I Will Live As An Actor Chapter Completed Discussion

Between a 3.5-4.0

It's a nice read for the regressed-celebrity-genre. No systems or cheats, just past life to make MC an acting "genius, " as he actually achieved success in his life. (He's still kinda OP tho cause why not I guess lol)

Despite success, MC let go of important things along the way. It is a story of no regrets and treasuring parents. That is where your enjoyment will come from. The plot outside is nothing very special and eventually the connection with mom only makes small appearances. Because his relationship with the mom is most present during the beginning of the novel, that was probably the most enjoyable part to me.

Spoiler

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.

Personal Opinion: Manhwa > Novel

I've looked at both and I think the Manhwa was better because the novel can be a little too detail-oriented for me in it's description. It gets tedious since the plot centered around his acting career is not any more exciting than other things I have read in the same vein.
