Reborn in ’99: Starting Out as a Tutor to a Top Student

The author is very pragmatic. Unlike other authors who portray their academically gifted protagonists as top-tier beauties second only to the protagonist, this author doesn't try to depict them as such. But seeing the part where the copied song is given to a beautiful woman still makes me feel annoyed, like the protagonist's private property has been stolen.

The story first describes the internet cafe owner's deep affection for her deceased husband, then she sleeps with him. Isn't that awkward? If you're going to be involved in technology, just stick to technology. Why get involved in womanizing? Is she sexually repressed?

It seemed fine at first, but then in college, without you even noticing, they started ranking students by seniority and age, like "elder brother," "second brother," and "third brother." Don't you guys who write about rebirth like this kind of seniority-based system in dorms?

It really got increasingly boring towards the end. I take back my previous assessment. To borrow a phrase from the comments, it started strong but ended weakly. The plot pace slowed down more and more, making it feel more like a native than a reincarnated character. It seemed busy, but actually accomplished nothing. Just when you thought the pace was about to pick up, it slowed down again.

Making a widow the female lead is really awkward. If she's a widow, fine, but if you wrote it as a story of marital discord, I wouldn't complain. But instead, you have to portray her as having a wonderful relationship with her ex-husband, and how much she misses him after his death.

I don't understand. You're already in vocational school, why do you still need to take the college entrance exam and go to university? As a reborn person, what would you do in university? You're not a reborn high school student. You've already given yourself a cheat code; you don't need to go to university to prove anything. I can guess what will happen next—you won't study hard in university; you'll be busy starting businesses or something. So why go at all?

What's the point of investing 100 million in Alibaba? Why not invest that money in DRAM and GPUs instead of frantically working on neural network papers? It's just benefiting the US and South Korea. Even if you monopolize all AI research papers, so what?

What's the point of this computer shop owner's character? And why did they have to write that she's a widow who inherited her husband's legacy in the computer and internet business? Plus, she's so close to the protagonist, it's almost romantic. Wouldn't it have been the same with a male character? Why do they have to play the widow?

The beginning seemed good, but when it started describing the sisters accidentally exposing their privacy and other things like youthful vigor, it became a bit toxic. What does it mean that the female boss who lost her fiancé later was so devoted to her? She fought for her and went crazy for her.
