREE, nay, EIGHT. Eight actors who could've been fleshed out in the story. I knkw people tend to hate it when a side character gets more screen time that the actual MC, but gosh, having maybe the character get their own screentime (when they were mentioned to have grown cuz of mc) would've been nice. There were two specific characters there, but damn it hurts.Overall, if you like a male mary-sue MC protagonist in showbiz, this one is for you. I liked it at the start, but the overall of the novel left a bitterweet aftertaste for me. Personally, Id give it a 6.5/10
