The first season felt very rushed to me, the relationship between the main couple felt mostly physical. It didn't feel like there was a connection there. I was surprised when they already got back together by chapter 9. I skipped most of the smut scenes from the first half of this bl. I wonder what the author was thinking, revealing vital information about the mc when it's nearing the end. It made it very difficult to relate to the mc (and even the ml) relatively.
In comparison, the second couple had more chemistry, more depth right from the very beginning. Their story was also more dramatic and more eventful. Even with the pacing. It's just...more fleshed out, more interesting over all...
Which is interesting when you look at it. Both of the couples are parallels of the other. I think that can be both the strength and weakness of this bl. It's a strength bc it was novel how those characters were intertwined with each other, but it's a weakness because they're so parallel that you can't help but compare them and then come to the conclusion that the first couple just pales next to the 2nd.
I would rate this 3.8/5. I enjoyed it but I wouldn't reread
But he's self-aware, which means he can correct himself when he finds that he's going back to his old tendencies. Meanwhile sangwoo's being led by his emotions, after being "rational" his whole life, which must be induce anxiety, not having control for the first time ever. So much character growth for these two
I always thought he was pretty but not cute!! In the recent chapters he looks so healthy
I thought this was a completed series that's why I began reading and now I have to follow the story and deal with my shitass memory
felt thattttt
I felt this on an astronomical level. I had to reread the whole thing because it's been to long. I needed to refresh my goldfish memory
Too* God I hate typos
god I would hate to do that I'm reading Payback right now and every time it updates I'm like "what happened the last time again?? Who are these people?"
That's why I haven't read Payback yet, I try my best to wait for series to be completed so I can read it in one go and have closure right away haha... (╥﹏╥)
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.
Choking up holding back tears right now
