My Thoughts on Second Try Idol
"Second Try Idol" promised a fun ride through the familiar, yet potentially refreshing, world of idol comebacks. I dove in hoping for a lighthearted story about chasing dreams, and while I found aspects to enjoy, I also had some reservations.
First Impressions
The premise is classic: a former idol, denied his initial chance due to injury, gets a second shot at stardom through regression. He retains his knowledge and skills, setting the stage for a smooth climb to the top. The initial chapters pulled me in with the promise of a slightly different take on the idol genre, particularly the MC's background as a former idol trainer. This offered a unique perspective that I was eager to see explored.
What Works Well
The novel excels in its execution of the idol group dynamics. The story avoids unnecessary drama, and the portrayal of the group's journey, from practice to performances and reality show appearances, feels relatively realistic. I particularly appreciated that the author included original lyrics and showcased the struggles the group faces, avoiding the "smooth sailing" trope that plagues similar stories. The characters are distinct, with clearly defined roles within the group, making it easy to remember who is who. The comedic undertones add a layer of entertainment, setting this group apart from others in the genre.
Areas of Concern
Despite its strengths, I found myself wanting more depth. The MC, while determined, felt somewhat passive, and his regression didn't seem to add significant weight to the plot. While the story has a "flower road" feel, it lacks tension. The problems the MC faces are resolved quickly and easily, making it difficult to feel invested in his journey. The writing style, while competent, can be a bit repetitive, with characters having similar personalities and voices. This made it hard to connect with the group members on a deeper level. Also, while the author tries to add a bit of English to the novel, it is often awkward.
Final Verdict
"Second Try Idol" is a solid, enjoyable read if you're looking for a lighthearted idol story. However, if you crave depth, complex characters, and high-stakes drama, this novel might leave you wanting more. It's a pleasant distraction, but not particularly memorable. I'd recommend giving it a try if you're a fan of the genre, but don't expect a groundbreaking experience.
