I avoid 95% of tragedy drama stories, I love weird, cute, funny, fantasy stories with over 50% having some form of romance, though there's one... more>> or two anti hero stories like "the death mage doesn't want a fourth time" <<less

Korean novels I've read so far that I find interesting and to recommend to others if interested. 

i dont like pie from the sky and lucky mc(i get jelaus), i dont like dense mc(i myself can do dense staf), dont like sliceOfLife, dont like selfsacrificing hero, dont like destiny chosen. dont like revenge as final goal.... more>>

btw, why no mc throw pepper in face of thugs? pepper nowaday is really cheap. carrying pepper better than carrying knife or bat. <<less

These are game element stories (mostly with level systems) that are either action-packed or great on the power fantasy side of things -- the MCs either begin OP or gradually become OP. You won't find any pushover MCs here, either, or MCs that waste chapter after chapter chasing skirts. Don't judge these by their covers -- some are a lot better than the cover art would lead you to think, like Night Ranger, which I put off reading for a long time. It turned out to have one of the most interesting D&D-like universes I've ever seen.... more>>

There are many other series I enjoy, but as much as I'd like to include them, I'll only put something here if it's REALLY addictive. Too many series start good and then waste their ideas. <<less

<[mostly ordered]> -- too hard to sort they are all good <<less

All stuff I've read till the end and ranked by personal preference. The ones at the front are more accurate, the ones at the end are unsorted. ... more>>

My preference: Meandering slow-burn novels like Mao Ni's stuff get extra points. Harem/romance/face-slapping power fantasies get minus points. Completed novels get bonus points, and terrible endings get points knocked off. Also plus points for character building friends/family/enemies and down points for solo yolo.

English ones not included in rankings: Worm, Pact, Mother of Learning, The Perfect Run, Twig, Lightning is the Only Way, Master this Poor Disciple Died Again Today, Unable to Cultivate I can only Raise Soul Pets

MTL-only: Rebirth of the Noble Mage Behind the Scenes <<less
