Backlight
Woah okay so the main character (black hair) was a judo person but quit but in hs he had to mentor the top (blonde) but something happened so he left and now hes a manager (i think that the dead "brother" got in the way of their relationship) the top is a model and hangs out with the mc's idol which causes controversy and the top is into freaking bdsm oor something, something harsh they meet up and now he wants him as his manager --- I keep thinking about when they first met Seo said,” I’ve been a fan of yours”. After finishing season 1, I’m curious if there’s more to explore on this or was it just used for character build up. I say this because he handed YW the medal he threw after his match. Was he there as a spectator for friends, or was his step brother into judo? And that’s how he met him from the sidelines? BECAUSE…. Seo is an opportunist. We do see his capacity to be manipulative, but I think the “accidental” run in with the actor in Chp 1. gave him the opportunity to move things in his favor ( which, I think the actor is pretty manipulative because we know he set YW up to see him due to unrequited feelings). That being said, I’m curious if there was an opportunity to connect with YW through that mentor / buddy program. If he met YW because he went to support a friend or his step bro at a match, then I think the dialogue during the jump flash back supports this when the kids were dogging him about his background in judo. He also was seen with a sling in the final chapter flash back so if that was a broken arm or dislocated something that was pretty personal (duh) because he needs his arm for holds. Like that wasn’t just a warning, that was definitely the step brother being like, “ get the fuck away from my man.” I think the brother kiss flash back also showed that most likely the step brother initiated the kiss because he was gripping on Seo. Like, I think it’s been in the comments that it looked hella staged so YW WOULD see them. This then leads to Seo’s spiral once YW runs away. I think the scandal mentioned in the last chapter has a young Seo, I am willing to bet that pervy uncle had something to do with Seo being there. Like, him trying to comfort Seo by leading him straight into the lions den. This is one of the only BLs I’ve read where I’ve been more interested in the what got us here than the present story. I was underwhelmed with the finale because the present timeline seemed predictable, like of course they’d get to this point of boning and at least one of them owning their feelings like it was some big discovery that the guy in high school he messed around with he had true feelings for.
Family Mate
The top is the boss their parents are getting married the top doesnt want to let the bottom go sex partners the bottom doesnt want to disobey his mom ---okay so its still the same thing but they confessed ahahah happy ending well they end up together, bottom moves to different company parents still married and at the end after 2 years the mom reaches out

the bottom has a curse that if he falls in love or gets heart broken, he literally burns up the top is chinese and is like a tamer and hes really into the bottom but i wonder why ---happy ending but i guess nothing was really explained the tops dad hates him the bottom burned up but learned to love the top and stopped burning up as much
Backyard Guest
the top is actually rich from investing? but he ran away from his parents/family cause they kept asking for money he goes to the country and meets the bottom but doesnt let him go in his house smut
Dead man Switch
okay so the translations are so so shitty but zombie apocalypse and the top seems to know the bottom but he doesnt know him back the bottom is s rule follower the top would die for the bottom ----- A dead man's switch is a switch that is designed to be activated if the human operator becomes incapacitated, such as through death/loss of consciousness- The ML has scars that the MC said looked as if no human could survive it- especially the one around his neck, looked like he was nearly decapitated. From the very first scene of them together, the ML seem to already know the MC, despite the MC can’t remembering a thing- it could just be a typical yaoi plot point, like the mc helping him out when he was younger/ he fell in love one-sided, been stalking him enough to know things, but the later scenes seem to imply the ML knew him intimately. It also seems like it wasn’t the ML’s first rodeo- he’s competent as fuck with the axe, seem to be confident that some of the people they meet was going to die- we could chalk it up as him not caring about anyone else, but it’s also likely that he’s seen it happen. He also said stuff like “usually it’s over before you get hurt” and “you’ve never gotten sick before” is this a mistranslation, or did ML just revealed that it all HAS happened before. There’s also moments when he sees the MC dead, saying that he looks so pretty even when dying. Maybe he’s fucked in the head, or it happened enough times. He also kept mentioning how it doesn’t matter if everyone else dies, but mc shouldn’t. He’s smitten, in love, obsessed/ whatever you wanna call it with the MC, but it does feel like there’s more- he said that the mc “kept sacrificing himself for people” - early on, like why would he say that when the mc hasn’t done anything sacrificial yet? Maybe he did it previously, multiple times, and he kept coming back to life, with no memory of any of it. Hence dead man switch. Maybe its like a time loop, a paradox of the MC & ML coming back to their zombie infested university with psycho killer students, like a fucked up video game-ish purgatory. I could be wrong, and this is really just a zombie themed manhwa with an unhinged & sexy ML and clueless but kind hearted MC. Haha EDIT: Also MC dreamed of the zombie thing happening, which became silly, picturing his zombie professor making him do a presentation lol- I forgot about this, but MC doesn’t seem like a video game type of person, so it’s likely he’s dreaming of stuff he HAD LIVED THROUGHHH What I think happend… In the first loop or the first loops MC helped ML and now ML feels grateful for him and probably fell for him after a while … And the Trigger for restarting the loop is ML… His scars would make sense then, literally a scar on the neck looks like a wound you could die from … He cares that MC survives cause if he dies it just restarts, but if MC dies then ML will loose him forever … That’s my theory
Final Stop
the bomb dot fucking com ABO they know each other since they were younger ---okay so this is the one where the top had parents that were killed and then set on fire by the bottoms dad who was abusive. The manager lost an eye. The bottom was pregnant but the tops uncle stabbed him and so he misscarried. CHAPTER 41 GOT ME IN THE FUCKING FEELS CAUSE HE MEETS HIS GRANDPA AND SON AS A DOG AND ITS SO SAD as of right now hes depressed ended kinda fast and hes like damn if this dude is gonna stalk me, might as well live with it hopefully side stories are better --They finally are happy
Again
