Courtesy of the hair stylist also, woori looked better before the haircut.

Because of the lack of lightsabers. And I mean that in a good way. Anyway, can someone recommend other manhwas that are pleasantly surprising? Asking for a friend.

So short and so impactful. It's one of those works where you wish it was longer but at the same time, all has been said. By the ending they have doomed themselves to a life where they'll always long for the other, because just a single step closer will turn everything to ruin. How painful such an existence will be? Knowing you could have everything, but by having everything you'll lose it all.

The art is too pretty for words. The smut is hot. The plot? The premise of the story itself? Brilliant! Thought-provoking! I'm positive this manhwa will haunt me for days.

Ik the violent themes of this manhwa may be keeping people out. But I promise it's worth it to persist past that. This manhwa gives you well written characters with juicy back stories that propel the plot forward. I really loved how human the characters felt, in they're written in such a way that you can empathize with them even even if you may not agree with them. I loved the growth the characters went through, both positive and negative. This bl is not afraid to toe the lines of morality, but it doesn't sugarcoat or romanticize it. It just shows you what it is, and it is up to you to judge.

I recommend reading this if you like smut. There's smut almost every chapter, and they're done really prettily! The art is so pretty!

It's my first time seeing a swollen anus thanks to this BL. I've read other BLs mentioning the anus being swollen, but I've never seen it. Now that I think about it, it might actually be my first time thinking a bl character has a pretty hole! Lmaooo

Yian (or just Ian) is a good character in terms of being a male lead in a BL. He's just a walking green flag. The MC, idk, I don't agree with some of his actions, but I also do understand where they're coming from.

This is an easy read. A quick read, really, if you skip the smut. Plot-wise I feel like it doesn't deliver much. Not much tension (in the plot itself, not the characters), not much conflict, not much characterization outside of the main characters. There really isn't much.

The villain feels more like a side villain in that he doesn't feel like an actual villain. If anything, most of the elements in the manhwa feel like they were added to the manhwa just for the sake of adding them. Almost like fillers, just to fill the pages, when the actual goal is to deliver smut. The 60+ chapters feel unnecessary long, and I read this in one go.

Just read this for the smut, is what I'm suggesting. You can read this without thinking much, and I do understand that there are times when people want to do just that! The strongest point of this BL is the art and the smut!

But I read this in one go so I wasn't really attached to the characters...kind of sad that there was no redemption for yeomra, just... death. It would have made my life if, right before the yoomin unalived yeomra, there was a moment of hesitation in the former and/or a tiny bit of regret or questioning (Is this really what I wanted?) in the latter. It could have been just a shared gaze between the two without the anger or the desperation to kill or be killed, a quiet moment amidst the chaos, a shared knowing or acknowledgement that "We were once like that" Haaah it's always characters like yeomra that appeal to me the most. So much potential in their relationship, so much growth, so much angst, but alas, the author had a different plan entirely.

It's so interesting to me that while euijoon had reminiscence for ahjusshi in his youth, the same ahjusshi that we were introduced to in the beginning was what carried this story for most of us. He was aloof, a scary thug-type, older guy, but who was also actually honest and non-toxic. I remember finding ahjusshi to be a really refreshing character. In many ways he is an ideal partner.

I really had a lovely time with this manhwa, and will reread after some time. If I should point out a little flaw though, it will be the long years of separation. It didn't feel particularly heartbreaking, just felt like a lack of something, like some sort of ennui that felt flat and which I felt needed an oomph.

Woori is so fine he looks just like my type and the hairdresser is not bad too. Just make it 3p lmaoooo

    Fr, I'm hoping so badly that will end as a 3p relationship Aachan

    It'll be so interesting too bc the mc will start from being a character who barely has a social life to someone with 2 bfs?!

I actually like this but idk if the short chapters and the long gaps between each update is worth my time.

I feel like they've been hinting at us for some time now that sihyun in the past wasn't the nicest person and that he's earned hatred/enemies because of it...and it's starting to get old to me.

At this rate, it looks like this will take a year or two to get completed, and keeping up with it only to get crumbs is so :/ I'll just come back when it's done lol

    BrightSide July 21, 2023 9:19 pm

    Girl yes, I feel the same way. I'll just resist not reading the updates. It's no longer worth it when it's just one big cliffhanger for the next chapter, only for the next chapter to be ANOTHER cliff hanger -.-

I'm sorry but Jaewoo's partner is ugly I was hoping he'll be paired up with Jinhyeok, Ohn's student, in another bl, set way way later but ig it wont be him. Jinhyeok was a looker too and he looked close to jaewoo's type
