I always read the short ones because I know even if I don’t like it I’ll be able to get through it. I knew this one was gna be really fucked up so I can’t blame anyone but myself for making me read this BUT I always wonder what provokes authors to write stuff like this. Like where’s the appeal? Same with the artists like why would you volunteer yourself to draw scenes like this? No judgement just curiosity
well its high time to admit that most of the writers/artists who make this have a rape kink, others just ride on the trend to make money. either way, there are people who enjoy it, probably coz they themselves have a rape kink. also taking this opportunity to say that having a rape kink irl DOES NOT mean one wants to get raped. its more like the idea of being subdued and forced etc etc, almost in line with bdsm, only difference is in bdsm you are submissive by nature but if u have a rape kink u like to be forced to submission. im not in anyway glorifying SA, abuse or anything like that, just realized this notion while a reading a book and wanted to answer ur curiosity. (they are so many wokes/snowflakes in this comment section: dont come at me)
Thanks for that info. As a writer myself, I could t imagine writing anything like this without the victim getting their own brand of justice, but your explanation makes a lot of sense
I’m confused is this the mcs backstory or an au or what
Where did this come from
Ugh if jaekyung said no it would’ve done so much for his character development
Thia chaoter aounds like it should be the last
I feel foreshadowing and i DO NOT want to know whats next
I might be the only one who wants the mc to end up with the one that knows about his situation (forgot all their names)
Idk why but for this one I just can’t see him with all of them
So did he run away at the end or not? I cant tell. The whole time I was praying that he would leave Jeongyeom and he would be free. I was hoping they’d show the seme grieving and regretting his actions
Dong-im isn't the one who's trapped, it's actually Jeongyeom (the older brother). The younger brother is just a brainy, calculative, manipulative boy
His every action is calculated, like how he fucked another man to show Jeongyeom that he will never be his. And how he marked a servant to make Jeongyeom angry. From the moment Dong-im was born, Jeongyeom became trapped to that life of misery
Wait this makes sense as well
It’s just extremely toxic so I feel like both parties could be the manipulator
A boy who wants to bath in another's admiration. However let's remember he's still a boy.
Jeongyeom on the other hand is obsessed as fuck and a murderer. He's a few years older and an adult later so he should know better. He didn't need to be brainless and act before thinking every time. And I know he's traumatised, but in this story both are at fault and we shouldn't point "x is guilty of everything".
Rather it's Jeongyeom who wants to bathe in another's admiration because he's the one who had nothing. While Dongmi had everything. Jeongyeom never became an "adult" as he was just an empty shell wanting to be filled by Dongmi's existence, hence he was manipulated easily. Dongmi is his god, his everything.
I don't see jealousy of things in Jeongyeom. Ofc it would be logical but I didn't see it here. Jeongyeom doesn't care about being recognised or about other ppl at all. He wanted to just live almost alone in a big house with Dongim and not be interrupted.
I agree though, Jeongyeom's emotional growth had stopped due to traumatic experiences and Dongim was his only light, making him addicted to his younger brother.
You need to step back and control your words. You said a lot of things that did not even happen.
Try to read the Literary Analysis at the end of Chapter 5 (fan translation) to understand the story better
