Title : 4.5/5

I understand that this story revolves around the piano man which gives out the mystery vibe but it's just too direct,maybe you can twist it a little bit. Since they shared the same interest which is the piano and the beautiful notes, in my preference you relate it just to be more creative...but overall it's great!

Graphics : 5/5

The main poster is pretty but the font is so bold that it almost takes the mystery vibe off but the side poster is beautiful and fits the angst-romance theme you set. Love the sentimental value in the main poster though~Owh and I didn't watch the video because I didn't want to bother my brother.

Description : 10/10

The description was on point but for Yoona's, I think it does not quite fit when you said that everyone believes she's perfect when they actually gave her nickname. It's just that in my opinion, perfect means you're lovable and such.

Plot : 23/25

The plot has what it takes to be a good plot. The was intense and it's your story so I don't think I deserve to say too much but it's my opinion and there was a teeny-weeny part of the story that I kind of hesitating.The alternate ending is...should I say a safer choice?

Characters : 25/25

You really describe the characters well and put me in the mood. It doesn't need those lengthy sentences but just a few simple words and comparison between each characters shows their  distinct personality which is great.

Grammar : 17/20

Nope, I'm not the grammar Nazi but I suggest you to re-check your story for some sentences got me confused and there were typos,just a small part.The construction of your sentences is well done but sometimes it made me read the same paragraph twice and sometimes thrice. There's a part that made me wonders who's your appointing to but re-reading it, I see it, the perfectness of your sentence and the weird me.

Enjoyment : 8/10

I personally love this story and both of the endings. This is why I just love reading other people stories because there are tonnes of stories and for me to read one by one is hard. I prefer it if you merge both of the endings into one. I love that the original ending never lets the mystery and angst vibe off the hook and the alternative ending is quite off the trail but it's a happy one, and everyone loves happy ending but for this story...I don't know. You really pinned the idea on giving the story the fairytale mood but the common thing between the two was that something was missing like her friends reaction or what about his family, yet both of them are the perfect ending.I just thought that it's better if you let Yoona guess her relationship with Junsu for the alternative ending, making the reader guess a lil bit.

TOTAL : 92.5 % (Still an A+...^^)

Others : This story is quite slow but it have a pace and each chapter still serves it purposes and you wrote it very well. Not that I hate the comparison you made with other things (e.g; generator) but just lessen it a bit because it disturbs me, somehow. Just my opinion, no hard feelings because who knows somebody will actually love it. All in all this is such a great story. Good luck with your entry~!

Chapter 6: Thanks for the review!!! Yeah I have problems with typos. Sometimes I proofread my chapter like 6 times and I still can find typos.

I'm glad I manage to intrigue you ^^ some people say that it's too was early to get reviews cuz I still have a long way to go. It's kinda true cuz until now, nobody can guess the actual plot I have in mind. The trailer was from a shop so there are parts that I don't intend to have. Like Taecyeon doesn't appear to save Yoona or anything like that. That's just cliché.

Thank you so much for the review and pointing out things. I'll proofread whenever I'm free and I'll definitely tell u after I credit the shop. Thanks again ^^

Short Summary:

Everyone in Fantagio Academy knows that Cha Eun Woo and Im Chae Mi are archenemies. Hence, they are better off fighting than cats and dogs. Maybe it was because of Eun Woo's irrational thinking, or maybe it's because of Chae Mi's pride. Whatever it is, everyone knew that the moment they laid their eyes on each other, they were enemies. It was hate at first sight.



There are four events that are associated with gowns in Fantagio Academy, and those events has something to do with the four seasons, summer, spring, autumn and winter. Chae Mi wasn't into those events, but she went to the autumn ball anyways.

Chapter 5: Hi there!! Sorry for the long response, and I'm glad that you like this story, despite the flaws and all. It's my first ever proper one shot and yeah, I gotta agree that the details are not there and there are vague reasons why they become the way they are now. I was writing what went through my mind that time, I guess that's the reason why this story is so emotional with lots of holes in it. Anyway, thanks for the helpful review and I already credited the shop!

Story Title: Yours, Faithfully

Story Link: http://www.asianfanfics.com/story/view/1031022/yours-faithfully-angst-donghae-snsd-taecyeon-taecyoon-yoona-yoonhae

Short summary:
It was all just an act
It was all just a lie
It was all just a play
To make her die.

Donghae promised the woman he thought was the love of his life to crush the fragile Im Yoona to pieces. He will make her cry. He will make her suffer. He will make sure she dreads the day she was born.

A mysterious man
A beautiful wolfish grin
A dark background
A mark that will tarnish her purity

That was all she could think about him. She had fallen deep for him from their first encounter. And when this stranger she barely knew popped out a ring and ask for her hand in marriage, she immediately said yes.

She didn’t realize she was digging her own grave…
