A Trace of the Wonder

Complete | 도해늘 | 2019 released

A definite masterpiece. ️ The plot and overall character development was really well written. I love how the author depicted Yiseon's grief and guilt towards his loss realistically. Also, the way Hyeon's affection developed was just chef's kiss. I like how he slowly realized his raw and genuine love for Yiseon over time. The way Yiseon closed the past chapter of his life was really beautiful. I love this story

The Royal Prince's First Love

Complete | Nan Zha Zha Zi, Hao Le Shen Wen Hua | 2000 released

This was a rollercoaster to read. So many things happened. It was a whole chess game between the characters. Cassius and Nazaire may have started on the wrong foot but their attraction for each other was undeniable. ️ I love how they became each other's strength and solace throughout the story. The amnesia arc was quite painful to read but seeing Cassius's panic everytime was hilarious. I'm still sad for Angelo and the prince of Valu I was really hoping for their comeback. Overall it was a great story. The ending was perfect

The God of Pain's Groom

Ongoing | Demonicblackcat, cloverbl | 2000 released

This was a beautiful story. This is some of the rare cases where the 2nd ml is the endgame and I love it so much. ️ Heil is such a green flag that he was definitely the one i'm rooting for since the beginning. Khaol was such a bastard and i'm glad the author didn't force the romance between him and River since he's still and will always be in love with Kaveri. His redemption arc was beautiful though. I love this story so much many kudos to this.

Cradle of Imae

Complete | Mum, RaYuan | 2000 released

Damn I shed a lot of tears for all the characters who died. Especially Hwan and Bohyun. My heart broke so much for them. Also Jaha, Juwon's consort. I can't even fully hate Taeryung since he was just genuinely and deeply in love with Hojung. I'm also relieved Daesun didn't die and was able to stay with Wudo. Most of all, my baby Imae. He was definitely the one who suffered the most. He was the one who stuck by Ryujin since the beginning and i'm glad they got their happy ending. I love this story though I wish there were more chapters to show the aftermath. Nevertheless it was beautiful.

Sadistic Beauty BL Sidestory

Well this is so toxic. Wookyung is just plainly obsessed with Minho in the beginning. He may have developed a sense of twisted dark affection in the later parts, it still doesn't excuse the hell he put Minho through to the point of ****ing himself. The end was better than I expected? I guess considering what Minho went through, it was the only thought that went through his mind that seemed ok.

For My Weirdo

Complete | DO.D | 2000 released

This was painful to read. It was really dark and the way Yoowol's depression was depicted was so realistic. He was gaslighted all his life that he didn't think he deserved an ounce of happiness. Jungwon is such a trashy character. Even though we got his redemption arc, I still can't forgive him. I probably never will. Though I honestly feel sad for him, he deserves to repent for his mistakes. I'm glad Yoowol has Yoon-gyeol. I literally don't blame him for getting revenge for his parents' death coz honestly I would do the same. Yoowol was just someone who got caught up in his parents' mess. I'm really happy he was there for Yoowol till the end. Seeing Yoowol happy and healing with Yoon-gyeol is the best way to end this story. I love them so much.

Minmotion Syndrome

Complete | Niji | 2022 released

Another green flag alpha. Taeyoon is such a keeper. The way he accepted Jae-In and his baggage despite their messy interactions is just so green of him. Jae-In's miscarriage was really heartbreaking. Jeong-hyeok is among the most trashy villains ever, along with that grey haired beta bitch. I hate them so much. I'm glad both Taeyoon and Jae-In were able to they got their happy ending.

Broken Boy

Complete | Doya , DUNDUN , Rieul | 2019 released

Another hard read. It was really heartbreaking. Yoon and Taejoo suffered a lot in the hands of that scum Sehwan and that bastard of a father. Right till the end, Sehwan easily escaped through an easy death. I hate him to the core. Nevertheless, i'm so happy Yoon and Taejoo finally got their happiness together. Seeing them go on with their lives is such a healing therapy for all the hurt and suffering they endured. A beautiful ending to an almost tragic story.

Red-Haired James

Ongoing | Ho Dan Park, C&,C Revolution Inc | 2017 released

Another hidden gem. I love this story. Both James and Henry are just too precious for this world. The way they are still fighting to live the most beautiful version of their lives despite what they've endured in the past is truly admiring. I'm gonna miss them. I love these two so much.

Keeper of the Pearl

Complete | Dorook | 2019 released

I wished I had read this sooner. This was really beautiful. Reincarnation/soulmate tropes are my most fave. Jae moon is such a green flag. I love his and Ji Yeon's dynamics. I actually cried on their past life. Fate was really cruel to them. I'm glad they were able to continue their unfinished love story and also meet their first child. I love their children. Seeing them all grown up makes you feel warm and sentimental. I wish there is a separate story for them. Their family is so precious I love them so much.
