✰ 5/5 (jinhyuk + heechan ) + classmates to (somewhat) friends to flings? to strangers to finally lovers! MC's a studious student who deems himself as a bystander in the events of bullying within the classroom. ML is considered a "perpetrator" in the eyes of everyone else, but a victim in MC's as he's the only one who knows about ML's situation at home :')) + this is a reread and omfg i am So sorry for judging this i used to give it a low rating because of the butchered translations after reading it again, i finally got to appreciate its true beauty !!! ( ˶ˊᜊˋ˶) + the plot was pretty heartbreaking... the dialogues were very poetic! and the characters all had profound background and struggles of their own (੭ ˊ^ˋ)੭ + the pacing was just right! the interactions and dynamic between the MCs were very adorable yet melancholic at the same time! lowkey ill-fated, however they still found their way back to each other ᐠ( ᐢ ᵕ ᐢ )ᐟ + domestic violence and bullying were one of the big issues tackled here, but idk if it was properly addressed? we never really got the right justice for the victims ☹️ yeah, ML's dad died. but what if he didn't? ML would've still been a victim all this time which is so sad to ponder on + anyway, i'm so glad that they finally got to express their love and healed one another through it! though it ended on a bittersweet note—with them not being able to get married. i still think that they have a bright future ahead of them ^^ and maybe they got married in the states art is cute too !!

✰ 5/5 (cheongrok ⚕️ + jaegyu ) + neighbors to flings to officially lovers !!!! this might be one of the best short stories i've ever read ( ｡◕‿◕｡♡) + MC was a child actor who slowly lost his reign when rumors and bullshit were publicized about him. he did re-debut as an actor again. unfortunately so, the backlash never died down ML, on the other hand, is a psychotherapist that happens to be his neighbor! ML acted as if he didn't know MC at first since he didn't know how to respond to the interaction. but the real deal is that ML have always been MC's #1 fan since he was still a child + ISTG THEY ARE THE CUTEST COUPLE EVER !!!! i love them so much plsplspls I NEED 50 MORE CHAPTERS + dynamic & pairing is unique! as a psych major, i love how we're being seen here they have Great communication ૮(˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶)ა i love how they swiftly ease each other's worries + for its length, it's surprising that we were able to gather that amount of back story for the MCs! it made me understand both of their perspectives even more + the art is UNREAL! they're both so beautiful (⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎) i love all the relationship between MC's mom & manager too !!! i love how ML still gets shy when MC'd being affectionate with him i love everything about this a must-read !!!! ₍ᐢ⑅•ᴗ•⑅ᐢ₎♡

✰ 5/5 (haruta + kagetora ) + childhood friends to lovers they're So adorable PLEASE! main conflict was how MC's dick was too big so he didn't want to do it with ML yet until after they were already adults + i must admit, ML's lookin' like a freaking child because of his physique but, if we were to ignore that, this story was really really good! tbh, i think the author wanted to show a couple who had contrasting body built. however, i think they exaggerated it a little too much... even ML's dick looks like of a child lowkey + other than that complaint, i thoroughly enjoyed this one! they are so in love! i love pathetic tops like MC :')) get a guy who confesses to you every day >< he did that since they were in elementary bro... he's the sweetest he always put ML's needs first. + i also love the flashbacks where we got to see how their relationship started ૮(˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶)ა their love for each other is truly rooted deeply :(( they always think about the other first before themselves + their friends were also a fun addition as they were so so supportive, along with MC's family (⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎) the art is gorgeous !!! all the characters are very pretty this needs a higher rating frfr!

✰ 5/5 (meguru + kaname ) + classmates to estranged to friends again to lovers! MC is as the title says—a dumb dog ML is a yakuza leader of some sorts they were mutually pining for years LMAO + this is a reread, and i must say, it's such a silly piece MC's loser personality and quirks are such a comedic relief ⸜( •⌄• )⸝ him finding these weird ass jobs has become a running joke between them i really Cannot take him seriously! + i love how nonchalant, yet caring ML is! although he usually goes with MC's whims, he becomes very protective when he feels like those things will bite the MC back in the butt ( ๑•͈ᴗ•͈๑ ) + i usually don't point out smut scenes but their love making scenes are hella HOT !!! like,, they're just so in love with each other >< i liked how the main conflict was about how ML kept this secret from MC. the latter really assured ML that he would love him no matter what + i wish we got more domestic scenes though their lovey-dovey scenes kept getting cut off in the early chapters i badly need a 2nd volume :')) the art is immaculate !!!! i am obsessed with this author's art style at the end of all those chaos, they're just a silly couple ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

✰ 5/5 (takanashi + hiruma ) + classmates to lovers! MC is a class president who always acts levelheaded and composed. however, he also has his cute sides that he usually hides because he's afraid of disappointing others. ML works at a local café while wearing a frog mascot who gives hugs! + this was such an adorable story :(( it was fluffy all throughout the whole thing !! ngl, the development of their relationship was a bit fast. but, i think it was okay since they did keep spending time with each other + this was the author's debut work in japan so for a debut, this was really good !! ᐠ( ᐢ ᵕ ᐢ )ᐟ the problems within MC was properly addressed by ML :)) i wish we got to see more extras though they are so adorable! mayo is the cutest ever + all in all, this is such a great work to reread whenever you just want to feel all wholesome ₍ᐢ..ᐢ₎♡ the art is also gorgeous !!!! all the characters are so pretty >< the dynamic between the two is so cute! simps for each other fr

✰ 5/5 (eunseong + taejeong ) + friends to lovers!

