Four Years Apart
Due to a halfhearted and immature decision made by her mother, Irie was set up to marry the son of her mother’s friend. This all began starting when she was 5 years old. She and the boy grew up together until Kangee moved overseas due to his father’s job. After 10 years, Irie and Kangee are reunited when they are 22 and 18, respectively. Can they be a good match for each other despite the four year age gap and their strikingly different personalities, tastes, and ways of thinking? ---------- Waste of time.
Private Lessons
I dropped it, maybe I'll give this one another try sometime (which is why it's in 'want to read'). But for now, meh. Stories where MCs have multiple partners are just not my thing. I also despise Pr. Seo's character.
My Lover, My Teacher
To the outside world, Kyujin and Doyeol are cousins who live together. But behind closed doors, the younger Doyeol is a reckless lover that Kyujin somehow can’t disobey. Unwittingly, Kyujin triggers Doyeol’s possessive side as he finds himself entangled with Jimin, a rebellious high schooler he’s tutoring. Cousin, teacher, and student—all roles and rules are bound to be broken. ---------- I-...... I don't know what the f*ck I just read. I liked this story's build-up but, what? The tension between Doyeol & Kyujin is quite nice. I liked the build up to it. But I feel quite bad for Doyeol. I didn't have any particular feelings about Jimin's character, and Kyujin's lack of spine really made me want to throw fists. He's such a coward and it made me mad the entire time. If only for that the ending's perfectly suited. It stamps his character as just that. He's really pathetic. Was his character handled a bit differently I might has sympathized with him, but as he is written now, he's just a pathetic man who's indecisiveness and selfishness hurts the ones he's involved with. Also, Doyeol needs to see a therapist. In any case, I feel like this vould have been an okay read if it'd have been better structured and thought-through. A lot of the plot seemed shallow and rushed. As well as the characters not being written in enough details. Leaving only few traits to make up their personalities. It's not the worst BL I've ever read, but it wasn't good either.
