“It's been a while since a fic has made me FEEL this much. It's bittersweet, but in a way that leaves you thinking about healing, finding your way back to yourself and learning to be okay again. The relationship is so beautifully built, and the writing has SO much personality. I laughed, I cried, and by the end I felt the warmest feeling in my heart.”
“Two fuckboys, one company. Things start with a bet, then move to friends with benefits situation, while the connection between the pair deepens more and more. There are commitment issues, past relationship trauma and all those bet related doubts.
Ot8 as a bacground, supporting friends group.”
“Story about depressed surfer Jisung and depressed merman Minho. Jisung tries to find new way to live, after loosing his parents. Minho is on a quest of finding true love, so he wouldn't have to enter the arranged mariage.
This whole fic is blue. It's melancholic and poetic, and burning slowly. It's simply beautiful.”
“This fic starts in library. There's psychology student Jisung who spots hot librarian Minho and gets an instant crush on him.
But Minho is older and has his share of heartbreak in his life, so he's reluctant toward Jisung’s advances.
Still, they start to hook up as in no attachments agreement, but the feelings bud, and grow and rise above the surface of their arangement.
This fic is partialy hot, as the pair explores their sexual connection, part heavy from the angst. Both characters have their share in hurt, they need to overcome to get together.”

“Minho is a doctor, Chan is a music producer.
It all starts, when Jisung bullies Minho into creating a dating app profile, to end his dry spell. Which Minhp does reluctantly, because he feels comfortable with his life with no relationships, no hookups, no drama. His profile, weird as fuck, gets noticed by Chan. They start texting, they meet, unexpectedly there's so strong chemistry between them.
This all fic is about how both characters are convinced they don't need labels nor feelings, but they grow deeper and deeper feelings to eachother everytime they meet.
No drama, just progression. Fun to read.”
“Seungmin is best friends with Minho and Jisung. He finds out his friends have a sexcam side gig. He also notices unexpectedly, their videos turn him on, despite him being uninterested in sex and romance in general.
or - demisexual Kim Seungmin navigates towards trouple with Minsung. The journey is parts hot and confusing and angsty.
Very well written story, with balance between spice and angst and humour.”

“This is the first exclusively MinChan fic I have ever read (and am still reading) but it is so good!
I like how they twist the selkie myth so that instead of stealing the seal skin it is returning it that binds a marriage.
It seems like the universe is trying to pull these two together and only Chan realizes it.
It switches POV and you see both sides of a scene so you will be reading a repeat of the event however it doesn't feel repetitive at all and instead feels very engaging.
I probably missed some tropes tbh but you get the point.”
“It's a story about post enlistment Minsung. The pair tries to mend a giant hole ripped in fabric of their relationship, during two years of being apart.
Reduced contact, rumors, asshole mangement, saesengs and all that 'fun' side of being an idol. Theese things really can do a number on a relationship.
Also, the author have forseen the gecko, joining Minsung home, a year before it happened in real life. How cool is that?”
“Jisung has strong feelings to Minho, but he seems not to be interested in anything other than 'best friends' label.
So Jisung tries to crawl out of his misery by attempting to date other people. It so happens, that Minho scares away from him every potential date.
There's also that thing with Jisung’s family, that expect him to be a 'good omega', that finds his mate quickly, obey him and breed as soon as possible. His own opinion? His passion? His tattoos? None 'good omega' has them...”
“Jisung goes to Felix’s grandma home located in the secluded countryside. Everything to overcome his creative slump.
He meets a pack Felix’s childhood friends, that live in the woods and have those giant dogs. Everything wit that group of friends is strange, until it becomes even more out of this world, but then it turns out it's Jisung’s world too.
And he meets his love. And they're fated mates.”
“Chan and Minho are to get married and become leaders of the wolf pack. Chan's very protective over Minho to the point of the other felling trapped.
And then he met a guy that bears the same birthmark as him.
This is the fic about a conflict between obligation and heart and also about breaking out of limitations to shape one's own path.
The main mood is melancholic.
There's some eventual smut.”
“Mina, Chan's girlfriend, sets Jisung to introduce him to her twin Minnie. However, she omits any info on her twin's gender. Minnie is a very hot guy, but Jisung up untill now tried to date girls. Which didn't go well for him, honestly.
This is a story about Jisung recognising and acknowledging his sexuality. Despite the serious theme,
the mood of this fic is very gentle.”
“Jisung centered.
Jisung is a college student. Minho is his literature instructor. Married. 7 years older. Jisung doesn't care and flies towards love like a moth into a flame. Things inevitably go sideways.
This story held me captivated from the beginning. It's intense, full of difficult emotions and struggles. But we get happy ending, the last two chapters are like an aftercare.”
“Jisung hooks up with various people. For example with Chan (who has a boyfriend) or with Changbin (who also cheats his boyfriend). It turns out, all three of them are connected more than they'd would think or more than they would like.
This fic is mostly wall of smut, but the plot is there too, and it's good.”
“Jisung, quite successful music producer, is very socially anxious. He mets dancer teacher Minho via Jeongin, who's friends with both of them. The starting point is, Minho claims he's straight. The pair however gets closer and closer, unsurprisingly starts to form some kind of relationship. But being in the relationship with a closeted person isn't exactly the easiest thing.
Ot8 in the background.”

