brain rot explanation about the story so far

Some of y’all really be struggling out here, so let me break it down for you. Incheol (our MC) works for Lee Myeongsun, one of the big mamas of their political party. He was her number one boy toy and booted out her previous fav (Cha Kwonsu) and got his ass banished to the shadow realm (district 2).

Lee Myeongsun’s got big plans to urbanize shit, which just means she’s making district 2 great again by tearing down old buildings to make bigger, better, more beautiful buildings. But she can’t just bust into people’s homes and be like ‘this is mine now’ and start tearing stuff down, she’s gotta mansplain manipulate or malewife her way into getting that property first, which is why she needs this god damn gym that gets mentioned 200 times a chapter.

Cha Kwonsu was down in District 2 circlejerking for two years, when suddenly Myeongsun switches up on her boys and swaps him with Incheol. This sucks for Incheol because he’s not stupid, and he knows (a) his big mama’s switching up on him (b) Kwonsu and his big mama indirectly are delaying the shit he worked on (like the real estate bill) for other stuff (c) Kwonsu’s gang is icing out Incheol’s faction within the party so he’s not getting the tea when it comes to important meetings and other political bullshit. Kwonsu is also rage baiting Incheol and trying to be mysterious and aura farm by being like ‘yooo you don’t even know about the thing bro’ and when Incheol like ‘what’s the thing’ Kwonsu says ‘aight bet I’m out’ and disappears.

This could be for a lot of different reasons. It’s implied that Incheol was lowkey doing a lot of Myeongsun’s dirty work, so it could be interpreted that he’s a liability now. Maybe Myeongsun and Kwonsu are colluding and handing him an impossible project, so that when he inevitably ‘fails’ they have a legitimate reason to bury him. Or it could be for reasons that haven’t been explained yet. It’s literally been only 17 chapters bro let the author cook

Anyway, apparently Pyeonghwa (out ML) has maxed out his mental strength stats so he is immune to the mansplaining and manipulating (or maybe all those hits to the head killed all his braincells and there’s nothing left in there to mansplain or manipulate). The community won’t pressure him into giving up his gym because they make a lot of money (and have a lot of fun) on/with the “wrestling” matches. All that’s left for Ju “heterosexual but only has sex when his big mama tells him to” Incheol to do is malewife, but unfortunately for us that ass has yet to be cracked (someone get the twinks from jinx or limited run to teach Incheol a little something about selling out).
