Do You Still Like Me?

I FUCKING LOVED THIS THEY WERE SO CUTE Everything about the two suggest maturity and elegance omfg, I also loved the whole pottery and art exhibition setting, it really added to the whole elegant vibe along with their cloaks and suits. I loved how they had the doberman dog, it's such an elegant dog asw, further adds to the whole atmosphere here. Also this being in the UK really makes sense at first I got slightly confused by the narration of their feelings and interactions, I think evth started making sense to me after C15 or sth. Yh i loved the pet, more romances need to include a pet into the narration, it can really add to the relationship dynamic. I just loved how nothing in this was all too that dramatic, some big emotions but that's realistic anyways. I love emotional drama so much, it's way better than creating actual big dramatic events. The knotting scenes were good This is a 5 star on the lower end for me, idk it was really good but normally when I'm reading something, I feel like I get really involved in the story, but with this one it really did feel like a drama so i read it in silence almost, only up until the very end around C45 was I getting riled up. Ig that isn't a criticism but that's why it's a lower 5 star in my eyes

FUCK I RELATE TO JINHYEONG AS A CHARACTER QUITE A LOT, anyways this story is so fucking cute, dare I say it's better than No Home but tbh I haven't read No Home in ages so idk they're both up there though. Damn I love slice of life so much, the characters in here are all so relatable to an extent because of the realistic personalities and thoughts they have, just all the interactions as well all seem natural. Their relationship doesn't seem perfect, but their communication skills are really great. I loved seeing jinhyeongs character development so much and watching him grow more comfortable with what he wants for himself. So sosososos fucking funny at the start, thought it was really sad when we saw his backstory I can't even hate rik tho like I love everyone in t this story, even that dubious incestuous red he'd he's such a loser he's so cute, everyone in this is adorable ugh. Besides that the pace of the story is rly nice, I don't feel that anth gets dragged, I love the storytelling and all the characters, feels like the author rly likes every character of theirs. edit: this isn't better than no home, I was gonna say it was better because of their realistic character profiles, but when we got jinhyeong's sad backstory I fear it was too dramatic for it to be realistic, this isn't criticism tho bc I still really enjoyed those chapters it made me feel like sobbing multiple times. It just meant it wasn't on the same level as No Home because No Home's backstories are more realistic imo.

Punch Drunk Love

Complete | Moscareto , 모스카레토, okdong | 2019 released

i cant exolain why its not five stars in my head, it's super fucking cute though, maybe thats why it felt somewhat nonsensical to me at times, particularly seonwoo's character. Tae Moo is defo my fave he feels super realistic in terms of his thought processes, i almost relate to him. i love how the story goes about explaining their different opinions on matters, and how their relationship develops, though tbh in quite a short time which is what i found unrealsitic. i like how smut is present in this but not a main focus, almost more of an aid for the plot in terms of comedy too. dont rly like the arc where seon woo gets involved with tae moos father bc its kind of silly, but cute anyways. super cute couple, super cute office romance, funny that got me bursting out laughing a couple times, love how depraved his character is lol. a very very very high 4/5 , i love moscareto's works like gosh she has like a really unique twist to the normal romance kind of

Sparkling Baby

Ongoing | Zec | 2023 released

I FUCKING LOVE THIS AUTHOR SHE JUST WRITES DIALOGUE IN SUCH A BLUNT YET NATURAL MANNER, THE DIALOGUE JUST FEELS BOLD AND HONEST IN SUCH A REALISTIC YET NOT FORCED MANNER, SO MUCH TENSION CNA BE BUILT IN SUCH FEW WORDS AND IT'S NOT EVEN LIKE HER ART'S EXTREMELY EXPRESSIVE IT'S JUST GENUINELY GOOD WRITING AND PACING. I love these characters their dynamic is so fucking mutual like idk how to describe it but it just feels equal I am SO GLAD hanjun ended up chasing yujin and it wasn;t the other way round, I love they were selfish at some point in terms of getting the one they want but when it came down to the actual chasing they were each respectful to each other somehow without being too much. BOLD AND EMBRAVENED is a phrase I kept using on so many panels of yujin when he was the one doing the chasing because if he hadn't put himself out there for hanjoon to end up wanting it just wouldn't have succeeded because hanjoon needed that extra push and I love how now you know he doesn't think of taeha, not once does he mention that 'someone he knows' now. Story writing 100000/5 romance 5/5 dialogue 1000000000/5 pacing 1000/5 characters 10000/5. Can i say I just love this author's dialogue like I literally love it so much yh. I'm so convinced I have to reread lover boy now bc I just don't remember anth, it's been 4 yrs since I finished that story, but I'm confident I'll love the characters too because every character this author writes about is complex in such a simple and realistic manner. May this author keep producing these beautiful stories.

Houkago no Etude

VOLUME 4 NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW OMG I NEED IT RNRRNRNRNR this is so much better than healing paradox icl I was hesitant o read this all this time I'm so glad I gave the author's other work a chance this story delves so much more into their emotions and the whole ballet background information is so fun to read, healing paradox focuses more on the relationship itself but not the context surrounding them as much. Wow I love this story, it's super cute and has good pacing, I got a plentiful introduction to each and every side character and I really like the friends they had back in japan, everything has a plentiful explanation/lead up and the romance is well done too. Slight rocky start with not much explanation as to why ichi rocked up minobe's world but they gave plentiful explanation continuously later throughout the story. Everything is so well fleshed out in here and I just love their relationship dynamic and how they're both hard workers and not taking their talent for granted. I wish I had their work ethic wow. I have to say I was shocked how much smut was in this, I expected it to be more like shounen ai but ig there's a reason why this is tagged as yaoi lol. I didn't expect to like the ballet setting so much + rly enjoyed all the little bits after each chapter explaining sth abt ballet, very technical but not too hard to understand bc evths explained! office romance should follow in this story's steps cause smt their jargon is hard to follow

super cute, lowered my previous rating since it's actually got development that comes out of nowhere like it's very fast paced in terms of their feelings being developed, the L word thrown in so casually too, but otherwise it's rly cute how he MC has become a better man after being quite pathetic.

Park Hanhoo's Manager

Complete | KIM TAC | 2000 released

NO FAULTS NO FAULTS HONESTLY I've never loved a backstory more, I initially got a bit miffed whenever they randomly threw in chansol's backstory but tbh it makes sense because it's such a huge part of the story and how he ended up as how he is now. Such a loving and caring MC, dare I say Chansol is my fave ever MC yet. I also tend not to like the pyscho lover too much but Yooem was just so calculative with everything and how he worded the way that they're actually both selfish, but they awlays put each other first in the end like omg my heart, may this type of love harass me I dedass felt robbed that we couldn't see the lead up to their first time doing it I don't even wanna see smut in this story, it'd lowkey ruin it because it's not gonna fit, but it'd have been cute to see Chansol being really shy and then there's the naughty office scenario the author teases us with but never showed.... how mean. Anyways I overall really liked how well thought out the story is, you can really tell the author put a lot of thought into it and I can't believe it's like last out of all her stories, I've not read her others but they can't possibly be that much better. The two in this are like two peas in a pod, selfish love that is still based off of the other ugh how cute, I also LOVED the chibi style in this and all the side characters coz they're all lwk cute and supportive in their own ways. dedass this typa story with these types of characters isn't my usual fave, but the loving and caring Chansol won my heart plus this story has good depth, and good build up. Only criticism I have is that I would have thought Chansol would have a bigger reaction/dilemna over realising Yooem hid how he was Hanhoo this hole time but oh well, they delved so much into his backstory it can make up for that. 'My tomorrow is you' or wtv they say will stick with me
