I like my yaoi men whipped to high hell, but this is like… gross… like it’s genuinely creepy and unsettling, immature, selfish, and lowkey makes me think Inseo’s a bad person. Trying to cut him off from all human contact, literally abandoning all his responsibilities and aspirations just to force constant interaction. The only reason why this relationship is still going when any normal person would’ve shut this nonsense down immediately is because of how whipped Hyeok also is. Inseo is LITERALLY a gaslighting manipulator and that’s… not hot lmao
Ugh. It sucks when neither of the ML options are appealing. How am I gonna get through this when they’re both annoying (and the mc isn’t all that either)
Thank god they made the obvious choice endgame. I felt like I was going to have an aneurysm over the triangle because Heeseop was SO obviously the perfect choice. Genuinely kind, sexy af, respectful, actually WAY more mature and collected than anyone gave him credit for, and was the only love interest who didn’t absolutely betray and hurt Jihan. Both of the other dudes were going through shit and whatever, but Jihan was WILLING to open his heart up! He tried! I actually love that he follows the rule of no second chances. Both dudes did something that made him want to give up on opening his heart to anyone forever, so to then start complaining when he sticks to his guns? Screw off! The tan dude (barely) was always so vindictive and rude and selfish and unromantic. Even if he did genuinely love Jihan, the way he showed it SUUUUCKED. The second he started flaunting his privilege over both Jihan and Heeseop had me practically clawing at the walls as someone who’s perpetually broke. It’s just such a gross and skeavy thing to do, to basically say someone’s an unworthy freak because they don’t have a car and can’t throw money whenever they hurt their lover. Like how about some emotional support? Some actual connection? Reassurance beyond “nooo choose me I like you so much you’re mine I own you I control you”. Anyways, finally the outcome of a love triangle doesn’t piss me off. Heeseop is perfect.
Heeseop is literally a stalker to call him a green flag is crazy
We know you’re jinyeong secret fan acc wrap it up. He wasn’t and hasnt been as “stalkerish” since like ch 7. Old ass excuse ya use to make it seem like heeseop is still worst
It's never been a secret. He's literally still stalks him and has a room full of photos.I never said he was the worse just don't act like a stalker can be a green flag
The “photos” on his wall are actually drawings he did himself. Is it a little weird? Yeah. But the “drawing your crush” trope has been a thing for decades. Also, they said you have a “secret jinyeong fan account” because you’re pointlessly hating on Heeseop for being weird in the beginning of the story, even though the writer purposely decided to make him one of if not the most mature, level headed, kind, and actually lovable characters in the whole story. Even if his character type was meant to be “the nerdy overbearing guy who follows mc around everywhere”, the author clearly shifted gears. He’s a green flag because the author obviously made him to be a green flag.
You can like him without trying to disregard how creepy he is the author didn't make him a green flag and he isn't one raise your standards
Ngl being completely uncompromising doesn’t make you right lmao. You’re straight up delusional if you STILL believe he hasn’t proven himself to be an absolutely great guy. But whatever, convincing unmoving people does nothing for me. Believe what you want even though you’re blatantly incorrect lol
You have low standards for men so you never need to call anyone delusional until you unpack your own mindset
Your standards are so ass bruh you liking jinyeong and thinking he’s the better option when he’s forced, manipulated and talk down jihan and heeseop. Fuck that guy
I don't care if you dislike jinyeong just don't act like heeseop is a green flag
He is? Lmao he made better improvements of himself to become a man worthy of jihan’s love tf did jinyeong bish ass do? Exactly.
How did he improve when he's still as obsessive and controlling jihan obviously has low self-esteem to endure him
Bro what are you talking about?? Controlling?? (If there’s anyone controlling it’s your king jinyeong which is why his ass got drop) LMAO are we reading the same story? istg you must be reading with your eyes closed and stuck up so far in your ass. Let’s say heeseop indeed has an obsessive with him, obviously if it really deranged wouldn't you think jihan would’ve dropped his ass like jinyeong? He likes that heeseop cares deeply about him and has never harm him or put him in a situation like the other two flops. Stay hating and reading a story you clearly don't like or care to understand.
Yeah check the raws hes follow jihan around because hes insecure and jealous Obviously im not gonna read anymore I already know the ending you're stupid if you can't see how deranged a stalker is jihan cares about him because he's never seen healthy relationships so he accepts terrible men into his life.
Lmao all this hating cos jihan didnt pick your bitch.
LMAOOOO JINYEONG SECRET FAN ACCOUNT YOU'RE SO REAL 4 THAT
Thats the only way to explain hating on a good guy like heeseop. They use poor ass excuses and when in reality he’s the best ml for jihan. He cares deeply about him, hasnt put him as a second option, or done harm to him the way the others have
comparing that to the other two, that is not really a red flag context-wise the only stalkerish thing he did was align their class schedules up lol but other than that, when jihan told him to go home, stay back, etc. heeseop listened. out of the other two, he wasnt as pushy and actually waited for jihan to come to him. the one thing that annoyed me the most is how the other two were persistent in the whole "i like you, im here, so why dont you want me back?" as opposed to heeseop going "i like you, but i will wait for you. follow your heart and dont force it" heeseop didnt push after learning MC's trauma and baggage when it came to relationships. if anything he chose to focus on the present.
