this is one of those mangas that scream early 2000s yaoi.. the artstyle and story? yeah this was boring and the seme was really annoying for being so difficult at the beginning most of the time i just skim through and i only really like the fluff scenes or when the seme was jealous despite being shit, this is strangely memorable to me so let's give it 2 stars !

Momentum

Complete | PARK Ji-yeon | 2015 released

one of my most memorable reads. i love park ji-yeon’s works so much. momentum is a collection of short stories that take place in one universe (it’s really fun to see small easter eggs) and each chapter punches you in the gut hard. very heart-wrenching. this is ANGST. i cried. holy shit. its just- everyone needs to read this.

ok tbh i dont remember much of this webtoon bc it just doesnt leave a strong impression at all, here’s what i remember from what i felt (since i’m typing this months after finishing): i dropped this for a bit before quickly picking it up. it was pretty weird at first before realizing that it was comedy and crack. this story is legitimately funny and the humor is the only thing it has going for it. 10/10 comedy gold. everything else? boring. the character’s are boring and not likable but also not dislikable. theyre just... vibing i guess. the couple itself is boring! just boring! but bc its funny who gives a fuck!!! the art is also ugly. does not grow on me. kept thinking of it repeatedly.

BJ alex

Complete | Mingwa | 2000 released

few notes: — i adored this webtoon when i first read it. it’s one of those series where once you read it, it’ll never blow you away as much after. — the uke, dg, is pretty pathetic. he’s a pushover and he doesn’t have much personality other than admiring alex. the second hand embarrassment is real but that’s not what i mind: it’s that he’s a genuinely boring character alone. several times during my reread, i got irked but how pushy he was about things and the way he acted. so irritating. but, in my first read i didn’t mind as much (or rather i was too caught up in the angst to really pay a closer attention) — the ending/last chapter was incredible, well. that’s maybe too much but it was good and tugged at my heartstrings and i even teared up. it’s so cute. i’ve never been so affected by a webtoon’s ending. it’s not that it’s sad. but it’s because [spoiler] alex ceases to exist. jiwon abandons his job to live as himself and it’s just- read it. — like i said earlier, you really would lose the amazement and adoration for the series aftwr a reread or two (more like you’ll be less impressed which albeit understandable, there are multiple webtoons and mangas out there that ive reread multiple times and still enjoyed always *cough* ameiro paradox *cough*). but still, it’s a rollercoaster and i love it so much! definitely, probably, won’t reread it unless it’s been 10 years lolol

the story kinda goes “meh!” after awhile since it stops focusing on the main couple and on to the second couple who ON GOD I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT the dialogue goes hard asf as expected of park ji-yeon and it gives MAJOR green creek series vibes fluffy and funny then BOOM angst and drama :,( theres also a side couple who are wlw the nsfw scenes arent vague or censored or whatever its pretty good but bc its rlly plot oriented u dont rlly think about it

How Sweet is a Sugar Daddy

Complete | Ji Hye-Kyung | 2017 released

broke twink college boy x old successful doctor HOLY FUCK I LOVE THIS WEBTOON SO MUCH AND I CANNOT WAIT TO REREAD IT SOON!!!! the art was really weird to me at first and i actually dropped the story for awhile bc the first couple chapters were pretty boring before eventually reading it again. the style quickly grew on me and i ended up being obsessed with the art style. the bottom annoyed me at first not gonna lie lmao. I LOVE THE SEME SO MUCH !!!!!!!! his personality is so chill, and he’s sooo handsome and sooooo my type and ahhh he’s everything LISTEN. they are the cutest ever and they have these like little gestures of romance like just cuddling moments and THEY ARENT BORING TYPE OF FLUFF its still so fun ahhh the last couple chapters i have mixed feelings of. it’s sort of like uhhhh that one webtoon i read,,, uhh,,, “work, fight and love” where they could have ended it then and there but then they added in more drama. except in this case, i just think it was a bit too short-paced. the drama and angst was definitely necessary! ahhh one of my top faves reread: review stays the same :)

as expected of harada-sensei!! i lover her psycho and fucked up works so much i tagged it as enemies to lovers but it isnt really at first, it seems normal and i even though it was super tame for harada-sensei but there’s a twist ;) i adore this story so much omg the manga ends with a cliffhanger btw its pretty trash
