hii could you please recommend some completed isseiki manhwas/mangas?
Sure bb Let's Go♡
Completed isekai manhwas recommendation:
1. Virtues of Villainess.
One of the cutest couple ever *-* Art, story, MC are all cute, funny and enjoyable. I suffered from second male lead syndrome in this manhwa and I was dumbfounded about how stupid the "real" villainess was but again it was a simple and lovely story.
Tumblr media
2. As You Wish, My Prince!
I loved ittt and I'm kinda sad it isn't that popular among isekai fans. it's so realistic! Like you feel how it truely feels like when you enter the novel you wrote and all of your choices comes back to you but you have to survive somehow. Anyway story is more focused on MC and ML trying to fight against their own destiny and accidently falling in love. Some dramatic accidents were too much but stil good read.
Tumblr media
3. Light And Shadow
MC = Queen. That's all I'm gonna explain about this manhwa. Just alittle sidenote, after first chapters you're gonna think ML is a tr*sh but he is just a stupid war-maniac so don't worry.
Tumblr media
4. Why Are You Doing This Duke?!
Side stories were making me more flustered than main story lol. MC is shy, stupid and cute at the same time and ML is tsun trying to fight with some magic curse which makes him so cheesy. That's the summary :)
Tumblr media
5. Doctor Elise
Tumblr media
MC is one of the most hardworking MCs out there. She was doctor in prev life and in her second chance she does everything she can so her family can survive and live well. All men fell in love with her bc she invents the whole medical system lol but ML is the hottest. (Maybe her older bros are the hottest.)
6. Villainess In Love
Need a reason to read?! ISHID. This man is the finest ML you can find in this whole world. He is cute, hot, wild and innocent at the same time. MC is mature enough to handle him so don't worry lol. Still waiting for sidestories.
Tumblr media
7. Villain's Savior
In first chapters MC cries like 24/7 and it gets annoying like "girl stop crying for 1 sec" but later in story, the reason behind it was revealed so ig it's okay now. Anyway art is 💯 and ML is obsessed with MC and he isn't innocent at all. So prepare yourself for wild ride lol.
Tumblr media
8. Beware Of the Villainess
I love how Melissa treats MLs in the story. She slaps them hard with FACTS. She is strong, funny, reasonable and QUEEN. Anyway find someone who looks at you like how Nine looks at her.
Tumblr media
9. Miss Not-so Sidekick
If you have been following me and my posts, you def know my fav manhwa as I mention it ALOT lol. One of the funniest, most enjoyable manhwas out there is this one. Author never fails to make you laugh and artist does know how to deaw memes. MC makes everything funny and ML becomes fan of this ability ^^
Tumblr media
10. The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up
ML is obsessed and MC tries to run away all the time to test how obsessed he truely is. That's my summary.
Tumblr media
And that's it for now. I hope you enjoy reading all of them and do tell me your thoughts after you're done with them♡
Do you guys want me to explain or simply put manhwas' covers and their title for recommendation post?!

Colors of Different Hue (You) || Gun Park x Reader
cw: a bit graphic in one of the scenes, wc: ~5.2k summary: gun is a lovesick idiot but doesn't want to admit it third-person pov, fem nurse!reader, ooc gun (my delulu version actually), and reaally fast-paced a/n: heavily-inspired by 'Hotarubi no Mori e' story-telling, so there are lotsa flashbacks hehe
"Oooh, look who’s got a date today!" Goo giggled as he peeked back from the wooden porch facing his partner's backyard.
Gun almost had uncharacteristically gotten on his knees in front of the chairman to let him off on this specific day, and now this weapon freak's presence was about to wreck the day before it started.
"Not now, Goo. Why the hell are you even here?" Gun fixed his tie in front of his wide half-length mirror, scooped a generous amount of gel, and brushed his hair back neatly.
"Oh, come on, I was getting bored. Samuel wasn't picking up because of his Workers' Affiliate BS, and Logan has exams this week. For real? That guy should drop out already, it's no use."
"So you decided to stroll your way here to annoy me instead?"
"You got that right!" The blonde eyesore jumped up and hopped his way on square concrete blocks to one of the bamboo trees lined up along the fence.
"Whatever. You better leave the house before I do, or I'll stick that bamboo shoot you just pulled up your ass." Gun warned his house's intruder, who reached out to one of the young bamboo plants.
"Not everything is a katana, you anime samurai wannabe." He picked up his sunglasses and black coat and made his way to his Porsche parked in the space opposite the bamboo trees.
"Says the guy who bought a Japanese mansion in the middle of nowhere." Goo huffed a childish pout. "Jeez, I was gonna use these for cooking snacks, but you just had to give me a disgusting picture."
He gave the man in the car a side glance and sighed. "I was doing you a favor here, man."
