Anyone here who already set up hitman funds for that ugly ass director's son? Please sign me up we gotta protect our baby Andrew's smile
I hope it will somehow make you guys feel better, Gunwoo/Kunwoo (Hakyung's bro) will end up being being Myeongsung (Yoonsung's dad) favorite. GW ended up working at YS's family hospital and MS kinda like supports him all the way.
It was worth marinating the last 10 chapters. It was as if I watched the entire climax of a movie in one go
Looking forward seeing Tae-han so full when he eat all those words
I gotta admit at first I didnt like the arc coz I thought it was just like a Clara tantrum then Iruma will console her like usual, but dang, my heart is now content that this arc this time showed how deep Azz and Clara's bond is even if Iruma will not be around. Im an Azz x Clara shipper and Clara making Azz say and do things out of the box bec of her (well for Iruma it's understandable) makes me think no other girl is is better seen as Azz's future wife haha
I saw in prev comments that this is kinda plot armour. Tbh, this was my initial thought when I read the novel but then I start researching and computing and it was KINDA possible. Please don't quote me as this is self research this may vary a little irl.
Nursing home expenses
Ave monthly nursing home cost is between 900k to 1.5M won (probs the cheapest) Ofc this may mean it's just the lodging, food and care but other expenses like meds, hygiene needs etc might not be included. In the novel, The pastor/idk I was lost in translation but they are the ones helping YW, offered to help with the expenses to lower the cost. So probably the other things were shouldered by them and he only needs to pay the lodging which is 900k won.
The ave monthly salary in Korea is within 2-4M won. Since YW(MC) is a part timer he probably gets half or less. It was said in the novel he gets paid 1.2m won so he still has 300k won left. Not enough for a living yes, but he doesnt need to pay for rent-they have their own dilapidated house, he lives under gov't help too (that's why he was able to go to highschool, also probs covering the), he eats in the pizza parlor where he's working, and he only walks from and to work.
Spoiler: Towards the middle part of the novel, The pastor, told YW that they can(or probs the church idk the translation is not exact) that they can cover Gran's entire expenses in the nursing home so he no longer needs to worry abt it. Maybe it has something to do with YW's mental condition that's why he was forced by them to have a consultation. Maybe him being proven to have a mental condition will deem him not fit to be able to pay for his Gran's nursing expenses so that's that.
ML's current living condition.
His parent's occupation wasn't told in the novel/here but from what I kinda researched it's kinda possible that he'll be able to live comfortably for many many years after his parent's death.
SW(ML) lifestyle weren't well of at first, they lived in a simple apt in Seoul. It wasn't told whether his mom remarried (current stepdad) when they lived there but he said they had a lifestyle change which resulted them in living in a much larger house (where they live now).
The accident which led to their death actually is a big damage compesation claim (for the truck company). For his dad's case alone, aside from damages itself where it can amount to tens to millions of damages, You can also include financial damages where it can be computed as monthly salary (outside taxes) multiply it to possible living period that they can work. His stepdad may be getting more as they are well off, so let's say like a manager's wage (let's estimate it as yearly wage so it's easier) like 80Mwon/year times 15 years- let's say his dad's about 50yrs old and perfectly healthy can work until retirement. That's abt 1.2B won. Even if he gets at least 1B won, I saw some clauses about additional damages that should be paid, specially for the bereaved family and other things like ofc the car has to be paid off. Ntm, his dad wasn't the only ones who died. His mom, though I don't think she's working died too and him though survived needs to be compensated too including all his medical and rehab needs. If psychological trauma is also a result then another compensation as well. So let's say just say like if they just settled, and for all of them 3 in the accident they gott at least about 1-1.5Bwon compensation, that alone could probably cover SW's including YW's (SW asked YW to live with him in the future and encouraged him to go to the university with him and he pays for it too) living and studying expenses. 8-10M yearly expenses - dorm not included coz they both go home, multiplied by minimum of 4 years times for the 2 of them that's about 64-80Mwon
There also is the insurance money which is impossible that they don't have as most Koreans have this so 2x insurance. If SW is also insured, he would also be getting insurance claims for probably, rehab, and etc.
