SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!
So, I have read the comments about this manhwa earlier and everyone is rightfully angry BUT I suggest you to wait for some time, let this manhwa "marinate" for a while and come back, you'll be in for a heartbreak drama treat!!!! SPOILERS BELOW!!! *READ THIS IF YOU ARE SOOO CURIOUS*
The original's all in Korean and I dont know the language but I got the gist of it
After the 24th chapter, Wooyoung forces himself on to Seondo and does it, Seondo cries and shouts in anger, Wooyoung feels guilty and leaves, come morning they discuss something about news article and soon thry chat over vlog and production and both goes to studio for shoot, there they meet with Gyusung and well they lock horns and Wooyoung drags Seondo into a lounge room, there they quibble and Wooyoung acts like an ass that he is and makes Seondo to kiss him and forces him to give oral, after that Wooyong runs into Gyusung and Gyusung tells him not to push Seondo too much else he'll lose him (along the lines ig, sounded more like warning/advice based on vibes), soon its Seondo's birthday and both celebrate in Wooyoung's house, Wooyoung gives him camera as a gift and both hangs out and chat for a while and Wooyoung gets a cell and he goes to the club, soon Seondo calls him frantically because the paparazzi who was tailing Wooyoung got pics of Woo and Seo together multiple times and published it as "secret gay lover" story which also (possibly) included Seo's details, Woo is blissfully oblivious but the people who were with him in club started to read this article and started talking about him and Woo obviously learned about it too, so he calls Seo and rushed to home, only to find him cleared up the room and went to his Granny and left their childhood pics, So Woo rushes to Seo's granny's home and granny well tells him something like Seo is sick, dont come here, he's not feeling well (the raws are in Korean and available solns for translations SUCKSS!!!), Woo is obviously sad about it, he tries to reach out to Seo (His house was filthy as f and he's drinking!!) but to no avail, CEO Song contacted Woo about this scandal and they obviously planning up how to cover and counter this and she earlier contacted Seo about this scandal and it looked like she was furious about this incident and blamed him for not keeping Woo in check and instead got himself involved in this scandal, this obvi pushed Seo to edge, that's why he left, cue flashback...
When Woo was a HS, he went to a exclusive club with someone (we all know what sort of club it would be) there he saw a senior exec/actor forcing himself on a young guy who was obvi uncomfortable about it, Woo was disgusted (Oh the Irony, he became what he repulsed!!) and in Seo's house he had that same imagery but with Seo and he hated it and then he saw the image of himself in Seo's bookshelf with something written on it (possibly romantic cuz Seo had crush on Woo) and that made awkward between them, Woo already had some weird rumour going around him due to his Actor thing or he's in a bad crowd, Woo tries to act normally but Seo is well acting on edge, (from this forward, things felt a bit murky but i'll try to explain a bit) one of the classmates talked to Woo about * something * that kinda changed things, Woo met with Seo and they talked about the crush thing, i dont know how to explain it but it felt like Woo must have talked harsh and Seo was heartbroken and felt insulted and he cried. They both are childhood friends and stuck with one another, Woo didnt like anyone approaching Seo and one time in soccer practice Woo saw Seo talking with another classmate and he immediately pulled him away, suddenly Woo wakes up, he mumbled to himself about this dream/flashback being shitty, he recieves a call and he's suddenly rushes to Seo's granny's house, Granny tells about something by the lines of "he's depressed" and he knocks on Seo's room, Seo opens and they well talk, Woo is asking him to come back, Seo refuses and Woo must have said like you liked it, and Seo is obvi angry and he tells something like "regret meeting you" and Woo is pulls him and Seo pulls away and Woo being a dog forcefully kisses him and Seo SLAPS him! (ik shocker, finally he grew a spine) and scolds him and goes back to his room, he washes up and read about Woo's article Gyu contacts him and asks him to be his photographer and both are in studio and taking photoshoots and soon both are in a restaurant and both are talking and Seo started crying and Gyu sits closer to him and comforts him soon he calmed down and they were eating just then Woo walks in with some people and Seo felt chills and act nervous, the other people must have talked something shitty, anyways Seo goes to washroom and refreshes and runs into Woo, Woo wants to have discussion and wants him to attend his calls and messages and Seo ignores and argument ensues about Seo's "love life" (educated guess, could be wrong) and how he's sticking with Gyu and askes him to stay with him and not seek out, Seo curses him out and walks to washroom exit but then Woo pulled him by this hair and S Assaulted him, Gyu who was looking for Seo saw this scene and was horrified, after having his way, Woo