Idk why but i really relate to this main character so much. I feel like he’s so I guess apart from his feelings, from his body. I feel like for children like us who were abused psychologically or physically we make personality’s for ourselves instead of what we actually are because or at least for me the real self is more despicable, more ugly than what normal society can take. As we get older these personality’s become us, and we feel utterly disconnected from our emotions and life. It’s kinda like playing doll house but having no idea you’re playing it. I struggle day to day to think about me physically being here instead of actually realizing I’m alive and things are happening to me.. not the doll. I see it a lot in this character because he has a forgetful memory (yes I know he has tumors) but I believe it’s because of how disconnected he is from himself and the realization that he is going to die forces him to become the doll. His true self is just someone who wants to run away, who needs comfort, and someone is obviously internalized. I find it really interesting as it is explored and I fear many will see it as bad writing from the author but you have to live it to understand it I guess.
Please for the love of god stop uploading this, someone delete this shit pls

I apologize for the thick ass docs (4 volumes per doc) and inconsistencies cus mtl is mtl after all
the novel itself isn’t that bad, cheonma’s actions are kinda questionable at times, but I feel like we should expect it from a man as powerful and unapologetically arrogant as him. I actually do like munpyeong a lot, cause there’s a certain charm to a character being true to their limits, basically being like a pitiful bug squashed between a rock and a hard place. Hes not anyone or anything remarkable and everyone knows, which is why cheonma falling in love with him is so unbelievable.
Though in the end, mc is basically leading cheonma by a leash by how whipped he is. You could probably find very few people as devoted to their spouse as him
Why is no one complimenting the wolves' outfits, hello??
god if this seme doesn't end up yearning im gonna DIE
In my opinion I believe that people who call kwon Ido an evil person are wrong. Ofcourse everything he has done is absolutely horrible but I don’t think he’s evil, instead I think he just did this because he felt utterly betrayed by Sejin. when we first meet him he did give off horrible vibes but we need to understand that in that corporate world he probably saw Sejin as some type of spy, as many corporate leaders learn to not trust anyone other than family. We can see this in the multiple times that sejin overhears something and Kwon asks him if he will betray him. Now until Kwon Ido learns of Sejin’s betrayal Kwon slowly warms up to him because he thinks he’s an honest and kind person and the end up falling in love with each other because they grow closer in the time they spent. Now the fall is when Kwon is betrayed, and personally I hateee when people are like this situation means nothing and that Kwon Ido shouldn’t have been mad, like bro if you got betrayed like that you would be mad. Now in the context Sejin knew that this is betrayal, he knew it was wrong, and I still believe that half of it was his fault because he still did it. But he was also pressured by family and that leaves it half not his fault because I don’t want to victim blame him but it is HIS FAULT, he had a play in that don’t be making characters you like saints and he is a saint but not in this situation. This is where Kwon Idos fear of betrayal really shines, as he completely isolates Sejin and gets his revenge in the things that happen. Now I think everything Kwon Ido does to this point is horrible and not warranted, but idk if it’s been confirmed but I don’t think Kwon wanted Sejin to be raped by his brother, I think he never even knew it happened until they eloped. Now the biggest evil Kwon Ido did was rape Sejin, I think before that (excluding the forced dick shoving) Kwons actions were somewhat fair, he isolated Sejin, didn’t talk to him, and ignored him which is horrible don’t get me wrong but I don’t believe this is evil, he is still a person and he felt utterly betrayed. Now think his “evilness” stems from his sexual abuse towards Sejin. Overall I just believe that before the rape and the sexual abuse towards Sejin, Kwon was understandable and not a “evil” person but a hurt person and I still believe that he was written REALLY REALLY well because he feels such immense guilt after what he did and him understanding Sejin. Idk if you disagree tell me why, just a reminder I am not excusing anything that Kwon did, I just believe we can’t choose sides here because both of these characters have done something wrong to each other.
“This manga is so sexist”, so what? Even as a woman I can understand different stories rooted in different problems… guys it’s not that hard to have a literature mindset when it comes to these topics. Not every story is going to be in the confines you want, it would make writing useless if anything. Personally I enjoy the topics being discussed and the edgy mindset if you don’t like that, then don’t read it no need to bash an author or story when ur literally reading on an illegal site lol.
Does anyone have the novel… in English and also like the chapter for this arc?
Does anyone have a free version of the novel in english
if anyone wanted to know... the artist helped with Fullmetal Alchemist LMAOO
Did Se Hwan actually like Yoon?? Like I read the story, and I'm pretty sure he was faking "liking" him for his brother, but the torture scene confused me
I understand some people may like where their relationship is going but like gang, we gotta admit this is kinda weird and somewhat forced. Like he knew him when he was young and I feel like any relationship between them is like daddy issues from one side and the other is a somewhat sympathy thing.
Guys, this isn’t supposed to be lovey dovey he won’t fall in love with the criminal. This is really all leading up to something that’s been foreshadowed since the beginning. What the ml wants is the mc to become as bad as him, so he’s pushing him to do things, most likely he’s gonna make him murder or do something worse and most likely the ending is gonna be the mc murdering the ml because that’s the only way “justice” can be served.
