*please recommended more like this to me*

Korean Novels about men who have either reincarnated, got a second chance, or transmigrated, woke up in another body, into noble sons, side-characters, villains, or extras. They sometimes have animal companions, and definitely have loyal followers.  <<less

Sequence is CN- JP- KR- Fluffy- (Comedy)- Exceptions- To-reads. Not ranked by number. 
My descriptions varies greatly from a gist, polished review, impressions, or explains key points.        ... more>>

[Flexible Preferences] 
A. Protags are somehow mostly male but I read both!- interesting, has compelling qualities, flawed with development
B. Entertaining, Distinct, & Creative
C. Steady premise, no TERRIBLE plot hole 
D. Romance: good execution, pacing, build-up, & evokes emotion; no bullsh!t drama & brain-dead denseness
E. Vital, relevant, fleshed-out characters
F. Comedic & Fun
G. Danger, Wars, Battles, Strategy, Tactics, Trials, Fights, Thriller, Suspense
H. Lore, Culture, Kingdom, Worldbuilding 
I. Political Intrigue, Schemes, Mind Games, Manipulation, Mystery
J.  Pure tragedies rarely - it hurts!
K. No BL/GL(yet?)
L. Can be R-18 
M. Polygamous-like IF great story | even if you're averse consider my recs. ;)

[Criteria]
1. These are (mostly) 4/5 stars in story, translation and enjoyment according to my flawed evaluation that is mainly 3/10 objective, 7/10 subjective.
2. I have perused the novels or adaptation before sharing my thoughts.
3. Writing must be consistent, coherent and engaging and the ending must at least not be sh!t. Clichés to a point are fine however it needs to be purposeful & executed well. 
4. I will keep adding books that are promising, satisfying, translated.  <<less

Novels where the MC is reincarnated/ transmigrated/possessed/transported into a Dating Sim/Novel/Game world as a character or something similar to that.... more>>

I said that, but some of the MCs can actually be the original inhabitant of that world (not reincarnated/transmigrated/possessed).

Tell me if i put the wrong novels in this list, since i don't remember all of the details of these novels/ i haven't read some of them. You can also suggest other novels that might fit this list too.

Sorry for the bad English.