-
The morning sun radiated a warm glow on the dark sheen of Gun's sunglasses as he swiftly drove through the outskirts of Seoul. The wide stretches of green pastures emerging from both sides of the road whistled a soft tune into his ears.
Unlike most people who want to live in extravagance with cameras shoved in their faces every single moment, there were times when Gun preferred to settle in a remote area, far from the reeks of city lights, where he could be alone with himself, his thoughts, and his hard-earned (i.e. bloodstained) money.
But of course, the nature of his work required Gun to be by his employer's side around the clock else his grand funeral wouldn't be much later.
So he made the best of these hand-picked moments when he could persuade his boss to grant him off-days.
-
Gun has the whole map of Seoul memorized from his monthly crusades and made that mental map involuntarily take the wheel and let his mind wander off for a while.
-
He pulled his car to a stop in front of a flower shop. As he got out, he noticed a gray umbrella hanging on a covered shed's railing.
'That bastard still owes me for that… and a shit-ton of money for losing in every bet.' But then again, he wouldn't have met Y/N if Goo didn't break his umbrella.
'Hah. No way I’m telling him.'
-
It was a stormy night with distant rumbles of thunder.
His eyes landed on a small figure of a lady in front of him and a bit to his right; the two were taking refuge under a mono-sloped roof of a bus stop.
Even with thick layers of bright-colored clothing enveloping her figure, Gun noticed her shivering with her arms crossed to her chest gripping her shoulders.
The man had nothing to do anyways beside impatiently waiting until the rain wanes, and everything else around him was too dull and gray to entertain him. So, his eyes remained on the peculiar lady, the only other color he could see; a color that penetrated even the darkest tints of his shades.
He examined her.
'The hell is up with this woman? It's not even that cold.'
-
Gun turned up an amused grin at the memory as he stopped over at a flower shop. He grabbed his coat and caught a whiff of lavender-scented detergent he recognized as Y/N's.
-
'Oh. It's her again.' Gun recognized the woman from the other day who had now crouched down to check his injuries. He tried telling her off but to no avail.
"I knew you were a gangster five meters away, dumbhead, but that doesn't mean these 'scratches' (as you called them) will heal themselves… I'm only here to do my job."
'Okay, lady. Be my pest.'
He yielded and rested his back against the brick wall at the end of an alleyway where this meddlesome woman found him.
A light trail of lavender caught his nose; 'That's odd…” his eyes lingered on the lady. “for someone with a sharp tongue and flashy style.'
Now that she's much closer with her hair tied up in a bun, Gun could examine her more closely. Unlike yesterday, she's in full white get-up now: a clean set of white scrubs matched with white shoes.
'A nurse, huh. Probably an intern because I'm looking at a fucking dwarf.'
"Shoot."
Apparently, patching Gun's 'scratches' made her miss the last bus.
"That's what you get for doing your job."
"Oh, shut up."
Droplets of pouring rain halted the bickering that was about the start.
Gun had to admit though, she did a stellar job mending his wounds.
Ego not permitting him to tell her his thanks, he nonchalantly dropped his thick coat over her head instead while noticing blotches of rain wet her uniform.
Recalling her trembling the other day, the self-proclaimed gentleman also offered to drive her home.
-
Gun's eyes lingered down his coat and figured he hadn't picked it from his wide selection of corporate attires to wear since Y/N returned it; he might've intentionally kept it there to let her fragrance rub off on his other clothes… or not, only he and God knew.
A bell chime signaled his entry to the shop, and a lady from the opposite end greeted him with a welcoming smile.
-
After paying for a bouquet of white chrysanthemums, Gun bowed and turned his heel to the wooden-framed glass door.
The cashier gave him a concerned look but settled with a short smile.
-
Gun decided to walk the rest of the way, paced long strides along the stone-paved sidewalk into the busier streets of Seoul.
Turning his head towards ordinary stalls he used to turn a blind eye to as flashes of Y/N’s twinkling eyes with her hand around the doorknob and an arm linked to his tattooed one surfaced.
A grin crept up to his cheeks.
Since their first encounter, Gun found himself driving past the hospital Y/N works at. Later on, it became a routine. Random nights when he stops by and waits for her at the bus stop in front to chat about each other's day or to give her a ride home, especially when it's raining. 
But of course, he took account of his schedule. He's a busy man, and his spare time, scarce; all of which however, have been filled in by Y/N the more they hung out:
Mondays to Thursdays, he would take the longer route to HNH Building, to have a cup of morning coffee (or so he says) at a restaurant near the hospital. Y/N would walk in, couple of squints later, then wave at him. 
"What a coincidence!"  she exclaims. "Yeah." he replies dryly. 
