people call iseon selfish for staying with her for six years, knowing he couldn’t give her what she wanted, and yeah, he was. but he wasn’t malicious—he truly loved her in the only way he knew how. he chose to love her, to care for her, to be with her—not because of some uncontrollable feeling, but because he wanted to. that was what made it meaningful for him.
was it naive? yeah. was it unfair to her? also yeah. but he wasn’t pretending or playing a role—he just didn’t realize how much it impacted her until it was too late. that’s tragic, not evil.
people can prefer hyeondo all they want (as do i, obviously), but that doesn’t mean they get to be weird about iseon. not liking a character is one thing, but telling him to kill himself or mocking his identity is just straight-up disgusting behavior. and honestly, it’s so weird how anything outside of people’s narrow idea of romance just gets dismissed as “gay” or invalid. not everything needs to fit into your idea of what love should look like.
the mc isn’t in the wrong for not wanting to choose between the ml’s alters — how could he? both are still him. he genuinely cares for both, and choosing one would feel like killing the other.
ppl are saying “just let them merge into one” but that’s not the same thing at all — if they merge, neither of them truly remains, and that’s what makes it so cruel. the mc isn’t just being stubborn — he doesn’t want to erase the people he loves.
this isn’t just “two sides of the same coin”—it’s two people. the story makes it so clear that for the mc, these are two separate people, both real, both loved. if you don’t get why the mc is struggling, then you haven’t really been paying attention.
ppl r complaining but the artstyle really does fit the freakiness of the story cause like what??? WHY DOES HE KEEP SUCKING ON HIS TONGUE
its so gut wrenching she gets sad knowing she survived
is his harem going to be filled with his students??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
if anyone cares, the extra chapter after chapter 110 includes canon backstories (i think ??) you can see durian’s mum in the back too !!
I feel so empty I hope we get plenty side story content
i prefer these quirkier artstyles over the stereotypical yaoi style like omfg give the characters spunk guys!!!
i really want yayul to be the ml but i feel like the og ml will end up w our mc
the manipulation was such an unnecessary add-on ??? why bother show us how nice the ml was before if he’s just going to pressure the mc now
why is he so child coded bring back the og couple i can’t read ts any longer
