BIG YES on an Isekai video!! I know peole are kinda sick of them by now, but I’m convinced it’s cause they ain’t reading the right ones 🥲. I would love to know which ones you’ve enjoyed! Villains are destined to die is *peak* isekai, it just get better and better each chapter. The angst in later chapters is so so good 😭 and our girl Penelope goes through so much while keeping her head up and her back straight - I really don’t have words to express how awesome she is, haha. You are 💯 right that the Koreans are pros at writing office romances. I love What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim? best of them all, but I’m here to tell ya the drama is coming 😌 Manhwa, especially the contemporary romances, are so good at pulling you in with charming characters and silliness, then once you’re attached to them, the story flips the tone and pours buckets of angst on you and changes everything about what you think you know about the characters. It makes these series very re-readable and I love it. I highly recommend watching the Business Proposal tv series, it is SO FUNNY. Also the secondary couple is to die for on screen 😳. It’s a different enough adaptation from the manhwa that it’s two very different story experiences.
Oh totally! It's a matter of choosing the right ones to read. There's really an isekai for everyone. There's drama coming in What's Wrong with Secretary Kim?? I am so looking forward to reading that!!! I love some good drama. Also looking forward to the angst in Villains. I still need to get around and watch some kdramas. I wish I had more time off to just watch things. I either read or work on content when I'm not working my 9-5. I'll definitely check out the Business Proposal kdrama though, especially if you're telling me that the secondary couple is to die for. I love them in the manhwa.
Cool video! Appreciate your honest review of everything. I was surprised by how much I loved What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim? Also enjoyed A Business Proposal as a partial re-read. You may have heard of it by now. It even recently got an anime adaptation- I highly recommend Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke’s Mansion. Who Made Me a Princess is a really good story with gorgeous art. This one is a bit contentious for some, but I’ve enjoyed every volume of Abandoned Empress. Bloody Sweet looks interesting, as well. Totally agree with you on having a printed volume in hand. Man, there’s nothing quite like it! ☺️
What's Wrong with Secretary Kim? was so enjoyable! I'll definitely pick up Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke’s Mansion soon while Barnes and Noble has triple points. I did see that it got an anime but I haven't watched it yet. Thank you so much for the recommendation!
I love your vids! I recently found you and I really enjoy them. In regards to the video I surprisingly haven’t read the 2 office romance ones lol but semi watched them. They both have a k drama. Secretary Kim is really famous. Although personally, while the dramas are not bad , I always prefers the comics. Also, I liked true beauty but it drags on later so I never finished it.
Oh nooo, sucks to hear that True Beauty ends up dragging on. I'm still on the fence about whether or not I want to continue reading the physical volumes for that series. lol
I've fallen into a small manhwa rabbit hole and I finished Secretary Kim and A Business Proposal on Tapas. I'm trying my best not to add more webtoon apps so I don't spend all my coins on these stories. But I'm surprised you didn't pick up any of the I died and was reincarnated in a fantasy world (insert tropes) because it really seems that there's an endless supply of those type stories in manhwa and they're fun to read also
I finshed reading My Gently Raised Beast, and i just loved it and I might start collecting it physically. And I just started to read Remarried Empress and omg i love it. And for True Beauty I like but I just didnt love it like other manhwa I read on the app.
Ugh I have so many to recommend but they are not printed😭 I can recommend atleast 3 . These are so far my fave manhwas , they are all cute and hilarious. I like funny romance manhwas , I think Korean humor is soo good in comics. -Daily Jojo (soo funny) this is a shorter read. It’s an office romance. I love the 2 couples in it. They’re dynamic is hilarious. The first couple, the guy cares a lot about how he presents himself and the girl not so much. He is very judgy and fake (it’s funny) and she’s chill. Despite this they become friends. This author is VERY creative, the format of this one is done through different concepts. -Meant to be. They marry out of convenience to get their parents out off their backs. They are DORKS. Also very funny. . -Pure Villain. In a world where ppl have powers there are police with said powers. FL, who’s overpowered (not a police)and doesn’t know how to control her powers has a crush on the police ML. She confessed (while masked)but it’s confused as an attack and she is labeled as the most dangerous villain. Also hilarious.
Also my fave isekai is “Leveling up my husband to the max” - Fl dies do you horrible stepmother and neglect from ML. She wakes up years before her death and tries to prevent this and tries to get closer to the prince who has nott nice before.
I hope you check some of these out. I recommend the first one since it’s very episodic and more chill so maybe it can be easier to get through on the phone.
Omg thank you so so much for all the recommendations! I really appreciate them. It must have taken you a while to type all that up so I'm very appreciative of that.
