Later On, I Was Known As A Fake Actor!

## My Thoughts on Later On, I Was Known As A Fake Actor! "Later On, I Was Known As A Fake Actor!" promised a comedic take on the entertainment industry with a dash of romance, and while it delivered on some fronts, it left me with a slightly mixed impression overall. ### First Impressions Initially, I found the beginning a bit jarring. The story throws you right into the deep end with drama, scandals, and scheming. I didn't immediately connect with the characters, and the rapid shifts in perspective made it difficult to latch onto the main character. It felt like it was missing that initial hook to really pull me in. ### What Works Well Despite the rocky start, the story does have its strengths. I appreciated the author's choice to depict a mature relationship dynamic between the main characters. The concept of a reversible couple, where both partners are comfortable topping and bottoming, felt refreshing and more realistic than some of the rigid power dynamics often seen in BL novels. I also liked how the MC showed resilience in the face of adversity, trying to rebuild his career after a major scandal. The author's decision not to have the ex-boyfriend return was a great choice. ### Areas of Concern I think the pacing could have been improved. Several readers commented that the ending felt rushed and that the story as a whole could have benefited from more detailed development, especially within the showbiz setting. I also feel like more humor could have been added to the story. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Several reviews mention plot points that could spoil your reading experience, so proceed with caution! One reviewer mentioned the ML's actions while the MC was drunk. Another criticizes the ending for a side couple, feeling it was rushed and unfulfilling. ### Final Verdict "Later On, I Was Known As A Fake Actor!" has potential, and the core relationship dynamics are interesting. However, the pacing issues and some questionable character choices hold it back from being a truly outstanding read. If you're looking for a quick read with a mature relationship and don't mind some abrupt plot developments, this might be worth checking out. I'd give it a tentative 3.5 out of 5 stars.
