Ex-Husband, He’s Honest and Simple Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Ex-Husband, He’s Honest and Simple
"Ex-Husband, He’s Honest and Simple" promised a comedic and romantic journey through the showbiz world, and while it delivered on some fronts, I found myself ultimately conflicted. The premise of transmigration into a "s*umbag" character is always a tricky one, and this novel definitely had its highs and lows in navigating that trope.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the slice-of-life elements and the potential for humor. The dynamic between the MC and ML, despite its initial imbalance, had moments that genuinely made me smile. The showbiz setting also added a layer of intrigue, and I was curious to see how the MC would navigate his new life and reputation.
What Works Well
The MC's character is a definite highlight. He's portrayed as morally upright and trying his best to atone for the past actions of the body he now inhabits. This creates a sense of sympathy and makes you root for him to succeed. There's a sweetness to his interactions, particularly when he's given a chance to showcase his genuine personality. Some readers have also praised the comedic timing and lighthearted moments scattered throughout the story, which provided a welcome relief from the more dramatic elements.
Areas of Concern
However, the ML's character became a significant sticking point for me. His overbearing nature and constant references to the MC's ex-husband quickly grew tiresome. I felt that his actions often overshadowed the MC's efforts to improve his image and created a sense of unease. The power dynamics between the two characters felt unbalanced, and at times, even uncomfortable. It was frustrating to see the MC constantly having to endure the ML's behavior, especially given his already difficult situation. The lack of significant consequences for the ML's actions, coupled with the MC's perceived lack of backbone, left me feeling dissatisfied. The translation also had its issues, with pronoun mix-ups and occasional missing content detracting from the overall reading experience.

Final Verdict
While "Ex-Husband, He’s Honest and Simple" has its moments of sweetness and humor, the problematic portrayal of the ML and the uneven power dynamics ultimately prevented me from fully enjoying the story. If you're willing to overlook these issues, it might provide a decent casual read, but I wouldn't consider it a standout in the genre.
