Kawaii

I enjoyed reading it and ended up finishing it in one go. <spoiler>The MC has a tragic past because his family exploited him. He always longed for their love and acceptance, but he never received it—not even until the moment he died. He uses those painful experiences as fuel for his acting. Even though he was an old man in his previous life and is now possessing a teenager’s body, deep down he’s still a young, lost boy trying to understand family and relationships—things that seem normal to modern people but feel completely new and precious to him. Read this if you want to watch an old soul in a young body learn what family and love really mean while rising to become a top star.</spoiler>

A faceless genius is so talented

I’ve read up to chapter 25, and I’m really enjoying it so far. The MC was a genius pianist and painter from a young age, but the pressure and expectations left him traumatized, causing him to withdraw from the world for 15 years. When he finally steps outside and begins traveling around the country, he meets different people who unintentionally help him rediscover his love for art. Along the way, he also finds a new talent as a singer-songwriter.

The World Tree Grows on My Mountain in Norway

It’s a heartwarming story about an MC who lives a peaceful life alone in the wilderness with nature and his adorable animal companions. If you like animal-raising novels, relaxing slice-of-life stories, and watching the MC slowly develop his land, this is definitely for you.
