I don’t know why, but I really miss the classic yaoi manhwas where the dark-haired, cold, and domineering rich/ normal seme would completely captivate and dominate the breathtakingly beautiful, light-haired uke either twink/burly..

However, there's been a shift in recent trends where dark-haired, sexy, and powerful men are now being portrayed as bottoms—just like in the new manhwa Boundaries of Deception, flower of the sun


I just can’t understand it! Dark haired especially Black-haired, majestic, and charismatic semes always give me butterflies, while light-haired ones feel kind of bland in that role.

Does anyone else feel the same way?

    If u like dark haired seme and blonde uke, read Driver's High, kinda angsty and only 20+ chapters but worth it

    it's all a matter of taste, personally i prefer ukes with short hair and to be buff/thick, which while it's a little more popular now it's still not as popular as the ones you described ╥﹏╥ due to these peculiar standards i have i'm forced to read the same things over and over again until a new story is posted lmao. so don't give up, since you like the classic yaoi couple there will always be material that will be to your liking ^^

    It is so meeeeee..

    I don't differentiate between the buff or twink , short hair or long hair...
    It just have to be the sharp cold dom kind of those ceos and northern duke..
    Who get softer with time..
    Or cheerful ones are okay too but keeping a little possessiveness.
    And dark hair is must for me..

    Ukes with short hair…

    Wait, do you mean military-style cuts?!

    Wow, that’s actually pretty surprising! Look, I don’t mean any disrespect, but most people—actually, the vast majority—tend to prefer slightly longer-haired ukes, whether it’s the CEO-style sleek cut or even delicate, feminine long hair.

    So, this is my first time meeting someone who’s into the military-style look for ukes!

    I swear I’m not trying to be rude, but I’m seriously itching with curiosity—do you, by any chance, have a crush on someone with that hairstyle?!

    i'm aware that is uncommon, as most mangas/manhwas have ukes with feminine qualities and somewhat long hair, always with bangs for some reason. to the point they all look the same to me lol!

    i don't just mean military style cuts, i just like ukes with short hair or "spiky hair", i don't think i have a particular favorite style but if i had to explain it with a character it would be the protagonist of back to school, as an example. if you see what i read, the hairstyle varies a lot, i think as long as it doesn't touches the neck it's okay??? idk really

    lmao! no, i don't. actually i like men and women with long hair, which is why i tend to be into metalheads and alternative people. the obsession i have with short hair only comes to the ukes i like to read, other fictional characters and kpop idols i find adorable (like the dude from my pfp, mingi from ateez) if i had to analyze it i think it's because i wish i could look like those dudes(?)

    i hope i made sense. and you're not rude btw! it was fun to answer hehe (=・ω・=)
