WOW.

i’m going to refer to pre-skar (all of the events before sasya met lord skar) and post-skar (after sasya met lord skar) in my review.

i had mixed feelings toward sasya pre-skar. coming from a world of nothing, having to fight to survive, i understand him not trusting karel blindly from the get-go and his apprehension. i feel for him, i get it. what i don’t understand is why he could be so indifferent toward karel sometimes despite them being in love and moving in together after karel caught up with sasya sitting at the bench outside the train station. i do think the events that transpired during the time they lived together was because of sasya’s disorder - besides mania (which was said in the later chapters), i do believe sasya had bipolar depression, taking into account his mood swings, inability to sleep, alcoholism, not being able to get out of bed etc. which, paired together with his rough background, let to him being so deeply dependent on karel and adding to his fear of being abandoned.

i understand that sasya was clearly mentally unstable, but it also frustrated me and hurt to see how he pushed away karel. i know i KNOW he wasn’t in a good mental capacity so i shouldn’t be complaining, but it was rough to witness how reciprocal love was coming off as one-sided with karel being hopelessly in love, and sasya made to seem as if he was being forced into it.

karel taking the hit for sasya’s crime, being locked up and forced to serve in the army, holy shit man. but the last thing i expected was sasya to leave karel while the poor guy was suffering with the only thing keeping him going was sasya’s love. that HURT. i really couldnt stand sasya at that point - like i didnt hate him or anything, but goodness me.

post-skar was low-key marvellous. karel still being in love with sasya, but behaving indifferently - giving him the cold shoulder, forcing sasya to feel what he’d felt for years. it was satisfying to see. and karel being a completely scarred up daddy OOOOH LAWD I LOVE ME A SCARRED MAN. HOWEVER, as nice as it was to see karel push back, he pushed back TOO MUCH. yes, sasya was terrible to him in the past every now and then, but that didn’t mean he could use gudin to sexually assault sasya. i haven’t seen anyone else mention this and it’s pissing me off. no because karel got jealous over lies gudin made, blindfolded sasya and almost let gudin almost have his way with sasya - ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT?? i also dislike how he locked sasya up, literally, and then not too long after that, he goes on to say he’s getting married and “bye bye sasya, you needa get a move on with your life” OH THAT HURT. like i see you karel, not only are you doing it for your plan, but you’re also low-key getting revenge for those years sasya hurt you, BUT YOURE ALSO HURTING ME SCAR DADDY. oh and also the piercing, NO NUMBING CREAM, NO WARNING, BRO JUST SHOVED THAT THANG INTO HIS EAR AND HIS NIPPLE I WAS CRINGING AWAY FROM MY SCREEN AND CLUTCHING MY PEARLS I WAS MORTIFIED

anyways, i liked how things wrapped up. low-key, i STILL don’t even understand how karel serving for austria ended up with him being a double agent, and sasya being taken into custody like yes, i grasped everything but idk if it’s just me but like it’s so unclear to me how exactly karel got to that point. i know he was in the army (or whatever the fuck it was), got promoted twenty trillion times, got captured and tortured and was made to choose a new life where he served as a double agent. i just don’t understand exactly why he was so immensely important, yk. and like, lord skar quite literally appeared out of thin air, how come no one questioned him and his nonexistent past further like? idk man, but all that matters is that they got their happy ending.

i do think their story was tragically beautiful, and i hope that the spin-off gets illustrated into side stories, where it’s just pure fluff and happiness with sasya and karel - just domesticity and pureness, and everything they’d wanted for in the past but couldnt have. oh, and them being daddies to cutie pie charles URGHHHH, and have a scene where sasya tells karel why charles is named charles. like ik there was a scene where karel low-key caught onto it, but i’d love to see full-blown confession from sasya, that would be amazing

also, i fucking hate that rat ass bitch miss ramwhateverthefuck. and no, I DONT CARE if anyone has to say she was manipulated by karel, forced into the marriage that NAUR FUCK THAT HOE. i didnt like her at the beginning when she was following karel around like some hopeless puppy and hating on sasya for no reason, bitch you were forced to marry that nasty ass duke/count/whatever the fuck so you out of anyone should know what sasya went through but noooo, you were resenting him for no reason and then wanting to jump karel’s bones and force sasya out of the picture FUCK YOU YOU DUMB STUPID CUNT and then when she was reintroduced later in the story HELL NAUR LET ME THROW HER OFF THE SHIP LET ME FLING THAT HOE TO THE SHARKS

hope my darling levin is happy. didnt expect her and julian to be a thing, i was honestly shipping julian and george from the time george was introduced. like julian and him hadn’t even met ever, but i wanted hashtag georgian to be a thing fr. ALSO GEORGE WHEN HIS HAIR IS NOT SLICKED BACK??? LIKE HE WAS HOT REGARDLESS BUT HAIR DOWN, HUBBA HUBBA IM PREGNANT WITH HIS BABIES

