Suite: Side of Passion novel spoiler thread
Side story following after Passion (main) and Diaphonic Symphonia
main plot IMO: ilay's having nightmare over what happened at the end of DS. The asian branch of UNHRDO is unlucky enough to witness him dealing with it in real time lol
actual plot:
-while ilay was away, tae got a call from jae, telling him the aunt taking care of their house passed away
-since neither he nor jae had any plan to live there again, they decided to sell the house, and Tae's returning to Korea to take care of it
*pic taken from actual novel cover, no audio drama yet lol
ok you know how passion vol 4 is half drama and half action, then vol 5 is like full drama, only for vol 6 to suddenly be crammed full of action?
it's the same way with DS. vol 4 is mainly honeymoon + drama, then suddenly in vol 5 you got all the betrayal + horror action scenes
*pic taken from cover of audio drama
placeholder
-Chris' POV increases in this vol, but I won't focus on his POV much
-Richard forced himself on Chris
-very uncomfortable for richard, who hesitated all the way, and painful for chris, who couldn't even understand what was happening
*pic taken from cover of audio drama
don't be fooled by the serious and sophisticated look of the cover, this volume is mainly consists of
-bar fights
-car chases
-wacky misunderstandings spiraling out of control creating many mishaps
-tae: i'm not even get paid for this >:(
LMAO

I caved in and actually started reading monochrome rumor novel on ridi. Considering my short attention span, we'll see how this goes π
Mainly i just want to know who sihyeon ends up with in the end/who is the ML, but it seems it's still a long way to go since I start at ch43.
...why ch43, you asked? Why not, lmao π
Anyway this ch the group is shooting an MV, and the director is a fan of sihyeon's face...

Been reading webnovel of Return of the Broken Constellation since I'm too impatient to wait for the webtoon lol
What draws me the most from this kind of novels is the relationship between MC and the people closest to him β€οΈ
In Return of the Broken Constellation, I love LOVE LOVE how despite never explicitly stating he missed his family, Lee Changseon (the MC) does everything he could to be a better son to his mom T__T
Then it turns out his big bro and sis actually cared about him lots--

Frozen Player Returns getting licensed in English kinda makes me want to continue reading the novel again, so here's some novel spoilers
Around ch90-95, kal signer got order to capture seo junho alive. Needless to say, he failed and got killed instead.
What was interesting is he is a bow user, and from the description he had Fate's Gilgamesh's ability: shooting like 100 bows at once lol
