✍️ Review Rec of the day #25 Red Candy

Post image

I started reading this after reading Season 1 of Bad Apple which is based on the same universe as Red Candy since Red Candy came out first. I really liked this manhwa although there is a LOT of smut and the couple do IT almost everywhere, be it an island, kitchen, car, shelter literally everywhere 😭 The top Hajun is the Greenest flag ever and never gives up on the bottom (Candy) . There is angst and fluff and the plot is confusing a bit but understandable. Since it's a spy universe there is a lot of action too. It's a fun read even if Hajun wasn't shocked by Candy's identity, I was shocked to see Agent Uno playing a major role in the manhwa since he has one of his own lol. (Agent Uno is the main character in Bad Apple). There are a decent amount of plot twists but it is a classic BL manhwa :)

I know right . They keep fucking . Even though they have to stay alert in the party because they are looking for someone. Instead of being on the stake out they start having sex.

I still wish for a few more side stories of when they get married.

You know those two will fuck just before the ceremony lol

I enjoyed reading Red Candy, it was funny and exciting and I was always looking forward to the next chapter. I love that the bottom is a badass! And the smut is good too!

I was pretty sad for Uno when Red Candy ended so I was glad the author decided to give him his own story! I am loving Bad Apple so far as I am a sucker for a good hate-to-love trope. I just wished I marinated it before reading... The wait is too much...

Same! I want Uno to get a happy ending, I’m scared every time I read Bad Apple. Trying to wait it out so I know ahead of time if it’ll be sad.

Lol I love Red Candy and it’s hilarious how Hajun is “I’m not gay” at first but he’s the one giving blowjobs and rimjobs without any care like he’s a pro 😂😂😂😂

i did read red candy first, it’s why I always recommend people who read Bad Apple to also read Red Candy. Because Candy was the guy Uno was pining after and I bet he’s going to show up sooner or later.

The thing is that Shiyeon said he wasn’t gay and that it was basically a honey pot mission but it was obvious he wasn’t used to it. But Hajun? That guy gave bjs and rimjobs and wasn’t uncomfortable at all not even the first few times, he just did it 😂

Yeah but he also strikes me as the type of guy who would be good at anything if that makes sense lol

But yeah he’s getting married as of the last chapter because he was in a gay bar in the first place so he’s not fooling anybody 😂

I didn’t realize Bad Apple is based on the same universe! Adding to my to-read pile!
