I guess it was about time, the comments section was getting too peaceful... -sigh- I get not liking Hyesung, i feel myself that he's pretty hateful and am definitely "team Dojin", but there is a limit to the hatery that, if crossed, makes your opinion seem less like a legitimate thought/feeling you had and more like a parody. "imagine if he kicked his back"? What? I can't even take that or the few other posts by that anon below as their serious opinion when they're so over the top and extra about it. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
People made it seem like these chapters were much more sad/dark than they were. So far it's just been the same cute shit with some angst thrown in and Hyesung being sassy/spoiled. People were talking about how his stomach's gotten bigger, but it's only gotten "bloated" and he only just now couldn't fit his clothes. As Dojin pointed out, Hyesung has a small body, it wouldn't take much bloating to not be able to fit his clothing size. I guess we have another scene coming up with his father? I'm not really expecting that to be as bad as people were making it out to be now. I'm sure he'll not want to see him, but as this last chapter showed, Hyesung's trauma really seems centered around his mom leaving with his opinion on his dad just being "he's an asshole" as he didn't know what was going on back then. We'll see.
Moving on to a lighter topic, they were both pretty cute these 3 chapters, i feel like Hyesung has gotten a little character development and is finally showing a little sweetness to Dojin. It was interesting how he didn't turn the kiss in the bath into a huge deal when in the past he would've called Dojin a rapist (apparently the kiss was in Dojin's imagination?), the anxiety while Dojin was away was cute and so was the takoyaki cravings scene. Naturally Dojin's been acting as great as ever (just my opinion, please don't start up the whole "Dojin is a dick" argument as i don't and wont agree, i've seen everything you have and just WILL NOT agree. The story isn't dark enough for me to take everything in a way that would make Dojin out to be a dick, he's meant to be liked. Again, imo. Though tbh, i feel like that's obvious). Looks like, while he is still actively using and looking down on Dojin (he tells Dojin to get him something or do something and then dismisses him, is what i mean. It's like an order and then "okay, your use is up". That's what i think it looks like anyways, his face is very... Bitchy? During all of these times), he has some feelings growing. Hopefully Hyesung gets over the way he's acting and starts to actually build a relationship with Dojin aside from being the doted-on wife. Not that this is necessarily a bad thing, i've just seen too much negativity from Hyesung and want some more fluff now. Hyesung has been crazy like this since the beginning, albeit in a more subtle way previously, he was never SUBTLE, but he WAS more subtle than recently. His sass is overdone. Basically just waiting for a reason to like Hyesung while enjoying Dojin being cute and, sometimes, enjoying Hyesung's antics. When they aren't centered around him being hateful. Like the takoyaki cravings scene for example, that was a cute scene where i actually didn't mind Hyesung, he was cute.
If you think it's hot, fine, say that, but don't say they both wanted it or that consent was given... The scene is straightforward, Jinwoo didn't want it and Sangtae only asked if he could enter, everything before that was literally forced. He literally applied force, he held him down and got on top of him while ignoring his protests. This, AFTER literally kidnapping him. He suddenly took off to a secluded area to fuck Jinwoo, Jinwoo YELLS "where the hell're you taking me!" and says "wait!" while Sangtae is basically ripping his clothes off. We don't even know yet if Jinwoo gives him permission to enter. I'm seriously losing faith in humanity. I'm not joking, you people are making me jaded. I'm giving up on this comments section. You can think Sangtae is hot, even like him, while still admitting his faults.
Are there actually people trying to say that that wasn't forced? He literally kidnaps him, says "let's rub one out" while holding Jinwoo down, Jinwoo says "wait a minute!" and Sangtae strips and then blows/fingers him while he's still protesting before asking if he can enter. What? I'm not blowing that out of proportion either, you can look and see Jinwoo literally says "where the hell're you taking me!" and then Sangtae jumps him.
He literally just took him somewhere against his will to fuck him, he asked AFTER he'd started... Here is the page where Jinwoo says "where the hell're you taking me!" before Sangtae whisks him away, strips him while he yells what're you doing and blows/fingers him while he's still protesting: http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/man_of_a_virtue/uu/iur_chapter-18/pg-14/

-snort- AFTER he just stripped him while he was protesting and started to blow/finger him while he was STILL protesting... What? Please look at the scene again.





Or do you think he was hallucinating? He kept looking over at the mother and son with an odd look, you can tell he was making parallels, though he looked irritated on Bum's behalf too so that could've just been it. Personally i think he's stopped looking at Bum as a "mother" and has since started looking at him as a wife.
