♪Opening

 

 

Title- 3/5

 

Not effective enough; Did not trigger or prick my curiosity

❀ The word 'love' should be capitalized; Entire title should be 'Idols in Love'

❀ Covered the basics of the story, it's reflective~ ^_^

 

Poster/Background- /5

 

❀ It won't be marked since you have none~ :)

 

●Description & Foreword- 3/10

 

❀ Your introduction of the group 'Sentimental' & Bubbles should be in 'Description', not 'Foreword'

❀ Needs to expand more; Don't generalize too much or else readers won't be interested

Relationships? Characters? Don't rely on readers' imagination. The story is yours right? Let them follow your lead

 

 

>>Total: 6/15<<

Creativity/Originality- 6/10

 

❀ I adore the love triangle, and the love at first sight idea. These kind of ideas reoccur in nearly every story I read but as long as they are well written, I don't see a problem.

❀ Having idols fall in love, being attacked by anti-fans etc are not exactly original either. You find these kind of plot lines nearly everywhere.

❀ I wouldn't say you exactly had a BRILLIANT start. It was confusing and I'm not sure the way you experss your thoughts is comprehensible enough.

 

Plot- 11.5/20

 

❀ I'm totally confused as to what kind of storyline your characters are following

❀ Stop including details in brackets! Such info should be covered in the D+F right? Or just elaborate further with more words. Using brackets make me feel like you're unprepared.. T_T

❀ The story lacks background - BG helps readers to get a better insight~

❀ Story Format: sometimes you write like a standard novel, but in later chapters you explained events like diary entries (chp32) Stick to one please~:D

 

Chapter Titles- 2.5/5

 

❀ Most are normal at the max, the rest relate the story but are dull and unexciting

❀ If you decide to put in chapter titles, stick with it throughout

❀ Do not put emoticons, it shows unprofessionism. (Chapter 39- ~.~)

 

Flow- 5.8/10

 

❀ It flow well enough, events connect with each other early chapters

Don't skip significant events; How did Junho and Bubbles start Dating? Why did Wooyoung suddenly marry Bubbles?

Ridiculous time spans? 1 year / 8 years are too long.

 

 

>>Total: 25.8/45<<

♪Expression

 

 

●Characterization- 10/15:

 

❀ Wooyoung and junho are too similar; Lack of individualities

❀ Stop trying to make Bubbles perfect; it's unreaslitic becuase perfection doesn't exist in reality

❀ Include other members too! (should have included brief intros before commencing the plot)

 

 

●Writing Style- 6.8/10

 

❀ POVs change too quickly; Confusing and possibly misleading

❀ No settings? It feels like you’re telling a story instead of me reading the story

Chapter lengths change too drastically from time to time (chp34 LONG), chp37(short)

 

Mechanics- 7/10

 

❀ There are notable mistakes throughout; Be sure to edit chapter before posting! ^^

❀ Watch out for missing words that make sentences complete. E.g. That, if, etc.

❀ Overall you didn't make A LOT of mistakes even thought there are a lot of chapters~ Well Done!

 

 

>>Total: 24.8/35<<

 

 ◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇ 

 

 

●Bonus- 2.8/5

It's not a story where I just cannot put down. In fact I did bored once in a while and I didn't finish it in one sitting. I adore 2PM but the plot overall does not appeal to me... MIANHAE! O_O

@Cuddle: Ahh really? I guess cliff-hangers are essential if you really want to keep the readers interested in your story~ Play with their emotions go go! XD

@Purcupcakes: no problem~ It was my pleasure reading your story~^_^ Ahhh what I meant was, I was able to feel what Nara was feeling. For e.g. when she got hurt by kyu my heart ached along with her! ^_^ And yup that's defo a good thing~ And thank you for crediting! :D:D
