this feels like a very realistic yaoi gangster psychological slice of life story, does that make sense?
Baek Ho's a psychotic gang leader, and he likes Haesoo bc of his defiance. but this isn't a romantic thing, it's very much about control. Haesoo's character is basically a sweetie (doormat) who would do anything for the people who care for him, so he obv wouldn't put anyone in danger when he knows Baek Ho was on his tail. knowing Abi, that fucker probably didn't do anything more than the bare minimum to get Haesoo's loyalty; which means Haesoo doesn't have education or money to get away. The only thing he could do realistically do in this scenario is go back to Baek Ho and somehow live the rest of his life till Baek Ho tires of him.
I don't like the story, but it makes sense.
this story feels weird bc it feels like the author made the characters tamer midway.
first, sirang was set up to be a typical black flag kinda guy, with the coercion, harassment, the line about only letting ho go after toying with him fully, etc. Then almost immediately there's a role reversal and he is a man in love, pining over ho. he even has the guts to yell????? at ho?????? for only meeting him to get something out of him (the photo in the beginning)????????
bro why tf did you take that strategic pic then????? for shits and giggles??????
and honestly ho is just trying to live his life without worrying about his shit mom and shittier stepbro, so i don't rlly blame him too much for falling for sirang's bs. after all, he strongly needs unwavering attention, and it looks like sirang can provide that for him.
so the first couple worlds were obv quick-transmigration type worlds. Then they get to the ABO world, which is where we find out that Mo Shen is also the same person transmigrating in the different worlds and that mc and mo shen have history in their og worlds. Then mc remembers all the past worlds and that breaks the illusion of the ABO world and they get to their reality which is probs earth but more techy (i.e. no crazy au, just more scientifically advanced) and Mo Shen had been funding research into this crazy matrix-like simulation thingy to get mc to remember their good times or whatever
Linus heard these lines and decided that sounded perfect: "You know I'd do anything for you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, I would go through all this pain
Take a bullet straight through my brain
Yes, I would die for you, baby"
Kiel took the motto "gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss" too seriously lmaooo
The man has NO shame, the way the lies flowed outta his mouth i'm so glad i wasn't courtier in that room coz i'd have been beheaded for laughing my ass off and giving the ploy up
Damn, gotta wait a couple chapters for them to stop boning each other so we cab get back to the plot
The fact that the STALKER is somehow the more sane person is cracking me tf up
this is what Geolson's Tale refuses to be. this mf managed to fake being nice till he managed to get seo yo to his side (and actually got the urge to actually change his twisted ways at the very end) and McRapey from Geolson's Tale can't even be bothered to do this.
melmont struggling for his life to protect abel's chastity from karas and no one else even understanding the battle he's enduring is absolutely decimating me lmaooooo
WHAT THE HELLL BRO LET THIS POOR MAN GET THE FREEDOM TO LIVE HIS LIFE ON HIS OWN TERMS HE DID EVERYTHING RIGHT SO WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO HIM AHHHH (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Comn bbg get yourself outta that POS's kingdom i begggg (。･´д`･。)(。･´д`･。)(。･´д`･。)
I remember reading this manga (yaoi) a long time back, and I can't remember the title for the life of me. The plot goes something like this:
MC is a paparazzo working for a shitty tabloid company, and his boss tells him to stake out some hotel bc the most popular and unproblematic star was seen going there or something. MC used to know this star back in their childhood days coz they went to the same school, so he felt about it, but he gotta make some dough so he goes. He manages to gain access to the star, and kinda tricks him into getting some suggestive pics taken of him. Then the star basically reveals that he knew that MC was a pap all along, and he'd be ok with MC ruining his public image as long as he slept with the star (iirc, the star had a crush on MC) and it's a happy ending somehow.
if anyone knows the manga I'm talking about, pls do tell.