YOOO I LOVE YOU??? Literally everyone’s reasoning for disliking heeseop is so forced and dumb but that’s exactly it. Heeseop was and still is patient when it comes to jihan even after learning about his past while the other two are constantly forcing themselves onto him to date.
the hate is so forced reading all the chapters in one go, you can see just how much heeseop was on jihan's mind lol and how much heeseop actually have an emotional bond with jihan throughout the story. the main theme was for jihan to be bold and brave to love loud and proud after what he had been through with the other two who lied and played in his face. heeseop was honest from the start to end. and more importantly, he even told his parents straight up he likes jihan without any reservations. like no wonder jihan picked him! he showed jihan there is nothing to be ashamed about loving him.
Let me just be clear. I still hate him and want him dead and the absolute blatant evil he did can never be forgiven. But the absolute unbridled extent of how whipped he is??? IMMACULATE. Like I knew he would absolutely slaughter the girl instantaneously the second she hurt him, I was even hoping he would cancel the mountain construction, but dude chopped off his finger and fed it to him just because he mentioned in passing he’d be willing to eat it (when it was most definitely just his attempt at getting under his skin)?!?! Like I’m convinced the “poison” doesn’t kill, it just makes the recipient go insane with infatuation. He’s literally mutilating himself and others for the sake of gaining the favor of someone who can probably never actually have any good will towards him, it’s just too damn good.
wait that part about the poison is actually lowkey a really good theory
Idc idc if I had to suffer through all that toxic mess, I should be allowed to bask in the gifts of him becoming the endlessly devoted whipped to high hell husband that he was always meant to be
“Well I… Wouldn’t exactly call it sexual assault…” Oh!!! So all that screaming and crying and verbally actively begging him not to, screaming no, begging him to stop, and saying you’d make him pay because he’s a bastard who isn’t listening to you… all of that must’ve just been hee hee ha ha jokes for funsies!!! :DDD
Stupid ass writing, dumb ass consistency, boring as same old tropes in most yaoi’s because some people straight up can’t write to save their lives. I appreciate them turning this love triangle into a straight line though. Unless the older brother is also prone to rape, then they can all fuck themselves lmao.
I’m not gonna lie… I might have cracked a SMALL… VERY SMALL… smile at the end of that last chapter it’s still fuck him till the cows come home, but the propaganda affected me just a smidge.
I swear this author makes the worst red flag then give us a reason to forgive them and it gets me everytime
Till the cows come home? Nice wording there
I genuinely don’t know where the authors going. “Yeah he’s a racist, rapist, abuser, assaulter, murderer, committed a genocide, and is the main cause of MC’s hatred and suffering… but he fuck and kiss and clean wound he inflicted so goood :DDDD” like am I really supposed to sit here and wait for mc to actually just… accept him? Maybe im crazy, but whenever it gets this far in these types of stories, i genuinely start hoping the mc will do something truly baller like straight up off himself (a successful attempt or not) out of nowhere just so that we can see the pos truly lose his mind. It would surely make the experience more enjoyable for me, that’s for sure.
Also, I know we’re technically getting somewhere with the sex poison because none of his wounds are healing, so that should be coming up at some point, but it’s not enough. I want SOLID emotional turmoil, and sometimes that’s only possible by a good ol’ sewer slide attempt :p
Omg tru .
Well you will kind of get that... mc eventually like screams in his face as he's dying trying to understand, and ML just does not get it. He's a psychopath, he's got no empathy. Imagine him as a serial killer who does not have to hide his true nature because he is the Emperor. But he still feels desire and 'love' on his terms.
Now MC is always sitting back letting things happen to him, no agency even when people are dying for him, he does the bare minimum. I found it quite infuriating. He doesn't realise the power he could hold over the freaking Emperor! A power he does eventually hold but not intentionally really. One more escape, another near death experience and then, the best we can hope for -no more rape or murder. Because you're right, there is no forgiving the ml or magic 'he's all good now and he had his reasons' no, he's just crazy and mc will have to manage that for the rest of their lives, using himself as leverage to get 'good behaviour' from Garon. It's a tragedy not a romance.
They’re so ridiculously cute and loving, and this has some of the best smut scenes I’ve seen plus one of the best ML’s, but god I wish the author would just… slow down lmao. I’ve been thinking this since the beginning, but it felt like their transition into falling in love and dating and becoming emotionally attached happened near instantaneously because we didn’t get to see like any of their relationship develop besides sex. Sometimes drama can be good for character development, and it feels like their characters didn’t really face any drama within their relationship. Now we have legit speed-running where they get married over 2 chapters, have sex for 3, and go through the entire process of pregnancy to having twins in 1 chapter with no showing of the actual pregnancy process. I get wanting a short little romance bl with a lot of smut and fluff, but this art and these characters are way too good, so I really really wish it felt like their relationship developed and grew from something with more substance. The family stuff is great and really well done, but their relationship would be that much better and more impactful if its foundation had a little more depth besides sexual compatibility and attraction.
Never seen a rapist ML get such severe lashings for being a rapist ML lmao. Props to the writer for deciding to go this route (i assume because of the harsh comments from the official readers) but I do wish the writing felt a little more developed. It sorta feels like the dialogue is just repeating over and over. I lowkey feel like dudes about to off himself or at least try to which would be crazyyyy.
