The best novels that I have read, better than the top novels in Series Ranking. The stories are great and I always immediately read them when they get updated.... more>>

This list is about MLs who under gone deep traumas that makes them feel undeserving of FLs. And this is about FLs who will do... more>> everything to help MLs overcome their traumas and have an happy ending. <<less

A list of worthwhile titles with at least one brilliant aspect, making them far more memorable than almost everything else around here, but at the same time one glaring fault, which stops them from entering my "Above And Beyond All" list.... more>>

There's no real ranking here, but to me there's a difference between the top 4 and bottom 4.

Please comment below with suggestions of good titles. I'd appreciate that a lot. <<less

I’ll keep adding to the list as I finished reading more novels ̴♡̴♡̴ (mostly power couples/ enemies to lovers/ morally questionable characters)

I start reading many stories but these are the ones I finished

Interesting stuff I'm keeping an eye on for updates (Not in order)

These novels have all been read by me and are considered "good books" in my standards. 

Overlooked and underrated novels that are really unique in terms of either characters, world, story or even several at once and don't have glaring faults.... more>>

Lots of novels are interesting at first but are destroyed by either insufferable characters or a terrible story. Not these. And if you know others like them, PLEASE let me know!

Bad stories and characters are everywhere, good stories and characters are rare, but truly UNIQUE stories or characters are unforgettable and THAT is what I'm looking for after reading hundreds of titles.

People often complain that many novels' characters are flat and fixed. Well, here they are not just really well written, but grow and change over time.

No reincarnations into tr*shy young masters, no sect branches that have bigger branches behind them with sects behind them with bigger sects behind them, no fighting 10 ranks higher enemies because MC is so special, no repeating the same nonsense again and again for thousands of chapters, no all-knowing MC on a rail to the next key-item, no arranged marriages and no idiots to be killed by MC for a back and forth of revenge with family->sect->kingdom->world againd and again.

I've read many hundreds of the most popular titles and they won't make the list because of mentioned issues, or are new and I don't know of them yet.

I made a second list with titles that didn't make it because of flaws but are still a good read.

Ranked in terms of being well-rounded and polished. <<less

1- generally lighter, some darker undertones and the ML’s are a bit unhinged... more>>

2- characters are 100% gone, full yandere, but still pretty tame - all r-19 content is safe sane and consensual.

3- full on psycho shit, proceed with caution ⚠️ , read the tags on the stories pls and thanks.  <<less

Some are cliché. Some are original. Some are in-between. Anything goes as long as it is in my taste.

(Based on the 피폐물 tag in KR webnovel world) According to Namu Wiki's definition of 피폐물: "A novel genre in which the main character goes crazy because of the desperate circumstances around them. Whether it's about love, ill-fated family relationships, or misunderstandings, the MC is constantly abused, tormented, and forced into a mentally and physically hopeless situation."... more>>

Despite being highly regarded in KR thanks to their raw, genuine depictions of pain, sorrow and conflicting feelings with excellent narratives, this genre isn't well-received in international fandoms. NU readers tend to prefer novels without triggering elements, and translators also rarely pick up this genre because of how difficult it is to translate. So this list is made to honor the brave translators who bring out something new and challenging, and also to compile some works for readers' reference.

You can refer to this list either to try out some dark and angsty reading, or to mark it as a 'red flag' list never to be opened. Readers' discretion is advised; remember that the works don't reflect the authors' real-life mindsets and that translators aren't responsible for your mental health. <<less
