It's a solid 5 stars for me. 

It has no boring chaps till the end of S2. 
Everything is done very tastefully and nicely. 
There has been a potential love interest, but so far there's no romance. 
I'm really thankful that they just kept it at a 'potential ' instead of introducing romance immaturly, which made this quite enjoyable and light. 
The flow of the story is good, not at all slow, the characters are good and the progress is good. 
Even tho the actor is covered by the plot armour, it doesn't change the fact that it's good. I mean you can't expect things to not go smoothly when youre literally reading a regression manhwa set in the modern world. 
(persinal preference, i like OP regression /reincarnated /isekai characters, who aren't a pushover) 
I binged it thru the night, couldn't bring myself to keep it down. 
It rarely happens when a non action /adventure manhwa get this interesting without making things heavy

I feel tired rn a month ago Rocks

This is the best thing I've ever read on this site. It makes me giddy and kick my feet frequently. My heart races and a smile forms on my face as I scroll through this story. The art is amazing, the plot is as well. 

It's like a breath of fresh air when the MC isn't someone you hate, when he accomplishes something you feel proud. He's so nice, but not a pushover.
Im just going off a rant at this point, 10/10!

It starts good, is more nonsense later on tho. The MC is very skilled, but somehow isn't used to being popular??
How could he be such a good actor in his past life, but not being used to fans?
Also one girl is just very annoying, forced on to the mc by the author and has the role of "being cute" there. She acts like a jealous kid.

91 chapters and the story is still fantastic and I cant wait to see even more.
Objectively speaking (writing?) the story keeps a nice pace with new plots coming up as soon as the old ones are about to finish. It does very well what its intented to do: a story about an actor having a second chance in life.
Characterwise I' say that MC is a very heavy case of mary sue that can do everything to the point that the excuse of 'i lived it before' becomes ridiculous as no one that was as bad as he was in previous life would know and do as good as he does now, but that is the only plothole I've found so far. What impresses me is that even thou he is a mary sue, the MC is STILL open to development and constantly learn new things and ajust to others benefit. All in all his charisma and development greatly overcome the mary sue part.
That being said, other side characters are NOT FORGOTTEN. WOW. Thats something rare for this story category. Almost all of the side characters like the mom and director and actresses actually have their own thing that dont revolve around the MC. 
So yeah. This is a 10/10 story with a 10/10 characters. I recomend to everyone

!!! I'm rating this Manhwa based on the official translation!!! 
That's said the translation in this site isn't good expecially for the first season, so go read it somewhere else because it's really worth it. ❤️
If you search online for the official translation you'll really find a gem. Highly recommended, one of my favorite.

Masterpiece, no more, no less.

Art: 10/10 Solid art. Amazing at represention of emotion and getting you to feel what the characters are thinking.
Story: -/- I don't think i can rate this, this is probably one of the more gripping, emotional, unique and amazing stories i have read in a while
Characters: 10/10 G**, they are amazing, everyone has an interesting backstory as well as their own unique thoughts and feel very unique as compared to other series.

Read it. it's an amazing ride.

  try 'Medical Return'. Ita basically the same thing of an old professional returning time and doing better, but its a doctor instead of an actor. Its also finished so you can read the whole thing

You learn how the film/theater industry in Korea works. Besides that, a wonderful manhwa, a masterpiece

the tagging of genres in mangabuddy isn't really good. It's usually just plain of simple ones, like 'Manwha. Action. Romance.'
.
And i thought the title enough it was obvious?

Well, there we have it folks, an insomniac reading at 2:32 AM because they were bored, instead of attempting to go to sleep...
