This is what the author said about this chapter on their twitter:
"There’s quite a lot to cover, so I’m only including the absolutely essential scenes. I’m also keeping the dialogue as concise as possible, so please trust me."

I've been obsessing over it like a madman the whole day. It's peakest BL I have read this year. I can't stopthinking about it and and analyzing every inch of every panel. I am mentally ill for both the protagonists. I want more. Somebody help me
This is only the 2nd time Incheol's been to the boxing match but what was different this time round? Boxer man lost both times, but this time henactually tried to defend himself before he met the ground. What was that? Why was that?
He has never bothered before. What is it about Incheol that makes Boxer man look for him. The eye contact was so intense and full of tension. Kind of an unspoken way of conveying "Keep your eyes focused on me". Even at the end of the 1st match, Boxer man looks up to see if Incheol is still watching. Something in the way Boxer man perceives Incheol has drastically shifted between these two matches. Was it the terrible blowjob? Was it the traces of cologne that lingered on his coat? Or the itch to snatch the end of the leash Incheol's collar is tied to from whoever currently has it pulled taut?
On the other hand, Incheol's situation has become abundantly clear to his own self after the bill failed to pass. Whether he manages to make this redev project a successful operation or not - it doesn't matter. Nobody has his back. Not Rep Lee, not Assistant Cha, not his ex Hyori, not anyone. He needs to turn the tables in his favour somehow if he wants to stay in the game. Because otherwise he's gonna be used and disposed by Rep Lee anyhow. Either after this project's done or the next election season.
...and then there's "Gym". I can almost feel the gears churning in his scheming brain, because I bet if there's one thing Incheol has mastered how to do over the years working as a political dog...it's how to survive.
The next chapter is going to be so good, I know it.
havent touched vol. 2 will read when its completed.
It will be based on Sturgeon's law (it's a proverb stating that 90% of a given field/genre/hobby/profession is crap, but you stay for that 10% cause it's worth it) - which is so true for a genre like BL/yaoi. I haven't read a whole lot of yaoi like a lot of other veterans here who've been reading for like 10+ years...but I think I've read enough to make a connoiseur out of me. I've wanted to make a yaoi list for a long time anyway cause I'm a geek who likes to talk about their hobby and nerd out.
I'll be writing detailed reviews where I deem necessary for all the works I add to said list (without spoilers of course), with a mention of all TWs and themes/tropes/dynamics. Cause as much as I like the lists already on here made by you beautiful ppl, I still feel the need for a list specifically for nerds like me who like to read BL not just for the eye candy aspect but also for the underlying themes/motifs and their literary value.
I'll be making two different lists for manhwas and mangas because they're so different (what with them being products of two entirely different cultures) I can't bring myself to compare them.
It's a project that'll take a long time since I'll be re-reading and discovering new works along the way but I kinda wanna indulge myself. Oh, not to mention, the list will only have completed works that I personally liked (cause I know from experience how ongoing works can take a turn for the worse). So almost nothing will be boring/mid/black flag.
So...what say gang? I'll also be taking recs from anyone who's interested in giving their input! It'll be fun me thinks hehe
i understand why joohwan is so smitten with that man. cant wait for them to meet for dinner...and then have dessert
...but the dialogues and internal monologues got wattpad origins. they sound scripted af. it reads like block text written by a 12 year old with unsupervised internet access
I like the art and story, but blondie being such an a grade jerk for no reason. He's nice to his niece and inherently not a bad person but why is he being a dickwad to the brunette dude? Don't you like him, you lunatic? If you got questions, ask him peabrain. Get on them anti-delulu meds bruh you need them. OD if possible.
