Love for Sale
"Will this make you happy?" Namwoo wakes up one night to find bills sprawled all over his room - along with the hazy memory of a handsome stranger. Even in his wildest dreams, all Namwoo wants is to have enough money to survive each month. Si-eon, on the other hand, has everything he could ever want except happiness. Intrigued by Namwoo's humble wishes, Si-eon offers him the money he wants - the catch being, he has to date him. -->this was a masterpiece - all the characters were so incredibly realistic, their lives were realistic, their pain was realistic, everything about it was relatable; you can literally find pieces of yourself in each and every character. the beginning was slow, but i kept reading, thinking it would be your typical story about a sugar daddy spoiling and doing the deed every other chapter with the protagonist. OH BOY HOW WRONG I WAS. there are the spoiling and smutty parts, obviously, but after the first season, it starts to get deeper and you gain more knowledge about the life of the characters, especially the male lead. at first i thought he was the ultimate Jackass, but i quickly realized that there HAS to be more to it than just personality issues.

If You Hate Me So
Multiple stories that are all very much based on non-con scenarios (full on rape at certain moments) Synopsis (Spoilers): 1. Minjae finds his hobbae hyeongjo jerking off over their hyung (Jinhan) and basically gets bullied into not sharing the infos to anyone - in some moments turns non-con - while they both subconsiously develop feelings for each other while thinking that they are both interested in Jinhan. Minjae knows this earlier, Hyeo doesn't and just realizes this after it turns out that Minjae didn't spread the rumors about him and Jinhan - instead it was Kiseon who stalks hyung. They get together and confess and deal with some of the non-con aftermath 2. Hyung gets interested in fucking Kiseon who turns him down continuously and after he fucks around to provoke him they actually get together - but they argue a lot bc hyung has his history of sleeping around and Kiseon turns sceptical, Kiseon is ready to leave etc. 3. Hyesung and Dojin (Love is an allusion parallel): Hyesung who had his gay virginity taken by hyung has a massive downward spiral after he finds Kiseon with Hyung and gets drugged (wtf again) by the blonde asshole friend and get his cherry popped by dojin in a 3P. A few month later he meets him again after getting kicked out and they have sex again, Dojin kinda falls for him and that shit begins - the only couple that doesn't fully end up together
