Just finished it. HOLY shit sungkyun is fucked up.
In a way though Cheong rim’s plan to snap him out of psychosis did work lol
NO NC YOU'RE SO RIGHT
Seems like I JUST missed the window to be able to yap about each chapter with everyone. Currently on s2 ch43. The sheer insanity of these two... usually I feel really bad for the meek uke (and I'm not excusing the violence inflicted on him) but the way these two characters are.... its almost turned into a soap opera for me. Good god they're both deranged perfectly for each other. I think it helps that at almost every turn sungkyun has actively reveled in every beating. Not once has he genuinely thought to escape (up to the point I'm reading anyway), its miscommunication between them in the most psychopathic way possible. These two are... just wow.
I think this is one of the better depictions of a full on psychological breakdown (in the uke's case) that I've seen in these BL stories. Both of them are in extreme psychosis just from different things, sungkyun's born from losing his parents + doing drugs and cheong-rim's from living in red mansion alone as a child, and his brothers consistently showing him he can't have anyone in his corner.
Good god, good god, good god.
9/10 I know I'm gonna wish it was longer.
