This is a straightforward manhwa with no unnecessary drama or major plot twists. Slice of life and fluff to the max.
It puts a new meaning to what true love is. Hwang Yura’s character development was beautifully paced. Her slow rise to stardom was exhilarating to experience after reading what she’s been through and how she got to where she is now. Kang Seunghyun is mature, understanding, patient (debatable) throughout the story. If “she fell first, but he fell harder” was a manhwa, Daytime Star embodied it magnificently. If you stumble upon this manhwa and is on the fence of whether going for it or not,

The art is absolutely stunning, everything is very detailed and well drawn.
The story follows an unsuccessful actress who by chance meets an A-list actor and their relationship develops from there. They have a healthy relationship with good communication and no unneccessary drama. It's refreshing that there is no rival woman, the only villain is her ex bf. But the main focus is their relationship and her path to success. It's cute and mature, nothing is over the top. The pacing is very good and the story wraps up nicely in the end. I definitely would read it again, even if it's just to look at the art.

This manhwa hands down is one of (if not) the best adult idol/actor manhwa.
Daytime Star didn’t contain any unnecessary drama, and instead focused on the evolution of the main characters’ relationship. (The only drama in the manhwa was involving her ex-bf, which was very minor and collectively wasn’t more than 5 chapters). The hardships both the ML and FL faced were realistic, and were all resolved throughout the manhwa, fitting its perfect length and ensuring it doesn't feel rushed. Its very nice to be able to see a ML who is a green flag occasionally, as lately most MLs are toxic and very pushy towards the relationship. ...

This is a self-insert comic. And not a good one. Rather, this is on the level of telenovelas or Harlequin novels. I’m not being hyperbolic, that is exactly the level of content you can expect.
The story is about the protagonist’s actress career, but that’s secondary. The most important is that there are hunks, and that they are giving her attention. The plot is dime a dozen, the characters have no depth, it’s the usual “all important people are beautiful” writing, simply a land of fantasy that tries to pass of as real life. There's nothing about the characters that makes you say "wow, interesting, I ...

The art is absolutely stunning and the main couple is adorable. I love seeing healthy adult relationships, so if you're looking for a good josei give this a read. I also always like when a coworker romance scenario is done in a more unique / interesting field, in this case the entertainment industry since the two main characters are actors. It's cute and mature and there are drama elements throughout the story that were interesting, nothing ever felt over the top or too dramatic. So far I don't have any big complaints and am really enjoying this, can't wait to read more.

Daytime Star is your typical Cinderella story in modern Hallyuwood, shown in rose-tinted glasses for the perfect webtoon equivalent of your average opposites attract (SES edition) K-drama.
As a romance, this manhwa was meh. The story and characters for that matter, couldn't be more typical- but I do appreciate how the FL can stand up for herself every now and then. It's such a shame we couldn't get more of that because we need the ML to save her at every panel. I would've easily rated this story a four because while I enjoy it, I already have had enough K-dramas where the rich and much ... |
