Killing Stalking

Complete | koogi | 2016 released

Honestly I’m… speechless. This was really really good. Props to the author. The art is amazing as well and really sets the mood. The two main characters, one looks disheveled, tiny and like a starved child (even though he’s the older one) and the other is tall, built and handsome. There are ‘romantic’ parts but because of the context, as well as their extremely different appearances, it’s still very uncomfortable. Which I think was done purposefully, as it adds to the twisted feeling of this story. Your humanity will make you feel bad for both characters at times, and even makes you wish they could have a normal romantic relationship. But their relationship is far from normal, and even in the end it’s hard to say for sure what they felt for each other. Was it truly love? Especially on Sangwoos end. Or was it solely just twisted? I loved every minute of this because of the discomfort and conflicting feelings, which is exactly why the author did so well with this.

Dawn of the Dragon

Ongoing | Ma jeung ji | 2019 released

All I’m saying is… this better have a good ending I’m so on edge about the “consequences” that’ll come as the price to pay for the dragon derailing a predetermined fate. I hope it’s nothing too bad, they just deserve to be happy!

Bound to Be Fools

Complete | Gahyun | 2019 released

Welp…. Now I’m depressed. I was by no means ready to have my heart ripped from my chest like this. Fucking fuck. Certainly not the ending I wanted, or even my second and third choice ending, but I can’t say it wasn’t good because it so was.

Mania

Complete | Brothers Without a Tomorrow | 2000 released

Started off good but it started lacking towards the end. Twisted/psychological forsure, but also romance. I didn’t like the ending, both characters got left by everyone they love except each other and then seemingly have 0 problem with it? One character didn’t care to see his son? The other had literally 3 siblings that were kids and was cool with them moving to the states with a new family? lol. Wtf.

A Guy Like You

Complete | Waje | 2016 released

I’m utterly SHOCKED by the amount of hate comments and reviews this got?!!! It was fantastic! The art at the very very beginning (mainly for Siwon) was subpar, but it quickly became very good. Incredibly unique, creative and captivating plot. It kept me on my toes too! Ive noticed that most Lezhin “romance” stories are uncomfortable or psychological/twisted and don’t end on a completely happy ending, so I was happy this one did, it was a nice deviation from the norm. Also the BDSM art? WHOOOOOEY

Following Namsoo To The Bathhouse

Complete | cuke soap | 2000 released

I LOVED this I went into it blind and I’m so glad I did because it blessed me with comedy I didn’t even know I needed. Up till now, I’d never laughed while reading a manga/webcomic, mainly just because the genres I like don’t incorporate much humor. If they do, it’s usually surreal humor (which is more annoying to me than it is funny), or it’s just light and subtle humor. Anyways, I laughed so many times reading this

Ang Ang

Ongoing | Gwendolyn,흰긴 | 2019 released

HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE 10/10 RATING?! THIS IS THE HOTTTTTESSSSSSST SHIT I HAVE EVER EVER EVER READ IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. Dom/Sub relationship with a feminine and delicate looking, beautiful dom and a buff af, intimidating looking ex mercenary sub. This has soared past everything I’ve ever read. It has aggressively put to shame everything that has previously held the title as my #1 favorite work. I can confidently say that I don’t think I’ll find anything better in my lifetime. This is truly the cream of the crop. I could write a whole essay about why and how this is so amazing. Stunning art, stunning storyline, stunning characters, stunning portrayal of the complexity/hardships that comes with creating and maintaining a healthy D/S relationship. The author is clearly knowledgeable and does a great job illustrating the “unseen” realities that go into these relationships.

Abnormal Rommate

The Alpha's Circumstances

Complete | TR | 2022 released

MCs are pretty underdeveloped, especially the alpha. There’s not any character growth, honestly I feel like the alpha MC does the opposite. The only growth I could see at all is maybe from the professor, but they only give us a tiny tiny moment of his POV. Alpha acts more like he has an obsession rather than love for the professor, he doesn’t really try to get to know him. And the beta is physically abusive to the alpha during their relationship, then they both cheat on each other. But honestly, it has potential, so I was surprised that this was the end. Up till the end it’s just pure chaos, drama and toxicity, so I was expecting the story to continue and us finally being able to see character development. Disappointed to discover it was completed at this point.
