My Thoughts on Treated Like a Big Shot by Everyone in the Boy Group Survival Show

"Treated Like a Big Shot by Everyone in the Boy Group Survival Show" is a wild ride of misunderstandings and unexpected fame. I went in expecting a fluffy comedy, and while it delivered on that front, it also surprised me with some deeper, more thought-provoking elements.

First Impressions

The premise is simple: a socially awkward guy, Shen Xiu, joins a boy group survival show. Because of his quiet nature and general awkwardness, everyone misinterprets his actions as those of a cool, calm, and collected genius. The "Overlord"-esque level of misunderstanding is pretty hilarious. I found myself laughing out loud at how far the other characters would stretch to explain his behavior.

What Works Well

The humor is definitely a strong point. The sheer ridiculousness of the misunderstandings, combined with Shen Xiu's internal panic, creates some genuinely funny moments. I also appreciated the side characters. While some are more memorable than others, the core group is well-developed and their interactions with Shen Xiu are entertaining. Many readers praised Shen Xiu's personality, finding him cute and endearing despite his social awkwardness. The fast-paced plot keeps things moving, and the story doesn't get bogged down in unnecessary drama.

Areas of Concern

While the novel is mostly lighthearted, I did find myself wishing for a bit more depth in certain areas. The idol aspect of the story seemed to fade into the background after the survival show, which was disappointing. I also felt that some of the side characters could have been fleshed out more. The "twist" at the end, while intriguing, also left me with some unanswered questions and plot holes. The ending felt a bit rushed and esoteric, shifting the tone of the story in a way that didn't quite land for me. Some found the villains cartoonishly evil.

Final Verdict

Overall, "Treated Like a Big Shot by Everyone in the Boy Group Survival Show" is an enjoyable and entertaining read, especially if you're looking for a lighthearted comedy with a unique premise. While it has some flaws, the humor, likeable characters, and fast-paced plot make it a worthwhile experience. Just be prepared for a somewhat underwhelming and confusing ending. I'd recommend it as a fun, casual read that doesn't require too much brainpower.