finally got his head cleared out saw what he had done to Seo, Seo laying there motionless with tears, Woo saw his consequence of his actions, cue the next day, he was laying down depressed and drunk regretting his action, his assault on Seo and his cries are now starting to eat Woo's mind, Seo's cries and his pain-filled words kept playing on his mind, He wanted to be close to Seo but he destroyed it (Duh! You dumb dickass shit for brains), Woo goes to production company and runs into Gyu and they lock horns, Gyu must have told him about Woo's actions in a jabful manner and that must have hit a nerve cuz Woo is shaken, Woo realized his weight of his actions and what he did to Seo is nothing short of crime, CEO song is scolding Woo about his affair scandal and Woo apologizes and ask her to help him fix it and she (suprise, suprise) reveals that it was the same paps who write trashy articles about Woo! Seo meanwhile was getting unsolicited pics and many people are messaging him for hookup and sex and hurtful stuff (it's all because of the paps, Seo even received a lot of older guys unsolicited pics eww... those dirty fat bastards) this took a toll on Seo's mental state and Gyu calls him to comfort him and they decided to have another shoot and they both chitchatting about things, Woo (he also came for shoot) saw this and he regrets this, Seo used to only work with him but because of his actions, Seo pushed him away, Woo walks up to Seo and greets him, Seo is shaken and he's trying to hide fear, Woo asks for his forgiveness and wantes to talk, Gyu saw this and immediately shielded Seo and told Woo to stay away (Gyusung my knight in shining armour!!!, btw from now on, Woo is going to suffer a lot!!!) Woo goes to a bar and drink and drunkenly blabbers about his regret and tells about it to bartender and he drunk calls Seo and simply started blabbering about his regret of what he done to Seo and simply wanted to apologize and start anew, and got drunk, Bartender noticed that Seo is on line and tells him to come get his friend (and yeah, seo also listened Woo's words), Seo picks him up and drives to Woo's home, Woo is welling up and asks for his forgiveness or may have asked whether it was him, and Seo must have told him to shut up, Woo askes him to stay and offered him something to drink, Seo declined and tries to leave but Woo pleads with him and says sorry and that he only wanted to be close with him and Seo must have told that people dont treat someone who they like in the way Woo treated him and walks away, Seo and Gyu were talking about Woo (i guess so) and Gyu may have said that he's interested in Seo and they go to bar, chatting and drinking and Seo git drunk, so Gyu picks him up and goes to room, Gyu is tempted by Seo's disheveled look but held himself (Yas! A Gentleman, unlike someone who R-A-P-E-D a SLEEPING PERSON!!!!) but in a drunken move, Seo kisses Gyu and they started making out but he stopped cuz Seo mumbled Woo's name (and he saw Gyu as Woo too, tbh he still have unresolved feelings about Woo but still hates him and btw he's hopelessly defenseless, its a good thing Gyu stopped himself, maybe he's a gentleman or he doesnt want to inflict the pain Woo did on him) and calls Woo to pick him up and Woo comes to pick up Seo, Gyu is angry that despite everything Woo did to Seo, he still calls him and he wished that he took Seo away from him earlier (again educated guess) Woo's mind is full of Seo's cries and his pleading to stop (btw Woo is in physically worse shape with dark circles and menatllly exhausted) and leaves, Seo wakes up to see Woo and immediately starts to cry and pull away from him and starts checking himself (poor Seo, btw i just want to remind you guys that if you are victim of such things, dont blame yourself, be strong, find support, it's them who are to blame) and Woo starts crying (it was sooo satisfying actually, and from here on out, he'll become crybaby) and asks for his forgiveness and admits his wrongdoings and realized his feelings and asks for his approval to start fresh (ugh i know) and Seo walks away, Woo is pleading with tears, sobbing actually (YES! CRY BITCH CRY!!!) and Seo must have told something like not wanting to involve with him and his love for him burned away long ago and left him alone in that hotel room (SEO FINALLY STARTED TO HEAL!!!), next day Seo is lounging with his granny eathing Persimmons while Woo is sitting in darkness, depressed and drunk watches the vlog made by Seo and remembering the time they both sat behind the sports equipment room reading comics and goofing around, he stumbles into Seo's room (in Woo's house people! it looks like he must have starved himself) and goes to his old HS and reminisce about his High school time and suddenly he collapses, his collapse made into news and Seo learned about it while watching TV with his granny and he went to visit him in hospital (Even when he was hurt, he still visited his "friend" who hurt him, he truly is a good guy) and he talked to himself about longing for him even though he hates him and leaves, Woo wakes up and goes to home, Gyu meets up and talked about his health (he must have collapsed due to exhaustion, too bad its not something more serious like