I honestly love this webtoon so much!! ugh, imma have a toothache and stomach ache with how sweet and funny this is. I absolutely adore all the character's so much. jihan and doyun are so adorable and I love how both of them don't take anybody's shit, like situation w/ jungwoo. also!! I obvsly hope seohun and geonwoo end up together, or at least get proper closure out of the whole ordeal. the two of them obviously really care about each other sm :'))
look, I don't have much expectations for anything to from renta but I always find myself reading the stories when I come by them on mangago. now, I've read the other work by this author which I do like but the only redeeming quality about this story, is the artstyle tbh. and the fact we get to see the good ol' deliquent! uke x pretty boy! seme. I don't mind throwing my morality aside and reading dubcon/noncon but only when we get proper character development or even at bare minimum, the assailant being apologetic for their actions. but this never happens with asuka, who actually seems to think his actions are justified bc of what ryou did to him/bc he "loves ryou". like?? what gets to me even more is the fact ryou seems to somehow fall in love w asuka despite his shit treatment, bc the dicking was good??? bruh, make it make sense. honestly, the plot was lacklustre and the characters had no substance, the only likeable trait abt both of them is the fact they're attractive.
tldr; not something that is my typical cup of tea so ig you could say I'm somewhat biased. but the only good aspect of the manga is the artstyle imo.
oof, as someone who grew up/was born in a western country coming from Asian heritage, I can definitely relate. I can't speak my second language that well so I've always somewhat distanced myself from people of the same nationality, since you do end up feeling like the odd one out, since you can't fully understand/speak fluently. even though, I know my language fairly well and can understand most things, I always found myself insecure with speaking to people around my age/outside of family since I knew I wasn't as fluent. honestly, it rly be the kids who come from abroad and are always conversing in your second language, that intimidate the shit outta you. bc it always feels like they're talking smack.
luckily, I was never in a situation where I was bullied like taehee. but damn, this chapter was relatable. it was nice to see the author cover a relatable and not as common topic.
same for me!!! Depsite being able to speak russian all my life I feel awkward speaking in Russian to friends bc most of the time they're more fluent than me and same with parents and grandparents. I partially blame this on my schools bc J was always told off for speaking russian and was even put in an ESL program even though my English was fluent just because I spoke Russian ┗( T﹏T )┛
yesss, the fking ESL program!! I remember using the term for armpit in my language instead of "armpit", since I would get the languages mixed up at times when I was kid, and they put me in ESL! thank god they took me out of the program after the realised how fluent my English is. the only good thing that came out of it was that I got ezpz awards and my teacher was nice ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
Haha I was actually stuck in ESL for like a year and my teachers knew my English was good too?? like they made me go around and help the other ESL students with their work. At least I got extra time for all my important exams for the rest of the time I was in that school because of that which made them less stressful because I knew I had the extra time even if I didnt need it
thank fucking god we didn't beat around the bush and param ACTUALLY REMEMBERED what happened btwn him and mr. mfing han. I was gonna be so frustrated if we had to go around in circles w/ param still crushing on his toxic ass.
ANYWAY, hwi really fucking said "you need me as your man"!! I deadass squealed, we've been stanning hwi from day one. wbk he's the superior choice. ngl, actually sad that the chapter felt so short. we were just getting to the good stuff bruh. hwi and param are actually so hot, mmm ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
am I a basic bitch for just hoping suha and jiwoon have a happy n' healthy wholesome relationship, without any toxic possessiveness and bs? I'm sick and tired of seeing mc's with sexual trauma move onto a relationship w/ the main male lead, who is also toxic but his possessiveness is justified bc he ~loves and cares for the mc~. so far, I'm tryna' have hope that jiwoon is just insecure and won't be toxic w/ his possessiveness. please, I just want jiwoon to treat suha right and let the man, have a wholesome relationship that doesn't revolve around being physical.
n e way, I feel like we're obvsly gonna have a lot of complications due to suha's past and I fking hope that jiwoon doesn't use suha's past against him. otherwise, imma be pissed.









damn, I'm up to date now ahhhhh. man, yihyeon's such a fking snake. he needs to not get in the way of our homebois. also!! I'm glad hojun and seunghyun were able to address the misunderstanding, I hope they also talk things out abt yiheyon. it's good that they got the sex classes mess out of the way first, since yiheyon prolly would've used that against seunghyun if hojun hadn't known the truth.
AHH I MEANT TO LIKE SORRY
