Dress Him Up
Doh Yeonwoo is a visual arts(?) major. He doesn't have a very good fashion sense and is the ugly duckling of the campus. Luckily, fashion major, Seo Jaehee might save his romantic life by getting Yeonwoo a huge makeover. To his success, Yeonwoo is actually a pretty handsome guy! Will Jaehee be able to continue being Yeonwoo's stylist without falling for his charms? It's a pretty cute manhwa, but most of the story isn't romantic as I'd like it to be. Sure, it's cute, and the author/artist perfectly portrays the lives of university students, but most of the novel is them working for their school life. I'll give it 3.2 stars. But then again, this is my opinion, and you might find this more suitable for you. It might've been a bit boring, but not a waste of time. And it's complete with 24/25 chapters, so you won't need to wait to find out what happens next.
My Darling Signed In
Jaehyun is the cool upperclassman everyone enjoys being with, but he secretly plays as a female in the online game, Illusion World. There, he meets Eunsung, a handsome rich first-year, who turns out to be Jaehyun's online boyfriend! (They are dating, but Jaehyun is pretending to be a female, but Eunsung though Jae was a girl until it was revealed to both of them who they were) What will happen to these two online lovers? This story is really cute, and I adore how Eunsung doesn't care about Jae's status, problems, or fake identity (of Ill world). Recommended story

SUMMARY: Yokai (supernatural entities and spirits in japanese folklore) exorcist, Izumo saves a child, Ryuta from a snake yokai. Izumo gets poisoned by the snake while trying to save Ryuta, and Ryuta ends up taking care of Izumo for a few days. Before leaving, Izumo promises to return and adventure with Ryuta. Although Izumo never comes back, Ryuta still remembers about the promise from years ago. To Ryuta's luck, Izumo comes back to the village. According to Izumo, he doesn't remember making the promise, but that still won't stop Ryuta from adventuring with Izumo. **** REVIEW (may contain spoilers): LENGTH: Kinda short, its five chapters, and they are kind of fast paced. I honestly wished that it was a bit longer, it would length out the characters more, and I honestly would love to see them grow closer, as they grow close way too fast, and it really doesn't make sense because of Izumo's personality. Also, the story mentions that they go in more adventures, and I would like to see that. At the end Izumo becomes a teacher (?) after losing his powers. I would like to see them interact more after the event, and I would like to also see Izumo kinda struggle with this new life without his exorcist powers. Honestly I would like this to be a little bit longer to flesh things out more, but its still good as a short read. ART: The art is VERY pretty. I liked it a lot. It's also in black and white, which I personally don't mind, but if you don't like that, then here's your warning (lol). CHARACTERS: I liked the characters a lot! Everyone was memorable, and a few interactions made me laugh (mainly between the fox yokai and everyone else lmao). Although I do wish we got a bit more of their personalities and stuff fleshed out. FINAL SCORE: 4. I gave this a four because it was very decent, however it wasn't really anything too great, and again with the fleshing out plot, world, and characters, I would have loved to see this world and characters more fleshed out. As a short read it doesn't hold too much value and is kind of forgettable (sad), but if it was even slightly longer (10 chapters at least), I would have probably given it a higher rating. 4 stars is still good, especially with how strict I am in ratings lol **** CONCLUSION: This is a good read! If you are looking for a cute short-story to read, I'd recommend this.
