    It's a modern female-centric story, already completed. The male lead was a caged bird in his past life, but he's not in his current situation after being reborn; it's the female lead who is reborn. The story starts in school and later moves to the entertainment industry. It's a rebirth and redemption novel. I found it quite enjoyable; you might want to give it a try if you're looking for something to read.
