P: If there was a closet inside a closet, Joohwan would hide there. He's that desperate to hide that he's gay. Still, he's doing a pretty good job at hiding his sexual orientation, on his way to a promotion at his job, and has everything going great...right until he crosses paths with Sihyun during a major presentation for work. Unfortunately, Sihyun is devastatingly attractive. Perhaps attractive enough to drag Joohwan out of the closet... O: The synopsis sounds kinda lame, but this is actually pretty good lol. Nice art and funny.

P: For indie band vocalist Hoyeong, music is everything—his passion, his life, his identity. But when the charismatic CEO of a famous fashion label, Lee Yijun, approaches him with an unexpected offer to model for his brand, Hoyeong’s world is turned upside down. As their creative worlds of music and fashion collide, Ho-Young finds himself drawn into a whirlwind of emotions, desires, and unexpected connections that challenge everything he thought he knew about himself. In the tension between fame and authenticity, will Hoyeong be able to find his true voice? O: Interesting premise... I like their builds. This is a minor nitpick, but sometimes Hoyeong's piercings randomly disappear in a few panels. Also their first time was kinda dubious.

P: Hyunsun, after leading an exceptionally ordinary life, embraces the milestone of turning 40—an age often viewed as the threshold of wisdom, where one is expected to stop drifting and start making meaningful choices. Wishing to start something new before it’s too late, he enrolls in guitar school. There, he encounters the young instructor, Yeoreum, and for the first time, he feels a stirring passion for life. Their connection deepens, igniting a sense of purpose he thought he’d lost. But of course, the world is always full of unexpected turns. As Yeoruem starts to show Hyunsun his wholesome and charming affection, their relationship faces a new situation… O: Unique art, very cozy vibes. The age gap is kinda sus, but they're both technically adults C3 - bro is down bad C4 - LOL THAT SHIRT C7 - :O someone in the comments pointed out that they were actually sitting next to each other in that concert w/o knowing ages ago... that's crazy C8 - AJKSDHFKJDS they really pulled the dream card HAHA C10 - ayooo C11 - oh shit it wrapped around to chapter 1's starting scene :O this felt like a pretty quick development

P: Keigo is a super serious guy, and Shohei, the outgoing one. These two opposites have been best friends since high school and ended up attending the same university. Keigo, who's got a crush on Shohei, gets all twisted up about it and starts using toys to, well, pleasure himself while thinking about Shohei. On the other hand, Shohei gets some tips from an upperclassman about the wonders of self-love and ends up getting a prostate massager out of pure sexual curiosity. And guess who his material is... his best buddy Keigo!? O: Switches are always nice to see!

P: When tragedy strikes and tears young Shinwoo's family apart, the charming Han swoops in like a prince and saves the timid boy with his kindness. So it comes as a huge shock to Shinwoo when his new friend and crush suddenly ghosts him after graduation. Initially, Shinwoo just thinks that Han got tired of him due to his fickle ways. But when the two reunite as adults, it turns out that Han has strangely little memory of their time together. As he slowly recalls their past, however, Han realizes that the quiet boy left a surprisingly deep impact on him in all sorts of unexpected ways. And because Shinwoo is very much his type, he's determined to do whatever it takes to win him over. There's just one unanswered mystery lingering in the air between them: why exactly did Han forget about Shinwoo in the first place? O: Ooh this is really interesting! Nice slow burn. It seems a reason why they drifted apart was probably differing expectations. Shinwoo didn't like to cling to people and especially not to Han as he doesn't want him to get sick of him. The thing with Han is that if he gets sick of something/someone, he'll completely lose interest. Meanwhile Han wanted a bit more proactiveness from Shinwoo and ended up getting jealous of Jeonghyeon and then eventually started brushing him off bruh... :( C13 - LMAOO THIS COMMENT HITS HOME - Poop fart face: "When the guy you kept ignoring ignores you back:" currently at c20

P: Touji had been enjoying a peaceful life alongside his partner, Kyoto. Unexpectedly, he crossed paths with his old high school friend, Yachiyo, during his grandmother's funeral. It had been two long years since they last saw each other, right after Yachiyo's wedding. Their friendship had become distant due to a past incident in high school. "At that moment, I failed to comprehend the significance of it all, and by the time I did, it was already too late—a haunting memory. The emotions that I believed I had let go of resurfaced, engulfing me as we crossed paths once more..." O: This is so well-paced and really drags you in... my only complaints is that the art quality feels like it decreased as the chapters progressed and the ending of volume 1 leaves a lot to be desired... why did it have to end so ambiguously man. I feel like this is missing a little bit that would make it >8.5 I'm so indecisive when it comes to who to root for

P: Aaron Hunter’s got it all. Looks, talent, and he just won the award for best actor. He does have one issue though: trouble sleeping. The only thing that’ll get him to fall asleep is a certain song by a certain someone. And when they finally meet, this is Aaron’s chance to get him to write a new song. But will the mysterious singer accept this deal? And will past traumas become illuminated by their newfound relationship…? O: Looks interesting... might let this marinate for a bit. f/8

Perhaps it was because of this that Jae-chan woke up again 6 years ago…The person I wished to lean on and rely on was such a young person.Woo-jin was much younger and more beautiful than he remembered. Jae-chan made a new plan, this time to become someone who helps Woo-jin and other important people.[SUCCESS PROJECT] Jae-chan has succeeded in all projects except for his love for Woojin.Will he be able to complete this project successfully as well? O: The art is not totally to my taste - sometimes the proportions are off (especially for Woojin with his small head but big body lol), but overall it is ok. This is pretty interesting...
