See allKorean Entertainment: Great Completed Reads and Ongoing Series
I've been reading Korean entertainment-industry novels for nearly ten years, and I feel like there are so few good ones these days. (Most authors don't pay much attention to career storylines, which take more effort to write. Instead, the characters start dating right away.) I hope more promising Korean entertainment novels will come along. I used to like Lin Yun'er and Girls' Generation. Now I've added Twice's Mina and Liu Zhimin to the list. That said, I might still add a few good Korean enter
Sweet Romance (+ My Personal Picks)
I like novels with sweet romance, and everything here is either fully purchased or about to be. I'll also add other kinds of books I like from my bookshelf from time to time. (P.S. I think I have a pretty high tolerance for toxic content.) Lately, aside from a few romance novels I'm following that are finally getting good, I haven't found any other sweet romances worth reading. If you know any, leave a comment under this list! ( '╰(' ) I've mostly moved to another site recently, so updates will

Korean Entertainment: The Rules of Idol Life and Everyday Romance
“What Is Korean Entertainment?” Korean entertainment refers to South Korea's entertainment industry. The entertainment world, also known as show business, encompasses people working in the performing arts and the environment surrounding them. Professionals in film, television, stand-up comedy, singing, dance, and variety shows are generally considered part of the industry. Performers today are commonly called entertainers. In some places, people working in show business must join a local union.

Lin Xiaolu's timeline in Season 1
After organizing Yoona's timeline from the first season, it's still quite clear. Episode 1: Chapter 4, February 8, 2015, with Sun Xiaoxiao on the set of the TV series "God of War". Chapter 18, February 14, 2015, returning to China via Pudong Airport. Chapter 19, February 18, 2015, Spring Festival at home with my father. Episode 2:
Let me share my thoughts on the number of female leads.
Well, I've been following this book for a long time, and from what I've seen so far, I really don't think it's necessary to add another female lead. Based on the author's previous descriptions, I think Lin Shenshi is a decisive and efficient person with strict goals, which isn't the kind of personality that allows him to be entangled with many people simultaneously.
I feel that Ruan Mao's novel pioneered a new style of writing about Korean entertainment. First, I must understand that Korean entertainment is essentially a romance novel, albeit one that is fixed within various frameworks. However, this doesn't prevent readers from harboring fantasies about idols or female leads.
Is this Dajun, the owner of this shop? I've had him for a long time. Could someone please tell me?
My beloved Pei Datou is gone just like that.
I'm so angry! It's true that Yoona is great as a single girl, but it's so unfair that Bae is being used repeatedly to test their relationship!
While waiting for updates out of boredom, I want to praise Soft Hair author: why is this book so well-written? My bookshelf is full of Korean entertainment books, such as Fatty, King, Light and Shadow, King Han, Reboot, and Helmsman. These are the ones I can finish reading, but this is the only one I can reread several times. Firstly, this book excels in its detailed descriptions.
This book has both obvious strengths and weaknesses. The romance is delicate, full of sweet moments; personally, I think it's much better than the artificially sweet "My Celebrity Neighbor." The weaknesses are also obvious. The character of the Three Gods' grandmother becomes increasingly unlikable later on.
I stumbled upon this book. I don't follow any Korean female celebrities, and I don't even know any of them. The writing is indeed quite good, and the writing style is rather unique, so I kept reading. However, since it's a single-female-lead story, I think the downside is that Bae Joo-hyun's character is portrayed too well.
The interactions between the father and son are genuinely sweet, but the career aspects are incredibly dull. The entire series revolves around a power struggle between father and son, with the father suppressing the male lead and the male lead maneuvering through various connections. There's no attempt to showcase the male lead's business acumen or intelligence. The interactions with the son are truly awful.
