Love this to my very fucking core. I love how interesting the power dynamics are. The boxer holds all the power while seemingly having a really messed up life. The politician? Phew. He’s a mess, serving under a horrible corrupt boss and his career hinging on getting the building. But outwardly, he’s the one who should hold all the power. And him being the bottom??? Obsessed. Feral.
I don’t read Josei but the leading lady is literally Abel from Regas.
Urhmm. There are lines and this last chapter has a toe over the line because wtf??
Also, I’m always scared this story is going to change my brain chemistry for the stranger and Kendrick is proof that it’s working
Fighting myself everyday not to read this. Gotta let the chapters pile up. I can’t handle waiting for chapters.
The cover is doing such a disservice, yes it’s smutty but it also has some plot and cute ass characters. Really really love this and sooooo excited to see how it works out. Jiho is a 10 as well.
This was really funny and sort of enjoyable until it wasn’t. The balance got tilted in favour of concern for the uke versus laughing at his antics.

Absolutely amazing. Extremely well written, conceptualized and realized. The characters are the best part of this and the ensemble are each unique and brilliantly written. What a treasure and a shame it’s so underrated.

Feels wrong to put it here but this BL transcends its bounds. Where it succeeds most isn’t the romance but depicting the life of a man, his friends and families against the backdrop of a 60s Korea, a patriarchal society, a look into a nation recently at war, queer characters within that framework and strict family structures of that time.
9.5/10
Really love this, when it’s good it’s so fucking painfully good. It handles so many themes extremely well, generational trauma against the backdrop of a strict conformist 60s Korea in particular was done so well. Each character had motivations and reasons for being the way they are due to their family and that tying back into family structures, patriarchy etc. That was the most impressive part of the story.
The story of Seungtae’s sisters and his brother, his mother. Shot a spear through my very heart. I could really go on but I’ll just say, it is startlingly clear portrayal of an Asian household.
My biggest critics are with everything surrounding Jinho, who I truly loved. He inspired something in me, I understand why so many were in love with him too. The villians of the story being so obsessed with bordered on the melodramatic. Especially the brother. I don’t love that he ends up with Inhwe.
Oh but Jinho, his transient nature, his zest for the today, his sheer magnetism. I always knew he would leave and the author is absolutely right that in the og timeline, if Sungtae left with him, they probably would not last but I can’t help but wish for a world where they could’ve been happy.
Oh, I know this bouta fuck me up. Can’t wait for it.
On 16 but I really thought I would love this. An exploration of an MC who’s desperate to get back and the struggles he faces is a cool idea but the MC is so …. Not fun to read. He cries a lot and I feel like there needs to be way more of a build up. Everything happens to fast and too slow. Disappointing.
This is Soo my type. My biggest issue is that none of the characters are super compelling (except the ex fiancée). Especially the ML whose only job is to look hot and be possessive (that too in like 3 days). Seen it a million times and I want more from him. I don’t mind arrogant or whatever but please give him more development.
Love love this!! The MC is such an ass in the most endearing way possible. I’m praying it has a little more substance and explores the theme of whether the characters are real to the MC or not.
Josh putting in the work! He looks so good this chapter. I don’t read ABO but this is really exceeding my expectations.
Noveltyw is hella rare in BL and here is one freaky ass one that is absolutely never been done before. The way they hate each other and pull each others hair is perfection.
I love this and I say it with zero guild or irony.
Love this type of yankee characters. And this dynamic but uff, the art is hysterical at times. Also an 8? It’s at least an 8.3 haha.
So excited I can barely contain myself. Love this one, I love the MC. He is the spice in the dish because other stories of this genre have really boring MCs and that’s always been my gripe with Guildmate Next Door.
Netkama Punch is currently untouchable but I am so hopeful that this one will join its rank.
Hang this in the Louvre!!
I knew I would like this and I regret to inform myself that I am in love with it. Have to prepare myself for angst next season.
Uhm… the ML is fucking foul. He is so pushy and rapey and literally no discernible reason for the MC to like him. I read about 15 chapters in and I cannot stand it. The fact that he just ends up sleeping with the gross ass Ml multiple times and we don’t even get to understand why??
What a disappointment.