Fridays to Saturdays, Y/N's off-duty schedule. She would go to the public library to study for her weekly moving exams. It just so happened that Gun also reviewed for GED exams there (the real coincidence).
Surprisingly, Gun is good at memorization, so is Y/N at general trivia. It was effective mutualism.
Sundays were the wildcard. One is busy. Or both are busy. If neither, Gun would accompany Y/N to a random place she keeps going on and on about for the entire week or they would chill in his house (whether he wants it or not).
It's an actual miracle that Goo didn't catch them hanging out, really. Although, he had suspicions… getting a sweet trace of lavender in his partner's house when he barges in without notice (you don't just put "sweet" and "Gun" together). Or when Gun's mood swings become less and less frequent despite the blonde's incessant annoyance sprees.
Goo was itching to bully him for it, but he needed concrete evidence—the ones that would put the jackpot horrified look on the demon's stoic face.
Gun needs to be more cautious around his pest of a partner.
It won't be too long until Goo sees through his lies of checking into brothels on Sundays.
Ah, about that.
It's been ages since Gun set foot into one.
Huh.
Guess he found Y/N a more entertaining distraction from work than any bent back he broke.
They just… instantly clicked after their first encounter–like a string of Fate wrapped each of them in a disgustingly cute bow as a present for each other.
They were inseparable. One was the other's breathing space: from Y/N 's tiring hospital duties and from Gun's major crew business.
They were each other's pieces in the puzzle they didn't know were missing.
Friends... they would call each other. But were they really? Might've been even more if they knew what the force that attracted them to each other actually was.
(Ugh. Fate was having none of this folly.)
-
Gun stifled a laugh. A lot has happened in the short time he met her, yet there's still a lot to be unpacked for this lady.
-
"W-wait!" Y/N huffed, holding up a hand between her and Gun. "Not the one to use gender cards here but… go easy on me here, man. Clearly, you have the men's advantage in stamina." Y/N pouted at Gun with what seemed like an attempt to do a puppy face, but she only looked like a constipated shih tzu to him.
He raised an eyebrow but maintained his stance.
"Oh, cut the bullshit, woman. You run around the hospital 24/7. Sparring should just be a piece of cake to you."
"Still–"
"You think those harassing fuckers were the same brats you fought in middle school and go easy on you because you're a girl?"
His eyes scanned her from head to toe. He sneered.
"I bet bruises aren't the only thing they'll leave you had you let your guard down."
"Huh?"
"Nothing."
"Anyway, I don't know why you're suddenly so adamant, teaching me how to fight." Gun didn't answer, earning a glare from Y/N.
"Besides, I only wrestled those wimps back then to keep them from bullying other kids. That doesn't mean I'd actively engage in one now," She put her hands up in the air in surrender and crossed her legs to sit down, to which Gun loosened up.
"...unlike SOME people."
"You did last time at the park." He jeered.
Y/N rolled her eyes. "Well, duh. Those two creeps kept pestering me, asking for my number. I also texted you, but you left me on read. Did it look like I had a choice?" She eyed him daggers.
"Could've at least used your strength for something genuinely helpful, you sadist."
"Which I did, your punches were getting slow, and you couldn't defend yourself for two whole minutes when I got there, so I finished the job for you. Good work lasting for even a minute."
He was lying, of course.
As soon as he read her message, he sped to the location she sent. When he arrived, the fight had just broken out with Y/N caving in one of the creeps' faces with her clenched fist. He saw her give the other one a solid kick on the ribs and counter back with a knee to the face.
He could tell she had fighting experience, despite sluggish, with those limbs; and he just watched her fend for herself until she wore out…
He cringed.
Yeah… he is a sadist.
"You're right. Let me make it up to you by making you tea then." She used that as an excuse to end their training for the day as she stood up and went to Gun's kitchen.
The latter watched her back disappear in the hallway.
With how their conversation went, it seems Y/N isn't interested in becoming his successor at all. She already rejected him before he could even offer it.
"I guess beating people up for money isn't her 'cup of tea.' It's way easier than having a hospital suck your life out."
But not long after, when they were on their way to a cake shop Y/N wanted to check out, some weak-ass thief was also on the loose and unfortunately chose Y/N to be his target. 
Yes, that's right. Unfortunate for the thief.
Long story short, Y/N's hospital will get another patient.
Gun looked at the disfigured face of the stupid fucker with beaming pride at what his student is capable of (Y/N dislikes the idea of Gun calling her his student, though).
He then turned to his masterpiece with a pleased grin and noticed her with arms across her chest while shaking.
"What are you doing?" No response; she was uttering something with her eyes closed.
"I am safe; I am strong."
She seemed shocked.
'Eh. It'll pass. I taught her enough to deal with punks like these.'
