Re-season
Don’t know what to tell ya, there’s really nothing to complain about. It wasn’t bad or perfection, but it was entertaining and short. So ya
Walk on Water
This was a hard review to put into words, considering how complex this story ended up being. My feelings towards this story can be boiled down into three. Happy, depressed, and confused. For what it’s worth, this story was extremely well written and drawn, and deserves the five stars I’m giving it. It gets complex when we get into the themes of pornography, rape, debt, and the feeling of being used. I have many things to say about this, but I think it’s best I say one thing, to truly show just how amazing it is. I cried. And not because of the ending, or the relationship, I cried because of Ed’s friend Derek. If there’s one thing that shocked me the most about this story, was how the main character loses everything. When the mc was finally getting back on their feet, one of the first people to help them was Derek. To have it dropped on you that your best friend is a gay pornstar, obviously, you’re going to be shocked and even disgusted. But Derek came back in the end. He was a true friend, he accepted Ed, supported Ed, and was even worried for Ed. No one in the story ever cared for Ed like that, other than his lover. I love this story, so please, take the time to think and read this masterpiece.
Oh! My Assistant Webtoon
Here me out: this is an interesting story. So, I how I found this comic, is probably weird. I was on someone’s profile, and saw they had recently read Yalgae’s other work “Wet Dream”. I saw it and was like “oh ya. Gotta read that”. Thanks to that, I saw that the same artist worked with a author on a longer series, and boom. I fell in love. Personally, I got the author and artist confused, so I thought Mila was the artist XDDD I was really confused when I saw that only Yalgae worked on “Wet Dream”, and then I realized I’m an idiot. ANYWAYS, this was such a great series. Personally haven’t read to many tapas series, so this was VERYYYYY enjoyable. I fuckin love the art style for one, and the writing was absolutely hilarious. I will say, when they were in the process of getting together, it was so frustrating I wanted to rip my hair out. But other than that, this was great! Thank you Yalgae and Mila for teaming up! Now imma go read Mila’s other work
Incorrigible
I will tell you one thing. I really did despise Ayeon for what he did to Jaerim. Even if he was manipulated by SeYeon, he was the absolute scum of the earth. That has changed. This story really did redeem him. He changed, he grew as a person, and he apologized to Jaerim and Yuri. He got so much pain from SeYeon, he forgot if it was love, or just plain obsession. Seeing him truly happy with Jaerim again, his new lover, and his family, was an amazing sight. Ayeon, I can’t ever forgive you for what you did to Jaerim, but I can give you the respect and love you deserve. Thank you, Woori, you have changed a lost man, into a true beautiful human being.
Sweet Trap
Awww, too short. I loved the concept of having the two siblings fight over one dude tho, it was funny. I also liked that the seme planned out this whole entire thing

Edit: It’s been almost a year now. I have not read the first story. and i will never. lmao.
Warehouse
Wow. Hold on, I’m currently writing this with tears in eyes, so this is hard. Let’s talk about this. So, there’s a lot to cover, so let’s just break it up into three sections: The uke, the seme, and the relationship. The uke is the main character of the story. He is shown as a regular, hard working middle class man in his late twenties. He is kidnapped by the seme, and this is where we learn more about his character. The best words to describe this man are selfish, a sadist/masochist, and dependent. He is a person who didn’t know how to love properly, so in turn he used the feeling of superiority to hurt and force the seme to stay (in the past). When he finally remembered everything later on, he couldn't let go of the past, and tried to force his view of the seme onto him. Even after he burned down the warehouse and everything was over, he wasn’t able to let go of his kidnapper, and first true love. He is truly sad and messed up. The seme is shown as this mysterious kidnapper that is perverted and rapes the uke. When the uke finds his diary from the past and present, we start to learn more about him. The three words I would use to describe him is obsessive, depressed, and desperate. He was an innocent kid who was forced into obsession by the uke, after being tormented and belittled sexual and emotionally by him. He kidnapped and raped the uke as a way for him to experience all the pain he went through, but it ended up backing firing and making him fall in a twisted web of lies and love again. He really just wanted to be happy with the uke, but ended up messing everything up in the worse possible ways. Even after everything, he still accepted the uke back into his arms. This brings us to their relationship. What can I say? It’s toxic as fuck. They both experienced some serve Lima and Stockholm syndrome, and they can’t seem to love each other without making the other one suffer. These two did end up together in the end, and I will say why this is the best and worst possible ending. This is the worst ending because they seriously shouldn’t be in such a toxic and unhealthy relationship. This is the best ending because I whole heartedly believe that these two would never have found happiness or love in any way without the other. They are too messed up for love, friends, family, and even living. The fact that they are able to be messed up and in pain together for the rest of their lives, is probably the most painful and perfect option for them. They can depend on each other, even if it’s in an unhealthy way. Cuz even if these two messed up people weren’t together, they would still be in pain and suffering. At least now, they have someone to suffer with them. Anyways, just go read it man
WHERE IS MY HEART GOING
This was a very interesting story. I will split up my review as usual: seme, uke, and relationship. So our main character of this story is the seme. He lost his girlfriend in an accident, and is grieving her greatly. He meets her “best friend” and uses him as a replacement for her. It’s very cute to see this character grow to love the “replacement”. There is one moment when we can see he truly has forgotten about his girlfriend, and started seeing the best friend. It was such a beautiful moment, to see his eyes open and fall in love again. The uke is the best friend of the the women that died, and uses the seme as a way to feel how his best friend felt when he held her. This is a very complex character. We first see him in love, then it as an obsession, and then we find out that Soha (the women) actually manipulated him. It’s great to see him finally move on at the end, and let go of her. The relationship was very toxic in the beginning. Both were using each other as a way to cope with the grief of losing the woman they loved, and it was just not healthy that they were holding on to the past. There were both moments that they had, when they opened their eyes and saw each other for the first time. Not for Soha or the man that Soha loved, but for themselves. They truly fell in love at the end, and it was amazing. Great short story, highly recommended.
Paid(Fujoking)
This was really good! Usually, I do extensive reviews for webcomics, but I really don’t feel like this story needs it, so I’ll just talk about a few points. The accident and memory loss side plot was a really good addition. I thought that the main plot was a little too simple on its own, but adding a sense of mystery to the story by having this mysterious seme from the past that the uke could no longer remember, was very satisfying. Amnesia plots are very common, but this one was exceptionally interesting. The brother of the uke was awful. He originally took care of his brother for his brain, but to later find out he was the main reason that the uke got into the accident and lost his memories? Big plot twist. And to top it off, he just shifted the blame to the uke’s secretary, and even went as far as to cover up the accident by saying the uke went abroad, but really just put him in a mental hospital for four years. He was truly the devil. The relationships in this story were great. The main relationship was so interesting to follow, because we got to see all the secrets slowly unfold as they started to develop feelings for each other again. The second relationship is one I really wanted to see more of. I love the secretary and actor characters, so I was happy to see at the end that my ship was totally going to set sail. If only we could’ve seen it happen :(. Go read this
See You Again
