so i read this story already knowing that the male lead, cesar, was a walking black flag. he was described as a really bad romantic partner—and i agree. i don’t think cesar is a good person, let alone a good romantic partner, but i like that the main character is able to recognize that cesar is the way he is because of his upbringing and still empathizes with him. it also makes sense that the main character would think that way, considering his mother had a similar level of rationality when it came to his own existence—since she literally fell in love with a mafia leader too. honestly, i had a lot of giggles. i laughed a bunch while reading, and the art was really nice and consistent. the storyline wasn’t bad either. the ending of the main story totally threw me through a loop—i didn’t even realize it was the end. i was like, what the fuck? i’m only halfway through. but the side story spinoff was really good. my only concern is… what the fuck is gonna happen with the hits on both of their backs? are they just gonna, like, wait it out until the hit disappears or something? i’m very confused—but knowing them, they’ll probably find a way to make it work. ultimately, lee-won and cesar are very cute, even if their relationship is kind of toxic.

this was an absolutely amazing read. the plot is phenomenal—everything connects so beautifully and with so much intention. it’s a really emotional story; i definitely cried more than once. the art is absolutely stunning too, which made it not just a great story but also a gorgeous visual experience. the romance is super cute and develops at a really nice pace. honestly, i have no complaints. even the short side story was memorable and sweet. overall, i loved the ending and every single aspect of the narrative. if you’re looking for something that tugs at your heartstrings while also offering some introspective moments, this is a perfect choice. i’d honestly love to reread it someday once i’ve forgotten the details just to experience it all over again. i’d totally recommend it to anyone curious about getting into the BL genre.

this is so peak. was so fucking cool of a concept. loved the ending so bad.

chapter 79- for those of you who are and see for an update, I will give you guys the conclusion that I am envisioning: obviously we know that the first prince never killed the empress. I’m pretty sure the general killed the Empress because it’s been implied that he was in love with the twins’s mother and out of spite I’m sure he killed the kings actual love, which was the second empress because he was jealous that the king had stolen his first love from him. I’m not exactly sure anything about the people from the southern region. My only guess is that there is some admiration from the one guy because of a battle or something. I don’t think the first Prince or the second prince really want the throne. It’s obvious that the second prince just wants affection in someway and clearly respects his half siblings. I think the only one that genuinely is interested in the throne is the sister. I’m not exactly sure how everything will play out, but I don’t doubt the two of them getting married or a happy ending.

wow. this was quite the read. i initially went into this story for the romance—i was really only after that aspect—but what kept me reading were the unique qualities of the story itself. i found myself enjoying every chapter because it explored real-world issues in a digestible way, while also handling them with a lot of care and appropriateness. some scenes even made me emotional, which is rare for me. i tend to be pretty detached when it comes to certain issues, but without giving any spoilers, there were parts of the story that hit way too close to real life—closer than most stories ever get. one major theme, obviously, dealt with things like racism, prejudice, sexism, and homophobia, and how religion can tie into and influence all of those. for a story that was advertised more as a romance-with-a-college-life-twist featuring animal characteristics, i was genuinely surprised by how deeply it dove into these serious topics. that’s exactly why i ended up putting it in my favorites folder. this definitely isn’t a read for anyone just looking for romance—while romance does exist, it’s far from the focus. it shows up pretty sparingly, and there’s not even a kiss. but what really made me love this story was the emotional impact and how it mirrored so many real-life struggles through a fictional lens. so if you’re looking for something thought-provoking that reflects our society while exploring the dynamics of another, this is absolutely worth reading.

wow this one really surprised me. I did not anticipate enjoying this one that much. I do recall seeing this mentioned on platforms like TikTok, but I never went to read it because I didn’t really know what it was about, but then it got recommended to me through the site that I read stuff on, and the premise is something that I absolutely adore. I love when it is a romance and there is a video game involved. I’ve always had a soft spot for that ever since the anime Sword Art Online. I personally love video games myself, so I love when there’s a combination of romance and video games. ultimately, I think the premise of this was really well done. I really enjoyed the pacing, and the romance made a lot of sense and didn’t feel like it came out of left field. the art was exceptionally beautiful—like, there were times when I was sat admiring how the artist drew the fabric on a shirt, which sounds crazy, but I just really appreciated the time and dedication that it took for even those minor details that a lot of times artists look over. this is definitely one of my favorites, and I would definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to read a good lighthearted story that also is romantic. I think there are no downsides to the story. it was really fulfilling to read, and I’m so so glad it got recommended to me.

I love how this author doesn’t limit the dynamic by making the top have to be bigger than the bottom and vice versa. I just think that the art is really good and I enjoyed the spinoff. I was a bit confused at times because I wasn’t exactly sure what was going on and I felt a little rushed, but overall, I enjoyed it

well, I am at a loss for words for how amazing this was. I saw this in a recommendation on TikTok and I held myself back from reading it because I wanted to really be a good mindset to enjoy it. I didn’t realize how much I would enjoy this one. It is so beautifully written the art is fantastic, and I would even say that the art itself was really well done and how it accurately reflected so many very heavy emotions. It’s very hard to dislike any of the characters which I really enjoy because it feels a lot more of like a real story because you can understand to an extent the actions that every character makes and none of them are inherently evil. They make the wrong choices at times, but I don’t think they’re evil people and it’s so wonderful to see everything play out and how they did the backstory woven very neatly into the present was phenomenally done really there’s not a lot of stories that can accurately show backstory and have a good chunk of it the present and backstory back-and-forth without it being too confusing but this Webtoon did it phenomenally. I felt so many emotions and the gratification that I felt once everything started coming together was absolutely insane. I was giggling, kicking my feet crying at times it was phenomenal and you can kind of see the little minor expressions on the characters faces that indicate early on what happens and gets confirmed later on in the story I just honestly will recommend this to as many peaceful as physically possible. It was amazingly done, and I truly truly truly enjoyed this story so much. I’m so sad that is over but I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to read it!!

the story ended up being really different from what i expected. i had read another work by this author that i really enjoyed, so i wanted to give this one a try—especially since so many people seemed to love it. i wanted to fully enjoy it too, and honestly, i did. there are a lot of elements that were really well done. one of the big critiques people have is that we never actually learn what happened on that snowy day. we don’t know what was said—only that the main character was the one who caused the falling out and walked away first. but whatever was said, it was enough to completely break off what had been a romantic and inseparable bond, pushing them into seven years of no contact. the weight of that day still lingers between them, creating awkward tension even after all that time. the title, best left unwritten, really frames how the entire story works. it reflects how we, as readers, are asked to interact with it. we’re not given the full details because, like the characters themselves eventually realize, maybe it doesn’t need to be revisited. maybe it should stay unwritten. the hurt they experienced wasn’t something that could be fixed with a simple apology or conversation—it was something they had to carry and grow through, not around. it reminded me of when people take shattered plates and turn them into art, not by hiding the cracks but by emphasizing them. it’s about transformation, not erasure. and i think that was done really beautifully and tastefully here. i know some readers were frustrated by the gaps in the story, and yeah, i think the relationship could’ve used a bit more development early on. but overall, i really enjoyed it. the art was well done and stayed pretty consistent, and the message behind it all really stuck with me.
