Sang Sang (Sang Sang Ji, Sunny), whose Korean name is Lee Sang Sang, is forty years old and a senior member of a Korean singing and dancing group, excellent at both. After retiring, he gets into a car accident while acting and returns to the age of eighteen, when he is sent to a food variety show. His life is now controlled by a Rebirth System.

The show is livestreamed to satisfy viewers. The System requires him to raise their favorability toward him. If it reaches one thousand, he will have a chance to be reborn. Otherwise, his life will be in danger again.

Unfortunately, he's currently being slandered as a school bully, and viewers can't stand him.

Your audience favorability: -10

Your audience favorability: -20

Your audience favorability...

If it were just his personal image, that wouldn't be a big deal. But he's also hopeless at practical tasks. He can't even operate a rice cooker at home, let alone make a proper meal.

To make matters worse, the wicked production team has brought him in as a filler contestant, making him the foil to a trainee preparing to debut.

One all-around survivor versus one unlucky punching bag stacked with every possible debuff.

And if that weren't bad enough, one of the commentators watching the livestream keeps praising his foil.

The System transmits the commentator's voice right into his ears. Every time he speaks, the audience starts cursing him and the System deducts points. He can't stand this person. The other hosts call him Mingyu, but who is he, anyway?

It isn't until his foil quietly pulls out a photocard that he realizes this is his bias! One of them!

He cries out inside: How can I win this battle? Heaven, give me another life!

P.S.:

* KyuBoo and ChanBoo shipper.

* Lae is a Chinese trainee with exceptional dancing and choreography skills. He's athletic, and can play piano and practice martial arts. He entered the National Dance Academy at sixteen, went to Korea to train at eighteen, and debuted two years later.
