Why are there so many people cheering for MC falling in love with his family’s murderer? Am I the only one here utterly disappointed with the direction the author chose? Why can they never stick with revenge stories and always back to Stockholm syndrome? Does plot not sell well in BL anymore?
Its not Stockholm, that does not even exist. It's called empathy and understanding another side of the story. Humans are not black and white, you can't put them into good and evil, unless they have done the crime to satisfy ego's and do not have any remorse for their crimes.
Yeonjo's perspective is biased. His father and family may be good people to him, but to the country, they are not. Yeonjo is discovering that the murderer of his father did not do what he did for some stupid reason. Heeryang had to survive and followed orders. If there is anyone to hate it would be the one who ordered it. But even then, was his father really faultless? Was his father really not a threat to the kingdom? Yeonjo is simply broadening perspectives.
I just caught up with the latest chapter and Jesus Christ what a joke of a psychologist he is. What’s the high rating for? Just the pretty art? The author prompted MC up as a genius and with crazy high qualifications, you’d have a little higher expectations of an amazing story that leads to mutual attraction.
He got drawn to his clientele so fast and only after crossing every unethical, unprofessional thing imaginable did he thing to take a step back. Like bruh, I lost respect for the story, what a waste
Reading chapter 19 made me realize how predictable this story is. Although I’m not sure if it’s due to me reading so many BL’s over the years so all the tropes seem to have been tried and done. Is it so hard to create 3 dimensional personality instead of the usual a-hole arrogant ML and hard-working good natured characters?











So the man dies in front of you, and you don’t bother to double-check with authorities on who died to make sure? I’m loving how everyone is complaining over the uke’s incompetence. Nothing breaks my concentration more than a lazy author that can’t be bothered to research properly and creates dumb situations for the uke to trip into to further the plot.
No because if I’m being honest, in defense of the Uke. I wouldn’t check with authorities. Why would he? He has no reason to doubt the man’s death. It happened in front of him and he thought of seme as a “normal” person. Who would fathom someone faking their own death? And if the seme can stage a death, I’m more than confident the authorities wouldn’t reveal the truth to a random if the uke asked. The writing is lazy but not in this instance
