i liked the last part it was understandable why the top did that but not right obvi but i needed to see eric really explain his feelings or understand how the top felt when he said he wanted to break up obvi eric didnt want to break up but i wanted a chapter that would go back to what the bottom said which was the last one anyways this manga is superb

I feel like the moment when woojin said sorry, the scene didn't feel like woojin really apologising for the past it was just taehwan consoling him about his actions in the past and how they made him feel, it's fine to have that but I just wanted the scene to not revolve around lessening woojin's guilt and more of confronting and apologising for what happened to taehwan in the past so they could get it over with their feelings all about it... For me it was a good scene just too much consoling woojin for the things done in their past, I needed it to be about taehwan not woojin

Just checking if the girl and her mum who came over is Vietnamese cause they portray Vietnamese people to be dark skin but their skin colour is the same as the mc not the discrimination and it's out in the countryside so yes understandable but they r as light as any other Korean the discrimination is crazy trust me dude people in Vietnam r pretty lightskin

Hm not everyone in the south is dark skinned as well though and if she was from like countryside in Vietnam did lots of work I agree yes dark skin but usually those who are are like elders who have worked that long In the sun to get to that skin tone so usually the shade would be lighter anyways I did a quick google search south Vietnamese people amd they r the same skin tone as the mc

Some are darker though because they live in a hotter area and more prone to be sunburnt and I mean the others in the manhwa who are elders and go out in the sun are pretty like just slightly tanned not as much as Vietnamese people who are much darker than them even though the elders have been in the sun longer?? It doesn't make sense because Vietnamese people genetically are usually not that dark and they usually get it from sun I got so many dislikes pointing this out it's not my fault Koreans like to portray south east Asians as much darker than them because they don't live in the city and live in tropical environments

When phrased that way then I definitely do agree-
It's definitely an issue especially w how blatantly obvious Koreans racism for SEA in gen TT..
Though I must say that the representation here seems to be more towards appreciation than discrimination especially since we went through a whole arc of how the neighborhood Korean kids appreciating and learning about the vietnamese culture
Sure it could've been done better, but personally I think in context w this manhwa (and the message they intend), I think it's a non issue and might actually be lil gateways for others to think similarly (don't be racist type shi-)

In short-
It's not wrong (especially in the case of this manhwa)
Long answer-
It totally depends on context. It's pretty chill for Koreans to view Viets to have darker skin tones especially if that's how they associate w them n Ofc it's awesome for that diversity to show in creative works, but intentions do matter. Most of the times it's positive intentions such as presented in this manhwa (n like I said previously, I do think it's a non issue in this case).
However, there are times when that is not the case (basically racism). Where sometimes people tend to associate certain people from certain places to be dirty and of lesser worth which tends to be tied back to their skin tones (or stereotypes in gen). This happens everywhere ofc, not specific to just Korea, though I did specify them as per context of this manhwa and the concerns of the op and gave my two cents based on my experiences (which is subjective)
Hell nah what the hell I would break up with the main leads ass literally he deserves nothing but a piece of shit cause he just did that for 10 years and never fully declared him as partners ain't no way the mc is warrior cause ain't no way main lead DOES NOT deserve the mc.. sorry I'm so mad the main lead got everything??? And the mc?? Left with a situationship for 10 years??
