i feel like the ML’s initial incentive to become the perfect man for MC is a bit insufficient. idk, you could say it’s the power of love, but how did the ML become so motivated to become respected, rich and handsome (not to mention low key obsessed) for a guy who basically did not care about him. MC leeched off ML’s money and material items in HS, where was the relationship beyond that?
it just feels a bit too convenient for the MC that hes forced in this situation where he gets the “perfect man”. it just doesn’t feel like he deserves it considering it seems he has barely changed and continues to “put his own enjoyment first.”
just generally there wasn’t enough runtime to flesh out anything, or have any character development. i’m sorry— it escalated from the MC realizing he was in love to a 10 year time skip
Yea thats the point and is why its only 7 chapters long
yeah no, taehyun’s a bit unbearable at the start, but ive since learnt to empathize with him as the story goes on. taehyun, since childhood, experienced a great deal of neglect, to internalizing mostly if not just the blame and burdens of other people. those r the most genuine and most familiar emotions he understands, which is why i imagine he breaks down when trying to articulate things like empathy and love.
it’s because of this that i appreciate how the author expresses taehyun’s kind of slow emotional uptake on everything. so including how long it took for him to verbalize that he wanted to pursue a relationship with the MC to (in the side stories) just expressing what he wants. clearly this doesn’t excuse the stuff he did, but it’s interesting to see that, even at the end, taehyun’s still working through his emotional setbacks that would ultimately influence his experiences of love. just a lil something unique that i don’t normally see in these kinda of stories
usually when the story just completely diverges from the main couple to focus on an entirely different one, i immediately lose interest.
but i think it’s because seonwoo is such an asshole, im having fun seeing this man get kicked of his high horse by a guy that’s bigger than him. haha, the dynamic is pretty interesting, hope to see more of them.
LMAO THE TITLE PAGE CHANGING TO THE SECOND COUPLE THO- new viewers r about to be hella confused
right,i was starting to think the blondie was the sunbae lol
i just want to extend onto @loading’s comment in saying how yuri has been a red flag from the start, cos yes, yuri sucks cos he’s lowkey a guilt-tripper and brat, but it’s not like this anything new, since yuri has ALWAYS been like this since he first started liking seonwoo.
it has been through these toxic methods that yuri has gotten seonwoo to sleep him, live with him, take care of him even BEFORE seonwoo reciprocated yuri’s feelings. u can probably say that it’s even contributed to them getting together.
and that now that they’re together, yuri isn’t going to magically default to being a healthy person cos he isn’t. and in saying so i’m not saying that i hate yuri cos i don’t, neither does that mean his behaviour should be excused. atm, i trust nodeok (the author) to address this properly, and handle yuri’s emotional journey in a reallt mature way a lot of the story’s elements have already been handled
especially with ch.122, HE IS trying to hold back, it’s not he’s unaware of his tantrums, this development parallels to a literalt mental breakdown of him crying about how frustrated he is with his own immature tendencies and tantrums that cause trouble to others (this was when he was still like heejoo)
TLDR: give some slack to yuri
Finally, a person with common sense.. Just enjoy it guys(▰˘◡˘▰)
honestly i’m really glad yohan’s there to call yuri out on his toxic bs. he’s there to affirm that WITHIN the series (and for the viewers), that his behaviour is NOT okay, which makes me think that yuri and seonwoo’ s relationship will probably change. i knew the endgame wasn’t going to be easy, but i hope yuri understands this soon…
sorry i put a down hand instead of a good hand (i mean the button , sorry don't know a lot of english)
hi! here on mangago we usually call these "upvote" and "downvote"
but it's more common to see it as "like button" and "dislike button" or just like and dislike
you can use it as verbs too, of course, "they like" "i disliked", etc, and also "i upvoted/downvoted"
i know it's kinda hard to learn a second language by yourself, we should all help each other out
god, i love yuri with all my heart but his behaviour (since ch.115) is just toxic, atleast at this point of the relationship where their relationship has already come PAST the need for sympathy to keep going. i think that yuri wanting seonwoo to take pity on him comes back to how they even came to interact in the first place and how yuri first came to discover that he even “liked” seonwoo. theres an earlier chapter that literally states that yuri’s love comes in the form of sympathy (haha, lol get it) like— while his behaviour is pretty toxic, i can see where it’s coming from, hence earlier events and yuri’s dysfunctional family. but also, at the end of the day, i think it’s all apart of the healing and development process that seonwoo, and now yuri has to go through. seonwoo has learnt to overcome much of his guilt to even pursue a further relationship with yuri and now yuri will probably need to learn that their relationship can exist without the need for pity and sympathy.
i love this story and it’s characters to bits, and i hope it goes well for both of them. (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
so trueeee i love them both sm
see u guys in a year
a- a year??? TT