omg okay, here’s the end of my long, blubbering rant, i just needed to get everything off my chest. i love sasya, karel, julian, george, levin, and charles so much. they’re all babies, i hope they all live good lives together MY BABIES I MISS YOU ALREADY

    ur feelings are so valid and thank you for understanding the fucked up mental state of sasya

    also one thing i’ll be grateful for madame rambouillet is how she ensured safe passage for karel

i don’t like the fact that he calls him boy, that’s so weird

    I think it has lost its meaning in translation

    I think it has lost its meaning in translation Willow

    yeah, probably. bc the top also called the father “elder” as well, which doesn’t make sense conversationally so hopefully it was just a mistranslation

keri February 7, 2025 9:27 am

i’m not gonna lie, i love me a possessive man not like toxic abusive possessive, but when they get jealous over little things and mope about it, but keep an arm around your waist/shoulder, face in the neck and leaving hickies GOD DAMN I LOVE THE TOP

well, at least they didn’t have sex during that time
in manhwas like this, you have to take what you can get - raymon groomed winter as a minor, but at least he didn’t fuck him this is so insane lmfao

    heikimi February 7, 2025 8:33 am

    And he did not make him a drug addict like himself.

i love the chibis so much, they’re so cute
and a couple weeks ago, to whoever in this comment section, said that monster mugo would consume jaeheon’s cum for sustenance, good on you for thinking so far ahead

this was so terribly depressing, i cant

it’s such an iffy situation, bc wdym mc fell for his almost brother-in-law?? idk man, i didn’t hate this story but i do have mixed feelings about it. and the timeline, how soon after hoseok passed away, did mc move on with ho-il is what i want to know - the author didn’t specify and it just seemed SO soon, especially when mc and hoseok had been dating for six years, that’s insane. i understand that everyone is different, but moving on so quickly after the love of your life just passed away is so…

i’m glad mc went to england, bc when he and ho-il just started dating, it definitely was bc he needed a replacement for hoseok. and hoseok, oh my god. why did the author have to kill him off. he seems like such a great guy, such a beautiful green flag - if he was abusive or something that would’ve been a whole lot better esp since mc moved onto his ex’s brother.

idk. like i said, i feel so iffy about this whole thing. like yeah, i’m glad mc and ho-il are happy and in love but like

ALSO HELLO MR LATIMMER HMU BAE

    NightOwl26 February 11, 2025 8:02 pm

    I agree. When they kept showing hoseok, it felt more like the story should be about mc and hoseok instead of ho-il. The inclusion of all the flashbacks just made the current couple's situation weirder to me and once again... felt like the story shouldn't have ho-il as the ML. I'm also glad he went to England. I felt like that was the long healing process the mc needed but still feels a little awkward

i’m so tired of this brah

keri February 4, 2025 1:38 pm

the two of them pissed me off individually bc of how stupid, naggish, nonchalant and inconsiderate they could be, but i still love them so much. the ending made me tear up so bad, i feel so emotionally attached to them. wish we could get side stories of them getting married and being able to open with their relationship - it’s so realistic how the homophobia was present in this story and it just saddens me that people still can’t be freely in love, without being ostracised. and i absolutely despise both sets of parents, idc if they eventually came around, don’t have kids if you can’t accept them wholeheartedly. woonwoo and eunyool are so precious to me, i adore them sm as well as soojung, minki, jooah and eunyool’s cutie pie coworkers :)

JAEKYUNG MUST DIE JAEKYUNG MUST DIE JAEKYUNG MUST DIE JAEKYUNG MUST DIE JAEKYUNG MUST DIE JAEKYUNG MUST DIE

so the only good ending to this would be that that rapist piece of shit dies a horrific gruesome death, dan mourns for a while and then gets his life together in all aspects, gets to a good point in his career and is thriving when he meets a sexy, handsome green flag that treats him right from day one and they get married, happily ever after, the end.

    missed opportunity of me fr

keri February 2, 2025 4:14 pm

i honestly have a love-hate relationship towards the ml, which is leaning very heavily towards hate. i can’t stand how he disrespected the mc’s boundaries time and time again, never taking no for an answer and always pushing ahead with what he wants. also, how he took advantage of mc when he was drunk, EXCUSE ME??? and the couple times he gaslights the mc “well you came twice but i didn’t even come once so bear with me” WHAT THE FUCK
i just liked the fact that he was a puppy top and how clingy he was, but he was WAAAAYYY too pushy to like. and waaaayy too sex crazed, give it a fucking break.

and also, i was shipping mc with his ex. i love me a scarred daddy, and i loved his yellow-gold eyes. then he ended up being a piece of shit, so obviously he can die

would love to see a wlw story about the pres, esp w the ml’s sister THEYRE BOTH SO GORGEOUS URGH oh and would love to finally see a story w the friend, hes such a cutie patootie man

    Yeah p much same. I ended up liking Hyowon more in the end, but that beginning made me take a star away. Like the noncon and coercion was bad. And him like continuing to press for sex bc he knows Seohyun will give in is such a manipulative dick move.
