My Thoughts on Plum Candy Love
"Plum Candy Love" is a completed Korean BL novel that I found myself drawn into, despite some initial reservations. With a sweet premise, this story follows the budding romance between two high school boys, navigating the awkwardness and excitement of first love. While it has some drawbacks, I ultimately found it to be a worthwhile read, especially if you're in the mood for something light and fluffy.
First Impressions
I'll admit, the beginning was a bit slow for me. Several readers mentioned that it takes a few chapters for the story to really pick up, and I agree. The writing style, told from a first-person perspective, can feel a bit diary-like, which wasn't my favorite at first. However, I stuck with it, and I'm glad I did.
What Works Well
The core of "Plum Candy Love" lies in its characters and their relationship development. The male lead, in particular, is a standout, with his rough-around-the-edges way of showing affection being both endearing and surprisingly hot. I also appreciated the realistic portrayal of teenage insecurities and miscommunications. The story doesn't shy away from the awkward phases of a relationship, which made it feel more authentic. Many readers praised the smut scenes, describing them as surprisingly well-done and mutually enjoyable, focusing on both physical and emotional intimacy.
Areas of Concern
Despite my overall positive experience, there were a few things that bothered me. Some found the MC's constant insecurities frustrating, leading to repetitive cycles of chasing and apologizing. Also, the first person narrative isn't always clear as to who is doing what, which can be confusing.

While it has its flaws, the endearing characters, realistic portrayal of first love, and surprisingly well-written smut make it worth checking out. It might not be groundbreaking, but it's a charming story that I'm happy to have experienced.
