Description
Berlin is a member of the boy group Skye. After debuting for two years, Berlin has been keeping a secret – his teammates are not human. Jiang Suran who always sports silver hair, has fans complaining that the company keeps bleaching the kids’ hair, as they’ve never seen his natural black hair since debut. Berlin quietly thinks: He is a mermaid, of noble pure blood, born with silver hair. The company is not mistreating the members, it would be better to issue a statement early on to clarify that he is just prone to premature graying. When asked about his favorite color in an interview, the harmless-looking Hua Yan smilingly squints his eyes: “Red, I like red.” Berlin: I hope the fans never find out that as a vampire, Hua Yan’s only interest in red is the color of blood. On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival gala, the restless Wu Hengyao refused to eat mooncakes during a livestream, deeply hating sweet foods: “I hate sweets.” Berlin silently moved the mooncakes over and ate them: Sweets are not guilty, don’t transfer your anger, you’re clearly just disliking the moon. Pale-faced Han Yuezhe, whose physical condition the fans are always worried about, is notorious as a sports waste on variety shows. Berlin: Can the abyss demon be even lazier? He can just lounge around in the same spot for ten thousand years. To make him teleport and play tasks with humans, he might need to pay a few delicious souls. As for Berlin himself, he doesn’t seem to have anything extraordinary compared to his teammates, except that he can see everyone’s affection levels. The only thing that seems a bit off is… everyone’s affection levels towards him are surprisingly high. He stared pensively at the “99” above his teammates’ heads for the 101st time. Apparently, my non-human teammates all seem to have a bit of interest in me. I hope they hold it in and never say it out loud. Because if I reject their confessions, I might get bitten by a werewolf, cursed by a demon, drained by a vampire, or dragged back to the sea by a mermaid. Berlin: I’m just an ordinary everyman, don’t open any weird side quests for me. Later, Berlin, who had gotten used to everyone liking him, encountered a strange person. The affection level above his head was a stark 0.

My Thoughts on Supernatural Idols
"Supernatural Idols" pulled me in with its intriguing premise: a boy group member who can see people's affection levels for him. It's a blend of the entertainment world with supernatural elements, a combination I often find irresistible. While it wasn't perfect, it offered a genuinely enjoyable reading experience.
First Impressions
The concept of Berlin and his affection meter is immediately captivating. You can't help but wonder about the origins of his power and how it shapes his relationships. The initial setup, with multiple potential love interests vying for his attention, definitely hooked me. I was eager to see how the author would navigate the complexities of a reverse harem situation and who would ultimately win Berlin's heart.
What Works Well
The romance is undoubtedly the strongest aspect of this novel. It's fluffy, consensual, and mutual, which is always a huge plus in my book. The chosen love interest, Cecil, offers a refreshing dynamic, starting with zero affection for Berlin and genuinely trying to understand his human life. This felt more grounded and less influenced by Berlin's inherent charm. I also appreciated the focus on emotions, understanding, and acceptance, which added depth to the romantic relationships.
Areas of Concern
While the story is entertaining, it does have some shortcomings. There are definitely some plot holes and unanswered questions that left me wanting more. The origins of Berlin's ability, the fate of certain characters, and the significance of certain plot devices are never fully explained. Additionally, there are moments where the author over-describes Berlin's attractiveness, which can feel repetitive and unnecessary. The backstories of some of the potential love interests also felt rushed and could have been integrated more smoothly into the narrative.

The characters are engaging, the premise is interesting, and the romantic relationships are genuinely heartwarming. Just be prepared to overlook some plot holes and unanswered questions along the way. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a lighthearted and entertaining read with a healthy dose of romance.
