Assistant Manager Kim Hates Idols

Kim Iwol, a dedicated fifth-year employee at Hanpyeong Industries, has spent years juggling his office duties with an unpaid second job: managing the fan activities for his manager’s daughter’s favorite idol group. After collapsing from exhaustion upon hearing the group’s sudden disbandment, he awakens in the past, revived as his twenty-year-old self. He is presented with a single, daunting opportunity to prevent his sister’s tragic fate: he must successfully debut as a member of the very group he once supported, SPARK. Failure means an inescapable return to his old corporate life. Using the relentless perseverance and unconventional skills gained from years of fandom and office politics, Kim Iwol embarks on a mission to debut with one goal in mind—to secure his future and then immediately resign.
