It is a Hwang Mi Ri series (so it's rather...more bland than I'd normally recommend and our main female can be quite stupid) but it is one of the better ones I've read. There are two more I could mention off the top of my head but I wouldn't recommend those to anyone as they're really bad series. I could keep looking though (my list is too long to keep track of). ________________ Tesla: If an immortal vampire dies in a virtual world- Magnus: -does he make a sound? _______ Likes: Action, adventure, drama, fantasy, historical, horror, mystery, psychological, sci-fi, seinen, shounen, supernatural, tragedy ...I read too much >.>

Spoiler (mouse over to view) From what I recall, there's a "perfect" guy who genuinely seems to like the main girl, but in the end he doesn't measure up to the main guy. I remember him being a little smug at times, usually accidentally obnoxious or would interrupt at inopportune moments which made the viewers annoyed at him...