“I don't really read polySKZ but I appreciate how well this is written. I was hooked before I realized it was more depressing than I was ready for, however I couldn't put it down and before I knew it five hours had passed.
Basically Minho caries all the mental tasks in a pack and doesn't feel loved.”

“A slow burn royaltyxmilitaryxbodyguard AU ABO fic featuring Omega Crown Prince Jisung of the Southern Kingdom and Alpha Military Leiutenant Colonel Minho from the tyrannical Eastern Kingdom who's working as a spy in the Southern Kingdoms military.
Super slow burn btw. Enemies to lovers. The occasional gore. Lots of denial and angst. Fated mates. There's war. Hyunlix and Seungbin as side ships.”
“Seungmin is an idiot. He knows Changbin is his fated mate when he is first formally introduced. He hides that fact for over a year because Changbin is an omega and he a Beta. He doesn't believe it will work because his parents are omega/beta fated mayes and hate each other.
Its got the other ships too.

“Lee Minho is a vampire prince. Han Jisung is a poor worker who undergoes the mandatory blood test. His result? The highest quality blood. He is assigned as Minho's personal donor (blood bag). There is no direct feeding allowed, and the vampires do not speak nor look at the donors.
Trust me it gets really good.”
“Han Jisung is being targeted by a serial killer. Seungmin and Lee Minho are members of the police force set out to protect him and his best friend Changbin.
I genuinely don't have words. This is so good that I kept forgetting it was a fan fiction. The plot is so amazing that I would read it without the ships. I even skipped the (AMAZING) smut half the time because I was so invested in the investigation.
It has 36 chapters.”
“Minho and Jisung become roommates unexpectedly. It clicks betwethem, the become best friends instantly. They also fall in love with eachother other very fast, but there's long way until they dare to say 'I love you'.”
“Alone, that is what he is meant to be. Every day Minho wakes to a world obsessed with soulmates. Music, television, and books all celebrate the soul’s quest for its perfect mate. Minho doesn’t have one. It’s been a struggle but he’s come to accept it. That is until he meets Han Jisung.”
“Risking his life, Changbin sets out from his village in search of the place where all good things begin. At the grave of a fallen star, he hopes to find salvation for his pack and save his brother's life.
Only fate has different plans.
What is the price to save a life? And in the end, is it one he is willing to pay?”
“Someone told Jisung once that in the event of an emergency, a person should always know a lawyer, a doctor, and a trustworthy mechanic. Well, his friend Seungmin is in school to be a lawyer, his cousin Hwasa is a cardiologist, and he does, in fact, have a business card for a mechanic.
But not just any mechanic. No.
In his possession, Jisung holds the business card for the hottest mechanic who ever rolled in grease, with muscles, tattoos, and purple hair. But he has one teeny tiny problem. A brand new car with nothing wrong with it. What is a desperate gay with dreams of having sex on the hood of his car to do?
Well, if it isn't broke and won't be broke anytime soon... break it yourself.”
“Preparing to start a new chapter of his life working in the polished elite world of plastic surgery, Doctor Lee Minho is suddenly jerked into the past when a memory he’d long given up on reaches out. Flying to the remote protected island of Aear he hopes to get answers and find closure for wounds left to rot by his best friend’s sudden disappearance years ago.
Landing on pristine beaches he’s thrown into a world he could never have imagined where instead of answers he finds lies, heartbreak, and the cutest cult leader/nurse from hell… oh, and fucking mermaids.”
“It is said that a person will experience only three true loves in their lifetime.
