Honestly, like much of the reviewer, I gave up after chapter 30. This genre where the backer fall in love with the artist they are paying is not unusual but that's what make it hard for the story to stand out from the rest and that's what I don't see in this.The pacing is slow, but honestly I usually don't mind that. What I do mind is when the pace is slow but there's nothing in it. The pacing just serves one plot hole after another and it's frustrating. Yes the romance is kinda cute but I don't see why the ML suddenly flipped 180 degree when MC promise to not betray him in the same day?? And after that revelation of promise after promises the ML suddenly spoils the MC for the sole reason that "I'm your backer" which I think make no sense at all considering the MC legit run to another man's arms time after time?Aside from that confusing hole we are presented by the MC trying to be an actor with the ML helping here and there. I actually don't mind the MC timidness since it actually make sense that as a newcomer he doesn't want to make trouble but.. That's it. I can't see his personality at all (aside maybe being helpless) which is confusing since the MC personality should've been fully introduced by this point but nope.Another thing that I don't really like is his consistency of his intimacy with the ML. The fact that he's catching some feelings so early when not even a couple chapters before this, he's so adamant about not getting close and making a point about the relationship being purely transaction, is so annoying. I just feel like there's no development at all to end up at that point.Don't even mention about face slapping. The only face slapping I see is the MC being helpless all the time and honestly, even I am embarassed for the MC reading it at this point. I guess I just like face slapping if it's through the power of the MC themselves because I don't see the difference between the MC and a pretty vase breaking again and again.The only redeeming quality of this novel is probably just some of ML characteristics and the fact that the MC not just straight up cry after a couple of problems.So yeah. Maybe I'll finish this and update this but I don't know. But, do know that if you are the tipe who want to read full on fluff with feelings right from the get go then this is the novel for you.
