Exactly this!!! I want to see YEARS of groveling and Haejoon miserabley chasing after him and Jitae just being unaffected like he doesn't mean anything to him anymore! that's what this asshole deserves
BRO SAME. I WANTED MC TO ACTUALLY LEAVE AND COME BACK AFTER A FEW YEARS AND SEE THAT ML HAS STILL BEEN LOOKING FOR HIM AND IN PAIN CAUSE OF IT.
Right?! I want him to leave, come back in a few years and become the unbothered king on his own. Advancing on his job, become highly sought after designer or whatever, and then seeing the realization that Haejoon has become nobody in his eyes. That will be the greatest revenge imo haha
The ultimate revenge is when you can be a better version of yourself and not feeling anything anymore when you look at the problematic man in front of you because you can be amazing on your own. I wish Jitae could have experience that feeling instead of being treated like a door mat in this way by everyone around him. But obviously the author doesn't really care enough about him to put him back again so easily with the evil Haejoon as if he didn't do anything so heinous before.
Honestly! Like I wouldn’t be mad if they at least made their romance believable. Like I’m so confused when or how the ml fell for the mc. Nothing big even happened. All they did was have sex. Like, if you’re not even gonna do the bare minimum, why the fuck would I dare whether they get together or whether the ml deserves to be forgiven.
I’ve read a lot of stories where the ml is an asshole that ends up regretting it, and this is like the worst one I’ve read so far.
Care*
Omg yes hahaha this is also one of the most crucial plot hole in this manhwa. At which turning point does Haejoon suddenly become infatuated with Jitae because the last time we saw him, he's STILL betting on his relationship with Jitae with his friends. He was dumbfounded only because Jitae accidentally hearing their convos and suddenly for whatever reason he's being so adamant about asking forgiveness from Jitae??? And suddenly he is crazy in love with him and regretting the bullshit he put Jitae through?? Just 5 minutes ago he's still makin fun of Jitae and now are we supposed to pretend like we didn't see that, like make it make sense, Author And his toxic female friend is also a serious manipulative asshole omg don't even get me started
So sad because this story has sooo much potential to be really good, I mean the art is good, and the base of the story started pretty good too albeit cliche. Yet it's all going downhill in the middle and the whole potential just become wasted sigh ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
LOL MOOD. LIKE IF WE DIDNT HEAR HIS THOUGHTS ABOUT HOW HE DOESNT LOVE HIM IN LIKE EVERY CHAPTER, I WOULDNT HAVE BEEN THIS MAD. LIKE, WE LITERALLY HEAR HIS THOUGHTS EVERY OTHER CHAPTER, WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO FOOL?!
Honestly, rather than regret, he’s giving “waaa I wasn’t the one to break it off, boohoo” like he’s a kid throwing a tantrum cause it didn’t go like how he wanted it to go
Seriously tho, this could’ve all been fixed if we never got his pov before the reveal. Like, we could’ve gotten his pov when it’s revealed to the audience that it’s a bet. But after that, don’t ever show his pov. So, when everything comes to light, you can run back on his pov and show how he had fallen in love. That way, it won’t feel so out of nowhere or that he’s just mad he was the one that got dumped.
agree with both of you! how are we supposed to believe he's actually in love with Jitae genuinely?? in my opinion he's only sorry cuz he was caught. there was no apparent ounce of remorse prior to the sudden crying and begging it was such a 180 out of nowhere and honestly, this entire situation is so fcking disrespectful to Jitae. like, why should he even for a second be made to feel bad?? why is he being forced to forgive this asshole because of his stupid pregnant sister?? they're all so fcking selfish. I'm going to be so incredibly disappointed if he just forgives him like that.... because let's be honest, if I was in his shoe, I would find it extremely difficult to trust someone like him. So why would I willing put myself at risk again? without making him do the work to earn my trust before forgiving him.
To be honest, I don't know if this author just doesn't have the ability to create a decent flowing plot, or this just have to do with the toxic romantic relationship culture in South Korea, or maybe the author is being rushed, or maybe it's a little bit of everything, but this story actually has really good "Karma" and "Regret" Arc yet everything was GOING DOWN THE DRAIN.
Those scumbag siblings deserve their karma and regret. I need to see Kyunghoon finds out the bullshit his wife did to his bestfriend and actually reprimands her for it, not because he has feelings for Jitae, but because he cares for his bestfriend like a brother and a woman he love and supposedly trust is scheming to broke said friend's heart so cruelly with the brother-in-law that he trusted. I wish Kyunghoon would make that woman deeply regretted it and actually apologize without all this gaslighting bullshit.
And as for Haejoon, oh how much I would love to see him being miserable for as long as possible. I wish he would beg on his knee day and night for Jitae. I wish it would take him YEARS to do everything it takes to take Jitae's heart back and to see all of his effort and advance fails miserably because Jitae will never forgive him so easily. I wish he would see Jitae being happy with someone else first, while keep pursuing him to no avail, and to witness Jitae someday look at Haejoon with no more feelings in his eyes towards him. No resentment, no love, no grudge, because Haejoon DOES NOT MATTER to Jitae anymore.
Ugh if only! God I can't believe all the wasted potential this manhwa has...
