Started off with a really bad one by reading jinx since it was the first manhwa on the front page , and dropped it but ended up reading bj alex since it was by the same author and I did like it so I started reading more and more and eventually got here reply
For me, it was Cherry Blossom After Winter...it was actually my first YAOI manhwa...which I didn't expect at all since it says shounen ai, and around chap 60+, I was hella shock, bcs I wasn't prepared at all :'D 2 reply
