Korean Entertainment Reading List (Personal Favorites)
Korean entertainment. If it's not your thing, don't come in. Compared with its former glory, Korean entertainment fiction has fallen off, but there are still people working hard to create it. I'll recommend books that suit my taste. They may contain spoilers and subjective opinions, so read at your own discretion. It's a niche genre, so let's cherish what we have.
