Korean Action Novels Part 3https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/25368/?ft=yes <<less

Romance is not really my cup of tea, but I love me some good ol bromance. That's it.... more>>

All of these are just *chef's kiss* but I'm too lazy to write a review, so just try it for yourself.

It's mostly action-fantasy genre with no romance (i think).

Enjoy~ <<less

Novels with high-quality translations and plots that give a satisfactory face slap (the list is not in any particular order)... more>>

- Predominantly BL (with Happy Endings)

- Any non-BL that I find interesting 

- Binge-worthy  <<less

A list of korean webnovels with a particular trope of the protagonist that involved in a death game and may or may not transported to said game world or have said game system transplated into our world.  There's also dungeons and monsters.... more>>

Not including novels that set in an actual game, e.g. Overgeared. <<less

I'm gonna sort this list from gaeey-est to straight-est/ "brotherhood" level lol (except of course those novels which I haven't read yet, just recommended by many . I will just put them on the bottom, in accordance with their NU ratings) - you may also recommend some below if I ever missed one or anything. This is all for our quest on finding these types of novels anyway lmao.... more>>

.

EDIT: On second thought, I won't put the ships anymore cuz some readers may put off reading it because they're spoiled as to who to focus on or that they're already suggested as to which relationships between 'bros' to invest on so yeaahh~~ Just gonna put some of my thoughts and its synopsis instead.  <<less

A list to keep track of the novels that hurt my heart... and/or hurt the MC/ML hehehehehe the more suffering, the better. Self sacrifice (SS) is always welcome. Recs appreciated! Some novels have not been read yet and are added due to the recommendations of others.... more>>

Includes novels with empty protagonists, broken protagonists, and sick protagonists

Stories differentiated by my own terms:

[Apathetic], [Sick], [Tragedy], [SS] [Depressed], [Transmigration], [Revenge]

Also: [Unread], [Reread-> read multiple times]

Organized so my favorites (tragic quick transmigrations where MC breaks ML's heart repeatedly) are at the top, then all the death craving characters, then the mistreated and sick villainesses, then the apathetic and SS children appear <<less

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

I really like ✓unique (world building/game rule/setting), ✓logical development, ✓solid plot, ✓all character in the novel have a life of their own that not serve for the purpose of the plot and finally a ✓logical MC. If there are at least two of these qualities, LINNIL APPROVE!!... more>>

I like to read various genre I don't care if it's ✮shoujou, ✮shounen, ✮yaoi or ✮harem, if only there is my require qualities~

 (not arranged in order) <<less

For people who love yandere

Vomiting blood? Overworking yourself? Self injury? Always choosing the self sacrificial route as plan A? Misunderstanding? Of course.... more>>

Anyways, here's a compilation.

PS: Self sacrifice that I mean in this list doesn't necessary mean it's for other people. Can be MC just constantly putting themselves at risk. <<less

Harem stories can go away. I'm tired of that sh*t.

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!!! 

This is to help my s*upid brain never regress further due to being addicted in reading novels with lack of common sense and questionable plot holes. And to also prevent myself from always having to lower my standard to the point of being brain dead.... more>>

Most often no romance but with male protagonist. As much as I always read everyday, only some stories really piqued my interest. So here's my list of unforgettable novels I've read here.

Just to mention, I won't add some KR dungeon tropes and CN wuxias, xuanhuans, xianxias since I find it more generic and full of plot holes (and armors).

I've been an avid NU reader since 2018? Yet this is my first time setting an account because I really want to create this list for my fellow comrades.

Ah, please do not hesitate for some recommendations I forgot to add! <<less

Novels that if you're a "tr*sh of the count's family" fan, you might like. (Mostly no romance)

Game-elements, dungeons, towers, etc

For my friend ... more>>

I really like obsession stories, I don't really care about romance, but sometimes it is nice. I just want obsession.  So I made a list of the most memorable obsession stories I've read for my friend to read . Feel free to recommend me something :3 <<less

Novels that have a decent MC involved in either Apocalypse-Setting, Fighting against Monster and or within Dungeon. No Harem allow in this list. BL are Okay :D ... more>>

Tags Includes: Gate to Another World, Parallel Worlds, Fantasy World, World Hopping/Quick Transmigration, Monsters, Dungeons, Apocalypse, OP-Protagonist, Martial Arts, Mystery, Sci-Fi, Supernatural, Seinen, Action, Adventurer, Comedy, Slice-of-Life,  <<less

You know this genre. People awaken superpowers and are called Hunters or Players, and also there are gates to other dimensions and/or a tower where each floor is a dungeon. May also include beings from other dimensions who started this nonsense for their own self-interests.... more>>

Each series I have read or am planning to read. May include series that aren't *quite* this genre but are close enough. Includes both romance and non-romance. At the end I've included series without translations or ones with only a couple of chapters translated that haven't updated in a long time. Maybe some day I can read them... <<less

No description.

This list is for people, like me, who are tired of romance and just want to read a good story.

Essentially, either a weak or strong protagonist has subordinates or people who are all very loyal and protective/possessive of him. Most of them are stronger than the MC. There are mainly male protagonists, but female protagonists are included.... more>>

NO HAREM OR ROMANCE-FOCUSED NOVELS! Contains mainly friendship or comradeship-focused Novels.

Other Novels/Mangas that can't be found on novelupdates: Eleceed (Manhwa), How to Survive as a Terminally-Ill Dragon (Manhwa) <<less
