''Robber x Lover'' is a Korean BoysLove webtoon by PENGKI. It is officially available in English from [[https://www.lezhinus.com/en/comic/robberxlover Lezhin Comics]].
Ji Ho is a university student who has managed to get a killer deal on an apartment. Downtown Seoul, near a train station, in a quiet neighborhood, cheap and spacious -- it seems too good to be true.
His first day there, he runs into a robber in his apartment. Said "robber" doesn't seem interested in taking anything, but is ''very'' interested in an unfinished story Ji Ho had written in some notebooks, which was abandoned due to lack of spare time. He offers a deal: he'll become Ji Ho's new roommate and keep house for him, so Ji Ho can have time to write his story.
Thus begins a strange living arrangement.

!!Contains examples of:
* AnimalMotifs: When Gang Dojin first approaches Ji Ho the morning after their first encounter, the former has a tiger's head behind him while the latter has a scared rabbit, representing Ji Ho's feelings in the moment.
* DissonantSerenity: After Gang Dojin leaves to slam his head against a wall in frustration over being mistaken for a robber, he reenters and offers to sit down and talk things out, blood dripping down his face from where he smashed it and wearing a calm smile.
* HeadDesk: When Ji Ho calls Gang Dojin a robber, the latter slams his head against a wall in frustration.
* MediumAwareness: When Gang Dojin offers to talk things out in episode 3, {{Bishie Sparkle}}s appear around him with onomatopoeia; one of Ji Ho's responding thoughts reads: "Don't try to trick me with the background and sound effects!"
* MeetCute: The two main characters meet when one tries to return the other's things and is mistaken for a robber.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: An unlikely series of events leads to Ji Ho mistaking Gang Dojin for a robber in their first encounter. Ji Ho had returned to his apartment with groceries, not noticing that a hole in the bag had resulted in things spilling out on the way. Gang Dojin picked up the items, following the trail back to the unlocked apartment. On the way, one of the items, a kitchen knife, fell out of its sheath and he picked it back up. Entering the apartment and putting the items in his arms aside, he heard Ji Ho's cry of surprise at discovering the hole in his bag. Approaching in concern, he tripped on a box and fell on him, the knife pinning Ji Ho's hood to the floor and becoming stuck.
