Really annoyed that Luxmanga or whatever had the audacity to claim ownership of translating this webtoon when it’s being disseminated illegally and their translations SUCKED compared to the individual who knew Korean and just happened to translate ch 133 because they didn’t know the absolute bs fake rule that one can “claim” an illegally distributed webtoon when, again, the only person that can actually claim this is the creator and their publisher which we know isn’t luxmanga bc that shit english translation is def not official lol
Unpopular opinion: making Kang’s romantic interest be his dead sister’s doppelgänger is low key incest vibes.
╥﹏╥
I agree, but at least Kang doesn't actually see her as a sister-lookalike (or at least never mentions it)
this is such a reach they dont look alike or act alike at all. this has to be based off the convo of the dumbass friends trying to figure out who she looked like cus they dont share similarities at all.
This is why it's unpopular bbgirl, se jin doesn rly look like the sis,
It’s mentioned in the beginning though.
Like y ╥﹏╥ I wouldn’t have thought it if it wasn’t mentioned in the story
they just said that there's a resemblance. That doesn't mean that Seijin is the sister's doppelganger or something
Wow that was the worst story ever. Does the author hate bottoms? women? themselves? Who the fuck commits to writing and illustrating 50+ chapters of extreme physical/verbal/emotional abuse, violent rape, imprisonment, blackmailing, etc., to just victim blame and gaslight their own protagonist (and audience) into thinking that your abuser will stop abusing you if you love them enough?
PSA: that line of thinking will just get you killed (either by your abuser’s hands or your own (suicide))
Big fuck you to u author-nim

She’s gonna either be so crushed when she finds out they’re brothers or she’s gonna be so deep in the apathy of depression that she wont even feel the capacity to give a fuck (at least not consciously)
Definitely gonna be the latter I think. Omg oof it’s gonna hurt
At ch 45 I almost put it down because I was so stressed lol. The number of times I found myself saying “holy f*cking sh*t” or “jesus CHRIST” or laughing bc it was just so dark and stressful ╥﹏╥
Honestly if nothing else, it made me think about the overwhelming sense of dread and defeat going against major corporations that, despite being blatantly corrupt, still have so much support from the public all the way to police, judicial, media and ultra wealthy collaborators (read: co-conspirators). But it gives me some faith when some people still don’t give up and eventually can fight and defeat corruption through exposing it on a larger scale. At our core, humans are not malicious…but they are fearful which makes them greedy. I thought Ha-im would be allowed to die at the end and the algorithm would be destroyed. Not sure if that would have prevented cloning for much longer.
A lot of great lines in this:
“Rapid growth without sanctions can lead to corruption” (paraphrased but totally agree)
“Death is also noble. Because there is an end, we must live more meaningfully and always do our best.”
Anyway, thanks for an incredible story. Why hasn’t anyone this been serialized live action yet?
As fucked up as this case of Stockholm Syndrome is, it’s refreshing to see the genders switched for the “possessive” “red flag” “psychopathic” lover trope
╮(￣▽￣)╭
Correction: “That would NOT be boring.”