-
The sun's afternoon rays peeked from the thin linings of thick-smoked cumulonimbus clouds. It dulled the shadow of the man walking on copper-bricked pavement.
Gun heaved a deep sigh. A couple of months ago, he was laser-focused on managing their debt-collecting business, then working as Crystal's bodyguard and finding a successor.
That felt ages ago somehow. His recent calendars have been him dealing with Y/N's antics. Not that he was complaining, he found it amusing to know a woman he could see eye-to-eye on things. No strings attached.
There was something about how she looked at him; neither a hint of fear nor looming intimidation.
Just warmth.
Warmth that melts the iciest of his glares. A soft smile that ebbs his turbulent chaos. Words that tear down his barriers, strip him off his 'Shiro Oni' persona, leaving him with just plain Jonggun Park.
He's also seen patterns of her behavior: the way her eyebrows arches up when she looks at him, the glimmer in her eyes when talking about her pets at home, her nose scrunching up as she recalls medical acronyms, her fingers curling up as she tucks strands of her hair behind her ear, her pouty lips and rosy cheeks when he teases her (his favorite). He memorized them all; and still she continues to surprise him with more.
Stitch that with mood swings and annoying outbursts, and you have Y/N!
How can a woman be so complex yet so... normal?
'One moment she gets mad when I keep my clothes all over the place in my own house, but then when I visit the hospital, she's the one who was all over the place herself with stress and panic...'
-
"The hospital was packed when you came in; it was just bad timing. I'm perfectly calm most of the time." She huffed.
That didn't convince him one bit.
-
She continued to weave questions into his mind.
'What was this weird fixation on this lady? How very unlike me to have interest in anyone beyond their physical strength. When did I start to…'
She does have a slightly above-average physical strength; he wouldn't have batted an eyelash at her if he didn't see potential.
Was that the reason why he was so drawn to her, though? Did Gun ever really sit down and mull over his odd relationship with the quirky Y/N, who is living a life opposite to his?
Oh.
...
That IS the very reason he got attracted to her; the fact that she's composed of a lot of things.
Unlike him, who lived the script laid out for him, she wrote her own.
Unlike him, who has only ever seen the thick crimson stains on his shirt, the light gray smoke he exhales from his cancer stick, and the overall black-and-white world he's caged in, hers was made up of different shades of life, the different hues of people she met, and different flavors of memories she savored.
All of them painted a picture of a woman that spilled color onto anyone she touched--including him.
She showed him what lies beyond his dog-eat-dog world.
-
"Dude, tell me. You're actually blind, aren't you?"
'Ah, shit. Here we go again.'
"Your eyes were gouged out in a fight and you spent years training with your remaining senses, didn't you? Now, you're hunting to seek revenge on those who wronged you."
Y/N gasped at her eureka moment. "I cracked the code."
"Cool backstory you've built there, but no. How the fuck could see the road if--"
"Or maybe you are a famous celebrity! They always wear sunglasses to hide their identity."
"Ever heard of famous celebrities getting into gang fights?" Gun knows one, though. But Y/N doesn't.
"..."
"There's your answer."
"Ditch the sunglasses then, you hitman try-hard." She pouted in dismay and looked away with her crossed arms on her chest.
"It baffles me how you still wear them even in training. Even now, you look more like my bodyguard instead of a friend. What the hell?!"
"Then, deal with it."
"Gah! You insufferable prick!" Y/N buried her face in her arms on the table.
Gun stared at her small figure with the very eyes that tickled Y/N's curiosity.
He had long forgotten what his inborn eyes looked like… those wretched eyes.
He'd rather gouge his eyes himself had he failed to unlock his unconscious sense.
He hated those eyes.
He hated how they made him look vulnerable and inferior.
He hated how "soft" they were and made people deem him incapable at a young age. Gun eventually made them eat their own words.
But most of all, he hated how they began to resurface around Y/N and became more frequent the more they hung out… he didn't want her or anybody to see his image that's been long since buried.
So Gun dulled them out with tinted shades. 
"Hey."
He called to break the awkward silence.
No response.
Gun leaned closer. At the same time, Y/N looked up.
He was caught off guard when she suddenly sandwiched his face between her palms.
"Hehe. Gotcha!" She snickered.
His sunglasses loosely fell down the bridge of his nose. Y/N caught a view of his ebony eyes for the first time, at which her eyes widened.
"Gun, your eyes..." Naked eyes meet each other for the first time. Locked as time stopped. Her sudden perplexion eventually subsided, turning soft as she rubbed his cheek.
"They are pretty."
He didn't know which pair of eyes she was looking at right now. But it didn't matter anymore.
The red string was dusted off to clarity.
-
He was taught to discard his humanity aside and embrace his pitch-black monstrosity all his life. Since then, that was all he saw--darkness. The void he had ever known engulfed all colors visible in the spectrum.
