Our First Day

Complete | Tan geum | 2019 released

This story was okay, but nothing more than that. I didn't find it particularly interesting, but the age gap between the characters is done in a nice way that doesn't depicts one of them as a creep. I didn't like the art very much either, but that is just personal preference. It did ruin the reading experience a little, though.

Crash Into Me

Complete | Re-run | 2019 released

This was an intense story about guilt, acceptance and forgiveness. It involves a character being haunted by their past, and thinking they deserve being treated unfair as well as being abused. I didn't expect it to be this dark, so proceed with caution. Fortunately, the story has a happy ending and the abuser is dealt with accordingly, but was still very hard to get through at certain times.

Trap Trap

Complete | Ichika | 2000 released

A story about overcoming personal fears and letting go of toxic people that don't want the best for you. I was sceptical at first, but the progression of the story and plot got me hooked. It was very interesting too see how the MC develops and tries to deal with some of his issues, while also having the right support system to help him. Very happy that I read until the end.

Full volume

Complete | 알버트,albert,양은지,yang eun ji | 2019 released

I loved this very much. The characters' dynamic is so lovely throughout the story. Dowon's devotion to help Beom, while continuously showing his love and determination, is absolutely to die for. Both of them have detailed backstories that tie very well into the people have become. I love how Beom has a support system even though he's convinced that he needs to handle this on his own. At the same time, I love it when Dowon didn't pressure Beom into a relationship or into admitting his feelings.

ANTI P.T.

Complete | Lee Gpiee | 2000 released

I don't usually read about love triangles, but this story manages to do it well. The progression of the plot was fine and interesting enough, but there are instances in the story that I don't like---Param's first time at the club, Hwi's friend being obnoxious and how Param treated Hwi. It was average but certainly not a bad experience when reading about love triangles. Could have been worse.

False Memories (Lee Gpiee)

Complete | Lee Gpiee | 2000 released

I really liked the plotline of the story, and it really emphasises "don't judge a book by its cover". The story has an element of suspense that I enjoyed, especially when the readers has no idea of knowing when or how Ha-Woon would get his memories back. I do think it ending was rushed, but also that the brother needed jail time.

Love Shuttle

Complete | Im Ae-Ju | 2000 released

I had heard many thing about this story, but I found my reading experience to be average at most. The main couple was interesting to read about, especially when looking at their development and how they get more and more comfortable around each other. The side pairing had potential, but everything was executed poorly in my opinion.

Lucky Paradise

Complete | Kang neuk | 2019 released

A story about toxic love and letting go of people who don't want the best for you. It addresses the process of accepting and letting go of someone you hold dear to your heart. It really tugs on your heartstrings, especially when you see how people pleasing and neglecting yourself becomes such a big part of the characters and plot.

Why not, CEO?!

Complete | Chae-O,Tangeum | 2000 released

This is a story full of well-known tropes that take up the entirety of the plot. It has good potential, but the plot wasn't interesting to me because of how cliche it was. It did have some cute moments in there, but I wanted to see more development overall. The whole thing ended up feeling boring towards the end.

Countdown to Love

Complete | | 2000 released

A very cute story about young love. It has a small element of misunderstanding, but it was done surprisingly well. I loved how we see the relationships develop, and I wanted it to be longer. Really cute.
