When the Killer Falls in Love
Hilarious. Cold blooded killer bottom absolutely melts in the face of his love interest. Official post on Lezhin. Two sets of translations here, the second is the official translation. I've bought it all on Lezhin. 1st: 10/26/22, 2nd: 3/4/23
A Link Between Relationships
Shonen-ai, not yaoi Top pursues, CEO top, soul mates, re-encounter, obsessed top, pretenses. It heads in a very toxic direction; everyone needs therapy, get yourselves together. Super toxic for quite awhile, but there's character growth from the top and he eventually tells the bottom everything. At the end, it feels like they'll have a good relationship. Soul mates that have a physical mark/side effects. Official on Tappytoon under "Tied to You." Officials are here. Series info: https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/uel3zzy/tied-to-you 1st: 11/3/22, 2nd: 1/28/22 (Ch. 42?), 3rd: 9/9/23 (starting Ch 36, finished)
How To Talk to my Crush
Unrequited love/pining, re-encounter. Straight(?) top. Official release on Tapas. Doesn't seem to be uncensored anywhere (almost Chinese level censorship on this, not just lightsabors, feels weird tbh).
Cat's Suit, Dog's Tie
Top pursues- although not romantically it is definitely a pursuit. Boss x employee. Slow burn. Official release on Lezhin under "Puss in Suit, Pup in Tie." First 7 chapters here are unofficial (the rest are official), but I've bought up through the chapter 7 on Lezhin so read them there. Ch. 2, page 10 bookmark: look at official translation, I need a screenshot lol
Breath The Same Air
[Complete] Re-encounter, both thought they were straight, both hot-headed. Top never really grew out of a child's way of picking on people he likes and throwing little baby anger tantrums. Official release on Tappytoon. Officials are here. Main story ends at chapter 31, chapters 32-36 are side stories.

Gangster boss top, top pursues, dominant top. Implied soul mates. Season 2 is weirdly short compared to season 1 and feels rushed and confusing, which is disappointing. Everything is answered that I can think of though. [EDIT] Apparently the original Korean version didn't have seasons at all, so the length of both is just what Tappytoon decided to do. Official name: The Words in Your Snare." Official release on Tappytoon [mature], but official chapters are posted here (first 6 chapters are double posted with a scanslation, but the official ones are there too).

On or Off
Status gap/boss x employee. Size difference. Top thought he was straight. Cold top has his heart melted. The interpersonal relationship starts rough with a misunderstanding, but it's quickly corrected and the rest of the story they have a good report. They're a very healthy couple once they get together; incredibly sweet and loving. Unique art style for Korean comics but not bad. American-style comic shading/micropoint, and muted colors, but the art style fits (especially with the ML). This top is pro at hot one-liners. Like wow. Official release on Tappytoon [mature], officials are posted here (but some are a bit blurry), I've purchased it all on Tappytoon. This story strongly deserves some side stories.

Cupid in the Rainbow Trap
Top pursues, assertive top, simp top, fated partners. The ability to see auras. ML got extremely annoying with the controlling behavior in S2 but liked him in S1. Only liked near the end of S2 when there was growth with the side couple, main couple lost my interest. The world weeps for the absence of a side story with the second pairing. Edit: Now licensed in English! Official on Tappytoon, officials are here. Not officially licensed in English. The series is complete in Korean at 50 episodes/season 2 episode 23, and 2 side stories.

Playthings
Status gap, crime family, adopted son x adoptive father. Tbh I'm just going to pretend the kid is a little older. Official on Bilibili under "Demoralized Playthings." This is an unofficial, rough translation, but it's translated farther. 9/15/22