On the other hand, white emitted them, like how her ridiculously bright-colored clothing pierced his dark-tinted sunglasses. Her comforting rays of light were outstretched for him to latch on.
It was no wonder how he was captivated by her, ensnared in her mere presence.
He was a pathetic moth bewitched by the warmth of her lamp's flame. It was blinding. He knows she is a whole 'nother kind of destructive, and he shouldn't come close, yet her tiny blaze's euphonious crackle, egging on him to inch closer, lulled him into submission.
He was an Icarus flown to her scorching sun. He knew she would destroy him all along, and he let her.
-
Gun stopped in his tracks at the sight of Y/N 's family nameplate. He collected himself and took a deep breath.
"What a surprise, Jonggun! Are you paying Y/N a visit?" Her mother greeted him with a warm smile.
"It's been months, young man! We missed you!" Her father guffawed, lightly smacking Gun's back.
"Good afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. L/N." Gun bowed his head and offered them a box of cupcakes he remembered Y/N was gushing about. He appeared calm in front of her parents, but he couldn't meet their eyes–not like they'd notice anyway.
-
Gun snapped his eyes open and landed on Y/N below him; her eyes closed, and her hair sprawled messily around her. She looked ethereal with white draped over her peaceful form.
He got so used to seeing her face filled with intense expressions that her relaxed face seemed fresh as her other features popped out.
It's like falling in love with her all over again.
God, does she look beautiful right now.
She resembled an angel with wings spread on the cold, hard ground.
Ground?
Color drained from Gun's face as he got pulled back to reality at the sight of carmine ichor oozing from Y/N 's side, seeping through the stitches of her white dress.
It… it all happened in a blink.
She darted towards a lost kid who aimlessly crossed the highway, unknowingly about to get hit by a speeding car. She pushed him to safety and took the hit.
The lady beside Gun shrieked in panic and frantically fished out her phone to call an ambulance.
'She might not make it if we still wait for the damn thing.' He knelt down and checked for response and airway in her system.
She was unresponsive but breathing.
He knew this method. With how frequently he and Y/N were together, how she talked 80% of the time, more often than not, she had run him down the basics of first aid, even if they were out of the blue.
'Must've thought I didn't pay attention, huh? Too fucking bad, Y/N. I always listened to you.'
He carefully roamed his hands on various parts of her unconscious body to check for severe bleeding.
'Shit. Three of her ribs are broken. Her right arm is fractured, and she's rapidly losing blood.' His calloused hands cupped the side of her face where her silky strands loosely hung.
'Her temple is also bleeding, probably from the impact when she hit the ground.'
Blood. All too familiar. It never left Gun as soon as he got his first kill.
The sight of blood shouldn't faze him. But his hands were trembling the more he realized how grave her condition is.
It took everything for him to stop driving his fingers to her hair despite being spotted with dried blood. He withdrew his hands and brushed his stray locks back instead in an attempt to keep his composure.
He was planning on taking her to the hospital himself or treating her in his house (he already has enough nursing supplies for his personal use, but Y/N constantly nagged him to buy more for emergencies). But, in her current state, he couldn't carry her otherwise the issue with her ribs gets worse and affects her internal organs, if they weren't already.
"For emergencies, my ass. Can't use them right now, can I?"
Funny how Y/N remained her composure and even kept their banter going when she first treated Gun. Just goes to show that she IS calm at work.
It's kind of ironic now that they've switched places, though. Even if Y/N taught him all this medical stuff, Gun still couldn't do anything more helpful than wait anxiously for the fucking ambulance.
Gun pinched the bridge of his nose. These injuries wouldn't be a problem for Jinyoung Park. Gun could certainly vouch for that, as he and Goo were regulars in his lab when they were still on probation… when the man was still borderline mentally stable.
He would phone him immediately if he wanted to but decided against it because God knows what that maniac would do to her now at his current state, if he even agrees to tend to her injuries.
Gun withdrew his coat and covered Y/N 's upper body. He rested his left hand on her cold ones in hopes of delaying Death's touch on her.
Honestly, he was at a loss--which was a first; he didn't know what to do with it. But Gun knew he had to stay with Y/N until help arrived.
He curled his hand around Y/N's.
"She is safe. She is strong… She isn't alone."
-
Gun found himself uttering the same chant again as if in prayer.
He always viewed Y/N as a warrior shielding the weak, a saint devotees pray to for protection. She had always put others' well-being above hers--a trait befitting of a nurse.
But that overshadowed the image of blood and bones beneath her soft, paper-thin skin as it was under the guise of a rigid exterior.
Fucked up it may seem, but Gun knows he isn't at fault entirely for what happened: Y/N made her decision, was well aware of the consequences, and still chose to do it.
