The blonde is getting on my nerves from the very start I hate characters like him. I'm too sensitive with the likes of him so I end up getting disappointed if a mean and jerk ML win against the kind one. I have a feeling of the blonde's plan when he texted Kang with the place and then he brought and dressed Jooheon. Didn't know he's more of crazy as I thought. He's gone it bad.
I need to prepare myself for the next chapters, thanks for this
Can you send me the link to the novel? I also want to read it.
Yeah, what we don't see and what Jooheon tells us in the novel is that the blonde (Moochan) approaches with violence and scare tactics to try to bring him closer, while Kang treats him with care and love, so of course, he's not gonna fall for Moochan. He was in the dark with this awful job at the club and being around Moochan, and Kang brought him into the light with his unconditional support and finally love. It's quite beautiful.
Moochan actually does want him to work for the club to be closer to him, and he also knows the club pays well, so it's a bit conflicting to see him act kind of sweet in that way but then go off the rails in others. lol He can't control what he feels in his heart because Jooheon isn't returning his affections the way he wants, so he brings up the sister to try to provoke a jealous response.
Moochan filled Kang's head with lies too, so it's just really toxic because he almost completely ruined something that was blossoming that was beautiful. What I really love about Kang is that he takes FULL responsibility once he figures out what he did, and he completely shows such a humble attitude with this enduring love he has for Jooheon and and his daughter.
He's such a GOOD man that it hurts when people say I'm rooting for Moochan. lol I want to defend my guy! lol
It is rather sad with Moochan. I feel horrible for him because that's how he has lived his life thinking violence and intimidation is the way to get what you want because it was used on him, so he doesn't know any better. He does actually in his own way try to protect Jooheon, but again, he does it without Jooheon's knowledge most of the time (for instance looking after his sister), and so it's just all for nothing in the end.
Also, Moochan has a long-standing grudge and jealousy issue towards Kang since they were little children, so he sees Kang going after the person he loves, and he can't handle it. That's why he's after Kang again because he's so mad that Kang took away the one person he thought would be with him eventually, but all he does is hurt both of them a lot in the process. He's just rather delusional, and again, that is sad.
I would like to see Moochan and the sister get together, but I don't think the author would write that since it's not in the novel. I want him to find happiness, but it seems he just ends up alone.
I feel bad for the blonde too, but I can't just erase how horrible he is. He need to change for the better, even without a partner. Sure his character will most likely fall to those who are pitiful since it looks like he won't find someone at the end. But before that, I wish to see him apologize to his wrong doings.
I feel bad for him, but it's just no way to root for him. People tend to go for bad boys because they find the good guys boring. Seeing up to the latest chapters, I don't see any changes in his attitude so I really don't get it how they can say it. He did helped Jooheon but he's being an asshole to use that as his advantage to control Jooheon. He's good looking alright, but I can't see it because of his attitude lol
Let me join you in Kang's protection squad. He's done all the good things to Jooheon and I'm glad Jooheon's not falling for Moochan's move. Though it's really frustrating how Moochan can easily dragged him anywhere he want, but at least I know Jooheon is not stupid enough to fall.
I wish I could see more comments like you here. It's making me frustrated every time I see someone rooting for blonde without a proper reason. Sorry, I know we are entitled to comment what we want but when someone is being overshadowed with ridiculous reason I feel so attacked for the good ones.
First, I suggest re-reading it before you just start in at this point because this where things get sticky.
The ONLY reason Kang thinks Jooheon is a prostitute is because the blonde put it in his head. He implied a lie to his face, and yet, Kang STILL was willing to let it go because he felt so connected to Jooheon. You have to understand Kang is under A LOT of pressure because he's always in a competition academically with his sister and the only male heir, having bad headaches whenever he's separated from Jooheon and not thinking correctly from here on out in the first season. On top of that, Jooheon is a terrible communicator and scared of upsetting or disappointing Kang. Both have a lot of pressure, and it adversely affects their personal relationship with each other toward the end of the season.
Please guys the blonde seme, Moochan is attractive, yes, but he is VERY violent and obsessed in an unhealthy manner with the uke, and he may have raped him in the beginning had Kang (black haired seme) not saved him. Keep that in mind. I don't know how far he was going to go in that moment, but he clearly wanted attention from Jooheon who is petrified of him because he is too over the top and violent. Bringing up his sister was his way of trying to see if he could make Jooheon jealous which sounds insane, but that's how his mind works.
He thinks any attention he can get from Jooheon is enough. You can see it in his face that he wanted to be the one to be in his heart, but he's a mess, a total mess, and there's nothing positive about him. The blonde is very violent and is aggressive which has scared the uke to the point where he doesn't want to be around him or trust him.
While it mostly has to do with his horrible upbringing, it still doesn't change the fact he has done some really rotten things to him, so that's very toxic. He created a horrible situation between Kang and Jooheon not caring about anything but his own selfish needs, and that causes the couple a lot of pain.
Kang has wanted nothing but to take care of Jooheon and falls for him madly during his rut. If you re-read it, you'll see it more clearly how much he adores him. This is a VERY strict, by the rule book, never really feeling much kind of person who just adores Jooheon. He does EVERYTHING to keep him from returning back to that club. He gives him gifts, food, tutors him and yes, eventually showers him with lots of affection and adoration.
The seme really loves him a lot, and if we EVER get a second season, you'll get to see it more clearly. lol The reason they end up in this huge misunderstanding is because the blonde seme brought him to that club. He was trying to destroy them. He basically wants to remove Kang from his life, so the uke will be forced to turn to the blonde which is not a healthy love at all.
He lives by the theory that since he hates his life and has had such a hard upbringing that uke should be with him as he is under the impression he is as just as miserable (not true), and they can heal each other, but he can't express it in a healthy manner. He always uses aggression and scare tactics because he can't properly say how he feels until it's too late. I know that's the recipe for a lot of love stories in manwha settings, BUT he is second lead for a reason. He had his chance with Jooheon, and he just scared him. Jooheon didn't buy his sincerity.
If you read the novel, there's one part where Jooheon says to Moochan in front of Lee Kang:
"No matter how much I was fighting, there was no one I could hold onto ... But Kang was the first to give me a hand. Can you understand that? Feeling, that you were the mud bath of my life when Kang was my first light" .
The light glimmering in the dark gym.
The first person to come across a life that seemed difficult.
The affection that he had and that spread as if he were submerged in hot water.
All those shiny things, it was all his first times. And if you look at it from the outside, of course they wouldn't look like great things to an ordinary person, but to Jooheon, they were all like significant and beautiful footprints.
"How could I not choose Lee Kang ...?"