Though this may not cover like their long time living expenses, but it is more than possible his dad also has his personal savings. SW and YW is also not the type to spend lavishly on things. The only big expense SW was told in the story was when he purchased a car for both of them about 50-100M won. They also don't need to pay for rent coz SW has their family home. Living conditions in Korea is expensive mainly coz rent is expensive. Even if he has to pay property taxes, that could cover as a basic monthly rent which wouldnt hurt as much.. Also YW is not the type to spend things lavishly. My other theory is that his stepdad have his own business/maybe a family business that's why he maybe receives money still.
I also forgot, YW was hospitalised for a long time due to his self harm, but he may be covered by NHI system which also aids medical expenses for all citizens. Even if it was due to self harm, he was assessed previously to have high level of depression which can be given grant due to his mental disability.
In summary, though it's a stretch, there should be a possibility of SW living comfortably with YW for a few years until they (or maybe just SW) can earn from working. SW accident happened in December, then YW's self harm happened in August, was discharged about either Nov or December? Gran's nursing home expenses is no longer paid by them. SW probably shells out a little for extra of Grans needs.
So if SW got a maximum of 2B won from damages, personal insurace, personal savings, that should be enough for the 2 of them to live comfortably within the next 10 and averagely within the next 15years.
Is this chapter broken? Im stuck at page 16 and no matter how much I scroll I keep coming back to that page (▰˘◡˘▰)
Omg maybe So-yi is hiding from her parents that she and Bin are close!
Also, she does look always on the edge to be the best. Maybe she's pressured bec of her adoptive daughter status and also her hiding she's friends with Bin. JUST MAYBE
Pi Bada being a CE makes me believe it's possible he is one of the game devs.
Also, more hairstyles? Damn I wanna see him wearing a headband!!

Raika doesnt have a step bro complex. ML did a lot if bad things with company of others and when he got straight laced he just devoted himself to the family. So when she saw him being with Kiri all the time she got anxious that his brother will go back to his ways again and will ruin the family relationship. After all, for sure she saw Kiri's background in the internet since he's well known and also saw his current reputation which isnt good. She probably doesnt like him bec of that and also her first impression of hin isnt good either. Seeing both of them shirtless sleeping together? If you are in her situation, though you may not do the same thing but for sure you will get ansty seeing a guy like Kiri hanging out with your brother.
I really dont remember reading ch29 in the novel, so I'm not sure whether this manwha will follow the novel. Also I read this like way back in MTL so I will do my best to write as many as I can remember.
Yeonwoo (uke) - YW
Seongwoon (seme) SW
Granny - Gran
- I think after this chapter, this is the time where YW will wake up in the at dawn to find out Gran is not besode him. He panicked and called SW to ask for help. They looked everywhere only to find Gran in the market. Gran said he wants to buy YW a cake- YW remembered it was Gran's memory of his 8th bday, where all his friends went to his house and said his house smells and criticised the food that was spread.
- When he received his 1st paycheck he asked church head for help to put Gran in a nursing home which costs 75% of his paycheck. When he told SW abt this, YW said he can just help him until he sends gran to the nursing home. SW thought YW was being selfish. I remember he just said that bec when Gran will be sent to the nursing home, he will have no purpose going to YW's house and he will be alone in his house again.
- After sending gran to the nursing home they drank at SW's place. they reconciled abt their prev misunderstanding and SW said he still couldnt believe he dated him. He also said he is not sure whether his memories will still come back. He asked YW to continue just being friends with him- like a subtle way of saying to forget their relationship/not to get his hopes up. Deep inside SW felt hurt when YW answered "Is that ok?" , then he cried his heart out in the bathroom when he excused himself
- The bully made another comeback. The owner just told YW of possibly rejecting YW's requests for overtime coz business is not good these days. When the owner went out and the manager was left behind, the bully came in the store and asked YW if he's working there. YW begged the bully not to tell the owner abt YW almost hitting him with a brick, (So basically he learned that the bully is relatives with the owner coz the manager talked to the bully and called the manager hyung) He asked YW to go to an address after his shift. The address was a store the bully forced YW to get a phone plan. I'm not sure how much it costs but this means YW wouldnt almost have anything left from his salary. Btw the bully threw something at YW's face so YW got no choice but to sign up.
