LOVE how everything got solved in one chapter and all of Suha's lies are forgiven in a few panels, peak fiction writing
Also, the anti-Suha comments are taking me out
and when I said ALL four main characters have done SA, no one believed me
naww why is everyone hating on MC so much, I kinda like him lol
Throughout Dohyeok's sidestories, the rating remained the same. As soon as the main couple's sidestory started, the rating dropped (after years!). I'm cackling lmao.
The cover of the volume is so beautiful, they better have a happily ever after or I'll cry
Killian needs to PAY UP that swan statue doesn't mean shit
Yk I would have actually liked it if Jiwoon took the initiative to try and get close with his siblings. Of course he doesn't have to, but it would have been good character development for him. Developing healthy family dynamics would also be really good for his and Suha's relationship.
Kotani is still being inconsiderate about Shishikura's feelings. It's not just the ceremony he wants but actual married life. They should either talk it out or break up. I would love to see a chasing arc.
for once it's nice to see the comments section share the same opinion. it doesn't matter whether everyone likes dohyeok/felt sympathy for him or not, but we can all agree that the ending was unsatisfactory for various reasons. i want to talk about it.
first, dohyeok's karma. apparently this "hardcore" sidestory's purpose was for dohyeok to get his punishment in the full, which idk is justified to what extent? he was: jailed, raped (twice) to the point where he got an ED, got betrayed by his "friends" and was gangraped, got PTSD, sent overseas by his grandma who never considered his say in the matter. he fell for siwoo, got rejected, begged him to believe his feelings but got turned down anyway. still, it could have been acceptable, if siwoo hadn't kissed that npc faceless character in front of dohyeok. his face when he saw that will always haunt me, out of everything he has been through, this must be the moment he hit his breaking point. i felt for him in those scenes. his anger is SO justified, and his inner monologue was heartbreaking.
second, siwoo's character. it's honestly really disappointing to see an initially complex character like him have such a horrible downfall. he was somewhat likeable in the main story, but he kept getting worse in the sidestories. how he managed to have absolutely zero character development for 30+ chapters needs to be studied. till the end, he kept thinking about his bar and family business only. his thoughts while kissing the npc: "i am no longer under your control, i don't have to worry about my bar or seorim" (actual translations may differ). truly the most selfish character i have come across in recent BLs, him using his "niceness" as a facade is very deceitful and low of him. needless to say, he gained an immense amount of haters overnight, which is justified.
lastly, closure. nothing was resolved. it was mentioned that dohyeok was planning to do something with kim yongwu and co., but none of that was shown. so his rapists who drugged and raped him don't deserve karma? only he does? i don't understand why the author bothered making a sidestory about a character she hates so much, and if she wanted her readers to hate him as well, why make us sympathize with him and wish for his happiness? if stories like sadistic beauty bl ss, no reason and the warehouse can end with the couple staying together, why not these two? an open ending was still expected, siwoo could have taken his scarf, told dohyeok goodbye and asked him to move on. but no, he had to show us readers exactly why his relationships don't last for more than a month. he doesn't even have feelings for the poor guy he kissed, he just did it to show dohyeok idk what. siwoo, SIWOO WHEN I CATCH YOU SIWOO, SIWOO WHEN I CATCH YOU. (suha also never learnt about any of this lol.)
a very rushed ending, upsetting both korean and international readers. i really do hope dohyeok gets his own solo story where he finds someone better and gets therapy, learns how to be kinder to people around him, and also to himself. healing is what he needs the most. also, shoutout to my girl ms jung for staying loyal towards dohyeok till the end, he respected her a lot. here's to hoping a new story with dohyeok, although it's just wishful thinking right now.

hello everyone. author confirmed on twitter that their story will end after a few episodes, so prepare yourselves for that haha...
um why aren't the official translations from tappytoon being uploaded?
y'all dohyeok haters are losers lmao, when someone brings up the rape done by other characters you block them so quick
Dohyeok haters are a different breed, going as far as to make assumptions about things he never did. Siwoo-centric readers will first, never recognize the multiple times he sexually assaulted Dohyeok, and then act like Dohyeok never tried to treat Siwoo nicely.
Dohyeok waited for him and drove him to a nice restaurant and treated him to dinner, they couldn't finish eating because Dohyeok's PTSD got triggered but that's different. When Siwoo ghosted him, he even went to his workplace and later asked him to sleepover, only to see him gone as soon as he woke up.
Blackmailing is not something I will ever support, but if his nice approaches don't work then obviously he will resort to his usual tendencies to get what he wants. You don't have to be in love with a character to understand that. Not to mention, Siwoo himself said that he doesn't care if Dohyeok does something to his bar, so he never took the threats seriously from the beginning.
Also, so many people simply can't comprehend how anyone can like him. Let me tell you this, I have read the main story and I still love him. No one owes you an explanation for this, like how I don't go around asking people why they like red-flag tops who should be in jail.
Most importantly, why exactly are you wasting your time hating on a literal drawing and attacking the fans of a fictional character? Don't you have, like, a life or something? So annoying.
as usual i love the comments section here. i buy the chapters as soon as they're released because i am OBSESSED with him and i need fast access lol. and these days it's nice to see more and more dohyeok lovers here <3
