I want to clarify a few things since some readers got upset, maybe I triggered something, and I understand that. But to be clear: I’m not saying rape is acceptable or should be normalized in manhwa. That’s never what I meant.
Some BL stories explore dark, heavy themes not to glorify trauma but to show the raw side of emotions, survival, and pain. Fiction isn't always comfortable, but it still has the right to exist. If it’s not your taste, that’s okay, but please don’t attack the author or readers who connect with it.
You can give your opinion, but kindly. A lot of authors go through emotional struggles while creating these stories. They keep going because they love what they do and care about their readers. Respect matters.
If you find this story disturbing, maybe try Missing Love. It’s even darker but carries deep meaning and growth through trauma. Honestly, Killing Stalking is accepted by many despite being deeply disturbing, too. So why reject others that are just as heavy?
I’ve read tons of BL. Some I like, some I don’t. If something isn’t for me, I scroll. I don’t leave hate. Every story has its own readers. Not everything needs our judgment.
Not all BL is fluff, and that’s okay. If this isn’t for you, that’s fine. Just move on with kindness.
Let’s be honest, but let’s also be respectful (▰˘◡˘▰)
