Welcome to the dark side~ (Korean version)

Novels w/
• jealousy

I've ranked these based on the ones I've enjoyed the most considering the plot and possessiveness of the male lead by a 2:1 ratio ~

Only straight romances 

(I have another list only for BL)

what I've written are my honest opinions and pls feel free to reccomend more or to ask any questions ~♡ <<less

you will find here mainly transmigration, villains and badass MC with some spicy scenes. I'm still arranging it all and adding reviews so I wouldn't look at the ranking for now, except for the novels in which I have already written some reviews. I hope you will find something for yourself here XO... more>>

Also there is r*pe/forced s*x in the list, so read at your own risk

Also, I would love it if you could recommend me some yandere ML book recs  <<less

Just some novels of terribly possessive guys who will do anything anything for their girlsヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ

As the title says, this collection consists fully of yandere male leads. Some more yandere than others.... more>>

Most stories are very dark. Like this is probably as dark as it gets. If you are looking for fluff, look elsewhere.

Most of the stories are historical fantasy but some are real life.

Fair warning : The characters can be pretty toxic and even emotionally abusive at times. 

All recommendations are welcome. But it will only be included in the list if I really like it. <<less

Obsessive male leads are so irrestible and I love every single one of em. They be a lil scary tho when they blacken. Huhu. Anyway, i'm blessing yall with sum yandere babi.=>... more>>

No yuri (gomen)

No yaoi (gomen ;~;)

There are a lot of novels I know which have obsessive male leads, but unfortunately there's no info about them here on NU, so i'll probably just list it here or on the comments:

Mommy villainess (PERSONAL FAVORITE)

The demon's bride

The crown's obsession

Young master Damien's pet

The reason why I don't want to marry the Prince <<less

Stories with a villainess or aristocracy focus. European setting.... more>>

Part 1 has more than 100 chapters or finished

Part 2 has 60-99

Part 3 has 30-59

Part 4 has 11-29

Part 5 has 10 or less chapters <<less

Yandere ML, Love Interest Falls In Love First, Strong Female MC. Honestly, if you want a yandere and possessive ML and can’t get triggered at... more>> the toxicity, then this list is for you. Some are also not toxic, I also left reviews so that you could pick. <<less

Somehow I love to read the obsessed characters in korean novels, its really interesting for me.
I don't mind with the ratings, I made this... more>> list based on my likings for the story and characters. But i haven't sort all of these hehe <<less

Mostly "toxic" relationships and primarly that of a romantic nature.... more>>

Although the ML's are usually the one described of such acting, the FL's can be too.

Ussually the FL has the upper hand and the ML is a puppy, this also being the preference, but there can be exceptions in the list.

Also novels where the ML's burning affection is not reciprocated by the FL. This can be changed as the plot evolves, or until the end the love won't be reciprocated.

Fantastic realm/ Royalty/Modern world/Ancient times - doesn't matter as long as the FL is not treated miserably, even if there is angst, mixed emotions, bursts of anger, sad and tense moments. The ML lead definitely can not be a total scum and the FL a weak, emotional damsel. This being said, I gladly accept new suggestions that match this genre. <<less

Novels with either plain obsessive love or twisted relationships. Keep in mind that these are all my personal ratings so it may not be the same for you but still, take it as a reference if you're unsure of what to read next. ... more>>

Yandere Levels ; 10 - borderline obsessive w/ actual reasons   ▎8 to 9 - definitely obsessive but not too much  ▎5 to 7 - obsessiveness that came out of no where (aka just bcuz fl's nice to ml etc.)

Plot ; 10 - interesting and unique  ▎8 to 9 - decent / common but tolerable  ▎5 to 7 - plain and usual / not so surprising  <<less

KR RoFan novels for all your transmigration/isekai needs. Cliche? Yes. A fun read? Also yes.

A list of the best novels I've read so far. The rating is based on Story > Characters.... more>>

Are you a sucker for yanderes? Then here it is, a vitamin for yanderes! Drink a dozen once a day and you'll get addicted just like me! ╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯... more>>

I got addicted to them last year. The reason's I always feel mesmerized by their myriad of emotions that they feel towards FL, especially their despair and misery. 

And I don't read Harem, I only simp loyal men here.

* Not in order 

* Also, pls keep in mind that some have smut and forced s*x/r*pe <<less

stuff ill probably read once they update more-- although I've only read some of them, they are all romance (mostly shoujo, not smut lol) but the covers look sweeter than candy~... more>>

 [i couldn't fit all of them in because of the 100 limit but if i find really good ones ill swap them out for worse ones maybe] <<less

♤ All Romance Novels (Historical/Modern/Fantasy). Because I'm a sucker for romance and if you are one too, you should check this list out.... more>>

♡ No NTR (Netorare - term for cheating/being unfaithful) for the MCs.

◇ No Harem or Reverse Harem. Only monogamy allowed here.

♧ Happy Ending. <<less

they just can't help themselves ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

women who are the more dominant ones in the relationship physically or emotionally and the men who adore them... more>>

where the ml would literally follow the fl into hell if they asked  <<less

Because we simp over ML's tragic backstories ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[BIOLOGICAL/ADOPTED]

This list will NOT include novels with explicit r*pe between MC and ML. Due to their nature, these will not depict healthy relationships. This list also does not include QT.... more>>

These are not "true" yandere ML's as the MC is willing and reciprocates. My personal favorite novels are those where the MC/ML dynamic is mutually obsessive/possessive or where the MC accepts and returns the ML's obsessive love. The top ranked novels on this list will have darker tone because of this .

This list focuses on romance and the couples. List is ranked roughly by my enjoyment of the couple. If a novel is shorter, or still early in translation it will naturally fall later.  <<less

It's just as the name says. Always open for recommendations! The Rating is based on the Female Lead. Check out my other lists here!... more>>