The first is a love born of innocence, pure, and sweet. An easy love that introduces a virgin heart to the wonder of passion and the ache of heartbreak.
The second is a love forged through pain. A difficult love that teaches you about your worth, the things you cannot change, and the courage it takes to let go.
The third is the greatest love. The love that endures… surviving hardship to deepen with age. A love without limits. The love that lasts.
To Jisung, the man he loves, his living muse, Minho is all three.
To Minho… Jisung is simply the best friend.”
“He held his breath and settled in to wait, but Jisung never expected to live a lifetime without air...
Taken from his pack Jisung mourns his brother's death and prays for a swift end to it all. But what happens when instead of execution, he finds the love he'd spent his life waiting for?”
“Does time heal all wounds or are some simply too deep to come back from?
Felix's goal is to heal others. A lifetime spent helping couples mend their broken hearts means he doesn't have to look at his own. How long can he ignore the past before it catches up with him?”
“Life is hell, and then you die.
Minho's story is already written, his life spent longing for his fated mate and then death with a sword in his hand. He expects nothing else. This life's journey is nothing but a series of hits to his soul. It doesn't matter that he is the strongest or the fastest. He can only fight and run for so long.
But what if his story was rewritten? What if bottomless brown eyes and the kindest smile he’s ever seen, took the map of his life and redrew the lines? How would his story end? Where would the map lead? To happiness… love? Home?
And if that home was threatened… he would burn the world to save it.”
“Searching for death in all the wrong places, bounty hunter Han Jisung gets the opportunity of a lifetime… the chance to repay his debts and help his closest friend at the same time. The cost? Only his freedom… and possibly his life. But that’s okay, he never asked for it anyway.
Will Jisung find his end? Or is the vampire he sells himself to the beginning he hadn't known he was searching for?”
“Closeted Jisung and bartender Minho breakup. 7 years later they meet again and they have lived their separate lives and changed (mostly for the better). Lots of angst and mutual pining with a happy ending.”
“A ghost whisperer sets out to help a spirit move on, only to uncover lost letters, a decades-old mystery, and a love story that never truly ended. Somewhere along the way, he might just stumble into a love story of his own.”
“Minho is an exotic dancer, dating a scumbag violent boyfriend. Jisung is dating a girl. They both kind of feel, they should date each other.
Minho tries to get out of underworld, full of gangs, drugs, violence and blackmail. Jisung fights his sexuality crisis.”
“Minho fucks around a lot. He meets Jisung and want him too. Jisung isn't interested in being another body for a fuckboy. Minho developes crush on Jisung and decides to become his friend instead, if sex is off the table.
It's rather long way to a relationship, with decent amounts of angst.”
“What happens, when you meet your soulmate, while both of you are in relationships? Can you really fight the fated bond?
Heavy angst, because the soulmates fight the bond with all their might.”
“Football player Jisung has a massive crush on his teammate Changbin, bit Changbin interested in inexperienced lovers. So Jisung decides to gain some bedroom experience with the help of nerd Minho. Lots of hot scenes, lots of heavy angst, happy ending.”
“Jisung has a bucket list of romantic things to do in his life but no one to actually romance him. Minho, a guy from dating app, decides to get into the arrangement with Jisung, regardless the initial belief it was a sex list.
They fall in love, of course.
Tooth rooting fluff. Eventual smut.”

