Soo just read this, and definitely don’t read if you don’t have a tolerance for red flag/black flag MLs. I’d say the worst of the treatment is in season 1, and if anyone wants to skip the worst of it but also still know of the bad treatment, start at season 2. Anyways the story isn’t really anything new of the usual red/black flag stories.

On the other side, in my opinion the regret arc is satisfying. At least it’s more than the usual “toxic ML says sorry or I love you and that’s it or the usual life threatening accident which makes the mc take them back immediately.” The ML didn’t go through anything as terrible, but at least he cried a lot and there were scenes of him actually feeling regret and pain for thinking of how he treated MC- which satisfied me lmao. (Which is honestly a step-up from the kiss me liar ML, who completely forgot everything he did and had to be reminded lol).

Also I guess the reasoning behind the ML’s toxicity stems from his mother. His own mom drugged him and turned him into an alpha, to then use him to kill his own father and half brother with the pheromone explosion thing. The result should’ve made ML die as well, but his father and brother protected him, and they ended up dying, leaving him the only survivor. So the mother seriously planned to sacrifice her own son for her personal gain. AND THEN she also tied him up and had him raped by several omegas?? And so that’s where the lack of trust comes from?

I will say- this story is one of the BL manhwas I’ve read where the ring the ML’s uses to propose is actually unique and has meaning. Cause other stories with just give them a ring with a gem or a plain ring with no gem. Just look at chapter 81. The design basically means one ring is mc, the other is ml, and the tiny 2 rings attached to them are their babies. So it’s like a stack of two regular rings but if you hold one up, the mini rings connect/keep the two normal rings together. Which I fr thought was cute LOL.

YUHHH another red flag top x red flag bottom
(๑•ㅂ•)و✧

I must be the only one who likes the ML lmao. His backstory was already explained and ppl still don’t like him. I think he’s real cute especially when he’s taking care of his little brother. It was like a wholesome family trip
╮(￣▽￣)╭

Anyways I hate the hair color argument. People always whine about how blonde guys never win. NO. Yall just aren’t reading the right stories lmfao. There are thousands of blonde MLs. It just depends on the setting/genre. In historical settings, blonde/white hair ML is super common to the point ppl predict the ML 24/7 and get sick of it. I honestly see readers who choose to only read modern setting stories, complain about not getting a blonde ML. Like no wonder! Modern manhwa settings are usually set in Korea, where most of the population has black hair. You want blonde MLs in modern setting? Look on comic apps that have authors from all different cultures and will write the story based in a different country other than Korea.

I’m rereading season 2 and I realize that the ML’s brother is written to be contradictory? Like at times when he’s alone and has no reason to act whatsoever, he seems like he has a heart?! Like in chapter 56, he looks like he shows genuine interest in MC, and looks disappointed as well. But then in later chapters he’s suddenly all cold and ready to beat MC up??

I don’t know if this was author’s way of showing he’s got no redeeming qualities whatsoever, but it just seems too inconsistent. Because why would he even need to act sincere when no one else is around? I wonder if maybe the author changed their mind part way to make him irredeemable or if they intended for it to be like this from the start. If it’s intentional, it doesn’t flow well.

I liked this story but there’s so many moments where the FL is so DAMN IRRITATING. She’s one of those stubborn FLs who won’t listen to her own bf’s worries. She’s like “he’s just a friend.” Said friend kissed her before, likes her and she let it go on for ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FOUR CHAPTERS. She finally rejected the 2nd ML on the 124th chapter.

BUT not before agreeing to go out on a date with him, hold hands with him, and closed her eyes about to let herself get kissed AGAIN. Sure this event all started cause of the situation with ML’s exgf showing back up, and ML could’ve done better- but let’s be real, FL had it coming and this is the time when she’s finally jealous and feeling how the ML felt the ENTIRE manga. Yet ML lets it go every time. I think FL took it for granted that ML’s so chill, expressionless, like he’ll always accept it even when she’s friends with a guy who is in love with her. And even when ML finds about the date, it’s literally brushed off, FL says something like “he’s a nice guy, it was for closure.”

It’s either Orange dude or poly, no other options!!!

Anyways plot twist: FL isn’t actually unaware of what’s going on and she’s been secretly manifesting guys to want her with all those “vibe/affirmation” videos and using pheromone scent oil/perfume stuff lmaooo. Also the mc (orange dude) and FL remind me of the main couple from Bleach- orange coupleee

I just realized but it’s interesting that the author decided to make the hottest guy, the ML of the second couple lmao. His looks alone would’ve screamed main character material

Damn the taegu defenders fighting for their lives out here lmfaoooo.
The one thing I’m confused of is there’s different groups of taegu fans:


•the ones who think of him as green flag for how he only treats yeongwoon now (they don’t think of how he treats others outside of yw)

•the ones who talk about taegu being bad from the start should be obvious cause he’s a gangster- but that’s also their defense for him(?)

I’m more confused by the second group tbh. Like do you want ppl to understand taegu more, think of him as a bad guy or good guy? And there’s also ppl who use the gangster background saying he’s bad in the past but also changing?? Now that’s the part that’s most confusing. Cause wdym this man in his 30s is changing and still on this gangster behavior to everyone else?

Anyways not really saying taegu is a pedo, cause by definition he hasn’t shown to be that yet. Though there is the POV yeongwoon to consider. Yeongwoon thinks of taegu like an uncle/brother figure. And I think he’s starting to notice taegu gaining these feelings for him. That scene where taegu holds him in his house, and yeongwoon is yelling for him to let go, shows a lot about how yeongwoon may feel about this.

So people have been saying to differentiate them by the color of their earrings, but I don’t think that’s the case. In the author’s note, the author said it’s the NUMBER of piercings, not the color that differentiates them.

Because if you look sometimes they were the exact same color piercing. In the early chapters you see fckboy number one wearing black bottom earrings along with the ring earrings on top. Then you see one wearing only silver bottom earrings. And in Chapter 20, the twins standing side by side are both wearing silver earrings. The main difference is that fckboy number one is always wearing 6 earrings, pay attention to the earrings at the top of his ear.

So before I start reading, according to the title THIS BETTER BE POLY. Cause why tf would you mention a sandwich if not poly
