Yunho runs out from shock and bumps into a mysterious man, Hanwool who happens to be a mythical tiger. When they run into each other, Hanwool senses a sweet scent coming from Yunho, and although Hanwoo has never been interested in humans he finds himself intrigued by Yunho." ✰ Supernatural, Mythical Being ✰ Singer x Mythical Tiger (lol) ⤷ this was super cuteee. i love both the seme and uke. the uke is sooo pretty and just like, normal. not over the top/annoying/dramatic like a lot of ukes. it was a bit of push and pull at the beginning, starting off not liking each other at all, then slowly liking each other, then they just naturally got together and hanwool became extremely protective and possessive. LOVE

It doesn’t take long, though, for Ha-woon to betray him in a terrible way, and Wan discovers Ha-woon might be more devil than angel. But then an accident happens that gives Wan a second chance at friendship with his angel. And it all starts with one big, fat lie. " ✰ Student x Student ✰ Amnesia ✰ TW: Abuse, Manipulation ⤷ so it was heavily hinted that the brother molested pink hair, and we saw multiple instances of hyung assaulting him and attempting to m u r d e r his boyfriend, and his punishment was...a career demotion? bruh.mp3

This world, filled with truth, goodness, and beauty, has a resounding name: Niangzi!" ✰ Actor x Actor ✰ Funny Misunderstanding ✰ Light-Hearted, Funny ⤷ i wish i knew more about chinese pop culture/history bc i know some of these jokes would have been hits. it was a super funny/cute read, and the art was pretty. i didn't completely get/appreciate the humor until like 50% through, which i regret. i was taking everything too seriously but that's just my drama-loving self. also i was confused when they got together, i was like "wait, where was the confession?" i completely forgot not all webtoons need to follow yaoi-logic, which is some dramatic confession of love. i read the novel alongside this for about 50% of it. the dick biting scene was so funny lmfao. i think if this was yaoi like the novel i would rate it higher, but they cut out all the smut smh. i know u can see the smut on bilibili but after many failed attempts at accessing the chinese website i gave up.

ML basically mutually likes MC since HS but can't admit it to himself, so they go years, transitioning to adulthood, trying to maintain contact, until ML is ready to admit how he feels.

"A collection of oneshots with a unique twist to some typical BL tropes." ✰ Anthology, One Shots ⤷ i like psychological stories but it was kind of boring after the first story, plus the translation is a little confusing.
