•Summary: [With a weak personality, Yuzuru is always by himself and treated as a ghost. He quietly goes through life until one day, he’s caught by his kouhai, Kyoya Tachibana. Kyoya, who belongs to the “winners” asks, “Want to be my sex-friend?” Though Yuzuru is initially against the idea, he is intrigued by the occasional glimpses of Kyoya’s sad facial expressions. A love story between a twisted selfish boy and an insecure hidden beauty •My Ratings: story - 2/10 relationship - 1/10 overall - 4/10 recommend - no •My Thoughts: Yuzuru is very much a pushover, Kyoya is obnoxious. I hate their dynamic so much. The "well he said no but im gonna keep pushing and not listen" is imo the worst troupe in fiction, and its so problematic. The fact the "rape" tag is casually thrown in there between all the "cute, sexy, hot" in popular tags is personally mortifying.

•Summary: [Every night at 10, Dong-gyun locks himself up in his room, grabs a box of tissues, and watches a live cam boy show hosted by Alex, a BJ (broadcast jockey). One night, Dong-gyun downs too many drinks at a school networking event and passes out. When he wakes up, he’s in bed staring up at a shirtless hunk. A hunk who looks an awful lot like...Alex.] •My Ratings: story - 5/10 relationship - 5/10 overall - 5/10 recommend - eh •My Thoughts: It's one of the most well known bl out there, but it's quite honestly just ok. I don't like Alex, and his character development is so jarring and fast its hard to accept. They're a cute couple in the extras but I wish the development had been stretched out more, and faster. I wish I could give 2 ½

Lady Hyewon harbors a few terrible secrets of her own...] •My Ratings: story - 7/10 relationship - 9/10 overall - 8/10 recommend - yes •My Thoughts: The endgame relationship was so cute, I loved their dynamic. It's pretty long bc it's a web comic but it defo doesn't dissapoint

•Summary: [There are a few unusual things about Cafe Goyo. Number one, their coffee sucks. Number two, their customers never order off the menu. And number three, Yohan, the cafe manager, is deaf. So when Soohwa joins as a part-timer, though he is not expected to learn how to make good coffee, he is asked to expand his sign language vocabulary beyond the words, “higher,” “pay,” and “please.” But when Yohan offers to give him private lessons, Soohwa is reluctant. Not because he doesn’t want to study, but because he has a “hard” time around Yohan. Like, literally. He gets hard. Whenever he hears Yohan’s deep, sexy voice.] •My Ratings: story - 8/10 relationship - 10/10 overall - 9/10 recommend - yes •My Thoughts: This it's like one of the icons of bl. Yohan's deafness is portrayed well, and I'm so happy it's not disrespected. Yohan and Soohwa become so frigging cute as a couple.

For me to hit on you, that is.”] •My Ratings: story - 8/10 relationship - 9/10 overall - 9/10 recommend - yes •My Thoughts: The story was a little hard to follow at times ngl, but the relationship became so cute, I'm happy they cleared up their misunderstanding instead of letting it drag on
