Jo is not really a red flag, the characters are quite realistically written, Jo really likes Ian and in the moment he of course chose to help the person he liked over a strange guy who attacked him. Idk why y'all think his reaction was so bad, as Ian just said in the preview of S3, he isn't used to high stake situations like those.
This isn't really comparable with TJ's situation, him and Ian initially became gangsters to find a way out of poverty, then TJ wanted to go up the hierarchy to protect both himself and Ian, then at some point he became more into being a gangster than anything else, hell, he was even constantly putting Ian and himself in danger because of money and power, and because he wanted those two things Ian no longer became a priority, he became his hidden secret. Ian wanted someone who wouldn't hide him and who would genuinely like him so he could have a healthier relationship. TJ can't give him that stability and won't make Ian a top priority.
Jo remains to be explored, so far we've seen that he's serious about Ian and keeps trying to prove himself to him, this time he tried in a really.messed up way but then again he's a regulat civillian, so he's not used to this much violence.
So far, I'm hoping he's endgame because he's the healthier option, we still have to wait and see how Ian works through his insecurities and trust issues as well as how both his violent world and Ian's fun world will merge, there's bound to be some mess. Let's not forget abt Jo's cousin who has ties to Ian's past environment.
Also, to add to the paragraphs written by the girls saying chase isn't a bad guy.
It was mentioned in the novel that unlike other dominant alphas dude has more empathy.
Remember that all are said to be sociopathic leaning, grayson (chase's older brother) is especially lacking in empathy.
Chase is empathetic and he doesn't release his pheromones with others. So they build up and he becomes a mess.
He's also a major introvert, he enjoys his alone time and is very picky as a person.
Mind you, dom alphas get targeted by ppl in this universe and he doesn't like being in crowds anyway.
He's also very much depressive and lonely (and he can be sui c dal).
Hope this paragraph helps y'all understandhis character a little better now!
4 years later GAGGED TF OUTTA ME GURL.
I haven't been gagged like this in years.
YEARS!
GIMME the next chapter OMG
They're both lovely and in their own right to feel what they're feeling.
They both care for the other and are doing their best. I'm curious to see where this angsty story will go.
No need to hate on either one of them, they're really well written and the story is so well paced.
We don't always have to pick a side in a story, sometimes both individuals aren't bad.
I wonder how they'll work out this whole situation...
I bet the ML is gonna run to military service as an escape and probably completely go off grid even after getting discharged.
Close to finishing the novel and honestly it's SO GOOD!!!!
It's dark, but it's so so entertaining. The plot twists and the DRAMA OOF. This is a really good one ngl.
Again, it's dark af. But damn is it good.
Why is he even the ML?
Everything was fine up untik he first shot him
That demon is us manifesting in the manhwa
Let the groveling begiiiin
He's not right in the head.
I say they should be over, he's so damn toxic.
Ilhoo is fine as hell, idk why the authot is choosing to make him waste his time on this guy.
Y'all need to stop going off on Garam.
Understand you can't FORCE a partner to do something, that's when it becomes toxic.
Sure, it's fine to communicate a need but let the person do it at their own pace, trauma is no joke.
Both are valid for having those insecurities
With his gaslighting ass
Denial is a river in Egypt.
He should've just left him cause why you calling him dirty for?
Either date him or respect his boundaries as fwb. Even while dating, this behavior is unacceptable. Mf breaking glasses n shi.
Kyuho is weird for sticking around
Good for them now where's Dohyeok and Siwoo.
Idc abt main couple girl I want ENTERTAINMENT. God bless them. I want MESS and DRAMA
I was abt to call manhwa police on multiple occasions cause wtf is wrong with chaheon?
His partner is literally so patient with him, Ilhoo literally concedes most of the time in their relationship and he lets him walk all over him and overstep his boundaries.
Chaheon is a textbook narcissist, Ilhoo, girl, just RUN.
Some of y'all forget that he's a diagnosed sociopath, like legit.
This story is messed up, they're both mentally "special" and this is all too toxic.
Either stay for that or go.
I think the darkest chapter in their relationship is near. Buckle up
The author hates us so bad.
Girly pops couldn't let Joohyuk keep their ship, can't defend him no more.
It's gotta be Dochan all the way. Damn, he fumbled the bag beyond saving.
The author is ruining the story by making what was a good relationship a toxic one.
Right aftef he R'ed his partner everything started going downhill. They had such a healthy relationship, all this for silly drama.
Author is gonna make a doc tell us that he can no longer have kids and so Euihyun won't be able to get rid of the kid no more.
I'll laugh if I'm right
Am I the only one who likes the side couple? They keep on growing on me too. They're weirdos, definitely but they're a lot of fun and interesting.
