straight romance with likable leads

I've seen my fair share of boring mary sues and unlikable female leads who make all the wrong decisions. So, to spare you the pain of reading clichéd stories with irritating characters, here is a list of romance webtoons/mangas with endearing, unique or admirable female leads that you can't help but root for.

Despite the odd title, it’s a serious story about the woes of being a woman who’s turning 30. From the constant pressure to get married, to the stress of working, this story follows the FL’s struggles as she comes to terms with “losing her youth” and falling out of love (and in love again)

There's something about this one that I absolutely LOVE. Maybe it's bc I'm a sucker for stories where the male lead falls first.
