The twist made me feel so much better, and also so much worse. 9/10 would read again.
Bro, easy 9/10. I love it so much, I'm over here fucking squealing and being jealous even though if I had to go through what they did, I'd legit lose my shit.
Some of y'all never been to a small community town and it shows.
Was born, raised and lived for 18 years in a very small community fishing town. Still hate homophobes and people up in other people's business. Whoever anyone dates is nobody else's fucking business and using your neighbor's private information without their knowledge or consent is still a crime even in the middle of the forest
It's great that you came out that way, not everyone can say the same. I'm not trying to excuse what she did. It is a crime, and she should definitely be punished for that. I'm saying that, her circumstances play a part in her actions and she needs to be educated rather than crucified.
You know what it's like. It's absolutely miserable not being able to make your own decisions or have opinions outside of the "norm". There are things they choose not to teach entirely or things that are simply false information.
This is not me trying to justify what she did. Even if her intentions were not malicious, it doesn't change the fact that it was completely wrong, a crime. If I come off that way, I'm sorry.
All I'm saying is, I can see how she got there. Rather than being mad about the obvious crime she committed, I'm disappointed.
I was actually born and raised with a small town mentality, where people get married early "to the right people," or where your parents are the top authority no matter what decision you want to make, very outdated shit (even worse with an abusive family), but even then when I moved to a bigger city I learned it was normal, and I always knew that charing information could get you in trouble. Plus, she did go to Seoul to study before she went to live with her grandmother,...and she did ask him if he wanted a girlfriend, and if he wanted to go on a blind date, but he said no...and she went and did it anyway.
That she did. She's definitely wrong for that. Again, I'm not trying to justify what she did. It is wrong. But people calling her a bitch because she's nosey and ignorant... I just think that the hatred being thrown at her does not fit the crime committed, especially when she wasn't trying to be malicious (as far as I can tell anyway, we'll see).
Also, I'm glad you got out of that community. Unlearning internalized ideologies is difficult for a lot of people, I'm so glad you did that for yourself. (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
I know, I think sometimes people use such words because it's normal (a friend used to call me bitch until I told her to stop, but for her it was normal), plus they get passionate about it.
I'm really trying not to offend you over this, but I'm lumping her in with those guys at the bar that can't take a hint. They push and push even if you've declined multiple times and think they'll be the best thing that could ever happen to someone and it's that someone's loss to have missed the opportunity to be with such a package
I really need to process. First of all 6/10 because Jimmy/Henry is everything I want in a couple.
The author has literally so many twists in this my brain is practically spinning. And even though a lot of them I could kind of see coming, like Mason being a wolf, and Taylor having been one of the main people experimenting with wolves.
The art style is better than anything I could draw, so no comment on that.
The plot is pretty jumbled. There was a lot going on, but there was a clear beginning and end to each storyline.
I didn't enjoy how some characters developed, or how they were portrayed. Like, Scott suddenly being the good guy when he stepped up to save Henry and Jimmy. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the dude was not smart. Like, he could not have thought that far ahead, nothing in the story would lead me to believe he could come up with a plan like that, and if it wasn't just a ploy, nothing about his character would lead me to believe he would turn over a new lead all of a sudden.
Mason... Oh lovely, lovely, Mason. He was a dumbass from start to end. To say that Henry was the only person he ever cared about after what he tried to do to him? Honey, no. Mason was portrayed as a play boy who would cut people off at the drop of a hat. For ten cents and a piece of gum type shit. There was nothing to lead me to believe that he actually gave a damn about Henry.
Honestly, I do like this story. It's cute, sometimes, it's heart wrenching for no goddamn reason (fuck you Taylor, also thank you because Hemmy), the side characters were cool, and the personalities of the main characters came through in the best way... It's just... Trying to look past the translation (which some people dislike, as long as I can understand it, it's fine), the art (which some people also dislike, again, doesn't bother me), and the twists the author shoved into this hell of a story... It's actually okay.
This is a good story. I'd read it again. I hope y'all at least try and read from start to finish. If for nothing else, than to experience this author's vision. It's really not bad.
I agree with you I just hate read the entire thing and the one thing I can’t get over is Jimmy and Taylor’s relationship, it feels so wrong and the characters are just mad that they’re gay?! As if Taylor wasn’t basically jimmy’s dad/older brother

Look, I'm all for fucked up stories, and this one is pretty fucked up I'm not gonna lie. It's not as fucked up as a lot of stories out there and it's definitely more tame than most yaoi stories. The art is fine, I couldn't draw it so I'm not one to speak on art styles. The storyline is... Okay, I guess. There were unresolved subplots, but it's like that sometimes, I'll get over that.
All and all, it's worth the read for the experience of reading it. The smut is nice to look at, their faces, not so much. I'll give it a 7/10, mainly because I wanna beat the father's ass... If I'm able to get around that, I'd give it a solid 8/10
No honestly I agree fr I've read so many more fucked up stories than this I'd give it a solid 8/10 tooo
He still hasn't apologized for his blatant homophobia. Homie, I'm fine with this awakening, it's cute, however...
If this bitch don't apologize on his hands and knees for saying all that homophobic shit to Garam (or in general), I'mma swing on him. I don't know if I could forgive someone that was so hateful towards me because they didn't understand their own feelings.
Those are not insults I can just brush off.
He so fruity it's giving tropical. Love the sass, be jealous boo . Get your mans, help him work through his issues.
