tbh I wish I had her problems
I'm reeeally hoping this is a poly and not just a love triangle
Reading this + Jiwoo's Master (super ultra highly recommended) at the same time is pure bliss. I've never seen such expressive tops before and I'm here for it, chef's kiss
damn at least hand him some toilet paper or something poor dude
(On another, unrelated, note, I am seething with jealously, I would treat him better!!!)
SO I've been researching a lot because I love Greek Mythology. Sisyphus was a king in Ancient Greece whose city looked a lot like "Stillwater Town". Sisyphus's castle was at the very top of the mountain, while everyone else lived in rings circling the top going down (just like in this town). He was incredibly clever, vain, and ruthless - he thought himself to be on the same level as Zeus, and we all know what happens when someone comes for the throne.
Little time skip, but let's just say Sisyphus got in trouble with Zeus, Hades and Persephone for tricking them and skirting death on multiple occasions. In the main part of his myth, he conned Thanatos (basically the Grim Reaper) into chaining himself to a rock, thereby creating a "no more death" type situation. This pissed off Ares, who eventually freed Thanatos and sent Sisyphus to the underworld for Hades to deal with, who punished him to push a boulder up a hill for eternity and enchanting the boulder to roll back down every time it'd reach the top.
There are so many parallels between the Myth of Sisyphus and The Hounds of Sisyphus that it's definitely worth a second read. If you know the myth you'll be able to see all the references to it in the manhwa, like in the beginning when people just stop dying out of nowhere. Then in Chapter 1 we see Guwon's hand as he climbs up from underground, and when we see him taking Jinwoo on a very long hike only to stare at a boulder sitting on top of a mountain in the distance - he says "I just like to come back and make sure it's still there".
The parallels are all really interesting - the only thing I can't quite figure out just yet is the character's memory lapse. I'm sure we'll find out more as we go on! I've got more, but I've already written so much - if you've made it this far thank you for reading!! ヾ(☆▽☆)
Are there any spoilers for this? I've been liking it so far, but I'd hate it if they became toxic or something like that.
I know both of them give lowkey psycho vibes sometimes, but if they match each other's freak I'm staying
What the title says, I want to pick this up after a couple of years and I would like to know how close to the ending it is, or if I should let it marinate a bit more
I remember being in high-school last time I read this... I'm on my 4th year of college AND IT'S STILL GOING??
I remember I loved it though, I just wanna know if it's still worth catching up and waiting for more updates
I don't know who I'm most jealous of: him or her?
the answer is both lol
Atp I'm just reading to see if they give my boy Ian a good romantic interest, he deserves to move on pleaseeee
this is the curse I carry for always loving the second male lead
yeah, I hate him. There's no way around it. And it seems like the author wants to gloss over the redemption arc just because Clodan wants to be a "good dad" now
Dear author please cook another masterpiece for us. I have really high hopes for this couple, they have a lot of potential, I'm dying to see more of these two!!!
"I'm going to return to the past"
GIRL how many times do you wanna live the same life?
Jokes aside, I hope they don't take that route, it somehow feels like cheating lol
picked this back up after dropping at chapter 80 something and I see the slowburn still is slowburning
(I dropped it so I wouldn't have to wait for updates, modern problems require modern solutions)
I really hope the MC turns out to be interesting and has some good lore seems like it's pointing that way though, with the repressed memories and all
LMAAAOOOO
they're really matching each other's freak huh
(￣∇￣")
any links to the LN?? The suspense is killing me I need to keep reading!!!! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
