Everybody hated on Jiho because he was ungrateful, but to be honest, I'd say the things he did were trivial compared to Lee Tae Sung (aka Logan Lee). Srsly I'm SO FKING ANGRY RIGHT NOW! Hyung Suk put SOO much effort in running away and starting a new and better life for himself...only to have this annoying asshole bully and take advantage of him again. DAMMIT JUST LEAVE HIM THE FK ALONE!!! Why does he have to bother others, like srsly!!! Jiho might have tried to show off and gotten himself in trouble, but he would never have bullied others like that. I never wished Jiho dead as annoying as he is, but I wouldn't mind if Logan died.
Theyre selfish, and an asshole for a different reason, dont compare Jiho to Lee since theyre completely different people. But theyre equally mainulative, just in a different aspect of how they do it.
Both can't be compared. One is at the top of the food chain. Arrogant and self centred. Another is a wannabe with low self confidence and a lot of hubris.
But, Personally I find Jiho worse than Logan. Logan was a bully from the start. He was hateful from the start..but Jiho was a friend. Both have different reasons to act how they do. And I understand both of them. But, as a reader, I felt more betrayed by Jiho and what he did to Daniel.
I'm actually compelled to believe that this is more than just a case of teen dad. I've felt for the longest time that some of the "background" characters in this manhwa actually have secrets of their own. For example, Jae Yeol being the equivalent of Batman who owns a lot of money and secretly has a motorcycle and the Beauty dept guy (Eli) who "Disappears after school without a trace" who refuses to give anyone his contact info. Also, THIS keeps popping up in my mind:

Notice how it said "story about the three of us" implies that they are tied in some way. It could just mean that Hyung Suk has competition with his love for Crystal, but I wonder if this was hinting that al three of them are tied together because they might have different bodies. Hyung Suk and Crystal have a beautiful and ugly body whereas Eli might have...maybe another body as well but maybe his REAL body is actually an adult? That would explain why the baby is his daughter. Like Hyung Suk, he could have woken up in a different body that is actually a higher schooler's except the transformation could be permanent. He could have been a single parent taking care of his child. I assume he avoids telling anyone since it would come as a shock if they knew he has a child.
BUT...and here comes a big guess from me...WHAT IF THE BABY IS ACTUALLY THIS WOMAN??? http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/lookism/bt/cbe0029ee2e1c116/Ch79/pg-20/
What if they BOTH have different bodies. Their original body being an adult's but she had shrunk as a toddler and he, as a high schooler?
This story is just full of surpises!
I upvoted because of the effort you made for this and ....you just blew my mind (⊙…⊙ )
Please update! Btw does anyone know where I can read raws, if there's any?
Hot damn the art is AMAZING! could you imagine if it was also in color too? And the story telling was great! I wish this was a series. oh well ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Throughout the day, I keep going back to mangago on my phone nearly every half hour to check out the picture of He Tian holding Mo close and groping him. Prob my favorite Mo X Tian moment in this manhwa.
I think I'm suffering from TianShanitis (￣∇￣")
Fortunately, something like that might actually happen since Jian Yi sent He Tian the audio recording. I'm gonna remain hopeful!!
On a not so happy note, it could be me, but I wonder if Mo was somehow sexually assaulted in the past. He seems to overreact to strangest things like Sharing drinks/eating utensils. I mean, I get it can be gross, but I feel like he makes a big deal out of it. What about him having tears in his eyes when He Tian first kisses him? I'm trying to imagine if I were to cry in that situation if my first kiss was from someone from the same gender at that age and so suddenly like that. Would I act the same as Mo? What I'm trying to say is, was Mo having tears because it brought back unpleasant memories of some kind (like he might have been sexually assaulted before)? Technically, He Tian DID sexually molest him, so Mo's behavior is justified. I guess we'll have to find out further on in the story. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Yeah, I think his reactions go far beyond typical homophobic high school boy.
Something tells me we're going to be fangirling hard for She Li as well. If I recall, when we were first introduced to Mo, there was a lot of hate towards him because he'd injured Zheng Xi and tried to beat up Jian Yi. Where are they now? Friends (for the most part) and now everybody including me, is shipping him with He Tian and sympathizing with him since we know his full story.
For all we know, She Li might be given his own back story and we know for certain he's not entirely straight since he has made some subtle passes at Jian Yi. Since this is shonen ai and She Li is depicted as not really straight, it would seem like a waste to not make a story about him either. Truthfully, I'm not so sure what the reception with She Li could be since he has done much more bad/harm than He Tian and Mo combined. He's tried to frame and blackmail Mo, stab He Tian with a needle, and cover up a sexual abuse scandal for his brother. I'm not quite sure if he can be redeemed enough to have his own backstory and have us root for him yet. Oh well, let's just wait and see. If not, then I guess it would make sense since the cover of 19 Days shows only Mo, He Tian, Zheng Xi, and Jian Yi together which make them main characters.
The artist draws the characters SO BEAUTIFUL AND GORGEOUS!! I LOVE IT! The cover art was what really drew me in here.ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
oh yeah, and did I mention go back to your old school? Cause no one wants you here!!! 凸(╬￣皿￣)凸
