I CAN'T GSIWFWIWGW I'LL HAVE TO WAIT 2 MORE YEARS
If you follow the author on twitter or even follow the story for a while how you'll see the time difference of the uploads and it's because of how long it takes to make manga
The first volume was release back in 2017 and the 2nd volume around 2021? And now the third in 2024 so looking at the time frame it could be around 2-4 more years before the next volume if we are lucky since the mangaka is also working on coyote, their other work, it shows on twitter that they're in the process of inking and finishing up the final volume of coyote, and that could take months
Unlike manhwa and even episodal online manga, majority of Japanese manga are made to print, so they around 100-300+ pages to work with and they're made to be printed into paperback form so only finished mangas are published which could take years since they have to finish the book first and the amount of detail that they put in
So taking all that in consideration plus how the author mentioned health problems in their twitter I would estimate 2 years of waiting if we are lucky but because they are currently still working on another manga that's not close to finish and then she'll have to draft up a the outline and then ink up the next volume of this manga we could definitely wait to 3-4 or more years to get the next volume
Just praying it would be two years or else and she'll be healthy so that it won't hinder her or stop the manga before the end, also praying the last volume would be the last so we wouldn't wait more years before we finally see it complete
I can't bear to see the betrayal happen
Plausible theory but I feel like the author would try to atleast have yeonjo follow through atleast attempted assassination to honor some of Yeonjo's feelings about revenge because suddenly forgetting or throwing the revenge plan that was a vital part of the story would definitely leave a bad taste
I think you're onto something though, maybe he'll go do the plan and when yeonjo thinks he succeeded or failed he'll try to kill himself, heeryang may save him or the other creepy dude who likes him
The one thing though is that it's still part 1 and seeing as we are already aodund 70+ chapters, there definitely has more to the story if we we'll have part 2 with similar ish chapter count and maybe part 3 also if the author has more to the plot that we don't know that's why I was seriously shocked when I noticed the openings still has it in part 1 when its been over 60 chapters already, meaning the story is far from ending
Atleast we'll have it ongoing for a couple more years
IT WAS BEAUTIFUL BUT THE ENDING WAS RUSHED
ALSO WE NEED MORE YURI?!? WHO DID HE MISS? WAS YURI SECRETLY PINING ALL ALONG? IS IT JUNGMIN? OR SI DOGUN?
I loved this story more than I thought I would but I really didn't like how the other side characters were side tracked specifically yuri who has a strong presence in the early chapters but was suddenly pushed to the backburner, I wished we saw more about his own story and what's the backstory with the guy dojin fought with because he was trash talking yuri
I honestly feel like yuri has some feelings for someone, I really think it's dogun or jungmin because they were the only two he interacted with the most
Also f the guy who stole the design, not cool dude, that's stealing, wish he gets karma
Like even in the early chapters it was clear as glass that the older brother also had a brother's conflict, like it was obvious man, I don't see the plot twist at all
I skipped so many parts so the story is confusing but overall it's meh, good read if you only look at the art but I am not a big fan of the plot mostly because I don't like prostitution in stories
I honestly feel like my theory is coming to fruition, the end of part 1 would end with hee ryang's assassination, the author won't kill him off yet I know it
There's still part 2 which I am sure off, although I am unsure if there would be a part 3.for now I am sticking with the end of part 1 assassination attempt, part 2 would be the climax of the action
Maybe a coop for the throne now that hee ryang is indisposed, or chaos of some kind maybe even war from their enemies in the borders
But I am betting on chaos maybe even between the officials
Still leaning towards the hee Ryang fakes his own death and hide out while the chaos is on going within the story
If the assassination attempt does happen (although I bet that hee ryang would live) yeonjo will definitely have mix feelings about it, it already shows with how he hesitates
I feel like part 2 is where he finally confronts his feelings and thoughts on the matter
This definitely is tye calm before the storm
I am preparing my heart for the inevitable that would happen ane that would definitely be a whole lot of pain, I am just praying we get happy ending or smth
THEY'RE SO CUTE TOGETHER THO! I WISHED IT ENDS THERE BECAUSE OF HOW DOMESTIC AND SWEET THEY ARE HERE
TJ FANS STOP MAKING ME FALL FOR HIM PLEASE
Seriously though I hate love triangles but also love them, depends if the one I want is winning or endgame (yahwi) I've seen reviews and we still don't have a clear winner which means It could go either way
I don't want to be biased the moment I read a love triangle because more often than not I usually get disappointed but like ya'll TJ fans had be convinced he was the only ML here
People on twitter, tiktok, Facebook, Ig literally has him as the face if wet sand, I didn't know it was a love triangle until I read the synopsis for this!
Legit thought TJ was Jo and had the westernised name like what they do if they translate manhuas and give characters names similar or the same meaning as their Chinese name like river and forest
When I found out it was a love triangle I shocked and I felt scammed
It was cut off
Anyway I just want to say to the amazing editors out there you really made me think this wasn't a love triangle
Also kinda feel sorry for Jo, he hardly has any posts about him.... But I get it it's TJ, man has tats and a face so hot the scar made it hotter
I really wanna go here blind but damnnn the videos are literally swaying me to TJ
Jo has a lot of simps too but we just don't see it unless someone use that damn tag. The author has purpose for everything lol. She can't highlight her main leads simultaneously. I remember her saying all three of them will be highlighted. Right now she is creating a lot of hype for Jo while keeping him low profile because Jo as a character is still a mystery compared to TJ and Ian.
Typical love triangle fandom behavior lol
I remember those times when I got heated because of them, one reason why I stopped reading love triangles all together or wait for them to finish because I can't handle joining shipping wars in a BL fandom where it could be canon
Already dealing with shipping wars in my anime fandoms lol
Never knew that Jo stans don't use the wet sand tag, it's kinda weird if I say so myself considering that's the tag for the fandom which would easily broaden his reach and influence to get more fans
In truth I really feel like Jo would win because he is the one in the synopsis, it's quite clear that the first guy will win, love or hate, yours to claim etc
But there is also a catch on that troupe and that's the fact that the winners of those mentioned love triangles got back with the ex
So maybe it could sway onto TJ if that's the troupe the author will go towards, and another one is the manhua, God of pains groom which SPOILER!!
The first guy we met and fell for isn't the endgame, which was a twist I didn't expect because the title in itself and the synopsis had us thinking he would be endgame same with the first chapters
But like I said most love triangle troupe does choose the newer guy, back to school is a good example of that
Honestly I don't know who'd win tbh if the author took into consideration the fandom audience and preference it could be TJ but usually authors won't really care about it and choose to prioritise their original plot, if the author has always wanted the new guy aka jo to win then he'll win
Idk what am talking about anymore, I just want a confirmation of who would win
Chap 2 surprised me because our adorable wolf defo would not do that but then I remember that territory is something they are very protective off hoping no more angst
Sorry dog kun but please do not and I mean do not come over them or else! They are my babies and I will defend shirou and usami to hell and back









THE MATCHING BROKEN FINGERS
Surprisingly enough it reminded me of caesar and leewon having matching gun wounds caused by the other lmaoo (roses and champagne, where the couple has literally shot the other)
