I want to know the difference between these two writing techniques. Both styles would write about what the person had experienced. Why did the novel feel so good to read? Reading biographies only made people feel like they were learning about history.

Fictions and biographies are two different forms of literature. The main difference lies in their purpose and audience. A novel is a fictional literary form that aims to convey the author's thoughts, emotions, and values through fictional stories and characters. The purpose of a novel was usually to entertain the readers, so that they could have a relaxing and pleasant experience in the process. The readers of novels were usually adults who liked to read stories with depth and complexity. Biography was a realistic form of literature that recorded a person's life and career and passed it on to future generations. Biography was usually presented in the form of words to pass on the thoughts, experiences, and values of predecessors. The audiences of biographies were usually adults and the elderly. They liked to read detailed records and descriptions of historical figures and events. Although novels and biographies both aim to convey information and emotions, their ways of expression and readership are different.

Even though Young Jae did not want to disturb his lover, he knew he needed some help to impress his boss. "Never for you, love. Tell you what you need?" Min Jun did not lift his head from the file he was going through, but the warmth in his voice reached Young Jae's heart without fail. "Do you have a minute to help me in reviewing my monthly internship report? I have to present to our boss tomorrow morning." Young Jae pouted as he asked. Min Ju looked at his adorable tokki and smiled mischievously. "You are brave, asking your superior to help you sneakily. I can't do it for free. I need a huge bribe to help you. What are you planning to offer?" "Be serious. You have too much work to do." Young Jae chided his shameless boyfriend, who never failed to seize every opportunity to make him moan and groan as he takes him to the pleasurable heaven. "Exactly. I have too much work to do. If I am taking my time to help you, I need something in return. Something so tempting that I don’t mind cramping lots of things later." Min Jun smiled like a devil he was as he grabbed Young Jae towards him. The little rabbit who fell into the cunning wolf's lap did not even get a chance to protest as he was devoured breathlessly. Young Jae forgot why he entered the wolf's lair altogether. Min Jun pushed the files away to make space for his little rabbit to lay down comfortably. Young Jae’s report was long forgotten as a treacherous hand started to caress him again under the shirt as a sinful sound filled the room.

What was the difference between a novelized biography and a biographical novel?

Fictionalized biography and biographical novel both transformed the content of biography into literary works, but there were obvious differences between the two. Fictionalized biographies usually rearranged and processed the story, characters, plot, and other elements in the biography to present the theme and content of the biography in a more vivid and interesting way.

Biography novels were the presentation of the content in the biography in the form of a novel. Usually, the characters in the biography were re-shaped to add fictional plots and dialogue to highlight the character's personality and characteristics.

Therefore, although both novelized biographies and biographies were literary works, there were obvious differences in form and content. Fictional biographies paid more attention to the interpretation of the theme and content of biographies, while biographical novels paid more attention to the creation and presentation of characters.
