1. 1 在 [Showbiz] I Became a Top-Tier Idol After Debuting as the Center [娱乐圈]在选秀C位出道后成为神级爱豆 Misty Pine雾松松Romance1.2M WordsCompleted [Main story complete. Anti-piracy chapters make up 70%, and the update schedule is rather irregular. This is a brainless wish-fulfillment story, so don't take it too seriously. Lots of forum-style chapters.] [For another completed story in the same series, a career-and-romance wish-fulfillment story, see From Cartoonist to Top Screenwriter. Pre-release: From Novelist to Top Director.] The director of the global audition show Shining World took one look at intern Jiang Tinghan and thought he'd st 15.4kFavorites18kClicks/ch58.6kGifts

   Curator note

   Multi-forum format, many personal settings, original international talent show group formation + solo, the male lead might be a bit out of character (too perfect), but the romance subplots are quite sweet, timeline from 22 to the present.

2. 2 那 That Short-Tempered Original Idol [Showbiz] 那个暴躁的元祖偶像[娱乐圈] Ji Xi吉兮Romance1.8M WordsCompleted [Note: The main story is complete. If you're only here for the male lead, we recommend subscribing to Extra 1. Guaranteed sweetness. The female lead's career takes up much of the main story, the romance is slow to develop, and there's a second male lead.] Everyone in the industry knows how explosive Xia Misheng's temper is. Before making it big, she nitpicked at JYP: “Oppa, is this the only kind of song you can write for me? You're about to get dropped!” After she became famous, she bossed YG a 15kFavorites26.4kClicks/ch43.3kGifts

   Curator note

   A very long novel, heavily influenced by personal interpretations, featuring a sibling romance, with a large portion dedicated to the first generation of the group. The female lead is incredibly powerful and has a huge cheat ability, while the male lead appears late in the story and is somewhat unrealistic (lol, hard to imagine in reality [covering face and peeking]). However, stepping outside the fanfiction perspective, it's undeniably engaging, reminiscent of the strong female lead novels of a few years ago. If you're concerned about projecting your own image onto the story, you can focus on the "what if" storyline, which is primarily told from a traditional perspective. The super-long side stories are what I'd call Xia Misheng 2.0. There's even a 3.0 version on this book list 😏 A complete set of character relationships, multiple endings, and achievements 🍉

3. 3 你 [Showbiz] Are You Acting as Me? [娱乐圈]你演我？ Really Love Eating Mangoes非常喜欢吃芒果Romance687k WordsCompleted The main story is complete!! There are a few extra chapters left. One day, semi-amateur Kim Lili, who had a cozy 1.5-meter mattress in her rooftop room, and superstar GD, who woke up every day in a 500-square-meter bed in a mansion worth billions, switched bodies. Before: Quan Zhilong: Sometimes I want to put aside the name GD and live as an ordinary person. Kim Lili: I hate people who show off. A month later: Kim 5.6kFavorites6.2kClicks/ch16kGifts

   Curator note

   The original story features a solo artist from a struggling group who becomes a producer at Astro, and the concept of soul swapping is interesting, but the conditions weren't clearly explained in the end. It seemed like things would get interesting, but the later plot didn't really revolve around this. However, that's not the focus; the main storyline is the female lead's career, with a rather weak romance and not many sweet moments. Hopefully, the epilogue will provide some more sweet moments. The timeline is around episodes 16 to 21.

4. 4 教 [Entertainment Industry] The Cult Leader Reigns for All Eternity [娱乐圈]教主千秋万代 Chun Wei Cang春为苍Romance300k WordsCompleted Cheng Shangen was just a little-known actress in China, barely a blip on the radar. She never expected to catch a talent scout’s eye at first glance while traveling in Japan. The scout made grand promises: “You’re the perfect leading lady for us. If you take the role, I guarantee you’ll become famous overnight! On the streets of South Korea and Japan, nine out of every ten people will be your fans!...” So Cheng Shangen’s manager was won over. Cheng Shangen never imagined that while she was a 11.3kFavorites34.2kClicks/ch4.1kGifts

5. 5 玩 Just for Fun [Entertainment Industry] 玩玩而已[娱乐圈] Chun Wei Cang春为苍Romance229k WordsCompleted Song You dug a huge pit for Kwon Jiyong. The pit was that she would become his girlfriend and keep the ever-lonely man company. Kwon Jiyong fell right into it, and Song You did her best to play her part in good conscience. She played the role of a sweet, obedient girlfriend: gentle, attentive, and always there when he called. At the nightclub, if anyone asked, she would sensibly say she was his little sister. Then, on June 8, the day Kwon Jiyong's new album came out, one text was mixed in wit 8.9kFavorites20.9kClicks/ch2.5kGifts

   This is completely different from the description. I thought it was a push-and-pull story about a manipulative woman, but it turns out to be a sweet and fluffy romance with smooth writing and a timeline of around 16 years.

6. 6 冰 Between the Ice Blade and the Starlight 冰刀与星光之间 Blue Glow Shines Through the Night青荧照夜Romance514k WordsCompleted Top-tier star x Short Track Queen, a secret battle spanning ten years In 2013, at an underground bar in Seoul, their story began with a glance in a dimly lit club. Nineteen-year-old Ren Xiyao mistook the top-tier star for a DJ, while Quan Zhilong remembered the Chinese girl whose gaze was sharper than an ice skate blade. One person's love was deep and rich as black jade, the other's dazzling as a blue diamond. But in the end, what truly fit and endured was the resonance between their souls. Th 3.3kFavorites3.2kClicks/ch7.1kGifts

   Curator note

   The romance between the short track speed skating queen and the superstar mainly focuses on the female star's struggles in the sport. There are some heart-wrenching moments, and the ending leaves a lingering sense of loss. It ended well, but I wish there had been a less melancholic ending. The beginning was so sad that even the sweet moments felt like glass candy.

7. 7 无 [Entertainment Industry] Treating Everyone the Same [娱乐圈]无差别对待 Chun Wei Cang春为苍Romance433k WordsCompleted Due to the company's financial problems, the group Lan Mu belongs to is facing disbandment just three months after debuting. At her last onstage meeting with her fans, Lan Mu smiled tenderly as she gave her speech, but tears rolled down her cheeks. “I'm so glad I was born into this world and got to meet you all.” Fans uploaded the video online as a memento. Her beauty had gone unnoticed for three months, but now it suddenly caught everyone's attention. In the video, a single tear made Lan Mu lo 22.3kFavorites58.7kClicks/ch18.6kGifts