Even so, he could feel a stinging pang in his chest, telling him that he should've caught up to her had he ran and pushed Y/N and the stupid boy himself. But the four major crews were at peak then, so he ultimately chose to do nothing.
And it tore his heart--something he thought had been long abandoned.
The 'heart' was meant to be just an empty hole where every last bit of tenderness was carved out of his chest. The hollow pit that reminded him of his decision to walk the path of blood… was forcefully filled with infectious laughter, sweet melodies, and soft rhythmic heartbeats of life.
The words "Gun" and "sweet" didn't seem uncharacteristic when put together now, huh.
-
He gazed at what remained of her longingly, reminiscent of memories they'd shared, despite short.
"You painted my heart in different forms that I can hardly call it my own anymore."
Gun's grip on the bouquet tightened.
"We shouldn't even have met--we're worlds apart, for crying out loud. But Fate decided to fuck around people and chose us, I guess."
But at least he was able to see the world in color--for the first and last time.
He was never meant to have it, anyway.
...
"PFFT--"
Gun jolted on his seat as laughter echoed around the room.
Y/N wheezed. "I didn't know you could be so poetic, Gun Park!"
It took a moment for Gun to process his surroundings.
He is currently in Y/N's bedroom. A relatively small space compared to his bedroom, which is infinitely wider. Her room looks more lively and festive than his empty one, though.
Other than her working table, everything else was decorated with strings of polaroids, LED lights, and stuffed toys ranging from tiny crocheted keychains to life-size pillows randomly decorated the room.
Wow. There's a whole new world to be explored in here.
Gun waved his trailing thoughts away and finally faced Y/N, who sat on her bed. Her lively demeanor didn't cover up her poor condition though, which is painfully understandable.
He should've brought medical supplies that were piling up in his house. And cupcakes, really? He didn't go out for a picnic.
Well, it's nothing worse than her in a casket.
He cleared his throat.
"More importantly, how long since you left the hospital?"
"Two months."
"And you never even contacted me once?"
"Well, you've never visited me since… the accident. I thought you simply forgot about me, you being a busy person and all."
-
He TRIED to forget her, for Christ's sake.
After Kouji tracked the bastard's location with the car's plate number he sent, Gun didn't waste a second and pummeled the hit-and-runner to death.
Then… he carried on to another chapter of his life, as usual.
Gun wholeheartedly believed Y/N was just another fleeting name in his book, just torn scratched pages of requiems lacing love songs that weren't supposed to be written.
So, he let time help him forget.
Spoiler: he never did; he just couldn't. How could he when everywhere he looked, he saw her?
-
"I was… busy at work."
"See? Anyway, that's okay. Don't sweat it, man. My prank made up for it." She laughed it off.
Gun prepared himself for the worst when he entered Y/N 's house; he felt his stoic façade crack as a flash of disappointment in Y/N's face was conjured in his mind.
Her cheerful welcome (sneaky prank) washed all of his worries away.
In the end, it was better than what he anticipated.
"So, how are you feeling?"
She frowned, an eyebrow arched up in disapproval.
"The Gun I know doesn't give a shit about 'feelings'. Who are you and what did you do to him?"
He deadpanned. "Just… answer the question."
"To be honest, I feel like shit right now. Being bedridden for months? Getting injected with pain relievers, tons of prescriptions and rehab sessions, everyday? Now, I know how my patients felt…"
How talkative for someone feeling like shit. Even so, he let her talk–like how they usually did. It felt melancholic.
"...and I was finally discharged. They said I can go back to work when I'm fully recovered." She sent him a toothy grin.
Her eyes landed on the bouquet in his arms, and cocked her head to the side.
"Are those white chrysanthemums?"
"...Yes." He could almost see a question mark form on her lips.
"Dude, you thought I died or something? Why bring 'mourning' flowers?" She giggled.
"No? But…" He set down the bouquet on her bed.
"I heard that they have other meanings…"
"Oh? What are they?"
He plucked two flowers from the bouquet and inched closer to Y/N.
'Eternal…' he tucked one of them behind her ear.
'...and devoted love.' he pried her hands open and placed the second flower on them.
Gun rested his forehead on her shoulder, his eyes welled up at the contact.
He couldn't say the words out loud.
Not after leaving her when she was at her lowest.
...
Ugh.
This isn't how he planned it to go.
He really did love her--but he was also selfish. Distancing himself didn't do any better for the both of them; quite the contrary.
Would stitching back the torn pages heal their wounded hearts this time? Let their colors paint over the dried stains of their past and turn over a new chapter?
-
Splashes of rain decorated her bedroom window. The colors in her room desaturated as evening enveloped the sky.
