Anyone Can Become a Villainess
it’s been awhile since i outright CACKLED like this. this is fucking amazing, man… comedic GOLD—i’m not even kidding. i’m wholly in love with this manhwa and these characters!!! that whole pervert bit nearly had me in seizures. i was laughing so fucking hard i nearly awoke the whole apartment complex. can’t wait ‘til this story’s finished so i can reread it and dieeee all over again. #obsessed
Genius Doctor Lee Moo-jin
i like this. and i’m low-key ECSTATIC about the fact that he’s actually putting in the effort himself. it’d be amazing if he turns out to be an actual medical genius! man, i’m so weak for stories like these. <3 edit: i’m seriously fucking obsessed with this. KING!!!!!
Second life of a Gangster
wow. what an incredible redemption story. he’s worked SO. FUCKING. HARD. to do well and to be a better person. oh joong seok has grown so much since we first started out… i’m so freakin’ proud of his accomplishments, and it’s been amazing seeing this slow and gradual progress of his—genuinely. (it truly has been a process, lol.) this man clearly thought so lowly of himself to the point where he couldn’t distinguish his strengths and capabilities from his flaws. in his eyes, he was just plain trash; undeserving of anything even remotely close to atonement or forgiveness. but man, look at how far he’s come!!! i mean, i absolutely DID see his point—he was human scum—but he’s simply not the same person he once was anymore. that much is clear as day! i’m so, so happy that he’s finally come to realize that for himself. what impressed me the most is the fact that he remained the very person deep within his core. you can clearly tell that ‘high school’ oh joong seok is still ‘post-gangster’ oh joong seok, only matured. i suspect that’s what made his achievements so believable to me. ugh, dude!!! all these efforts he’s made to improve himself!!! i just can’t stop myself from hyping over it. this is what true character development is. it’s inspiring, to be honest. and i love him. LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM. i wish i had a friend like him. and this redemption arc of his has been top-fucking-notch in regards to quality and believability. for what it’s worth, i’ve been SO. IMMERSED. in this manhwa ever since i first started reading it back in november. i’ve rarely come across such an incredibly flawed character with this much positive (both achievable and believable) character development. in the beginning, i seriously thought he’d be irredeemable. i really did. he was such a dick! i thought he’d remain a villain ‘til the very end—albeit a villain with a purpose and a slightly improved moral compass, at best. but he’s become a genuinely good person, and that mere fact is moving in itself! obviously, i should’ve given him the benefit of the doubt. i honestly can’t believe it still, lol. the fact that made perfect sense, too!!! that’s the most shocking part of it all to me. i adore, adore, ADORE him. it’s been such a journey. i’ll definitely reread this one of these days. i even stated tearing up at the end! and just like i said earlier, i was unexpectedly moved by his story. the side characters, antagonists and their personal growths have been incredible, too. man, i’m beat. i can’t wait to reread this, seriously. <33
Back to School
it was good! kinda sweet, kinda depressing. mostly depressing, to be honest. haha
Cocoon of the Heart
this shit had me SO. FUCKING. DEPRESSED. it started out weird and their relationship was pretty damn toxic, not gonna lie, but things really changed up eventually and improved over time. i remember liking the ending, too! in the end, it’s a story about mental health and personal growth. can’t recall much about its details or anything like that, but i might actually reread this one day, too.
Woman's Best Friend
I really liked this manhwa! I especially enjoyed the dynamic between the characters, and I also found all of them interesting in their own way, relatable and surprisingly realistic for a comic. I loved the character development and getting to watch them grow and mature—both together and separately as individuals. Overall, it was an appreciable story! The only reason I’m giving it four stars instead of five is because it didn’t really have that ‘wow-factor’. It was good, and I did finish it in one go, but I don’t believe it’s something I’ll read again. (Not for awhile, at least.) Nonetheless, I think it’s worth the read!
101st Female Protagonist
i loved this one. it had some great character development!
Pleasure Principle
the sex was haaawt, yo. but to be honest, there wasn’t much else to the story—unless my memory’s failing me.