“This fic has it all. Thick, satysfying plot, hot sex scenes, humor, heavy angst, you name it. Its bitter-sweet and addicting, honestly.
Still work in progress, sparse updates.”
“2min fic that left me speachless. Study of heart, shatered in horrible breakup, that slowly heals back, under gentle eyes and touch. Rebound hookups/developing feelings/ emotional pain/crawling out of depression. Process of learning to trust in love again.”
“Changbin fucks around a lot, despite pining for Seungmin.
Seungmin wants meaningful, stable relationship, so he rejects Changbin over and over again, despite secretly having a crush on him.
Somehow, they become enemies with benefits. From this starting point they build trust and romantic connection to land as a pair.
'Enemies with benefits' was what bought me in this fic.”

“This fic has multiple ships in it, telling the love story of many not just the first listed and it really is an engaging and exciting story that made me fall so much in love with the concept. I recommend it to everyone and always re-read it at least once a month.”
“The car accident wasn't where it all started, but it is where it all started falling apart. When Felix's car is hit leaving the Fan Meet in February, it's worse than JYP let on and worse than Felix tells the other members. Relationships with those he was once closest to are already frayed, and he can't add new reasons for them to turn away from him.
Plagued by self doubt and a deep-seated fear of falling behind, Felix struggles to recover from the accident and to cover up what happened to him afterwards when he was hurt in a way that haunts him every time he manages to fall asleep through the pain in his back. His brothers will never look at him the same if they know. They'll never call him Sunshine again. He'll never close the distance between himself and Hyunjin if they find out how broken he really is.”
“This was a masterpiece. Minho only knows hunting sirens, and Jisung only knows hunting humans. For some reason Minho is moved to spare siren Jisung on a hunt, and because of that they must both go on an intense journey. Ugh. So good.”
“-Based in canon
-Spicy
-Dom Minho
-Jealousy
-Minho and Jisung become heavily intimate while both remaining completely oblivious to each others’ feelings but everyone around them can see it clear as day
Summary:
Minho has been in love with Jisung for nine years, fucking away his frustration with strangers as he constantly holds onto hope that his best friend will suddenly realise he isn’t straight and feels the same way about him. After finally confessing to Chan about his situation, his leader encourages him to date someone to try and get over it. When Jisung finds out about Minho’s new boyfriend, he starts getting jealous and doesn’t understand why, but with some guidance from Seungmin, Hyunjin and Felix, he begins to realise that maybe what he feels for Minho goes beyond just friendship. Situations unfold until one fateful night results in Jisung proposing a crazy idea which leads to the two making an intense deal where Minho becomes his sex educator, but despite the constant heated fire between them, both struggle as they continue to believe their feelings are one-sided. As the two dive headfirst into something that could either ruin them completely or make them realise what they have for each other is reciprocated, one question remains: how long will it take for one of them to confess, or will they break before that happens?”
“Written by the incredibly talented Lola_143, it's the kind of story that asks you to be patient and then makes that patience hurt in the best possible way. Emotional, intimate, and painfully tender, Render Me Holy is for anyone who loves their romance earned, their characters complicated, and their slow burn accompanied by a generous helping of emotional damage.”
“Tension like heated rivalry, but fluff like there is no tomorrow. I want to marry this story and print every single word into a love letter. 10/10 obsessed 💗”

“This slow burn is about two idiots who don't know how to tell each other that they love each other. There's lots of delicious smut and hair pulling angst, but it will all end with a happy ending!”
“Because the story and plot are interesting and written with care. The trauma and healing process are handled carefully and as realistically as possible.
Each character has their own voice and their own struggles that they work on throughout the story.
The connections between all characters matter just as much as the one between the two main characters.
There are many moments that will make someone cry, but they will be the moments most remembered in the end. And there are also moments that will make someone laugh, get angry, feel seen, and sometimes, even healed themselves.”
