Netizens had been attacking Kim Taehyung one after another, and the whole internet was filled with a sense of satisfaction. At the same time, the subject of this scandal was watching the animated clip that the entire internet community was mocking.
He kept replaying it over and over again. After a while, he finally accepted the fact that he had entered the plot of a melodramatic novel set in the entertainment industry. This was truly... Incredible!
He was not from this world but from an ancient realm of cultivation. Yet, he wasn’t a Taoist practitioner aiming for immortality. Instead, he was a giant iron ladle in the hands of a highly skilled master chef in the world of cultivation.
He may be the first iron ladle to attain consciousness in thousands of years. His body was made of ancient profound iron and possessed its own qi.
Constantly surrounded by abundant qi at the Taoist school, it was not unexpected for him to cultivate spiritual consciousness.
However, who knew how many years it would take to progress from having spiritual consciousness to having a human body. Many spirits never managed to achieve a physical form in their lifetimes. This was even more agonizing than not having consciousness at all.
But shortly after gaining spiritual consciousness, a bolt of lightning struck him, transporting him into the novel "Real and Fake Young Master: Loved by the Top Celebrity." He was now Kim Taehyung, the true young master of the Kim family that got exchanged at the hospital by mistake. While the fake Kim young master was the protagonist.
Despite being the fake young master, he was loved by everyone in the Kim family more than the real one.
Using his powerful protagonist aura, he captivated numerous men. And amongst all the men he had enthralled, the current top superstar was the male lead.
The male lead and the fake young master engaged in more than three hundred chapters of infatuation and emotional turmoil, a tangle of mutual pursuit and emotional struggles. They were enmeshed in a love-hate relationship.
The real young master merely served as a foil to the heroine. Kim Taehyung was narrow-minded, lacked intellect, and envied everything about the heroine, including the male lead.
Later in the plot, he even married his partially paralyzed uncle, Jeon Jungkook, in an attempt to get close to the male lead and take revenge on the heroine. The original host devoted herself to sabotaging the relationship between the hero and heroine, but it ultimately led to a tragic ending.
He was abandoned by both the Jeon and Kim families, left ruined and full of resentment, completing his life as a disposable side character.
This time, the incident that led to his mockery by netizens happened at the opening ceremony of a hotel. The original Kim Taehyung had some wine and, in his borrowed sense of boldness, tried to confess to the male lead, who was about to leave, outside the hotel.
The male lead, as a top celebrity, couldn't be seen physically entangled with a person, so he roughly brushed his hand aside with a face of disgust. The original Kim Taehyung fell to the ground in extreme embarrassment as the male lead donned his sunglasses, sat in his sports car, and drove away.
Moreover, everything was recorded by the male lead's countless fans and turned into a widely circulated joke.
For the iron ladle spirit—or rather, the now Kim Taehyung—this was quite a debacle.
As Kim Taehyung sorted out the information in his mind, he had only one thought— 'Thank the heavens and earth, and thank goodness for that thunderstrike!' Without it, how could he have a human body? And a male one, at that!
Back when he was in the Taoist kitchen, rough and burly men were everywhere, none of the cute and delicate junior sisters ever ventured near the kitchen. At the time, he secretly vowed to become a delicate human in the future.
Perhaps, his earnest wish had been heard by some higher power, granting him this chance.
