So he stayed 6 years with that guy and clung to him and only went back to Yujun when it was obvious his boyfriend treated him like an decoration.
So Yujun is pretty much the backup plan that he considered after 6 years of being treated like shit.
And even then, he was still living with his ex boyfriend....
Like bruh, he dont deserve any abuse but he sure does deserve to not find love. He doesnt even care about Yujun's feelings, he only cares about himself amd doesnt even feel guilty for all the shit he has done.
Seems like the brothers planned this. The ML didnt invite his brother to the wedding but invited him to "entertain" MC. And the brother doing this very openly instead of hiding it.
And ofc the braincells were not invited to this story, how did the MC think this would be better than the ML finding out he tried to take his suppressant ? Mc should know he cant hide anything considering the ML does a physical inspection daily.
Also, even if the dude is blind, he should still hear all this. And even if he was deaf, what about the smell of the pheromones ?
The plot is so stupid it would make more sense if they were a poly couple doing all this as a kink scenario.
Agree with everything but idk if the brother did plan it because the **spoiler, idk if you already saw it**

In one of the later chapters, ML whacks the brother’s head upon catching them in the act in their own shared room (ML and MC). MC had reluctantly agreed cause he was just horny or something, heat too but he was thinking clearly(?). and ML is not blind.
Even though TJ is obviously the one at fault for the state of their relationship, Ian is also responsible for enabling TJ to think only of his himself in their relationship. Because for 20 years Ian has let TJ walk all over him.
Regardless of how bad TJ was, Ian didnt do well to maintain their relationship. He simply took all the hits from TJ instead of actually trying to save their relationship
Ian didn’t have a family and was abused his whole life, TJ had the chance to have a family and he fucked it up. Ian following TJ and never leaving his side is annoying, but I don’t blame him when his whole life he has never had anyone besides TJ.
First kiss, first sex, first love. First family. Ian shouldn’t even have to maintain their relationship, and I do think he tried but who’s the one that had left him by himself time to time? It wasn’t Ian. He craved someone by his side, so he would sleep with another whole TJ was away.
It’s TJ that was away. There is still micro blaming Ian here. Even now in the recent chapters, despite how shitty TJ has been, he has tried to make things better but who’s the one wanting to go back to how things were? TJ.
So I will never understand the “regardless of how bad TJ IS” (not was, he still IS), there should never be a regardless, TJ is THE shit and there’s no regards for him.
It’s not Ian’s obligation to save their relationship. A relationship takes two and the one that kept putting a hold on their relationship was not him. It’s all in the story.
Yea and i totally agree on what you are saying.
****Also I used past tense (was instead of is) because the reason behind this situation is from the past 20 years.
But Ian's behavior was toxic for the relationship too. Because he was unhappy and he gave up on his happiness, and thats toxic for the relationship.
If my life is miserable because of my lover but i stay with him for 20 years without putting clear boundaries to ensure my hapiness. Then i am also responsable for my own misery.
Well he kind of did give up as in he never confronted TJ properly until now and just accepted everything even though it would break him.
My commrnt did focus on Ian because I already thrashed TJ in previous comments and at this point it shouldnt be a debate just how bad he is.
And I did start my comment saying TJ was obviously the one at fault.
Its obviously not Ian's responsibility alone to save their relationship, which is why I said he is ALSO responsible for how bad it got (as in there was someone else responsible aka TJ).
And its not like Ian did anything "bad" in their relationship, but he contributed to the toxicity of the relationship by enabling TJ to act like that without proper consequences.
He did try to talk with TJ. And, it’s not possible for Ian to reach out to someone who closes off and goes away to places. It’s not his job. TJ doesn't do it either, so why the focus on Ian.
No matter what I will always see TJ as the shitty one that doesn’t deserve Ian. It’s not like Ian told him to do those things or put himself in such environment. May I remind you that TJ has had chances to redeem self many times, overly selfish now, and his foster situation which he overlooked.
I think I get your point now, that Ian also just became codependent and let things be, enabling it. I AGREE, don’t get me wrong. However I will never put Ian at the same level as TJ because all this time the one actively trying to label their relationship has been Ian.
It’s not like Ian can do anything to TJ. TJ is the one not listening and walking away. TJ is a grown man, Ian can’t command him. Do you really believe TJ has properly listened to Ian? If he had, TJ wouldn’t be asking to go back to how things were.
And if TJ really cared, he wouldn’t threaten to break his other leg if it could make things go his way (iirc he did threaten Ian with how he will), and it just shows he does not listen. How can Ian change someone like that? That’s expecting too much. That’s like asking an abused victim to stand up to their abuser, and expecting them to be cowardless.
Oh i didnt mean to put Ian at the same level as TJ. That would be wild xD. I honeslty find it annoying and crazy that Ian put up with TJ for 20 years...
And yea, even if Ian did stood his ground and put clear boundaries, TJ might not have listened. But then that would be the moment for Ian to leave, just like he did now.
Standing his ground would either end up with TJ following what Ian wants to do and them having a proper relationship or them breaking up. Either way, Ian wouldnt be in that super toxic relationship anymore.









Its just weird that Jiho liked the thrash guy for 6 years. And only now that its over, he wants to go bsck to Yujun as if he is the only one for him.
If Jiho liked Yujun more than his ex, he wouldnt have been craving for his ex's attention for 6 years.
He’s stated multiple times he hates him by the way
His ex ? If he hated him, he wouldnt have dated him for 6 years. He even said himself that he craved his attention all this time.
And even now, he came back to korea WITH his ex.
Im sorry but this argument is plain stupid,we were constantly shown jihos unhealthy coping mecahnisms such as sh through drugs etc which literally put his life at risk during his life after he left korea.And it was shown very obviously that it was not a a real relationship but an abusive one,you can see very clearly that he does not love him at all and its bc of his mental instability and sh tendencies.Did we really read the same manhwa chapters?
What do you mean it wasnt a real relationship ? It was toxic but it doesnt mean it wasnt real.
And from where do you get the information that the relationship was abusive ? It's possible it was but so far all we know is that as time passed, Jiho kept falling in his ex's priorities. I dont think he mentionned being abused. It wouldnt be a shock if it turned out to be abusive, but so far we dont know (unless i missed somsething).
And yea we can see Jiho doesnt like his ex as of right now. But Jiho himself says the relationship failed because Jiho craved for his ex's attention amd the guy kept prioritizing othet things over Jiho. Meaning Jiho liked him, but his feelings faded through years of neglect. Amd only now that he has finally decided to move on from his ex, only then does he try to get back with Yujun.
Just because Jiho wasnt happy in that relationship, doesnt mean he didnt like the guy.
He literally says he doesn’t like him?? What r u reading ???
Yes as of right now Jiho doesn't like his ex. I do agree on that.
I said Jiho liked his ex. As in the past. The past 6 years they been together
