Reading the comments here is so refreshing. In other pages I read, every time a woman likes one of the main characters people are disgusted, calling them bitches and whatnot, saying "gross, this is a BL" even though they were always good characters. I get it if they're dislikeable and really bad people, but many times they aren't.

I totally agree everyone's respectful to nana's feelings TT and I'd like to add as well maybe it's because of how the author presented nana throughout the story(?) Cause in some cases, there really are authors just adding side characters to elevate the mains or plot but this one feels genuinely like slice of life where everyone's just trying their best yknow

This one's really nicely written! I read others where the female side characters were super nice too, but sadly not too many. Thing is, in the page where I read the raws of this manhwa, the comments were filled with "ugh, I don't care about their story, I want to see Dajeong" and "this is BL, we don't care about heterosexual relationships" like BL characters can't have character building and development.

no bc the misogyny within the bl community is mind-boggling to me, i’ve also read a ton of disgusting and unnecessary comments about female characters just because they interact with the main couple… she could be the sweetest girl and people would still comment that she should die or something like that -__-

Jaehyuk being a badass aside, focus on the subtle things too, like him asking himself why he's not attracted to other men too if he already likes a man. I just love that this is not the same old "I'm straight but you're the exception" trope. Jaehyuk is actually trying to understand his own attraction to a man, not even discarding that he might be gay/bisexual because right now he's not attracted to ANYONE but Garam, not men nor women.

Jaeyeon just needed someone to tell him "no one's gonna like you like this" lolol it was funny when I read it the first time and it's funny now. It's hilarious that he didn't notice how unlikeable he was, but he does become more docile in the future.
I love Nana's faces, that rabid face is one of my favourites in the manhwa

I won't spoil anything, just that the volume is more drama-free (between both of them, never in their workplace lol) and that they're SO in love with each other. Natsume Isaku said in the afterword that she hopes we can see each other again, so who knows when volume 8 is coming, but it *will* be coming. I've been reading this forever and I honestly just want them to say "I love you" in the "aishiteru" way and get couple's rings (PLEASE)

Considering that the raws are easy to buy and that someone is sure going to upload the official English translation or a good scanlation, I'd rather not. That's how we get "funky" translations here. If no one uploads for a while I'll consider it, but the officials in English still haven't been released.

"We use gay for everything now" bisexual erasure is super common in manga and manhwa, there's always talk about "but you're straight" if the guy happens to like women. Been reading BL for years and I remember like 10 where bisexuality was ever mentioned.
That being said, I still loved this. From the guy who said "ew, gays are gross, wish they'd write it on their foreheads so I know to keep distance" to "I'm gayer than you are" and not just "yeah, I love women but you're an exception." He didn't mind his friend finding out he's dating another man (didn't even try to deny it!), he's thinking about Garam meeting his family, he's thinking of making money by himself so they can still be together...this manhwa is offering WAY more than other BL these days and it's the one I expected the least!

Tbh, I see it, garam saying he would go for girls once they broke up, as in he wouldn't date other men at all.
While the ML has the benefit of... he was a dumb straight just some many chapters ago, more queer knowledge learning in progress. It's quite the leapt already to have become so smitten over a man. I wouldn't call him gay er if he doesn't let garam top once tho , if he so insists on out gaying him, give garam's ass a break lmao
Last panel says it's 18x22, so it's fine I guess. Looks somewhat promising, and I like the idea that the top is shorter and has a smaller dick than the bottom, sue me. That's more realistic than the common trope.
Short top with small pp need more representations are men with big dick only allowed to top or sth?
I hate this stereotype. Sexual role isn’t based on your body or the size down there. Anyone can be a bottom, top, or vers regardless of their physique or personality. there’s no saying a top should look like this, behave like this, or have a massive size. Comment stating he should be a top because his penis is bigger pissed me off so if it’s big, you can’t be a bottom? Hmmm
I don't think this is a stereotype, it's just a common kink. No one irl is gonna be comparing dick sizes to see who should top, but since it's fiction we're talking about, people most of the times will just want to go with what's hot to them personally. But alas it's all just a matter of different tastes
Calling it a waste of resource isn’t it
it literally is a stereotype irl within the gay community
Yeah
Damn? Must be a difference in culture then bc I've literally never heard of this being an actual thing, locally
As a gay man in the gay community, I'm just learning about this. Did I hear other guys saying something similar before? Yeah, but it's not a regular thing. I'm glad I am in the circles I am I guess.

This stereotype might not be common in the gay community anymore, but it’s still a misconception thought by someone outside it.
