im crying over a fictional dog that i vaguely remember. ahhhhh
i love how im still so shocked at these details even after reading the novel. lol anyways, seeing benjamin cry like that broke my heart and i will now be going into a hole and sobbing until they are reunited
im still trying to figure out if id prefer to be ye eun or be the guys more.
DEFINITELY the boys
I'm 100% Ye Eun. The reason why so many people hate Ye Eun is because they're subs/switches and relate more to the guys. If people just viewed everything through the MC's lens, they wouldn't have an issue with her. (Just like how male toxic hentai protags don't get hated on for being pushy by men)
she wasn’t being pushy, she literally raped her ex dude
and? male toxic hentai protags don't get hated on for raping people by male readers either. it's fiction. yall are too soft and internalised misogynists.
so that doesn’t make it okay, the people that consume str8 hentai are usually men ( they make rape jokes, and victims blame irl whatchu expect but obviously that doesn’t mean it’s ok ) i’m not too soft, or have internalized misogyny for disliking a rapist. you prob couldn't be enjoying it if the mc was in her exes position screaming no u can still read it while criticizing toxic behaviors, and rape is a literal crime too
bottomline: it's fiction. i'd much rather kin a rapist and serial killer FL than a bland ass hoe. you're not reading it from the FL's perspective, you're reading it from a sub's perspective, which is why there are so many of you guys bitching about female leads instead of just seeing the world through her lens.
explain “ seeing the world from her lens “
reading it from the FL's perspective.
Dude wtf ? Other people dont hated it doesnt mean rape is ok. I dont know if you have a problem or you are the problem anymore. Its fiction but you call us misogynists because we hate raping in story ? No one said a thing about prasing raping if the character were a male or not, we just state that raping make she disturbing to us. Your word disguise as “gender equality”, but its not even close.
Oh please, seeing the world from eyes of an rapist will be a no for me. I dont even want to bring up the gender here. I know this is fiction so i dont really mind until high and mighty somebody use the word “mysogynist” and critizing someone else for disliking rape in FiCtiON
so what exactly is her perspective? to make her aggressively rape her ex. i don’t care if u like her, or the story, but the fact u don’t see the issue w that simply because it’s fictional and justify by saying there’s male rapist manhwas speaks for what kind of person you are.
me either, i don’t have issues w her liking it but the fact she doesn’t see an issue w that is terrifying, like that’s the result of desensitization from consuming shit like this on daily.
im happy that the author wasnt scared to add kisses in the story, bc in a lot of shounen ai manhwas they only kiss once or twice and sometimes dont even at all. i personally feel like it just really shows their feelings and that its a simple and sweet sentiment
i love this story so much. everything is so beautiful and well thought out, but i could never reread it. i sobbed like a new born baby reading it. i swear its worth it, but i was crying so hard that i couldn't breathe. like their love is so pure and beautiful and just thinking about it there are tears in my eyes. regardless of the tears i believe everyone should read it at least once! it's a story i will never forget and i promise you wont regret reading !!
nooooo i thought this was going to be yuri </3
yooo me tooo
i will never get over this manhwa, their relationship is just too pure and the characters are so funny, relatable and realistic. genuinely one of my all time favs and i come back at least every 2 weeks
OMG NOOOOOO I MEANT TO LIKE
wait i really liked that. i was expecting another story like ks where i was just constantly frustrated with the characters and pissed at the end but this made me cry and gave me an ending that satisfied everything in me. i really like the last phrase "theres no need to go back" because the main point they tried to drive was that they wanted to go back to how it was in hs. now that they see they can continue without going back and just grow together, that just made me so happy. ahhh i cant believe how much i cried though. genuinely i loved this so much and it was so beautifully written and illustrated
I put off this series for a long while from first discovery because the recommendation came with "If you like KS you'll love this" I couldn't continue KS after around first 30 or do pages with me not having the stomach to digest the shit going in KS. But this.... This story is a masterpiece that should not be compared with KS. It's like comparing cheese to dog poop ( please don't be offended if you like KS. I just think it's absolute crap, but I'll respect your decision to like it.) The theme is a bit disturbing, but overall, it's a great story with a valid storyline.
"your codename is dear benj*gunshot*"
