You just said everything, your point is really good but (for me) any kind of rapists (in real life) deserves to die, I don’t think people who does those things is ever gonna chance or thinking of redemption. The action of violating someone against their will and enjoy nahhh ;-; is so miserable just to think about it…
I completely understand where you’re coming from. What you said is totally valid — the pain caused by such acts is irreparable, and it’s hard to believe someone capable of that could ever truly change. I think the story isn’t trying to redeem anyone, especially not the rapist, but to show just how deep trauma and revenge can twist people beyond repair.
It’s definitely not meant to make us sympathize with them — more like to disturb us and make us reflect on how unchecked pain can become something monstrous. The discomfort we feel reading it might actually be the point. But I totally get that for some, it’s just too much, and honestly, that’s okay too.
Yes, I totally agree with your words.
This is an incredibly disturbing and intense story that dives into complex themes of revenge, trauma, and the psychological impact of abuse. While the violence depicted is hard to digest and can be triggering, it’s important to remember that the author seems to be exploring these dark elements to provoke thought about the consequences of unchecked pain and manipulation.
It’s not a story meant to be enjoyed in the traditional sense, but rather one that challenges readers to reflect on the cycles of abuse and how they shape people. It’s essential to approach this manhwa with awareness, acknowledging the emotional depth it attempts to present, even though it’s wrapped in a very violent narrative.
The depiction of Juyeon, as someone who is both a victim and a perpetrator, raises uncomfortable questions about how power dynamics, beauty privilege, and past traumas influence human behavior. The focus on Juyeon’s attractiveness and his actions might be a tool used to emphasize the dissonance between how we perceive individuals based on external factors and the darkness they might harbor inside.
If you’re reading this, please keep in mind that it’s an exploration of human suffering and the lengths people can go to when consumed by revenge, but also a reflection of the importance of empathy, boundaries, and mental health. Everyone deserves healing, even the most broken of characters.
