Also I had to backtrack a bit cuz wdymm no one would have had a problem if he actually dated her as an adult?????? What
Also i love how you literally acknowledge why it's so wrong but then turn a blind eye on this manhwa. You literally make all the points yourself but somehow you still don't get it? Yes this specific case (Mc and unc) shouldn't be called grooming but pls at least acknowledge why we find it strange. Let's also think about how the Mc would feel if the unc who watched him grow suddenly made move. Yeah no.
but okerrr you do you. I'm not going to fight with you anymore.. you're an odd ball that's all I'm gonna say.
(It doesnt let me reply to that comment so here i am) Also I love how you literally acknowledge why it's so wrong in your previous comment about the kim soo Hyun case but chose to turn a blind eye to this manhwa. You literally said it yourself- "but there are photos of them when she was underage so thats different" you literally acknowledge the problem yourself yet? You're still not getting it it's the same shit. He knew the Mc when he was underage too!?!?!! What is there to miss? People would still have a problem with it what- look I'm sorry. I understand that you're trying to say that we shouldn't call this specific instance grooming and I acknowledge that. I don't think this is grooming. But at least try to acknowledge why we find it weird tho.. like imagine being the Mc and suddenly the unc who watched you grow up tries to pull a move on you LMFAO when the age gap in which they met as high-schooler and grown man.(and the Mc probably sees him as a brother or father figure) Yeah that sounds a bit uncomfortable doesn't it
anyway I got everything out of my system. I won't reply to you anymore.. I understand what you're trying to say and I hope you can acknowledge where I'm coming from too. Like you said we don't know where the story is going so let's just calm the fuck down :) I hope you have a good day.
Omg I just realized that it DID let me reply but it was just on page 2 LMFAO. Low key embarrassing.. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ but at least I edited it in a nicer way.
You keep bringing up K. Diddy, but I really don’t think that situation compares to this manhwa. KSH dated a literal child—whether he waited or not, it’s still disturbing, and I get what you saying
But in this story, there’s no sign Taegu was waiting for Yeongwoon to grow up so he could date him. From what we’ve seen so far, Taegun hasn’t shown any romantic interest in Yeongwoon—not even now that Yeongwoon is 26.
I get why you'd ask, ‘how can someone date someone they met as a child and watched grow up?’ But I see it differently. I see Taegun as someone who helped a helpless kid escape a toxic home and find stability. That’s the kind of connection I think the story is showing, and that’s the backstory I’m hoping for.
If later on Taegun does start developing feelings for the adult Yeongwoon, I personally don’t find that weird. You do, and that’s totally valid. But I don’t, and that’s okay too. We just have different perspectives.
I honestly didn’t expect this to turn into a whole long debate over fictional characters. Like, what am I even doing writing paragraphs about people who don’t exist? I’ve never gone this deep over something like this on Mangago before—but I just wanted to share why I personally don’t find it weird.
You’re absolutely free to have your opinion, and I’m free to have mine. So let’s just agree to disagree and leave it at that. Thanks for the convo—have a nice day!
That ahjushi is a fucking groomer and a weirdo.
