These are my SAME thoughts!! Like they think it wouldn't make sense for romance to happen if they had the assassination and the torture at the start... But having those after the governor started to feel something should make more sense? Why like I honestly thought that the season finale didn't make too much sense and now I know it's because they added the romance BEFORE. Tbh I think they messed up
I agree so much. How the seme acted after Yeonjo tried poisoning him felt so out of character. It was obvious he was falling in love w Yeonjo so how did he switch up that fast?! And he’ll hurt Yeonjo for a whole arc even!
I think he switched that much after the failed murder attempt because he genuinely believed Yeonjo started reciprocating his feelings. It was obvious through his flashbacks in the latest chapters. He kept remembering their tender moments and how Yeonjo was affectionate and even smiling while being with him. The governor feels betrayed. Not because of the killing attempt but because of Yeonjo's harsh words. Yeonjo told him he felt disgusted by him and he was only pretending to like their intimate moments. That's what triggered the governor's revenge behavior. He's full on blinded by his sadness. He's going to act in the most despicable way in S2 according to the author before starting his redemption in S3
Huge respect to the artist and author of this great BL that I love but what they've just explain doesn't make sense xD So their initial plan was to avoid all romance in S1 and make seme abuse Yeonjo really bad and then miraculously things will change and romance would spark in S2 between them. Then they realized it's a bad storyline so they now added romance in S1 + the failed murder attempt and they moved all the torture and abuse to S2?? For the love of god how does it make more sense? oO What will make Yeonjo suddenly forgive his abuser after that much suffering?
It seems their plan for S3 is a total redemption for the seme so I am even more confused on the events that will all of a sudden trigger such a change of heart for both of them? The governor is already in love with Yeonjo. Torturing him all S2 and regret it all S3 sounds unrealistic. Well, let's see how they'll cook. I liked the fact they're honest enough to admit they don't know much about writing a storyline so they're literally learning along the way! We're in for a bumpy ride that's for sure :DD
