1 to 24: Novels I read completely (if not ongoing), sorted in order of personal preference.... more>>

25 to ?: Novels I plan on reading in the future, not sorted.

Male centric (male protagonist) novels in both modern and ancient settings, no BL unless it's a little bromance (meaning, author may have added a dash of bromance for fan service, but no actual shounen ai or yaoi included in this list). Shounen, seinen, xuanhuan, no-CP (no romance) or novels featuring a little straight romance but mostly focused on action/adventure (ie, romantic subplot). One novel is harem with a sis con, but I enjoyed the MC and plot enough that it didn't bother me too much. Another novel is harem but only depicted in the extras, which I skipped!

Majority of these had fan translations completed at some point, so you can find them on various novel aggregator websites if the chapter links are gone from NU. <<less

Chinese BL set in ancient times, whether an alternate history on Earth or in a different world. These can be fantasy, xuanhuan, xianxia, wuxia, mpreg,... more>> or just ordinary historical. Includes shounen ai, yaoi, and BL with smut. Sorted in order of writing quality/personal preference. <<less

BL, history, farming, gers

Transmigrated, rebirth, and other instances in the Entertainment Industry

mermaid / nightinggales / guide / AO and the like; usually fixing mental riots, pheromone disorder and other mental and/or power problems. Not literal physical illness but may be connected. Mostly exclusive between the couples/partners but some can do it for  other people. there's no specific novel tag for this so I just created a list to collate titles the time I got addicted with these kinds. I've read a lot over the years but forgotten some LOL. ... more>>

This list will have sporadic update as I try to I recall old titles or read something new.

My little reviews might possible have spoilers bcos of me telling why it matched this list. Or just skip over them over.

- This list includes novels with these 2 tags, whether the MC is the one in the spotlight or whether they are in the background as long as one of these tags is present I will add them. Recommendations are welcome!
-------------------------------------------------

 KR novels: 1 - 16

CN novels: 17 - 58

-------------------------------------------------

[DESCRIPTION] –The description of the novel.

[ROMANCE] - Indicates if there is romance in the story or not. For me personally, I always base the novels that I read if it has good romance, since in some instances the romance completely ruins the story for me and sadly makes me drop the novel. In addition this helps categorizing what kind of romance genre it is, i.e yaoi, yuri, straight, shounen ai.

 [STATUS IN Country Of Origin] – Indicates the status of the novel whether it is completed or still ongoing, as well as a to compare it to the tl status.

[TL STATUS] - Indicates how far the translation team/person are. I added this in for I was sick and tired of sorting the story status to completed, finding a story that piqued my interest, then finding out it the tl chapters available aren't finished yet, really puts a frown on my face :( #stopthetranslationrickroll

To note I may be a bit late in updating the tl statuses as this list has many novels and I simply can't keep track of all of them. 

Recent update to the tl status was on: 07/9/23 <<less

In the description, "talented" means the FL has natural talent in it and can cultivate the skill quickly.

It's a list of all my favourite Korean novels with male protagonist that I'm recommending you for reading . So I hope you like it!!! 

BxB, BxG 

Just some rebirth novels I find interesting. Feel free to leave suggestions!

This list contains recommended books to read when you are into fluffy, heart-warming, lots of “UwU(s)”, and sickeningly sweet—- to the point where not only your teeth will hurt, but also your heart —- stories. Help! Too freakin’ cute!!! The characters in these novels are just too damn precious!... more>>

❗️BOTH (BxG & BxB) L-O-V-E are INCLUDED❗️

(That’s because yours truly is a sucker for “Yaoi” and plain romance in general) <<less

(There's a second list, just add a 2 to the name of this list and you'll find it) ... more>>

There are too many novels with cliché romance and harems with annoyingly useless girls. Reading them gets extremely tiring. There are too few novels with absolutely no form of romance or harem. Here are some novels I've found to not have romance/harem or have an harem/romance theme that didn't affect the plot of the novel to the point of it being annoying. 

Feel free to recommend novels that fit the criteria, arigatou^o^

P. S. I haven't read all the novels in this list so I might not be accurate in judging them. And there are some I've read but didn't finish and the novel ended up having romance or harem elements in a later chapter, please feel free to correct me anytime you see that I wasn't accurate. Arigatou minna-san <<less

Anyway, the books here have food as the main ingredient of how the story progresses; some have FL and ML while some are BL. But lusting after food and drooling over dishes is common to all.  <<less
