Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell

Ongoing | | 2022 released

So heckin' slow. I've read 27 chapters, and I feel like I've read absolutely nothing. The setting's familiar and all, but it's just so boring at the moment. Not really seeing any character development (not that I expect much this early in the game), but you'd think there'd be SOMETHING to draw you in. There really isn't. The MC's the ruler of hell, and he goes in and out of the gate thing-y to have mini training arcs. T-T

How a Former Pro takes advantage by doing an easy job

Ongoing | | 2022 released

Pretty good. Again, we have the indolent MC who has to work hard in order to live a life without troubles. Looking forward to when he reveals all his cards. About what you’d expect from an action fantasy with convoluted old European ambiance.

I Became A Top Actor Just By Reading Books

Ongoing | | 2019 released

There's a bit of a romance subplot, but it doesn't subtract from the acting (which I read this for)! Enjoyable to see the MC acting in different works and slowly climbing his way up. I'd like to him use his writing skills at least once in his second life, though. There's a bit of drama with other actors here and there, scandals, etc. Has some wholesome (and funny) moments that really make you want shout "Ganbare!" at the MC, haha.

Cheolsu Saves the World

Ongoing | Soosun,T.lee | 2019 released

So interesting! The time loops is an idea I've seen a lot, but I didn't think that it would be good this good. I like that with every life, the MC gets closer and closer to his goal. There's new information. People change. Everything is a little different. He's slowly gathering his own troupe of avengers lmao (his friends). He even grows to trust in order to achieve his goal. Really like how the author displays the MC's changes in mental state. He's also extremely committed to his goal of saving the world. There really is no end to human avarice. Update: So the ending is bittersweet yet emotional…. I liked it, but I only wish the time loop was explained!

The Chaebeol’s Youngest Son

Ongoing | | 2019 released

I'm already reading this on Naver WEBTOON, but I figured I would read it here, since it's so good. Kind of reminds of "Again, My Life" with all the secrecy happening behind closed doors. The MC also has large ambitions and is planning out step by step how to realize his vision. He's greedy, yet he doesn't hide it. He's living his second life, yet he still shows affects to those he holds dear (e.g. his parents). I personally find all the business jargon very interesting, and I'm liking the development of the character relationships.

I am possessed by the Sword God

Ongoing | | 2019 released

Heavy bromance. Refreshing take on the Murim setting. Usually see girl obsessed MCs, but here the MC genuinely wants to grow stronger. Character growth. Both physically and mentally. Dynamic characters. Friendship. Good action. Not bad. Better than I expected, and I look forward to when the MC starts developing an ego.

Judge Lee Han Young

Ongoing | Moon Sung-Ho,Yeon Jae-yung | 2000 released

Really good comic about law! Reminded me of "Again My life" in that the MC is working towards taking down these extremely powerful figures, being a sort of harbinger of justice. Our MC regressed into the past, and he changes the lives of those around him. In both good and bad ways. I'm glad the MC isn't a judge like Judge Cha Moon-sook from Lawless Lawyer, haha. This is more so about fighting with words, you know, political stuff. There might be a romantic subplot brewing, but again, it is not the main focus of the story. Plus, the female characters in the story do play a pivotal role. The MC isn't too one dimensional. Like, he has other sides to him (e.g. Pokémon battle theme ringtone, cute pajamas) which I found to be a pleasant touch to his character. Not too sure why people are saying this should be a BL. Maybe it's because of his "friend," Yoon-hyuk? Yoon-hyuk reminds me of that blond dude from "Medical Return." Haha, anyway, the MC slowly but surely climbs up the social latter and tackles case upon case in order to serve justice whilst operating under the law and all that. Thrilling action. Compelling story and improving art.

Martial Arts Alone

Decent. Art's okay. Seems like there's an FL? The MC's just kind of basic and so is the story. Action is satisfactory, though. If you're going to read this, read it for the fight scenes.
