First or third pov?

It's about my hunhan fic which foreword I put log ago but then decided to hide it.

Well, basicly it's about poor student who falls in love with the rich one.

Anyway, I don't know should I write it in first pov or third? I mean, if I'm going to write it through the first, then it will be Luhan's pov, like the whole fic in his pov.

So I don't know what should I write, Luhan's perspective about what is he going through or just stick with the third pov because all of my fics are in third pov and I'm kind of used to writing in it.

Please help :)

Third POV is better

I'd say third POV for the possibilities it offers

It depends on what you want. If you want the readers to have a more personal connection with Luhan, then I suggest First person, but if you want your other characters to be more rounded and not just seen as good or bad (since if w'd get them from Luhans pov we'd only get how he felt about them) use third person.

You should do what you are comfortable with but if you're up for a challenge then I would suggest doing first pov since it's pretty hard

First pov is really hard to do, so I would go with third pov

It seems everyone here is a thirdpov kind of person. Honestly, firstpov is harder to do, but it can produce really great effects. My favorites stories that i've written are the firstpov ones, so I'm a more firstpov kind of person. I think if you did the story from Luhan's perspective in firstpov it gives the romantic connection between him and Sehun a more mysterious tone. The reader is lited to only what Luhan knows, so you can use this to surprise the reader with unexpected twists, and if done right you'll leave the reader unable to stop reading, because they've become so invested that they must know what happens next.

Third is almost always best. I have used first on rare occasion, and it does produce a nice effect, it can be tricky to make it work.

I personally have a huge preference for the third person, as you can describe more things than what one character can discern. In a way, although the first person gives an outlook at a character's thoughts and feelings, it is quite a limited vision of the events.

Always go with third in my opinion and if you want to write his thoughts in first you can always write them in italic

It depends on how much you want to go into Luhan's perspective. What do you want the focus to be on? Do want to delve deeper into Luhan's mind and show how he sees the world? Or do you want readers to see the entire world as a whole, not just honing in on one thing? It's your choice, but I'd think about how you want to tell the story
