After a disastrous breakup with a trashy ex derails her college life, I-Hyeon Seon disappears from campus for three long years. When she finally returns to finish her degree, she has one rule: no dating. Keeping her head down and surviving senior year quietly is all she wants—until Chan-U Nam enters the picture. Known as a notorious bad boy, Chan-U takes an unsettling interest in I-Hyeon, refusing to back off no matter how hard she pushes him away. As attraction, irritation, and unresolved trauma collide, I-Hyeon finds her carefully rebuilt walls under constant pressure. Something has to give—but whether it’s her resolve or his persistence remains to be seen.
Rules for Dating Trash thrives on friction. This isn’t a soft romance—it’s one fueled by emotional resistance, power struggles, and the uncomfortable pull between wanting closeness and fearing repetition of past mistakes.
I-Hyeon’s guarded nature feels earned, making her reluctance refreshing rather than frustrating. Chan-U is intentionally provocative, walking the line between charm and trouble in a way that keeps readers uneasy but engaged. Their dynamic works because it acknowledges toxicity rather than romanticizing it blindly.
This webtoon is ideal for readers who enjoy modern college romances with bite—stories that explore attraction, boundaries, and emotional scars without pretending love is always clean or safe.
