What a gorgeous mess.

Months later, I check the new chapters and Jaekyung is STILL a flavorless piece of shit (shocker), the author still throws in unnecessary sex scenes to make up for how awful the story is, there are new ridiculous problems being introduced (sleepwalking, "has to be watched" seriously??..) to force proximity so we get to see more of Kim Dan being a pushover and Jaekyung taking advantage of him... I really love the artstyle and the authors other works so I keep coming back to this hoping it gets better, I thought this was meant to be his "redemption arc"??? Has anyone else forgot what the story is even about at this point ??

If Jaekyung didn't have the personality of a wet rag and if he actually expressed his feelings but kept his broody personality, I feel like this would have been significantly more enjoyable and the toxic aspects more endurable to read. It's partly why I think Low Tide In Twilight was received so much better (still not great) with a similar plotline. Anyway, if you're wondering if this has gotten any better, it hasn't. Give it six months lmaoo

    I feel the exact same. I took a break off mangago and was going through my list of update and Jinx is the most disappointing of all

    Me too!! I had such high hopes because I adored her other work BJ Alex. I know she can pull off a character redemption which is one of the only reasons I check back on this every few months, but it feels like it’s being dragged on.There’s still hoping

    I agree with you although I don’t like Low Tide in Twilight either. I read it for a long time & there was some good development, but it took like 50 chapters for the sex scenes to actually be somewhat consensual, & I can’t get over the beginning when he literally rapes him within 5 minutes of meeting him

    Yeah same and I agree. BJ Alex was such a masterpiece. I won't lose complete faith because of BJ Alex… let's see where she takes us

    Yeah totally disgusting. I get that the ML almost died to save him but why did I feel like he character redemption was still underwhelming?

    Yes lol like it took WAY too long for him to become a somewhat decent human being at best.
