   Curator note

   A woman transmigrates into a man's body; a boy band audition; seemingly a fantasy creation of a fandom mogul? The depiction of the fandom is very realistic, and the protagonist has a perfect character design.

   It's well-written, but the later descriptions feel somewhat unrealistic and lack a strong sense of immersion.

    The main focus is on the character's career, with Carlos (the protagonist's one-night stand after drinking) as the main couple. Their romance is relatively minor but still enjoyable.