✰ 5/5 (byeol + woon ️) & (taeyang ️ + hyesung ) + both the main and side couple were (a little) enemies to friends to lovers! main couple: MC finds out his brother got hurt because someone "pushed" him off the stairs. the rumoured suspect was ML, who also paid off their bills and even gave a lot of money as compensation + the side couple's story was a bit short, but i like how we already got lots of glimpses of them from the main story! i love how they had like a red string theory trope since they've actually seen e/o since they were little :(( they are so soulmates (T_T) + okay so, this is definitely one of the best bl manhwas i've ever read! LIKE, this is never talked about enough !! it had the best pacing, dynamic, relationship, and communication! everything felt so natural and wholesome <3 i love how healing it is (◞‸◟♡) everyone's a green flag I PROMISE (>ᴗ•) ! + both couples had a great relationship! they were both adorable and domestic i admire both of their relationships i love how each character's personal issues or trauma were addressed properly. ALSO, i would like to mention how the brotherly affection between the MC and his brother was done perfectly! usually, bl authors would make it weird and borderline incestuous. but for this, it was so Pure (◍•ᴗ•◍) + i just love everything about this story :')) it had the right amount of conflict, sweetness, and growth. i love how we got to see three years of development between all the characters! ᐠ( ᐢ ᵕ ᐢ )ᐟ the art is gorgeous too !!! i am obsessed with their chibis, especially ML's his is sooooo cute >< i would definitely reread this in the future! it's a feel-good story ( ˃ ~ ˂ )

✰ 5/5 (sung jinwoo ) + (beru + bellion & igris ⛨ + tusk + iron + kaiser ) + MC is in a world where hunters & beasts exist. he's currently an E-rank hunter (lowest rank). but after stumbling upon a double dungeon, his life gets a 180-degree turn it's fantasy infused with an RPG-like system (>ᴗ•) ! + i don't usually read stuff like this, but the fact that i reread this and even watched the anime say a lot the plot was really intriguing! i Love OP characters so of course i was drawn to MC's immense capabilities (๑¯◡¯๑) + i am soooo attached to MC's shadow soldiers :(( i'm sure beru is everyone's little baby every single one of them is so precious (T_T) i love how we even got to see bits and pieces of their POV in the epilogue chapters + the only thing i disliked about this was the romance aspect... like, the romance between MC & FL was not needed they didn't even interact that much... joohee and jinwoo might even be a better match since their bond goes way back but nonetheless, we still got a cute child out of them i just didn't expect a sequel for the son lol + overall, i really enjoyed this! the art is spectacular the fight scenes were so detailed & each character had their own flair i wish they didn't make the other characters that weak though but i also get it since this is called "solo leveling" (◍•ᴗ•◍) i can't wait for the rest of the chapters to be animated !!! ALSO, stream LEvel by TOMORROW X TOGETHER hehe! my two worlds collided with that song

✰ 5/5 (carnelia + caesar ) + after getting into an accident (of course) MC gets transmigrated as a villainess in the novel she read. she decides to divorce ML in order to avoid her character's ultimate demise. fast forward, ML falls in love with her which shakes everything up—changing her fate! + literally a classic !!!! ૮(˶ᵔᵕᵔ˶)ა one of the most gorgeous couples out there such an easy read (this is a reread hehe) with satisfying plot twists & development + is the war & conflict a bit silly? yeah... greed is such an insane concept istg all of this could've been avoided through communication and humility. but i mean, what's the fun in that + all the characters had their own story and background which made me love them even more emphasis on ML's knights hehe ethan my little baby i love him so much :')) + i also love how both FL & gracie are independent divas !!!! they're always taking initiative (˶ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ˶) ntm how gracie's giving wlw i literally ship her & FL hihi >< one thing that lowkey gave me the ick was how FL kept treating ML as a child LIKE the fact that FL was originally a 25-yr old woman kept replaying in my head I'M SORRY it's a me problem guys LMAO they were very cutesy & had the most adorable twins ( ˃▽˂ ) + another thing, this artist definitely wrote queer characters but i just can't prove it !!! i love how oscar & marquis are so freaking doomed yaoi (>ᴗ•) ! a lot of moments between the characters are ship material—may it be the opposite or same sex lastly, the art style's top tier, man i wish we get more manhwas from artist-nim (*ˊᗜˋ*)
