So long is there some proper realization of feelings and the seme genuinely regrets how he fucked up and works to not be such a douche anymore, then this could have a decent end. Just have to wait and see.
Is for the seme to learn uke’s past and at least understand why he’s so reluctant and maybe even start working his kinks around/accounting for the uke’s trauma… not that I should expect anything from a guy who uses his position of workplace authority over the uke to coarse him into very unwanted sex.
For a split second I actually thought the uke was going to handle the driver and show he’s at least competent at his job when he tries. NOPE. Still just a pushover with no brain and definitely no backbone. It’s a pain reading about someone so pathetic, but I keep coming back thinking he’s FINALLY woken up and decided to actually tell the seme off but nah. At this point the seme and uke deserve each other, if only so no one else will have to suffer their company. (Uke might as well be a particularly dumb toddler for all the mental fortitude he shows)
It would have been so great if he went through with the plan.
He’ll be so much more of a badass.
What’s frustrating is, its not like seme proved he’s NOT a total monster and wouldn’t have done that to his friend. If anything he showed himself as even WORSE. And the uke just decides to not go through with the plan for absolutely no reason. Uke likes the seme bc the author says so, not because the author has actually written it to be believable that he does.
This author is like jinx’s author. They both like toxicity and think non toxic men are boring.
The seme is a frustrating character but nothing annoys me like pushover, no backbone, bottoms.
Your last statement speaks VOLUME!
The MC being one of the dumbest people on earth helps me to get through this. It’s like he’s too stupid to be traumatized.

Yeah because I’ve seen what comes in the raws and I can’t understand korean sadly but the imagery doesn’t look very wholesome
Drop the raws link?
Maybe he's literally just strong, hello?? What makes him stupid? You're hating for no reason. Not everyone reacts to traumatic events the same
Dude, no Matter how strong someone is, doesn't mean they don't get traumatized
He can be trumatized and not show it
It bothers me, just a nitpick, that Shingun didn’t figure out Jake’s identity on his own. There were several conversations about Shingun trying to put them on similar levels information wise, showed multiple scenes with his informant contact, built up the hackers getting serious on his side, all for the revelation to be given to him. Like Jake’s identity just stares him in the face, it’s nothing HE does to figure it out. It’s all circumstance.
I like Shingun, I do, definitely one of my favorite BL MC’s, but… he doesn’t beat the typical damsel in distress allegations. He always needs saving in the end and he never even gets close to equal footing as Jake. This is just my one nitpick in the story. Doesn’t ruin it for me, just wish this one element could have been addressed or handled better.
This could all be addressed in season 3, so holding out hope for that.
I so agree with him not knowing Jake’s identify but him being a “typical damsel in distress” is far from true he’s reckless and impulsive yes but Jake has only helped him when he was about to get assaulted which was a situation Jake made on his own and used shin as bait to bring down the gang and the recent from the biker gang , From what I can tell the rest of the story he can hold up his own without anyone interfering. when he payed Ross a visit and he was being way to pushy he punched Ross in the face beside when he helped hosung with those thugs on his own , We can tell so far he can handle on his own. If he got by so far by himself with danger at every corner since he lived most of his life on the streets. But sadly i feel every mc and ml have that dynamic no matter what you read the mc gets into some trouble and the ml helps him out of the situation so it’s to be expected this trope happens in Movies, Anime , Books , Shows, it’s very cliche but you can see this stereotype everywhere doesn’t matter the genre romantic or not. So I wouldn’t really say damsel in distress but just very careless and rash as well daring nonetheless that’s what just makes him , him a nonconformist, unrestrained mainchacter.
So I wouldn’t say that at all so many times the mc gets into a tight position where they can’t really do anything and that’s where the ml or side character provide support which is mostly for the story plot or for the characters to get closer and build a stronger bond or a deep connection its a good scenario as long as it’s not overplayed which hasn’t happened thankfully
moreover a main character who just succeeded in everything is just plain and has no depths whatsoever and would have no room for character development and just be superficial and very predictable in each thing they do. That’s why many storylines need those moments for development or sequences that needs to transpire throughout the story for it to be realistic and for the readers/viewers to connect with the Mc and story.

They’re going to do something when it’s time for him to be released that extends his time. Hopefully that’s enough for him to snap, even better if it’s timed with him learning they set up the whole gang rape scenario that got him to accept their deal in the first place. There’s no way Uke isn’t going to try to kill himself at least once.
Being the single parent to a manchild is draining, there’s no way the uke holds out longer than 6 months.
He could have thought up to save her, he landed on “I have to rape the woman I love multiple times and tell her nothing.” Like, yeah okay buddy, I’m sure that’s the ONLY WAY she could have been saved. The way that lets you sleep with the person you’ve wanted for multiple lifetimes now. How convenient.
When you convene with the hairy part of the brain, you can only conclude that "the testicles have spoken"
That fallacies might be involved in the whole ordeal apparently ALSO belong to the mystic realm.
Could a novel or raws reader drop some spoilers please? Or even the links
