    Reader note

    First, let me clarify that there's a slight discrepancy because the protagonist is from a boy band, and it's a time-travel story—a movie star transmigrates into the body of a relatively unknown member of the boy band. The acting is well-written, and the male lead later also becomes an actor. The story focuses on two dramas, not many, but both are minor. "Ten Thousand Mountains" is slightly brief because the male lead isn't the main character, but he's a very important supporting role. I absolutely love "The Ninety-Nine Steps"! The emotions in it are very intense, and this time the male lead is the protagonist. Trust me, the final script is absolutely brilliant! It's very profound. If you only read the script, your evaluation of the male lead will be rather one-sided. I suggest not just reading one particular scene, especially since the male lead is truly charismatic. After all, in his own world, he's just one trophy away from becoming a Grand Slam Movie Star—mature yet humorous, with a powerful inner strength.

    Both of these books are romance-free and feature a protagonist with a cheat-like advantage. The first one has a calm and gentle style, delicate emotions, several small plots, and a relatively fast pace. The second one progresses more slowly; the protagonist currently only plays one role, but skillfully leaves clues. Unlike the former, which follows an actor's formula, the protagonist's first scene in this book is theatrical, with a detailed plot and a more slice-of-life feel. If you're interested, you can check them out; each has its own appeal, but I like them both.