- Since SW is the only number he knows, he contacted SW using the new phone and he was excited to learn he got one so he wanted to go to YW's place to teach him how to use it. YW rememberd his face was wounded and swollen so he stopped SW from coming and made excuses of being tired. But when SW arrived, he became suspish of YW being fidgety and there he found his bruised face. SW was so angry insisting YW to tell what happened. At first he thought it was the boss but even after YW making excuses he put 2 and 2 together and figured it was the bully.but he was suspish and put things together and learned about what the bully. YW begged for SW not to do anything, there was drama. SW kept on apologising to YW and asked him later why he shouldnt do anything. He said it was bec the boss is the bully's aunt and he might lose his job and not be able to pay for Gran's nursing bills. The next day he went to the pizza place until he clocked out, afterwards, he told SW abt his life being bullie after the bday incident. It's so heartbreaking I can no longer continue, but that's the reson why YW wish is to only die after his Gran, how he was thankful he had his first friend in 3rd yr in highschool even if he lied abt where he live and what kind of life he had, Then he said he would never hate him and that he finally can empty his heart
- Scenes in between where they visited Gran in the nursing home and visited SW's parents grave where they saw the photos in SW's phone where full of YW.
- Next days SW kept on going to YW's workplace where YW felt uneasy bec the owner and the manager liked SW and always laughing when talking to him. He's also suspish on why SW always go there. Then the bully called YW angrily asking him to go to the store. SW eavesdropping at the phone call. SW went with YW at the store. Although YW was so desperate begging SW to not do anything, it was a satisfying moment coz he beat up the bully. He was portrayed like a different person. This was my fave part actually. He even asked YW to hit the bully, which he did.
- After this SW suggested to quit his job at the pizza place. SW will be paying the nursing expenses and in turn he will report to SW's house to study together. IT's like his work but he will study there so that he can go to college. The money paid for gran is like a loan which he can pay off later after college and when he is already working.
- Moments of YW and SW then SW asked YW to meet his friend (who is from Seoul). They had fun together but later YW found out that SW didnt tell the friend what happened to his parents. That night he woke up to seeing SW watching a video of his parents and he was crying later on he got sick,
- After they went on a trip, SW ended up confessing to YW but YW didn't want it. He kept saying they should just stay as friends. When SW insisted on knowing the real reason for YW to reject him bec he kept on changing the subject, YW said he dont want that confession with a different emotion. To him SW's feelings was out of the premise that they were in a relationship. It was like if that premise wasnt there SW wouldnt fall in love with YW. I think it was something about just him being carried away coz he knew he liked YW in the past. IF he didn't know that fact, would SW still like him? SW brushed off this reason. For him the past wasnt important and they could just create new memories but YW got hurt more coz it was like SW just brushed off the past that was very special to him. YW holed up to his house only crying and being depressed. A week after a letter came from SW saying wishing he would be happy and that he is now letting go of him.
This was so heartbreaking istg. I rmember the lines were so superb couldnt stop crying.
- YW felt relieved when the counselor said they will cover his Grans nursing expenses for about 1-3 yrs. He visited Gran to celebrate her birthday and when he went home he packed all things that was impt to him. Then he took all the prescribed pills for him in one go. (he was taken to a psychiatrist by the counselor and was diagnosed with high risk depression) He committed suicide and leaving a will to take care of a bag with all his belongings.
I'll continue the story in my reply.
Please I hope the bald guy wont be possessed by Shingoe and just change to take care or Muwhan. Btw, am I trippin or the person in Muwhan's reminiscing (probs Baekyeo's mum) looks like a guy?
Look, I do think Clara is adorbs but, I really wanna get the story going.
Im sorry but Im lmao the entire chapter coz idk JK is a scary person for others perhaps but in this chapter he's just so dense af lol. The way he's desperately going down on KD just bec "he wants to prove a point" haha omg if it was me no matter how angry I am I might burst out laughing bec of the stupid look on his face
Just an unsolicited suggestion, if you're not a fan of reading or don't have that much time, you can listen to the LN narration in YT. It has eng subs and visuals (Visuals disclaimer: not all are from the official LN, they just put it so that you dont stare at a still screen). I'll put in the channel here if anyone wantd to know.
It is worth the wait. I don't understand Korean but I was smiling reading through the MTLs. Their journey before becoming a couple was a process but it's cute and not so heavy. I think the only kinda boring part for me was backstory of the pig tailed girl how she became friends with the MC and eventually liked him. It was good but kinda too long for me.
