Idol Turned Actor

In the dazzling world of K-pop, Jung Minho was a name everyone knew. A once-beloved idol adored by millions, his career came to a devastating halt when a fabricated scandal tore apart his life. The lies spread like wildfire, leaving him to face a world that no longer believed in him. Overwhelmed by betrayal, stress, and depression, Minho makes the heartbreaking decision to end his life. But death is not the end for him. Minho wakes up seven years in the past, but not as himself. He finds himself in the body of Kang Hyunjae, an unknown amateur actor with a struggling career and nothing to lose. As Minho grapples with his new reality, a mysterious system appears before him. The system offers him one chance: if he can rise to the top of the acting world and become a globally renowned star, he will have the opportunity to reclaim his original life, free from scandal. Determined to rewrite his fate, Minho sets out on a grueling journey filled with cutthroat competition, grueling auditions, and the shadow of his former self. But the acting world isn’t any kinder than the idol industry, and the deeper he goes, the more he uncovers the truth about the people who betrayed him and the price of fame. Will Minho be able to overcome his inner demons, outshine the competition, and reclaim his life? Or will his second chance slip through his fingers as he faces new challenges, betrayal, and heartbreak in the pursuit of his dreams? The stage is set, the spotlight is on, and Minho must decide what truly matters in this dramatic tale of redemption, resilience, and revenge.

Order Of The Divine

Pride? Honor? What do those words even mean? I’ve never felt the need to indulge in such fleeting emotions. As long as I can survive another day, nothing else matters. Fame, power, wealth, even the affection of women—I’ll throw them all away in an instant if it means I can take just one more breath of freedom. The only thing that drives me now is the desperate need to escape this unrelenting enslavement. Magic has returned to the world. Divine artifacts, long thought to be lost, have resurfaced, bringing with them nothing but chaos. The gods have descended upon us, enslaving humanity and forcing us into their merciless game—the “God Games.” A cruel competition where we, the powerless, are nothing more than pawns on a living chessboard. Manipulated, controlled, and discarded for the gods’ amusement. But I am no pawn. I refuse to accept my fate. I will fight tooth and nail for my freedom. I will sacrifice everything—my pride, my honor, my humanity—if it means I can escape this nightmare and carve out a life of my own. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that survival is all that matters. And no matter the cost, I will live. —— Chapters 1-30 are primarily prologues building up to the first main arc. There will be world-building, action, betrayal, kingdom-building, and world-hopping, - Tags: Fantasy, Male MC, Schedule: 4 Chapters a week.

The System Allows Me to Live Only If I Have the Title of a Hero

Ethan T. Carter had it all in his world—wealth, a loving family, supportive friends, and a promising future. But when a devastating diagnosis cuts his life short, he is offered an impossible choice by an otherworldly system: be transported to another world, Valoria, and earn the title of Hero—or die in less than 365 days (one year). Upon accepting, Ethan awakens in Valoria, a world brimming with magic, kingdoms, and legendary heroes. However, his new life is far from easy. His family, though retaining their same personalities, are now commoners instead of the wealthy figures they were in his previous life. To make matters more challenging, all of his close friends from Earth seem to be strangers in this world. Ethan realizes that the only chance to extend his life is to join the prestigious Hero Academy, where participants from across the land compete for the honor of being one of their kingdom’s chosen heroes. The academy is brutal, with each trial a test of survival. While no one dies during the competition, participants are eliminated one by one until only seven remain. Those seven will earn the title of Hero and the power, status, and privilege that come with it. The competition is fierce, with everyone vying for the limited spots, knowing that only by becoming a hero can they fulfill their destiny in Valoria. As Ethan battles through each trial, he finds himself face-to-face with some of his old friends from Earth—though in this world, they do not recognize him. Strangers with familiar faces now compete alongside him, and Ethan must navigate the complex emotions of seeing his loved ones, knowing they no longer remember who he is. With time running out, and only 365 days to secure his survival, Ethan is thrust into a high-stakes journey filled with danger, rivalries, and alliances. The path to becoming a hero is riddled with traps, magic, and strategic challenges. But Ethan must succeed—for failure means the end of his life, in both Valoria and beyond. Can Ethan survive the trials of the Hero Academy, reclaim his place in this world, and earn the title that will allow him to keep living? Or will the countdown to his death be his ultimate undoing? The clock is ticking, and the title of Hero is his only hope.
