Sometimes I just want a seme to treat the uke right
Youd make me rlly happy by recommending this list :))
I've always liked body-swap and historical BLs and this was all the goodies packed into one and more. Sunwoo (the emperor)is a complete green flag, which is a miracle since whenever there are extreme power dynamics in a relationship, it quickly turns toxic and rapey in such stories. Sunwoo is seriously one of the best MLs. He realized his feelings early, and made them very clear but never forced Soyoung to accept them. He made sure there were no misunderstandings. The story had no plot holes, there was not dragging or plot and every character had their own personality. The villain was actually someone worthy of being a truly despicable yet intelligent person. Both main characters had their own strengths which bloomed throughout the story.
The only thing I didn't like was how the Emperor's guards blamed Soyoung every time something happened to the emperor. I know they were just concerned but still. In the end, they too were rooting for these two's love lol. Anyway, all in all, a fantastic story. Looking forward to my next re-read.
