The female lead almost always ticks off 2–3 (sometimes more) of these boxes:

She’s either the villainess, the villain’s daughter, or occasionally the sister/friend of the “real” female lead. Sometimes she’s betrayed by a sister who was secretly evil.
She’s regressed, reborn, or reincarnated. When that happens, she’s either:
a) A random Korean woman in her mid to late 20's who was a professional in a specific field (medicine, cooking, architecture,) and uses that knowledge to her advantage.
b) An actual character from the story who died in the original timeline and now knows everything that’s going to happen, and now can act accordingly.
- 8 times out of 10, she has to escape abusive relatives and reunite with her “real” family while still a child. Or, if she’s already with her real family, they’re all awful and constantly mistreat her, leading to her being adopted by the ducal family (the duke + sons).
- She always has only a father, the mother either dies during or shortly after childbirth. (This only applies when she isn’t adopted.)
- There’s usually 1–2 older brothers. If there’s only 1, he’ll have a semi distant or cold relationship with the father that changes because of the FL’s arrival. If there are 2, they’re usually close in age to the FL (like a 2–4 year gap). No matter how they start off, they all become obsessed with her within a few chapters. If there are 3, the oldest is usually a teenager between 15–19.
- Add 2–3 male childhood friends who later become love interests, plus maybe one female friend in ADULTHOOD if she’s lucky.
- She has an extremely rare, one in a million OP magical ability that the evil royal family desperately wants. Bonus points if a temple paternity test gets rigged by corrupt clergy bribed by the king/emperor.
- She always has a knight bodyguard and personal maid who act like surrogate parents.
Her main goal is either to straight up survive the main plot, get revenge on those who wronged her, or stash as much money as possible to run away and live peacefully.

The male lead (ML) is basically:
- 9 times out of 10 he starts off toxic.
- Ripped as fuck.
- Hair color is either black 75% of the time, white/silver 15%, or other 10%. Eyes are usually red, blue, or gold.
- He’s a duke 85% of the time, ALWAYS from the north, and the remaining 15% a prince but ALWAYS illegitimate, with a dead mother, an evil older brother, and a scheming stepmother who wants him dead because he’s more capable and gifted than his brother.
- No matter his title or background, he’s a highly experienced OP knight, nicknamed something like “Demon of the Battlefield,” with insane mana capabilities. There are always rumors about him being a ruthless tyrant capable of killing anyone who pisses him off.
-IF he IS a duke, he always has INSANE economic leverage. It’s not just that he has a lot of money he’ll own all the diamond mines in the kingdom or have complete control over trading routes because they happen to pass through his territory. Bonus points if he has a magic stone mine.
- Before meeting the FL, he’ll either have too little or too much experience with love and women. There’s never an in-between.

I lost it because of the whole reading lists obliteration thing but
I remember it was about University students
One of them (bottom) had like shoulder lenghth green hair that he kept in what I think was a half up half down style (I could be remembering wrong)
The other one (top) was more distinctive looking, he had like black and white hair and I'm pretty sure his ears were pierced. He was also interested in the other guy first.
I recall the story being pretty short too.

I remember very little from it but it's like sci-fi? Fantasy? One of the MLs (Top) is this weird human reptile hybrid situation and I remember him having long blonde hair (I could be wrong) and the other (who I am pretty sure was the uke) is a doctor I think and If I remember correctly he had black hair and glasses?

Can anyone give me some short korean BL recs?
I'm talking about something with like 30-65 chapters
Not the type that goes on for like 100+ and nothing that is still ongoing. I need them to be finished because I am impatient piece of shit.

for me it's:
"Koi wa ochitara" (and it's sequel)
"majo to neko"
"mother spirit" (both volumes)
"Toumei na Ai no Utsuwa"
it's always amzing when I find stories where yes they do indeed havesexy time but they still manage to make the couple's relationship feel so warm and tender. The more single the story makes me feel the better

also has anyone here attended one of these? I just got invited to one I'm struggling to come up with a silly topic (￣∇￣")

I fucking HATE tentacle shit
it gives me the same uncomfortable feeling that body horror does
I thought this opinion was popular but this website has proven me wrong (Not even surprised tbh)
apparently I'm the only one here who's put off by it
it really grosses me out
I just read this manga: https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/a_delicious_descendant/ (left it here in case anyone who IS into that is interested)
it was all your usual yaoi smut till the last chapter had this pretty intense tentacle scene and it basically ruined my day
