oh fuck oh FUCK OH FUCK. hahaha god i'm so ready to see this progress. i know i said i wanted yeonhwa to redeem herself but i just got so excited when that sadistic streak returned. but only bc i want to see it come out with dahye, not poor yeonyoung
it's all fucked though haha, so whatever goes right?
i know we're all on edge that yeonhwa is going to do something crazy, but what if she doesn't? like, sure it might come out during sex at some point due to her sadism, but maybe it won't come out in her relationships in an unhealthy/abusive way. i can't assume that she's completely grown out of her abusive habits, but i can't also say that there hasn't been a lot of time for her to grow either. i think it would be cool to see her and dahye navigate where they are due to their high school experience. i don't think dahye owes her abuser anything (nor should she get revenge in the way that she is attempting) but it would be interesting to see them work together in some way, idk.
(or maybe i'm just fucked up and want to see them reconcile by hooking up a bunch lol)
i guess i may be fucked up myself too to want them reconcile and hookup as well
i guess we're all fucked up for wanting to see a healthier relationship between Yeonhwa and Dahye grow, lol.
from the recently added chapters, i think i can say with confidence that Yeonhwa's past relationship with Ayeon, and her current relationship with Yeonyoung have shown to her that she can love people without being rough or abusive (as this is seen to be how she shows her love and affection). her sadistic side doesn't seem to come up with Yeonyoung, and Yeonyoung's surprise to Yeonhwa being rough with her implies that they've never had very rough sex before. it'll probably resurface with her being with Dahye, and im especially looking forward to see how their relationship will progress...
mostly from Dahye's side. if they are to be together, im interested in how Dahye's obsession will change to love for Yeonhwa.
(that little moment where Yeonhwa's like "calm down, im not going anywhere") (ugh, i think i ship it already)
ok, i was thinking earlier about the fact that yeonhwa isn't always on "sadism mode" in her relationships, ayeon being an example of that! i know yeonhwa did fucked up stuff, but everyone seems hard pressed to make it seem like she can't redeem herself. so i'm glad i'm not alone in recognizing that yeonhwa has the capability to not be abusive!
i ship it haha. i am also interested to see if dahye can "forgive" yeonhwa, and if yeonhwa will apologize and try to make amends for what happened in high school. that's the only healthy way they could start something romantic (in my opinion). knowing how the original ended though, i do NOT have my hopes up for any relationship between them, let alone a healthy one haha. the author always seems to do something unexpected with their relationships
yeah the whole community seems to be split on whether or not Yeonhwa can love without being abusive, but i personally think she is capable of it. i think it depends on who she's with tho, so unless Dahye tones it down a couple notches, i fear we'll be seeing the original Yeonhwa again (tho she has already surfaced a bit).
i never thought to put Yeonhwa and Dahye together, so just the thought of them being together in any way is interesting to me. definitely hope they can have a healthy relationship at some point and get redemption for what they both did in the past. im also wondering whether or not the author is going to make this a redemption story for Yeonhwa and Dahye, or if this is going to end in a similar way the original did, so i'll definitely stick around for that.
what's actually super interesting about this sequel is the time skip. when they're "kids" they have all these emotions/feelings, and no proper way to deal with them bc they're still growing up (no matter how fucked their actions may have been). now that they're older they have the ability explore those emotions differently, such as explicitly exploring same sex attraction, careers, romantic relationships, and things that were only sort of glossed over in the original, bc the main focus was the cycle of abuse. seeing them go from kids to adults is really really cool narrative wise, and i'm excited to see how this pans out
i am living for gyerin tbh hahaha. it’s also super cool to see a bi protagonist, who’s actively into men and women :)! i assume that doona will end up with one of the boys though
thank yooouuuu skeji!
i didn't actually want to read this because i didn't like the art style of the first chapter, but boy am i glad that i decided to give it a try. their relationship makes me very excited and i can't wait to see where this ends up!
holy shit HOLY SHIT!! i've been dying for this to update
oh my goodness! i was nervous that this would go a very different direction, but i am soooo pleased!! cutest story i've read in a minute. if anyone is wondering if they should check this out, it's easily worth reading the chapters available. i'm so excited for updates, and hopefully this will be a new favorite upon completion :)
