My rating: 6/10 It's not a normal teacher student romance, the reincarnation theme gives it a dark undertone. Their history is interesting but I don't ship them, they just gloss over the fact that his "love" started with a twisted unrequited obsession. I like the 2 ML much more. And the ending is kinda open, u don't get closure. SCHOOL LIFE, REINCARNATION The FL lives in a boarding house with her mother and finds out that her new English teacher (ML) is the new boarder there. He seems kinda mysterious and interested in her. Meanwhile she gets entangled with the popular guy in class.

My rating: 9,5/10 It's a serious story addressing alcoholism, domestic abuse and the consequences from the child's/teenager's pov. It's scary good and had me invested. The couple bonds bc of their similar experiences. HIGH SCHOOL, DOMESTIC ABUSE A high school girl who lives with her abusive father, her neglecting mother and her little brother can't say no out of fear of being abandoned. But then the "bad boy" of her class finds out about her home life.
