“I kno we’ve been safe cuz we’re in a secluded area and we’ve worked hard keeping a low profile BUT LET’S JUST GO BACK TO THE BELLY OF THE BEAST AND NULL ANS VOID EVERYTHING” fucking IDIOTS
WHAT IN THE GAY HELL IS HAPPENING WITH THESE UPLOADS? Reading the raws would make more sense than this nonsense. Gunna drop the manhwa for a few months until we get actual GOOD translations again
I’m VERY confused. Like y’all’s sex life has always been respectful but now it’s rage filled hate sex even tho they both want the same thing and they both kno how to have sex that’s enjoyable for both parties. Do we really need a conflict especially now that they’re literally both on the same page more so now than ever before??
Did NOT expect that to be the ending. I have very conflicting feelings def agree with y’all that it felt rushed at the eye stuff came out of nowhere. Damn. I’m gunna REALLY miss this series
I think a lot of folks are being too harsh on Seonwoo. These kinds of behaviors can’t just be turned off, this is how he’s survived and even then he’s been living in a fight or flight mode his whole life. Even trying your best with the addition of a supportive partner can’t fix this. He needs professional mental health help in order to make sustainable transformative change
Expecting him to do that on his own given his history and lack of mental health tools and resources is not only ignorant, but downright cruel. Y’all need to understand that he grew up with NO ONE it’s literally always been him against the world and the people who he did let in betrayed him. That’s trauma you can’t just heal with willpower and a good social circle. He needs help. He deserves help. And I pray that Taesoo sees this and stays with him through all of this
For those of y’all hating on Seonwoo I urge you to reflect on this post and try to start showing compassion to Seonwoo, even if you don’t like him. EVERYONE deserves healing
Was frowning SO HARD between chapters
69 and 70 that I’m gunna be seeking damages
from the author for Botox money lol
*re-reads ch 69 to prepare for new season*
WELL THAT WAS FUCKING TRAUMATIC
*reads chapter 70*
AND SOMEHOW THAT WAS EVEN WORSE
I want to read to y’all the different things that Chang-il says/thinks before they have sex: “since when did it matter what I want, I’ve never wanted it [sex]” “my ass is still sore, but I feel like I have to pay him back somehow”
Yona: “I was trying so hard to behave myself, I don’t want to treat you like those creeps”
Yona understood that by making advances he was placing himself in that same bracket as the two men who raped him for months (obviously he’s MILES better but he’s admits himself that he’s in the same bracket) a more appropriate response would have looked like “believe me, I want to be with you too but after everything you’ve been through it’s more important than ever for me to support you without being intimate and reaffirm your worth to help you understand that your value is so much more than what you can offer sexually”
I very much recognize that Yona is young, most likely doesn’t have the maturity or experience challenging himself to reframe like this. But I stop giving him a pass because he HIMSELF recognized that if he had sex with him then and there, it would lump him into that same category with the others. Because of that, I think we have every right to call him out for that
Also, I’m not dumb, I kno this is a fictional story and that I don’t have to read toxic BLs if I don’t want to and by continuing to read it’s my own doing for consuming media that’s disturbing to me. BUT ALSO, that doesn’t mean that I suddenly dont have right to criticize these characters. Just wanted to put that out before yall jump down my throat with the same comebacks you throw at everyone who doesn’t just gleefully accept the toxicity of this manhwa with open arms
I feel so bad for Chang-il cuz he finally gets saved from the men who have been repeatedly raping him only to have Yona force himself on him. Is Yona better than the other 2? YES. But the fact that he doesn’t understand that Chang-il just went thru this horrific chapter in his life and needs a sex break so he can just human regularly again makes Yona only a couple steps better than the men he saved Chang-il from. Does it come from a place of malice? I don’t think so cuz Yona is still pretty much a kid and probably doesn’t understand the harm he’s doing by continuing to want to have sex with Chang-il, but that still doesn’t make what he’s doing to Chang-il any better
I’m very much Team Chang-il moves across the world, changes his identity, and lives alone and single for a few years while being in very intensive therapy and possible trauma recovery outpatient programs
I about had a HEART ATTACK when I saw the (The End) tag on this chapter ☠
Controversial take: YES the seme took out the whole uke’s family and that is horrible and horrific BUT ALSO he did that under government orders. I think a lot of yall are forgetting how intense these fuedal times and how defying orders like this could not only put you or job in danger, but most likely you family too
Does that excuse his actions? Absolutely not. Does the uke still have valid cause for wanting revenge? Absolutely. But at the end of the day it’s much of a systemic issue. I don’t think he would have maliciously taken out his family if he hadn’t been ordered to do that
So this manhwa can go either of two ways:
1) the uke finally understands everything that I expressed above, realized it is much of a systemic government level problem that even if he kills the seme, literally won’t change anything. Accepting this is the only way he’s going to be able to drop his revenge and start an actual relationship
2) he kills the seme, which you kno, GOOD FOR HER! This is your story, your life, you do what feels best for ya
Either outcomes are valid. I think we all need to just take a step back and look at this from a historical point of view in terms of power dynamics. This is really not a good vs evil, black & white type of problem. It’s much MUCH bigger than that and it’s doing the characters a disservice by boiling them down into cookie cutter caricatures
“I miss the lightsabers! Why is it uncensored???”
Say you fetishize yaoi without saying you fetishize yaoi
Is it bad that every week when I get the notification for this manhwa I’m praying the chapter has the tag THE END?
Thought it seemed cute so I gave it a shot, learned he was 25 and the seme was in college which was already pushing it cuz if ur 25 you shouldn’t be with people under 20 imo THEN I find out that NO he’s in HIGH SCHOOL so I dropped it came to the comments to find out that HE IS 16
WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK Y’ALL????
I am SO glad the the bulk of us in the comments section are like ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK NOT
And for the few who think it’s ok here ya go
- 16 is still a CHILD
- An adult having sex with them is WRONG
- Doesn't matter if it was “ok” in the past
- It was child ab*se then and it’s child ab*se now
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk
I really hope that Yuki goes to travel with him during his 2 year trip he’s planning on eventually taking. I think it would be a really good growing experience to be able to travel and I don’t want them separated for 2 years I’m legit stressed about this predicament
Honestly it’s on us for believing that Ceasar would ever get character development. He out here making Jaekyung look like Taesung from Cherry Blossoms ☠
30 chapters and literally NO progression for the main couple other than that last twist. I’m guessing that storyline is going to become the main one and they’re not gunna actually get together until Season 3
Is this manhwa complete and total trash? YES.
Is it still my guilty pleasure? YES.
For those of y’all complaining, it’s 50+ chapter in, you kno the drill so either drop it or stfu
He should have killed him, super over that villain being in this story. You just kno he’s gunna come back and kidnap their baby or some bullshit later on
