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.

Touch Up

Complete | Bin,Guwol | 2022 released

A story about healing. In every sense of the word. It also depicts the aspect of abandonment and trust issues quite well. The beginning of the story was so good, but I slowly lost interest as the whole thing continued. It felt like every plotline was rushed in order for a new one to start. This had a lot of potential, but was executed poorly in my opinion.

Why Are You So Kind To Everyone Except Me?

Complete | Mallinflower | 2022 released

This story deals with miscommunication as one of the main aspects of the plot. A lot of misunderstandings could have been avoided, if the characters just sat down to talk for a minute. So, the plot was bland, filled with yearning and an overall lack of communication. It wasn't the best in my opinion.

Unfinished Business

Complete | Ant studio | 2022 released

This is fucked up, but it depicts obsession and toxicity so well. This is not for everyone, so proceed with caution. The suspension and all the secrets, that slowly get brought to light, made this even better. To me, this is not romantic at all, and I won't view it as such. But it is a good psychological yaoi where the plot gets wrapped up nicely.

Demon Confinement

A waste of my time. The premise seemed interesting, but nothing happens whatsoever. It ended so abruptly that I don't want to believe its actually finished. The art is pretty, but that's all I can say.

Our Future (Cheok Kong)

Complete | Cheok Kong | 2000 released

This was nothing special in my opinion. The story has supernatural elements that don't get explored enough, and the plot was quite boring to read. The characters were fine, though I have a love-hate relationship with the side couple. There are other stories that handle bdsm much better than what was portrayed here.

The Deepest Confession

Complete | Zeke | 2024 released

Relatively quick read that focuses on unrequited love (but not really). Two people meet again after falling out/going no-contact, and the readers get to see how they navigate their feelings--both good and bad. In the end, they manage to actually communicate and get their happy ending. A lot of alcohol was involved.

December

Complete | samk,merig | 2021 released

This story is centred around overcoming one's past, and how to heal while also letting go of any prejudice. The plot seemed so interesting at the beginning, and the build-up between the characters so done in a nice way. The execution, however, was done poorly, and the ending was incredibly rushed. The plot lines don't get their respective ending. They lack detail and further development.

Keeper of the Pearl

Complete | Dorook | 2019 released

Reincarnation is the central theme in this story. It was interesting at first, but there are so many sub plots throughout the story, a lot of which don't get explored enough. The characters seems one-dimensional and simple and I really wanted more. Overall, it was fine but very fast paced. The art wasn't for me either.
