The Top-Tier Star Road of a Forced-to-Work Couch Potato

In his previous life on Blue Star, Bai Shu was a top-tier star who died suddenly from exhaustion on the night he was nominated for Best Actor.

Reborn in an interstellar ABO world, he becomes the youngest son of a family of farmers, an utterly ordinary Beta. His plans for this life are crystal clear: lie flat, cook, and be a couch potato. He absolutely will not repeat his past mistakes.

Then his fourth brother's company goes bankrupt, and his second sister's fortune-telling says her fate is too elusive, so she has to go out and seek her "destined connection." Next thing he knows, he's been shoved into the first all-day livestreamed talent show in the interstellar world.

Fine. He'll give a halfhearted performance, get eliminated, and hurry home.

Instead, he casually dances his way up to B-rank. After watching someone else's performance once, he flawlessly recreates it and becomes a legend. He takes the weakest group in the competition and choreographs them into a stunning comeback. His fans call themselves "Potato Fans," and their fighting power is off the charts. Even professional marketing accounts are terrified of them.

Bai Shu: I'm clearly slacking off. Why am I getting more and more famous?

Even more absurdly, Jin Yuqiu, the 3S-rank Alpha Best Actor who came on as a guest mentor, actually invites him to live together and keeps pushing him to debut.

Bai Shu sees through him and demands, "Are you trying to be my dad fan?"

Jin Yuqiu: "...I just can't stand how lazy you are."

One is a reborn top-tier star who pushed himself to the limit, died once, and now wants nothing more than to lie flat. The other is an interstellar heir who treats life like a script and has planned out a perfect contractual marriage. Their paths should never have crossed, but they collide head-on on the talent show's stage.

"You don't want to stand onstage?"

"No."

"Then why are you crying?"

A couch potato who won't try, and a Best Actor who refuses to play by the rules. This is the story of a reluctant couch potato forced to work, and a big-tailed wolf who walks right into the trap.

Theme: Lying flat isn't running away. It's a clear-eyed choice made after living through hardship. True freedom is living as yourself.
