Okay, there were a lot of things I let slide because this is clearly a more silly plot with stupid characters and whatnot. But what has really thrown me off it and made me not enjoy Eungyo (ML) and Seyoon (MC friend and lawyer) is the scene after ML confesses to MC and they agree to cohabitate and raise baby together.
ML has lawyer come to him to revise the consent form and basically make it a slave contract for MC to ensure he stops running away when he panics. In doing so, he has him say that if MC runs away or does something ML doesn’t like, misses more than three of MLs calls, goes out overnight, etc. he can never see the baby again and will be exiled from his home/country, ML gets all his assets, so on so forth.
AND THE LAWYER/ “FRIEND” AGREES TO IT. He’s like, “hell yeah you can be the legal guardian of this low IQ baby adult I have basically been put in charge of and supposedly care about, I respect you dude for thinking so far ahead!”
What fucking weirdos. None of these people have his best interest in mind and it feels so gross. Like this is homeboys LEGAL COUNSEL signing him into a slave contract when he is so smitten with ML he would clearly do anything to stay with him regardless, he went this far to have his baby (which is its own set of weird but was consensual so there’s at least that which is more than I can say for what these assholes are doing.)
Anyway, that’s my rant. May not seem like a big deal, just felt unnecessary and pissed me off because the MC is clearly portrayed as childlike and helpless.
Anyone that’s lost a pet can relate I’m sure, but though they weren’t dogs I’ve lost some buns in recent years and I had similar thoughts/reactions when they passed. I kept thinking “please know I love you, please know I’m sorry, if you stay I’ll do better, I wish I could have done better, you were so precious to me and I hope you know that, I don’t know what I’m supposed to do if you go.”
So I really cried reading this part in the novel and again seeing it here. It’s so difficult having something you put so much love into and accepted so much love from go when you aren’t ready. I don’t really even think it gets better, you just get better at living with the loss.
I need to know who the author is fucking, because no one else in the game is selling sexual tension or just plain SEX like Kyo Woo.
I’m convinced Shin and Jake are real people in the world baby making as we speak, 1000000/10.
I’ve already given my 2 cents on why ML is being an issue with all of this but I can at least find the humor in someone being so delusional as to get a tattoo of his name which isn’t even his name lmao.
Dude clearly either goes by a nickname or his name is spelled with a unique character, so when others try to replicate it it’s a tell.
Checked in just long enough to confirm that too much time was taken on the rape scenes but damn were the plot components rushed.
Dipped out quick once I realized this was clearly another, much worse case of following a good work like Hyanghyeon/ Love Shuttle with a shit work like Hogu Hagyeongsu.
The ML fucking sucks taint and the MC has the personality/will power of a deflated testicle, how is the most recent comment praising this author
I will literally be fucking rotting in soil before this bitch let’s them do more than shake hands. What was the point of having two couples when you clearly don’t even like one of them. Forget about progress, this is anti progress. Just say they decided to be platonic or some shit so we can stop waiting.
The author gives so much progress to He Tian and Mo and lets the OGs crawl with shredded bloody fingers to nowhere, I’m about to drop this shit despite how much I love the art and the potential it’s been too damn long.
Brother adopted mutants and then died, let’s pick a different role model to build off of
Definitely think he killed his dad since usually in these scenarios you look to blame others when you can’t handle the weight of such traumatic events/memories (thus the surpression). “Of course you’d be a likely candidate, it’s within the bounds of your character, I’d never hurt my loved ones.” Thoughts like these prevent introspection around what actually occurred because it’s too much to bear.
I also like what the other commenter suggested around Jinwoo being the issue here. Like he somehow started the chain reaction of events in the world and we just don’t know how (memory is the missing link) but I’d even push it a step further and tie in the authors tag about unrequited love. The title is Hounds of Sisyphus. Either Jinwoo is making Guwon pay for something with an eternal life by having stitched him back together (if those aren’t tattoos as I’ve previously theorized) and this would explain his resurrected toddler state of relearning and fixation on protecting the town/sexing up Jinwoo. Or Jinwoo is being punished for trying to bring back his dead mother whose death he couldn’t handle and in doing so fucked everything up and is now being punished and Guwon is the hound sent to him (one track mind/unrequited love style.)
Lots of thoughts and probably no goddamn answers for another season
Author on a mission to create the shittiest plot known to man when being blessed with god tier art.
Feels a little Noah’s Ark. Necessary roles only and the rest perish type shit, with a merciless God no one can go against.
Bitchy incel Mugo deserves the cuck chair. Can’t wait until the personalities merge so he can stop being so unbearable.
Absolutely loved the part where Owen was sexually harassed into having an unwanted physiological reaction, only to come home and be sexually assaulted by his week long situationship who forewent conversation so he could force his own feelings/desires onto his vulnerable partner.
Nick is the shining example of men (and some women) who white knight in bad situations to get a foothold, huge fucking love bombs, only to show their true colors later when doing the bare minimum stops serving their purpose.
Not that being the jankiest fucking dragon I’ve ever seen and I read this manga with rose colored glasses okay?
Is our homeboy a fucking DOG??? I’m being so fr did they intentionally mislead us with the title and were we meant to take it literally?? Is he a fucking HOUND of Sisyphus? The ignorance of everything but brute force/power dynamics, the odd wounds that most people wouldn’t survive, his eyes, the not being allowed/able/comfortable to sleep because he had to be alert on behalf of others, the absolute OBSESSION with sex once he was introduced, the necklace acting as a collar being given to his “one and only” master/target/something??
Maybe I’m reading too heavily into it but yall now that we’ve gotten more chapters our brother is looking like a fucking dawg personified which admittedly doesn’t make me as squeamish as the cum puddle squelching between them, that was vile
Author wasn’t too subtle with the “Was there always someone sitting here” in a meeting this guy attends EVERY DAY immediately followed by the fucking body snatcher interloper story in the first five minutes of the plot, sprinkled with “this guy is creepy and I don’t remember shit about him” every time he popped up like if I didn’t already know right off the bat, you definitely waterboarded me with the answer, the only thing I need from season 2 is homeboy getting the fuck out of Dodge because I can’t stand the ML.
I don’t know why I read this again after being so pissed off by the raws months ago but come onnn boy like this entire season was built on you making up for doing THIS EXACT THING years ago just for you to DO IT AGAIN stupid motherfuckerrr I can’t stand dumb shit like this BWAT I know you can make better plot points if you’re looking for angst/drama
