Borrowed Lives, Earned Stardom
Choi Hyun-woo always wanted to be in the spotlight. Tired of being invisible, he abandoned his struggling mother and small-town life to chase a dream—becoming a famous actor. But reality was harsh. He had no talent, no presence, and worst of all, no understanding of emotions.
When his mother falls gravely ill, Hyun-woo returns home for the first time in years. Only then does he learn the truth—the endless sacrifices she made, the humiliations she endured, and the love he never appreciated. Crushed by regret, he finds himself praying at an old temple, desperate for a miracle.
And then… fate changes.
Now, every time he completes a mission—living someone else’s life—he returns with something real. A skill, an emotion, an experience. Piece by piece, he begins to transform.
From a talentless nobody to a legendary actor. But at what cost?
