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
IT ONLY TOOK 51 CHAPTERS BUT WE DID IT Y’ALL I’d like to thank my fellow degenerates for bearing down in the trenches with me, the comments section for keeping me sane, and the author who broiled that slow burn into a full course meal
That’s where the uke should have said
“alright, I’m paid, peace out yall! Sorry your body’s were too janky and unreliable to be of any use. Have fun being bitter cuz you didn’t get to fuck the boss”
Honestly with all of their cyclical arguments and relationship issues that they have I really wish they would go get couples counseling (and I wish it was more accessible/accepted in Japan) they’re not a healthy couple and honestly if they can’t sort things out and continue in these cycles it might be best for both if they broke up. It’s harsh but it’s also cruel to expect them to be able to “heal” each other when they both have very deep seated issues that they are both woefully unqualified to resolve
It’s honestly so masterful how the author has crafted the narrative because like the MC we’re falling for the ML despite his horrific crimes and secretly hoping for something more. I’m always thoroughly impressed when authors are able to change up the narrative encouraging the audience to ignore said atrocities in exchange for the love story
They find him, the brothers are reunited, and the real dads about to have a REAL talking to (I didn’t read past chapter 75)
I CAN’T WAIT I’M GUNNA READ THE RAWS THIS IS TOO STRESSFUL
I’ve never been so relieved to see a hiatus notice
