Idk what to say about the first couple honestly, the concept was good but 30 chapters weren't enough, it felt like the author wanted to make the story deep but adding so much smut, ending each chapter abruptly, not describing inner thoughts of both of them as detailed and varied? As in all the bottom kept saying throughout the whole story was that he has nightmares and that he loves hyung like come on give him some more personality, thoughts?! Anything, but no!! He keeps repeating the same shit and it adds nothing to the story. Anyways all of these stuff made the story shallow and confusing. Its like the author wanted us the read between the lines but rather than lines there were just few words thrown together, not sure if it makes sense but yeah.
I absolutely enjoyed the second couple's story and it was just perfectly cute over all, 10/10 for them <33
Overall story isn't really worth the read cuz you keep expecting a climax but there really isn't one that's shocking enough considering the heavy plot, its just a reused shock factor and there's nothing new.
I will say tho, there was one good connecting the dots moment, which was when at the start of the story we see the top killing a butterfly in his hands and the bottom is disgusted by it but at the end, we see something similar happen (won't spoil it), so that was interesting.
I'm just glad the writer is aware that this isn't upto par and that they could've done better, too bad their contract or whatever held them back.
Just the fact that the writer wanted it to have a happy ending is enough for me to accept that Jaekyung had a happy ending regardless of what was shown in the last chapter.
The concept was really nice but 31 chapters aren't enough to cover all of it, the writer themselves knew it was rushed, which honestly surprised me, for them to accept that, i mean writers are usually self depreciating in author's note but for them to be aware of their work's exact short comings is a bit surprising. Its good but i hope they aren't too critical of themselves cause at the end of the day, they had the courage to create a story and express and be a voice for so many students out there.
I'm babbling bullshit probably but that's cause I'm too much in my feels cause the story felt relatable.
wouldn't say worth the read tho cause it leaves you feeling unsatisfied and I'm not even talking about the ending but the various plot holes.
┐(￣ヘ￣)┌
how do I even begin writing down my review on this when I'm so overwhelmed with my joy of having read this beautiful story!!! T^T
I swear to god, bwat never misses. This is the second story I read of theirs and it's even better than the last one. It shows their writing as well as art development.
From the character designs, to the smut, to the plot, to the dialogues, all of it was absolutely interesting and incredible.
My favourite part about this story was the connecting the dots element, from the nesting thing being mentioned and then shown, to having made the youngest prince, Alberon, the King. It all fit well.
I absolutely wish it was longer, as a lot of things simply served as MacGuffin, like the relationship of Theo and Seth's mother, the relationship of Agrish and his beloved, the relationship of Alberon and Frera, what happened with Ross Vadez (Frera's younger brother)? What did they mean by the dragon nourishing? Like what happened during the climax, how did Seth's guardian spirits come back? How did he turn back into a human when it seemed like he wasn't gonna make it? Why was Sir Calion obsessed with Theo? What was their childhood like?
I hope some of these, if not all the questions are answered in the side story.
Also AGRISH!!!!! THE REAL MVP!!!! (●♡∀♡)
anyways, would absolutely recommend reading!

In my next life, I hope to either become a snailfish or a boy.
Just to see what it's like.
I am currently writing jingluo fanfiction that makes me cry so hard because I already know the end and it's not good.

more socially awkward semes please!!
Their relationship dynamic was cute and funny, and they talked about stocks!! (つ≧▽≦)つ
It was so cute!! The pacing was nice and their personalities were well written too!
In another life, I hope I'll be a student in Japan, experiencing the highschool sweethearts life.

It's a hunterverse that involves an office worker who is nationally known as the guy who has the worst and best luck due to the amount of hunter and moster based incidents he's been involved in and survived. An example is him being taken hostage by illegal hunters who take over his office space. He remains totally calm, since he's been there, done ......

Age gap scenario to consider : - Party A is a teenager (min. 15 y/o and max. 17 y/o) - Party B is an adult (min. 20 y/o and max. late 20s) just a question i thought of, not my situation in any way, shape or form.

I'm finishing a lot of old stuff so I've got some trash on my front page now cause I'm a completionist and since I didn't drop it like 4 years ago when I started it I gotta finish it now.
I hate: transphobia, homophobia, racism and misogyny. Sexism towards guys is bad too. Please always try to understand people even if they're unreasonable and seem to be awful.
Little rant:
I dislike the fetishization of wlw and mlm. It doesn't matter that it's "just fiction", it still affects the readers, especially young and uneducated ones. No, that " porn does it too", doesn't make it okay. Porn should be realistic as well. I won't kink shame or shame anyone for liking stuff I despise, but you should still acnowledge it for what it is - young people might be reading it and your comments.
Rape isn't okay and it's not sexy. Stalking isn't either. Gay sex needs proper prep and can be dangerous and painful. Condoms are important. Consent is important and it's not okay to keep going if your partner asks you to stop. An anus doesn't get wet, except you're having diarrhea. Shit can come out during anal sex.
Feminine mlm are valid but it's not on women (like me) to decide whether they're the norm or not. It's heteronormative that the pairing is usually a girl with short hair and a dick (this sounds kinda transphobic, sorry. I'm talking about how they write and draw the bottom usually like a girl but then swap the genders) and a buff, strong, rich, good looking, multitalented guy with a big dick. Guess who's always the top? Boring.
Girls are very cute and GL deserves more attention, Yuri smut is just as awful as Yaoi Smut. The women in Yaoi deserve no hate.

another bl manhwa with a similar concept, not exactly d.i.d but close -
Double Trap
https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/double_trap/
This was so good, i hate the fact that it's a oneshot.
After reading the story i checked out author's other works.
I saw Sweet Rendezvous on there and it all clicked together.
OFCOURSE ITS A ONESHOT THIS AUTHOR IS MAKING THIS A HABIT!!! WRITING SUCH GOOD STORES AS ONE SHOTS!!!!!!
(╥﹏╥)
Way better than I expected!? with the recent mass production of short shitty manhwas, its rare to find such good stories where every single thing is focused on so well, from the character's careers to their relationship, it was really perfect for such a short manhwa.
The relationship development and personalities were quite realistic honestly. Leo messed up by taking jj for granted but slowly after realising his mistake he seemed to reflect and learn from it while also keeping his personality consistent. As for J.J., he was kind hearted and did the right thing by breaking up when he realised that he was being walked all over, but after reuniting he stood his ground, was really happy to see that.
I'm not a fan of exes to lovers but I really enjoyed this one, especially the parts where it talked about their careers and stuff.
Nothing was dragged on and it was quiet cute and funny at parts, which I really liked.
Also got to learn quiet some stuff about racing, hope the trope becomes more popular!
overall a good read <3
also if I had a dollar everytime I read a bl with a racer and about breaking up, I'd have 2 dollars, which isn't a lot but its quite the coincidence lol.
