Korean Entertainment: The Heavenly King

After finishing the book, I felt empty inside, as if I had lost my spiritual anchor. Coupled with the double blow of Softie's relationship being exposed, I was completely devastated! Undoubtedly, *The King* is a pinnacle of Korean entertainment novels!

I really can't accept this kind of harem plot. I don't understand why all urban novels these days have to include harems. The various emotional entanglements in the early stages were very engaging, but it felt like it fell apart when the harem element came on. I honestly couldn't continue reading.

If, like me, you see someone in a comment section recommending this book, or praising the visuals of "Raging Light and Shadow," and you're tempted to check it out, then my personal advice is not to waste your time. While it might have been acceptable for its time, the tastes and writing styles of that era... Make it genuinely awkward to read now.

First: He himself is not a very good person, yet he demands that his woman not have any contact with any male friends. Second: This personality is like a central air conditioner. Even though he already has a girlfriend, he shows no restraint whatsoever with other women. When caught, he claims they're just good friends.

Is this book the beginning, the peak, or the end of Korean entertainment fiction?

Happy birthday, Seo Joo-hyun! Happy Birthday, SeoJuHyun! "Xu Xian, may you be happy forever. We will always be by your side and protect you, the most precious one."

Honestly... I found it a bit hard to get into. Maybe I encountered this book too late... I first read "Your Name," starring Taeyeon, and then "Fatty's Korean Entertainment," also starring Taeyeon... Honestly... No matter how popular Taeyeon is, I'm tired of her... (Special praise to Guangying). Then, reading this book at first felt really refreshing!

After watching it, I can't help but want to complain about a few things. 1: The protagonist is a psychopath with a strong desire for control. It feels like the protagonist has locked the child in a cage, and the child can only admire the child himself. If anyone else looks at the child for too long, he will beat him up. 2: Reading this book makes me feel sleepy for the protagonist and the girls.

I came with high expectations but left disappointed. Undeniably, it's an above-average entertainment novel, but it can't be called a K-pop novel. This is a common problem with most K-pop novels on Qidian.com. The novel's social commentary feels completely Chinese, forcibly applying familiar customs to a Chinese context, presenting the author's imagined Korean entertainment industry.

The protagonist is initially portrayed as a pure and innocent warm-hearted man, remaining a virgin for over 400 chapters. Later, he develops a harem, with people willing to lend him around 60 million RMB after knowing him for only six months, and this was back in the early 2000s. Later still, as an investor, he bows to the crew, addressing them as "seniors," and claims that his status as a chairman and investor dictates certain behavior.