ulcers or something) and Gyu PUNCHES Woo in his face (YEAH!!! still he could have beat him up a lil more, loved that oh well) and told him to get himself together (something along this lines) and forget Seo as he's already wounded by him, Woo makes a call to fix his reputation or something like that and wanted to fix up his image properly, Seo meanwhile simply enjoying his time with his Granny, sometime later Seo started working with a lot of models and actors for shoots and was preparing a shoot with Actor A (i just named like this, cuz I dont know korean nor I have mental strength to translate long as sentences) later on, he reads an article about Woo and his comeback and his model adverts are all over the city, Seo is attracted to his pic and reminised the past and simply told himself this seperation is best, Seo got invited to fancy ass party and he came as Actor A's companion and he saw Woo chatting up with a good looing actress and accidentally bumps into another guy and spills champagne on his suit, that guy was angry and Seo immediately offers to cleam up but then that guy starts to act sleazily and gropes Seo (UGH, our Seo cant catch a break) he shot a glance at Woo who turned away first (it'll makes sense why) and soon walks towards them and defends Seo and scolds that guy for his actions people are talking about his sleaziness and he immediately backed down, cue another flashback, Woo is now rebuilding his image and is serious about his work and when walking with staff member noticed the lounge in the studio, he suddenly remembered how he forced himself in Seo in that very room and starts crying, and in the party Woo too noticed Seo and avoided him as he's still guilty about his actions (Guess he's turning a new leaf now) but once he saw Seo's in trouble, he immediately rushed towars him, later on bith were outside talking and Woo is sobbing and telling Seo how he regrets his actions and he'll stay away from him but he also wants Seo to no longer be hurt or insulted anyone (educated guess guys), Seo welled up and hugs him and comforts him (i know, bl trope but its somewhat better than others and i told you guys how Woo becomes crybaby, honestly him crying and acting like a puppy kinda suited him, love me a cute big puppy guys, but lets not forget his actions tho), Woo drops Seo at his home and Seo invites Woo, Woo is hesitant at first but at insistence went in. Woo and Seo were sitting at veranda chitchattinng and eating fruits and finally talking about their feelings, their worries and such (Communication people! Had they properly communicated, none of the heartbreak is needed but then again it's hard to communicate such things especially romance and crush and stuff so i get it and it's also the hallmark of all romance tropes whether its bl/gl/or straight) and both went into room to turn in (for the night to sleep like zzz not snu snu) but suddenly Seo initiated a kiss (guess we're back to snu snu, i rlly didnt like it, i honestly just wanted them to resolve their issues and make a clean break oh well) Woo asks for Seo's permission and they make out, Woo is now gentle with Seo and does things but he checks him with Seo to make sure he's okay and Seo's like its fine (this is necessary to tell people how he now treats Seo compared to earlier chapters and no I'm NOT going to go into depth about how they did it) morning comes and they were snuggling and Woo is now treating Seo better and when Seo falls down and unable to get up, Woo immediately apologizes and helps him out, Seo is like its okay dont worry and soon they have breakfast and just chitchatting, Woo cries and tells that he doesnt deserve Seo's affection and kindness and worries that he'll hurt Seo (*Gasp* shocked!! I KNOW!!!) and Seo comforts him, soon they go to their old high school and talked about their past and stuff and hugged each other, dated and happily lived after
Thats all the story
I kinda loved how the story ended and I really loved how Wooyong suffered and I really wanted them to make a clean break but it seems like the trope of two main characters end up togther seems inevitable but unlike other story, it clearly showed the growth of Wooyoung and how his actions hurt Seo
CEO Song lashing out on Seondo is kinda painful but then again her priority is Wooyoung (cuz he's the star person in the talent agency) so I dont blame her and I really hope Gyusung finds himself a new love cuz he seems to be a great guy and I really wanted Seondo to end up with Gyusung and Wooyoung either withers away or simply distance himself from them but then again, the bl cliche hits us!!
This is my first time posting things in this website (I dont comment or post on internet anywhere) but I was kinda intrigued by this manhwa and I'm a sucker for heartbreaks and drama and angst so...I decided to read the Korean raws, though i didnt understand anything, I grasped the concept and understood what they were planning to convey so yeah...I know this is a long ass post but just wanted to share!!!
As someone adopted and with 2 siblings I don't s÷e whats wrong with step siblings getting together especially if they first met with 2 adults. The only time I find it weird is if they were raised together. That's a bit weird.
