Love Jinx

Ongoing | Geonhan,건한 | 2020 released

As of 19 chapters, I'm really torn... I'm not sure I like that this guy is obviously end game. He's getting more backstory now, but he was manipulative and horrible from the start--blackmailing, almost outing the protagonist to his family more than once, all this shit. He's clearly crazy and obsessive, but I guess we're supposed to see it as devotion. Eh. The art is touch and go. Sometimes it's beautiful, sometimes people have weird little pointy chins, tiny heads, and huge, thick necks. I would give it three stars for now, but I actually like the secondary couple/throuple more than the main, so I'm in it for that. Hopefully it starts to flow a little better for me. I do really like break up and second love themes, I have to admit. Here's hoping it's satisfying in the end.

Abyss

Complete | Kim eunji,Eeej | 2019 released

Beautiful art, but it was just a rape fetish story. It had the humiliation and the mind break and everything. Just not for me. It was weird when it cut to the next shot and the kid is just dead. We didn't even get to see the fallout of that, but suddenly the captain is just horny for cock. I don't get the mind break kink.

The Servant / Employer

Ongoing | Honey bread,dumplings | 2019 released

Everyone in this story sucks. The end. I initially thought Yeonho was just really stupid, but it turns out he's nosy, hypocritical, and really stupid. Like, mind your own business, bitch. I don't know why I'm still reading this. Maybe because the twisted nature of a father and son fighting over the same powerless pretty boy is appealing to me in a masochistic sort of way. I wish I could get something like this more often only, you know, written well.
