Cannot believe how the author thinks in the beginning the level of dark was low!!?? The uke was being sold to 10 guys every night, had lost his mother, was depending on the bastard Pilwon financially
Honestly the ending sucked so badly, he lost all the bad memories but also the little good that happened recently. Also the theory that they both died in the water, which also sucks.
The only acceptable ending for me would be this was all a dream going in Dooshik's head in the first time he was drowning when picking clams, then he is saved by Jooha and they have a good life together.
This was just like those fanfics where the main character has a shitty life and keeps getting raped or kidnapped
Why does the uke never have the means and agency to resolve a situation ?. I know Seme is rich and uke is poor, but c'mon writers, this one is starting to be like pearl boy! That uke cannot have a minute of piece in his life, he'll have his parents dying, be raped several times, be in debt, have to work hard to have minimal living conditions... We know most yaoi can be an analogy to straight relationships and the uke is the woman and the Seme is the man, so the same as I hate the overuse plot device of the woman being saved by the man I hate this too
i agree with mostly everything you said, but limited run is definitely not going to be like pearl boy. the author specifically said that this story would have a happy ending and since this is presumably the last season i can’t imagine this story turning in that direction, but of course yeon-oh will continue to go through hardships that will eventually be solved by jaehyuk because he needs his redemption to earn back yeon-oh











Do you guys think Ian and Peter were in a physical/romantic relationship back then ?
In chapter 54 a flashback shows that Peter went to see Ian but it was raining and Ian got sick so Peter said he was "useless" and bailed, also they seemed really attached too, which would explain why Ian is still so fond of him.
If it's, it's even more fucked up, since Peter was the one who tortured Ian and then gets off on fucking him too, very sick, gaslighting shit.
Wait how yk he tortured ian
Well, he was the director of the underground formicarium health center, where they torture people, and he personally tortured a lot of people, though we know Ian got tortured by other people cause he doesn't recognize Peter later on.
He did not get directly tortured by Peter but still, he wouldn't have been tortured if it wasn't for Peter soo...
Idk if Ian in love with Peter or it's just a feeling that "yeah we're both living in same hell" bcs Ian just know that Peter is a runaway gray too. But for Peter, Ian is just a perfect hiding place, ofc until Victor killed him
True, you do have a pretty good point, next chapter they're going to show more of Ian in the underground so maybe we'll understand better
Things will get interesting if Van finds out that Ian and Peter was living under the same roof
Omg there will be drama
