Cheat Sheet
Like I said, I'm not here to judge your grammar or whatever since English is not my first language too, and frankly speaking I don't think I'm capable to do a detailed review. So I will judge the story based on... my preference? Something that I can enjoy, even the most basic plot can be enjoyable if the author writes it well, right?
- I like famous pairings too, I just want to read more rare pairings nowdays. Out of these: Surong, Hanmi/Baekmi, Baekji, Kaieun, Taokyung, Chenjoo, and Seyoung, I like Surong and Seyoung the most. (Make sure you read the Special Karma Gifts in the Prizes!)
- I don’t really enjoy stories that changing POV, especially between characters and then to authors’.
- Too much Konglish is uncomfortable for me to read. Hyung, Oppa, Unnie, Noona are fine, but... ppali, arrasso, gwenchana, etc is not recommended.
- Generally, I like fluff more than angst, and I really like hs!au or college!au.
- But since I said we need varieties, not only from pairings but genre also, think about these: xmen!au/power!au, crime!au, fantasy/supernatural... ...
- I don’t believe in ‘100% evil antagonist’, in which you make a very bad/mean character.
- Arranged marriage is too common, but if you can write it nicely, of course I don’t mind.
- People don’t fall in love in one day... Most of them don’t. I like the process of falling in love.
- In my opinion, gay guy falling in love for a girl is rather insulting.
- Anything else you want to know? Do ask!