"Gun," Y/N held his arms, squeezing them. "It's getting dark. I'm gonna turn on the lights."
"Let's… stay like this for a while." was Gun's only response.
Their close proximity. The familiar scent of her detergent. The nostalgic periods of tapping raindrops. The yoke of her shirt getting wet.
It was similar to their first meeting but a little different.
Y/N felt him shake. She chuckled and rubbed circles around his back.
"What's up with you, dummy? It's not even that cold."

Gun: quit school
Reader: why
Gun: join my emo band
Gun: We're called The Daddy Issues. We have-
Samuel Seo, daddy issues #1, lead guitar. He insists on 10 minute solos for every song. Has to be credited first all the time or goes batshit insane.
Jake Kim, daddy issues #2, lead vocals. He can't really sing but he shakes his ass and fans go wild.
Johan Seong, minor daddy and major mommy issues, keyboard. Also writes our angstiest songs. Him and Samuel provide a lot of background screaming on our tracks.
Olly Wang, not really daddy issues just wildly overmedicated. A maniac on the drums.
Eli Jang, WAS the daddy. Bass but fucked off with a groupie.
Daniel Park, absentee daddy, bass replacement but can do a bit of everything. Relatively new. I'm trying to get him to go solo to make more cash from him.
Y/N: What do you do?
Gun: I'm the record label. I made them sign their life over to me and now I just collect my cut 👍

Bongchon’s Bride
The plot : 9/10
The yandere : 8/10
The artwork : 9/10
Artist and author : Son Gaepi
Reading this manhwa feels nostalgic. Perhaps due to the art style and the rural everyday life story telling that reminds me a lot of classic artist like Mitsuru Adachi. In the sea of new pristine hyper-realistic art style, surprisingly Bongchon’s Bride does not feel outdated at all.
Tumblr media
Bongchon’s Bride is a tale of a noble man’s son, born from a concubine who may or may not be the noble man’s biological offspring. But seeing how the nobleman treated him, it was implied that Soongap was a child born from an affair or wedlock. Let alone like a precious son, Soongap was treated like a slave. His father did not acknowledge him, his mother was always absent even if she was physically around. Soongap was simply neglected since childhood. After his mother’s suicide, Soongap soon learned that he could not count on anyone in that house.
He was then sold to the nobleman’s brother’s household at the outskirts of the kingdom. Even though slow, life was predictable and good. Until he was involved in an accident and made him a broken goods. He then met a scary giant called Bongchon who was surrounded by gossips. Rumour had it that he killed people in the past and he was so strong but rather stupid.
Tumblr media
Soongap thought he was rather slow too, since Bongchon bought him, a slave good for nothing, for 50 sacks of rice. Bongchon brought him home, treated his wounds, fed him and clothed him, and at some point, introduced Soongap as his bride to his blind, deaf and rather sickly mother.
Tumblr media
Slowly Soongap realised that this man was unlike what people in the village thought of him. He might be a giant, but he was a gentle giant, alright. He was not stupid, he was just too considerate of others since Bongchon was too strong. He was extremely afraid of hurting other people. Soongap opened his heart to him and came to love his master/husband.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
A lot of endearing moments in this manhwa, but I can’t help feeling anxiou, since the stakes are high. Life as a slave during the time when slavery is allowed is indeed not easy. Relying on each other, Soongap and Bongchol strove to live happily ever after.
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
The yandere here is the third son of the nobleman father of Soongap. He was born from the last concubine, the legitimate wife of the nobleman. He was extremely attached to Soongap when they were kids. This attachment became unhealthy as they grew up. He was a quite complex character with grey motivations. I found his character quite compelling and his ending feels bittersweet.
Bongchon’s Bride is a decent read, packed with romance, slice of life and enough tension to keep it moving. Oh and I would recommend you to search for the R version. The smut is hot and sweaty 🥵

It would have been so cool if they had delved into this in the manhwa. If they did it right, Jennette could have been the first reformed villain in a manhwa (???? The potential 😭

The uniform Goo wears in the flashback, it looks like a Kendogi most likely, meaning he trained in Kendo.

not a wmmap post but can i just say the way asm characters get shat on for the most ridiculous reasons is just so weird. like people have complained about how other female characters than the fl are so watered down and lack depth, but as soon as they see ohara von heinrich not invite shuri to the wedding because she genuinely believes it would just send her away and didn’t expect her to be brutally murdered AT ALL they act like she’s the mastermind behind her death??? there’s literally a panel of her reacting to her death and she doesn’t seem happy she was so distraught. and don’t get me started on shuri herself, the specific hate she gets is just so… have we read the same story. she was fourteen when her asshat family shipped her off to be married to a dude old enough to be her dad, because she looks like the dead empress….. i’m honestly glad i didn’t even witness all the hate she got i would be so mad.

