This is my first time seeing this manga. The name is Asagiiro no WHAT? The random Portuguese got me surprised.
For those who don't know, "saudade" is the Portuguese word for the emotion of missing someone or something, something similar to nostalgia but not quite.
In chapter 1, Ren's internal monologue says Matsuri is the person she had been "dying to meet", so I guess that feeling was "saudade"

I'm not in the mood for porn without plot, and this one got on my nerves with the lack of communication. If this was real life I could be more patient, but how the hell are you trapped in a game simulation but decided to hide things and actively avoid your coworker for DAYS instead of trying to figure out how to leave?

Where did y'all see the romantic undertones in this because I don't remember that at all~... What's going on in these comments? If Taegu really is attracted to the kid like that it's gonna be weird indeed but y'all must have caught something I didn't.

People keep saying the author said he was a romantic interest but nowhere did they say that and ive always seen him more of him caring about Yeongwoon because of regret and guilt not because he wants him romantically but people are just pedos so ofc they will defend it and justify it if it was romantic but im still confused on why so many are actually trying to justify predatory behavior im not saying he is though but those pedos view him as a romantic interest for some gross reason and everytime I call them out they call me immature and just try to attack me like they need to be put on some fbi list because whats with their aggression?

NO YES I AGREE I dead said the same thing to someone else he def cares more because of his regret n guilt no where in the book did I wonder oh does he like yeongwoon yk. Idk y ppl r so weird n nasty they their saying oh he's weird or I don't like. him BC he's going after yeongwoon but it's like y'all r the one twisting the story yk n yes everyone is entitled to their own opinion n ppl can take different things from books but this take is just under acceptable.

No they didnt nowhere did they say that all they said was that he was an important character to the story how does that mean hes a romantic interest? Also IF he is why are so many of yall trying to defend it? Not the author if they do make him a romantic interest but the fact that IF he does have romantic feelings for the mc why would yall be defending those type of feelings?

In chapter 21.5 page 4. He is stated to be Seo In rival. I currently hope it is meant by the answer of the author as a simple rival and not romantic, although the person who posed that question meant rivalry in a romantic sense of why. On another note though, do you fucking read?? Who is this "yall" you speak of? On the answer above i clearly stated and i quote "not that i like it either tbh" did you just overlook that yeah? So no I'm not yall and you don't generalize, you are against those who want to see at least a romantic involvement from Taegu? Then go discuss to them instead of annoying random impartial people who don't like don't care

Thank you for the reference. And sorry if you took something I said as an offense, I was just really puzzled after looking at the comments because I didn't recall this.
Anyway, I read 21.5 and then I looked for the original korean sentence in the raws to be sure. The exact words are "Q. 태구씨는 서브공이 맞나요?", which means "Q. Is Taegu-ssi a 서브공?"
서브공 is the combination of the words "서브" (sub) and "주인공" (hero/main character), so it can be translated as "sub-lead", a character that is important to the story, second only to the main characters.
I did read that a 서브공 can mean a "second lead" in BL, and that meaning is VERY common, I would say the most common, but seems like that's not always necessarily the case. I hope that's not the case though because I think it would be very creepy indeed. The non-romantic meaning fits the author saying that he has a significant role in the story in the answer so I hope that's how it leans.

Yeah i don't deny i did assume since the line of topic was posed in that sense anyway from the questioner, as a romantic rival, that's how the translation goes. "Spreading disinformation" lmao you can calm your fiery ass down over a simple misinformation, and i'm glad he won't be a possible romantic interest. One can assumes also by possessive and "touchy" he got over Yeongwoon when he saw the hickeys you know. You on the other hand should stop being actually mad and aggressive as a first response when communicating, you talking about assuming? Listen hypocrite you are the first to assume i "shipped" the two of them without even reading what i said. Now you talking shit because i got your on your own stupid ass way of behaving is that right? Well if you can't help it stay mad then

Ahh no don't worry you didn't offend me. As "interpret my answer as directly meant to you as well" was for the reference to the chapter and page only. OK so the translation seems to be fair. I personally assumed on the romantical side of rivalry too but surely i hope it's not, and if it's gonna be, looking at Yeongwoon only in love with ml, it seems pretty much one sided anyway, and that's somewhat acceptable. I honestly don't like triangles of any sort and this one would be absolutely ruining the story, thankfully it's clearly not going that way. Someone said, considering the most recent chapter, that when Taegu got touchy when he saw the hickeys was because of some type of brotherly instinct, considering how he saw him all bruised up in the past, and honestly i'm starting to lean more on this predicament, we will see anyway and can't wait for Tuesday. Thank you for your research

Your line of wording started with "why are so many of YALL trying to defend it". You punkass bitch you don't even know what you write in an electronic piece. Pretty sure you don't even have the courage to reread your stupid message, of all the discussion that happened in this topic yours is the last useful, no purpose to what you said at all. Even a saint would get mad with your stupidity sybau

It's funny how all the comments agree he's a terrible detective. He can't even come up with a believable excuse for why he wants to get close to Ma Leo.
And why is he letting himself get spotted so easily when he's supposed to be investigating? In the first place, since he's undercover shouldn't a different detective follow Ma Leo to the hotel? Following him just everywhere ruins his cover.

I held on up to chapter 5 to see if this would be worth my time. There's just too many logic leaps in this, my suspension of disbelief can only last so long.
So the rich lady that hates her guts and her family just had to pick her out of all other women in the world, supposedly because she's easy to control (ignoring that actual surrogates exist). And not only that, but she expects the female lead to get pregnant by having raw sex with her son-in-law. She has enough influence on a hospital to kick the female lead's mother out, but can't arrange for an artificial insemination.
I can't even turn off my brain and just enjoy the smut because the sex scene is ridiculous. The female lead's proportions are absurd, she's super thin but her boobs are huge, each the size of her head. Her body is not supple, even when she's laying down her skin is not drawn like it's relaxing on the bed. Basically the artist drew a plastic sex doll.
Also we're supposed to believe the male lead is feeling horny for the first time in his entire life, because she's the one he's having sex with, even though he knows nothing about her besides the fact she accepted to get pregnant for money. Am I supposed to believe this is him falling in love?
There are other comics with similar premises and not so shitty writing.

I agree with everything but the surrogate part. Depending on the country, a surrogate can change their mind and keep the baby, despite having a contract. Also IVF wouldn't work if she's known for miscarriage (ML wife, if he'sactuallythe ML).
Now, they could've just done IVF to the FL, but im guessing they want to keep it low profile and didn't want ML wife's genes in the fetus.
I was hoping the comments about her seeing him and her mom fucking were metaphors or something. Nope, they were fucking indeed and she saw it indeed.
