Authors that portray sympathetic abusers and the readers who rationalize and emphasize with them are so damaging to the psyche of actual abused victims and potential victims who will have been told to make excuses for their abuser because various outlets of our society actually does in fact side with humanizing abusers over victims day in and day out.

there really is no such thing as knowing what is right and wrong, especially in these types of topics. And a different person can change them, that is if that person can wiggle their way into his heart. And people think differently and hence love is different for them, change is possible for him, but he just hasn't met the person to make him think so. Some people can't always hold in their built up frustration and they eventually let it out, gotta understand both sides. I doubt you have met every single person on this earth and listened to their love experience or life story, i was just speaking with an open mind.

merp, if you guys want to talk about a persons mental health, then this ain't the place, i am here speaking from the side that no one wants to try and understand, that's all. Well when you think about mental health is apart of everything BUT i don't want to start talking about this stuff as i know that i am still learning about this world, so please go easy on the comments.

you sound extremely young. love does NOT change people. Abusers do NOT change. you say theres no such thing as knowing right from wrong? you wouldnt mind some guy trying to force his feelings on you and then beating you up because you arent interested? would you sympathize with him as you are healing in the hospital? its because of people that think like you that people end up dead from abusers killing them.

Don’t take it to heart, we’re here to chill. I commented the way I did because I studied psychology and that’s how I analyze him and how he could be helped,; not of course to antagonize you. The story seems to be fluffy but it is heavy with abuse , bullying and violence so expect that readers will be sensitive. It may be a work of fiction but there are people who are going through the same thing.

It's fictional but depicts a situation that happens everyday and everywhere. We need to be careful how we see those kind of behaviours It starts like this then you just excuse criminals. If your bestfriend or sibling found themselves in an abusive relationship I sure hope you wouldnt tell them that their partners is going through some shit and that you're just trying to understand what nobody wants to try. Not everything makes sense with a mentally ill person. And all seriousness aside, if Jihyun wasn't hot, literally nobody would root for him.

Okay but it’s a different reaction to a fictional sense and reality. Of course if it’s the real world it’ll be a whole different thing, we don’t condone that kind of behavior.
But let’s step back and see the creative process in this work, it’s made to entertain. Not everyone will like it and that’s okay it’s not made to please everyone. Those behaviors are what the author wanted to portray for their characters.
If it was my best friend of course I wouldn’t want them to be an abusive relationship but it’s not my best friend it’s character in a manga in a fictional world. If it’s sensitive for some people that go thru that in real life then I suggest reading something more on the grounds of what they are comfortable with.
I just think it’s unfair to put such a heavy toll on characters behavior to the reality.
But each to their own of course.
Tbh both semes are actually alright. The black haired seme... you just have to understand him better. He is just going through shit and he clearly doesn't know the norms of how to treat others, and had a different upbringing. If he finds someone who understands him better than our mc, he would actually become a great man, take his older brother for example. Though we don't know much about him, just looking at the brotherly relationship tells us alot about him deep down. Well i love this manga as well as the characters, i just hope they all get their own happiness.
