FL and ML both broke up with their respective lovers, but they actually regret it. Both want their exes to cling onto them, so they make a plan: fake dating to provoke their exes. In the process, they fell in love.
MCs both have their own businesses and their story feels different from your typical school/college/working romance story. It shows how they interact with each other without the forced proximity. And the LOVE I have for the ML <3

After a car accident, FL goes 10 years back in time. It’s not a revenge story. She was very happy before and had a good and peaceful life. But now she has to rebuild her life, marry her husband again (who doesn’t know her) and rescue her pets.
This is the cutest read. Very funny too, especially when ML calls her crazy. FL is very confident and mature (thanks to her knowledge of the future). She is very nonchalant and she’s like the IT girl!!

During high school, the FL meets ML in a secluded house, where she goes to study and he goes to sleep. They never expressed their feelings for each other, because ML had to leave without explanation. FL manages to escape her unfortunate circumstances and they meet again years later.
This may not sound promising but it’s very good. I promise, it’s one of the best. FL is smart, ML is cool and even the 2ML is interesting.
A chaebol’s daughter decides to live in poverty because of the guilt she feels after losing her parents.
FL got 3 man wrapped around her fingers! The dynamic is so cute because the secondML actually liked the ML at first and then fell for FL after becoming her friend. ThirdML is a guy from the FL’s past who knew her when she was spoiled. He went looking for her after she disappeared and changed school.
Two childhood friends starts getting into a physical relationship, but without labels. FL starts having feelings for ML but gets rejected because he’s too afraid of losing (even though he likes her too).
It has spicy moments but it feels like a genuine connection between the MCs. The backstory isn’t some tragic trauma either.
After the FL realizes that the ML never took her feelings seriously, she detaches herself and uses ML as an inspiration for her writings. She only approaches him to gather ideas until the end of a writing contest. ML ends up actually falling for her and now she’s the one walking away.
It was so satisfying seeing his own words backfire at him. I always like seeing a shy character standing up for herself. And the desperation in his face was priceless!!
After being reincarnated into a novel, FL gets killed by the obsessive ML. She wakes up back in the modern world, where she meets a guy who looks like exactly like him. He pretends not to know anything about her, but he’s actually the obsessive ML and followed her into the modern world.
The ML is the classic yandere type, who is kind only in front of her but a menace (to other people) when she’s not around.
FL finds out that she has 0 point love, meaning she should be unable to be loved. This proves to be wrong when her points get raised by the ML(???)(and the other ML) and they get in a relationship. Unfortunately he leaves her without explanation and we get a 8 years timeskip.
The trope sounded so promising and interesting but it all got lost in the way. The story gets drugged and moves for the sake of the love triangle. Don’t know who’s the ML, honestly. Hoping Dohwa though :)
FL and ML met in high school and never expressed their feelings for each other. Five years later, ML gets amnesia and loses memory of his college years. He confesses to the FL, forgetting that he’s currently dating someone else.
I like how the FL didn’t deceive him just because of her lingering feelings. But if I read this with the prospective of his current gf, I’d feel so bad for her. This is a must read btw, the pace is good and the art is so pretty!
FL finds out her husband is cheating on her with a younger woman. But she finds comfort in the ML, a younger man who recently approached her. His intentions are confusing at first, but it's looking like he has been plotting everything to get close to her.
ML here has people spying on her and he gets hurt to get her attention. Is this a good romance? I don’t know but definitely deserves a read.