You hit the nail on the head! I‘ll ask for more professional assessment: honest opinion on Crystal?
Tumblr media
Following on from my ramblings about Sally Park. Oops! Edited to add in Zoe too.
Well written female characters in Lookism? Uhh...
When the bar is at an all time low, it's really not hard to step over it.
At this point, I've been pavloved to think that any female character that expresses a personality trait other than 'simp' is pretty good. Simp is fun when it's part of a list of characteristics (Zack, Ryuhei). Not so much when it's the only thing.
Long live PTJ, the greatest feminist. Anyway.
Female characters I like
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mary Kim
Love her. Empress of 2 seconds. Queen of my heart.
Surprisingly kept a platonic relationship with Vin Jin, showing quite a healthy mixed gender friendship. Sassy and smart. Loyal. Good taste in men (Jace). Is shown having a life and interests outside of a man.
On my hands and knees praying that PTJ doesn't ruin her. Kinda glad she hasn't appeared in a while so she is kept away from his incessant need to turn everyone into a love interest.
Lua Im
Once we got over the odd Johan panels, which I heard the Korean audience didn't like and I'm quite happy about, she's fine. And it's not that I care that much about Johan staying a single dog-dad, I just needed a coherent reasoning/build up why they would be interested in one another.
Lua has potential.
Sourcing intel, even impressing the likes of Gun? A little Muay Thai knowledge? Jake and Jerry scared of her? Lol. Ok. Good. Let's build on this.
Just please don't white knight her.
Crystal Choi (meh)
And Ms. Choi, because anon specifically asked. I really don't mind her? I know she's meant to be anti-Lookism but still judges people based on their looks eh. That's fine. Pretty realistic actually. Whatever.
She can be a bit bitchy for no reason. So can I. Handwaving all that.
What I do take issue with though, is her so called title of Business Genius. Please show me the chapter where she actually does something to earn that title besides the one where other people ooh-ed and aah-ed over her in the meeting with DG.
Wow she's sooooo gorgeous. Ok good for her. If that's the route they're taking her character then at least OWN. THAT. SHIT. Use her beauty and looks to sign deals and get what she wants. GOOD. DO IT.
Zoe Park (also meh... Wait)
Sorry anon, I think 'really well written' is a bit of a reach... She does have some decent character development, starting as quite a flighty, shallow girl and then showing that she has a heart of gold, liking both Daniels and. Huh.
Wait. You're right. She is pretty well written. She's selfless and kind and loyal to her friends, putting up with Logan's bullshit. There's enough of a character arc for her from the Zoe we're introduced to at first.
And I do like that she's good at maths too.
Wasted potential
Minseong Kang (Jake's momma)
Appreciate this is the older generation and from a much more conservative culture. Saying that, I am so over the slighted and bitter housewife rotting at home while her big powerful husband cheats on her.
And then some sort of marriage redemption cos they pop out a kid. Whatever. (Sorry Jake bb, I love you).
If you were going to do that, give me the most toxic red flag shit where they are constantly at each other's THROATS. Show me how they are equals. Can't live with or without one another. That's the good kinda shit.
Leonn Lee
I just. What the fuck was this.
A girl in Burn Knuckles? A group that reeks of testerone and (positive) masculinity? Show us why she joined! Show us why she stays. SURPRISE. Main character trait?? Having a crush on Vasco.
She could have been SO interesting. And she obviously trains, why not get her to fight?
Hate for irrational reasons
Joy Hong
Listen, she's not really in enough or significant enough for me to really feel one way or another about her. BUT. The reason I HATE her is because I was trying to write a headcanon involving everyone and then I got to Joy and I was STUMPED.
Sub in a plank of wood, and it would have the same depth of personality.
Truly. Who is she apart from Jay's sister and a Daniel simp? At least everyone else has something.
Others
I don't really think about them. Sera Shin has potential I guess.
And of course a special mention to Daniel's momma. She's not exactly a unique character, but who doesn't love her?
LET. THEM. FIGHT.
Lastly. Why can't we see women fight? Like the men's fights are realistic LOL. Ultra instinct? Smashing through walls? So why are women fighting men outside the realms of this.
And yes yes. Men are SoOoOoOo strong. But can they take a kick to the balls?
Are you saying Gun Park has been training his dick and balls and would be able to eat a hit there? He wouldn't go down like a heap of shit??
HUH. TELL ME THAT.
In Summary
Mary by and large is pretty well written. Lua has improved.
I don't care much about anyone else.
And I wanna see Gun, Goo, Sammy, Vin etc. get kicked in the balls in a fight.

Sooo, Olgami just ended and I must say, while a little rushed at first, it felt just right.
Can't wait for the epilogue and side stories to come out 👀
