    Synopsis:

    As an unknown background member of a boy band with no fame, Su Zhe was abandoned by his company due to having no value worth further investment. They parted ways amicably as he prepared to leave the entertainment industry.

    However, on the very day of his contract termination, Su Zhe inexplicably bound himself to a so-called “Super Idol System” that seemed anything but serious…?!

    This ridiculous system’s daily task? A 10-kilometer run.

    The skill it gave him? Sprinting Level 1???

    …According to our sources, the athlete who broke the national record at the Track and Field Championships is none other than Su Zhe, a former member of the idol boy group “The Third”…?!!!

    [Fans]
    Fans: This record-breaker looks so familiar…
    Fans: …Wait, is this person…????!!!!
    Fans: …I think it’s really our little transparent idol!!!

    Later on…

    [Sports Times]

    Congratulations to our famous sports champion Su Zhe for winning…

    Even after becoming a wildly popular super idol,
    Su Zhe’s feelings remain complicated…
    A certain someone hiding in a dusty corner: …Why doesn’t the synopsis even include my role?

    A happy, mindless, feel-good story~
    Characters’ intelligence won’t exceed the author’s… please don’t mind too much =w=
    Warning: ML is a background character, storyline focuses on career, ML’s appearance frequency can be inferred from the synopsis, ahem _(:з」∠)_
