Major hurt/comfort simp. ... more>>

Been hurting all my life with no one to comfort me so reading a hurt/sickly MC being worried/doted/cared for/loved on really soothes my soul or something twisted like that. I'm trying to find meaning behind all the suffering. Hmnn yeah that sounds about right, I wanna read meaningful suffering.

SSSSE (Self Sacrifice= sacrificing themselves for others/a greater good) (Self Suffering= is hurting/carrying burden/enduring hardship on their own) (Exposed= other people find out leading in increased positive action/attention towards them and or it affects other people in some way so there is meaning to the suffering)

Absolutely love the vomiting blood and everybody worries trope. MC in pain? It's okay baby it's all worth it there will be people that will take care of you or make up for it. Fluff stuff. Spurting blood is fun and all but psychological hurt also rubs me right, stuff like taking blame then the other party regretting and making up for it? Angst stuff. Mmm working too hard or getting hurt in place of others is also nice.

Romance. No romance. Straight. BL. Some I read using mtl.

tl;dr I just wanna talk about the novels I've read but highlight the heart abuse scenes :)

For the stories i finish and review, please note that it is my personal opinion and you are entitled to disagree with me.... more>>

Most of these will be villainess/reincarnated stories, but I'm trying to incorporate different stories into this list. I enjoy all genres, if you have a story you'd like to recommend please tell me!

As I go along I put my (mostly) unfiltered thoughts on the novel, so hopefully you can easily find some stories you'd like to read based on my review. 

note: the reviews are based on the number of chapters I have read so far~ 

i am warning you this is literally my guilty pleasure list lmao  <<less

Some of the completed KR novels that i've come across. Some of them may not be completed on NU but don't worry ( •̀ ω •́ )✧ check the spoiler forum or search separately u'll find them! o(￣▽￣)ｄ ... more>>

Ohh and some of them may be completed mtls. <<less

Novels that are utterly and purely trαsh (subjective) but for some curious reason, I really really like them.... more>>

Let me be upfront about the trαshy tropes that I really fancy for some reason-

Male yandere: I don't know man, I really like them.

Blatant abuse: It's not even the romanticized ones. I like reading tragedies that are centered around abuse...? I don't condone abusive behavior but just like reading them despite being mentally healthy.

Running away: It is better when she eventually gets caught too ;)

Absolutely miserable female leads: I don't know man, catharsis I guess?

^These would be the most common ones. I shall add more every time I awaken something new in me.

Just because a novel is trαsh doesn't mean it is not fun. <<less

Haven't been updated in a minute.... more>>

Waiting for a good, kind translator to pick it up <<less

Korean novels that mainly include ... more>>

- female and male protagonist

- villains. queens, ladys, witches 

- smut. a lot 
2nd part. https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/53598/ <<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

these are the best k-novels that i've read during a year. great world-building, character development , fun story; i can ensure that at least every... more>> story in this list has one of those 3 elements. happy reading guys <3 <<less

here's a list of korean novels that i've been bent on reading again and again, right from the start, as i wait for updates (or... more>> just re-read everything if it's completely translated already), since i'm too broke to buy the raw version.  <<less

Mostly has long chapters. Korean novels that make me binge reading, considering the plot, characters, the plot twist, the chapters, and the last update from when... more>> I was making this list.

Part 2 : https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/64046/ <<less

No description.

Novels I have finished reading and reviewed. List is just in order the are read. I do have a tendency towards isekai and romance stories... more>> with a fair smattering of smut. I try to be specific and point out what I genuinely like or dislike.  <<less

Both BG and BL stories. May or may not contain smut. ... more>>

Quality depends on my preference. I don't finish novels I don't like so if it's cringey, I would drop it. So the fact that I finished it means it was good and/or tolerable.

The target audience for this is (straight) women. So the protagonist is either a woman in a BG novel or a man in a yaoi story. So more like a reverse harem. 

Though as a disclaimer, some of these don't have a harem end, meaning, they didn't end up with the harem or they only chose one or they chose none. I also included those that are not technically "harem" because they are basically several souls but 1 ML.   <<less

I came across these through their promo Manga/hua/hwa.Novels that have gotten serialised and have been removed from the rec list , will be listed below 

Just some novels that seem promising that I am reading/want to read!

korean novels

Novels that have a Yandare (or more) male lead.

Part 3, it’s a continuation of my previous list. Link: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/8369/ Honestly just a cluster of different stories that fall under this title that I enjoyed. I... more>> love humorous stories, so you will notice that is a theme. I also like mu*der mysteries, transmigration, some otome/villainess, and gaming themes that incorporate romance. I left comments on a few directly relating them to others. Note that some of these stories start out fairly serious and do not become fluffy or comedic till much later in the reading. Feel free to comment any recommendations you may have for me after seeing my preferences! It is greatly appreciated. During my free time, I’ll add scores between 1-5 on how worthwhile they are to read. 1) Only read if you’re bored to absolute tears; 2) it’s an okay read, some dissatisfying parts, not a priority at all; 3) Not particularly bad or good, just something to pass the time when you have a long trip (it won’t feel like an absolute waste of time or make you feel particularly dissatisfied after reading); 4) Good read that you should read; 5) Excellent/MUST read. If the score contains a .5, then it could go in either direction of the whole numbers it’s closest to. Keep in mind, none of the novels listed here are awful. Some are definitely better than others, but all of them have their own merits.  <<less

No description.

My want to read list is more than my actual completed reading list

Stories I’d keep a hard copy of//would re read several times. Genuinely good pieces for multiple reasons.