Am I tripping swear this is already out somewhere with more chapters not complaining bc I love the re read but I think the full volume 2 was out somewhere on here
This shit got me stressed. There ain't no breaks in this manhwa like atp I don't even think there is a good endjng after this. The author might go with the everyone dies storyline bc that's what it looks going forward.
Did a man write this? I noticed the women that are supposed to be geniuses or powerful tend to be moody, childish, and unreasonable when they are. Like playful attitudes, childish behaviors? Fine, funny even…Childish mindset that is hypocritical and makes no sense? Annoying. It makes no sense for her to act this way when he helped her through his lectures etc. In fact it's a bonus. Now, he can actually view her magic and give her pointers to help her grow. It's an advantage to get private lessons by someone you attend lectures for. If she was smart she'd be more than happy to let him join even if he's not that talented in tangible magic. It's like have a professional coach who retired and is passed their prime. He has the knowledge to give her pointers so of course she should have been more than happy to have him join even if it's on the sidelines.
And if someone were to try to say that her actions are justifiable bc he acted like a talentless bumb all his life, it's obvious he's changed since well he is HOLDING FUCKING LECTURES that masters or higher level mages are attending, Like what? And if a higher up sent him with her, they obviously know 'they" can handle it. So her logic should be to trust the higher ups who know better and have more experience. The only thoughts I'd have were "Is he going to be okay" and "Is he going to slow me down" which I would keep to myself until his life was in danger. From there I'd Tell him to stand to the side and cover me the best that he can. That's why I think for a genius or someone talented her logic is dumb, socially, emotionally, and logically.
I hate when authors do this bc and I'm speaking for all women characters like this bc this isn't a tangible women bc this is simply not our experience: for a woman who is supposed to be, for her gender, used to being looked down on before showing her true prowress she should be more socially aware that what she is doing is the same and to keep it to herself until she actually sees his talents. I mean comparitively to males she should emotionally more aware of what not to say. And I say this bc it's obvious that they are still living in a patriarchal setting that treat women the same as this world with how many male characters are in higher positions to women. So socially she should be more observant in judging him first without seeing for herself what he can do.
MOREEEEEEEEE!!! When's the next volume I won't take "completed" as an answer
ATP I'm convinced the reason the artists and authors have more girls in this is bc it's more fun to draw them and find it difficult to draw men. Bc there's no need for so many new characters and the majority of them to be women
I'm stan and I was wrong!!! I'm singing the Stan wrong song!!! I shouldn't have take that chance so here's my remorseful dance!!! Holy foosball wtf blackflagggggg!!!!! RUNNNNN BITCH RUNNNNNNNNN
Oh wow, I was excited to read the comments because I had a blast reading this! It had me smiling and laughing to myself. I love how cringe the seme is and how perfectly the uke handles his high-maintenance persona and all his jokes. The uke to me felt realistic; I had pretty much the same reactions.
I was so dissapointed by the comments. Maybe it's just because I've actually met men like the seme (cough my dad)— arrogant, strong-minded, and funny. But I was dissapointed by how much they hate him. I guess its because I'm used to it but it seems like a lot of people haven't encountered someone who talks and jokes like that, so they're not . Like to me is meant to make their partners laugh and isn't anything to take too seriously.
Honestly, it's just a bit of a letdown seeing everyone trash it, calling it "soulless," "no plot," and all that. It really feels like a lot of y'all only see drama, thrillers, and psychological stuff as "plot-driven" and just completely skip over romance as something that can have an interesting plot or even just the mean genre and not sub genre in a story.
I can't with these comments! It makes me realize we are all the age here
Lowkey I wouldn't call him a black flag I really think this seme feels like he has no choice bc he doesn't know better. Bro was legit crying while doing that. He obviously cares so someone must be telling him this is the only way and it has to be done. Like I feel like a lot of his "crew" are bigo manipulators who knows he doesn't know any better and takes advantage of that, his strength, and his frame
First yuri this month that I read that was finger licking good. And read front to back. Its hella toxic pulled some hairs out fs and the age gap is terrible but 10/10 exactly what I was looking for sex scenes yum plot yum art yum overall wouldn't recommend but definitely treasure with all my heart and gatekeep
They're not taking this as serious as it needs to be. I swear I stress everytime they do it
Bwahaha I fucking love Huimin 21 year old. I love characters like this. That bulldoze through stubborn and toxic fellows. I love when they are sunny strong minded and know their power! This is like a breath of fresh air from all the toxic bls I read. We love communication!!! Even if it only one side conscents to it and the other is forced to talk and speak their mind kek. Love it! 10/10
