The Prince of Myolyeong

Ongoing | 아흐레달 | 2019 released

interesting at first but then it gradually went downhill. i am just so bored with doha's monologues about how desperate he is for mc's attention, like, pathetic much? everytime he comes on screen he is accompanied by his pathetic chapter long excessively dramatic monologues about how he longs for mc, like stoppp itttt. at first it was interesting and kinda pitiful, with doha being angsty over his feelings and mc's playfulness and density, but now it's just annoying bc it's excessive and mc is just unrealistically dense now, like how she does not get that doha have feelings for her after he kissed her neck is beyond me, and the fact that she didn't even ponder over it is just bad writing. the author is trying to stretch out their romance and make readers root for him, but it's getting dragged at this point. and to be honest, why does he even like her so much? she barely talked to him when they were kids?? i dont feel touched at all, bc mc never did anything grand or significant to warrant such steadfast love. biyeol it makes sense, but not doha. christ i just feel bad for him and hamil bc it's obvious who the endgame it.

Steel Under Silk

Ongoing | snob | 2019 released

im giving it an extra star because of the translation quality. i detest the seme and hate a story in which the uke submits to and falls for the person who killed his family, but I am interested as to how the story will unravel, albeit it's a bit slow seme: ruthless, ambitious. very clear-headed and doesn't let his lust (for mc) affect his judgment. whom i assume is the 2nd ml: love and lust for uke. he's willing to leave his job for uke's sake. as it stands, he is wayyy better than ml. edit: welp that aged like milk. he thinks of mc as a whore and rapes him too. he wants mc to be indebted to him and fall in love with him but he's not respecting the mc at all. edit: seems to me the author either wants to prolong the series or hasn't really planned out the revenge on mc's end, so she just supplementing the story with smut. how disappointing. is it just gonna be like those stories when mc and ml get emotionally attached to each other bc of their constant skinship? it's one of the hackneyed plot devices for enemies-to-lovers trope. furthermore, there's a clear power dynamic between them- mc having sex with ml so he can live- so anything mc feels will just be stockhome syndrome.
