Steel Under Silk

Ongoing | snob | 2019 released

I can't believe I didn't leave a review for this because I absolutely adored this when I read it. I'm thinking of starting it again after everything that's going on right now (CUET exam). I was on a BL craze back then, reading everything my grubbly hands could take a hold on. And the cover intrigued me because hello? It's so visually appealing. I always check the featured photos first so I could get a feel for the type of story I was getting myself into and I loved it. The top was everything I looked for in this type of BL manhwa so I was thoroughly satisfied but the bottom??!! The bottom was the icing on the cake, cherry on top.. He reminded me so much of Jeonghan from SVT and I was hooked from the get go. I love me a beautiful bottom. The plot itself though it holds its own, it's not the reason I carried on reading it till Ch30.. It was the characters, the dynamic and so forth. I could tell from the get go that the bottom's revenge was futile, that his motivations were misguided, that he was childish but that was one of his charming points. His temper was also another aspect that was adorable and charming even. By this point I was expecting the top to be head over heels in love with him, not knowing which way was left or right but he kept his heads on his shoulders and ngl that deterred me a little bit. It made me realize that this was going to be a slow burn manhwa and right then and there I needed a quick fix so I dropped it to pick it up at a better time. I know people clown on the Shakespearean language that is being used but honestly I find that it elevates the reading experience. The dirty talk is quite an amusing task to read through but nevertheless I enjoyed it.

Misunderstanding

Ongoing | Guji | 2024 released

Oop- this is actually banging?! I didn't expect much but this might be the typa shit I devour. I like both of them, but I feel myself being drawn to the sunbae more? Which is rare for me cuz the bottom usually aren't really what I gravitate towards. Well he is a power bottom so that might add to it but I like that the hierarchy is still there since most BLs just ignore that for whatever reason. Like even though they are the hyung/senior, just cuz they the bottom in the bedroom don't mean shit outside. I like the fact that the top already liked the Sunbae and is a softie (it seems like). And the way the Sunbae just accepts his fate made me chuckle and increased my fondness for him. I like long time unrequited love from the top almost always so love ittt!!

Brother In Law

Complete | Magoo | 2022 released

I like this. I love how messy it gets, sure it seems unnecessary but I looove the drama here. The bro in law is so fascinating to me, I don't think he's like obsessed but definitely a jealous and possesive man. Because of the title I for sure thought they got together after the two were married.. Turns out it's the opposite. They were in a relationship, in love and got into arguments all the time because he prioritised his sister above all else and suggested they take a break.. In the meantime the two suddenly announced that they were getting married. Now he kissed the seme and even sucked him while he was asleep so all this is to have his man to himself. However I was still surprised when we were in the sister's POV, where we're told she fell in love with him at first sight and was the one who proposed as well. The guy even told him that he was still in love with her brother and used to be in a relationship. He even sent his pic the morning after they slept as proof. Clearly this man only see u as an obstacle. The girl also gives homophobic vibeszz..

The smut is top tierr.. I skipped around a bunch so everything is all jumbled up but I assure you I didn't miss a thing. Just fucking and them being horny is the plot... I'm not complaining tho. I like both the couples.. I like how freaky they are.. Jun Pil hyung reminds me a bit of my pookie Cale... Cake would make such a power bottom thinking about it. Is there a fanfic? Oh.. The whole DID thing with the ML made me laugh.. They combined when the uke confessed his feelings and assured him? Yahh right. So I read from Ch1 to 13 and then 50 to 100 ie the end
