Cinderella Ni Kutsu O
My rating: 7,6/10 It was ok. The FL and the ML were both likable, but I found his daughter to be much more interesting. There was some drama, but it all got resolved a bit too quickly at the end. MEMORY LOSS, DETECTIVE One day, a disheveled woman appeares before a detective claiming to have lost her memory. She only had his business card left. He takes her in and tries to help her, but there seems to be someone who's after her life.
Totsuzen... Kekkon!
My rating: 7/10 It's actually interesting bc of the murder case and the ML isn't an asshole. They both have issues with love and marriage bc of their parents and help each other overcome them. That's sweet. But the ending is rushed. INTERVIEW, MURDER, MARRIAGE A journalist (FL) goes to interview the millionaire bachelor Grant O'Hara (ML) and they visit a festival together. But then she witnesses a murder and takes a photo and accidentally gets married to the ML bc they think it's a play of the festival. She can't return home that way.

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: 4/10 The set-up is good and the start caught my interest but then it gets really rushed. The romance starts with a random kiss and the confession surprised me just as much. It's like the author wanted to wrap it all up nicely and overdid it. BIOGRAPHY, ACTRESS An university professor and historian (FL) gets asked to write the biography of a famous actress by the woman herself. But the actress's son (ML), a man whose father is unknown to the public, is strongly against it.
