I LOVE THIS MANGA IDGAF! people always complain how “she’s still the same” or that “there’s no real chemistry" yet it been shown little by little. Her personality is still timid and she cries a lot but she strong in her own way. She explains this herself how although she’s empathetic and reserved, she can still stand her ground when it matters.

Somewhere along the way, we started hating FL characters like this because they don’t fit the “strong badass fl” which is a physically powerful, fearless, emotionally stoic heroine who never needs help. People claim they want a “strong FL,” yet bash anyone who isn’t bold and loud. But strength comes in many forms. There are countless traits that can define a strong female lead.

True diversity means representing all kinds of women: bold, timid, emotional, logical, nurturing, independent. Hating timid characters is basically gatekeeping what “acceptable” femininity looks like. You’re just creating another restrictive standard for how women should act. For example: “Women shouldn’t be weak or shy they should be bold and fearless.” That’s the same problem as before, limiting women to one personality type.

We as woman has so many conflict emotions and this manga portrays that beautifully. Not to mention they’re teenagers! Do you really expect teens to have perfect communication skills in a relationship? Especially Uka, who’s only just starting to come out of her shell. Kai isn’t perfect either as his past relationships weren’t great. The beauty of their relationship is that they’re trying. Their communication isn’t always verbal, but it’s there in their actions. And at the end of the day, they understand each other and that’s what matters

People saying this is “cringe” forget that it’s supposed to be like that, they’re in high school and still learning. Not to mention, this manga is old! All the characters are different, which is the point: people have different personalities and struggles. The doubts they feel because of outside opinions, and their effort to communicate despite insecurities, show how raw and imperfect they are and that’s what makes it real.

As a hardcore shoujo girly, this is one of my favorites bc it's so old school. It’s exactly what I used to read in middle school, daydreaming, “This will happen to me when I get to high school.” Shoujo was created to comfort young girls even if it’s a little cringe sometimes. It was specifically targeted at school aged girls and was never just about romance. It’s about personal growth, friendship, and hope. Despite the cringe factor, we loved it and that’s the magic of classic shoujo.

Sorry for this long rant but I absolutely adore my old cringe classic shoujo coming from a girl who just graduated!

I FUCKING HATE ASMIL OMFG. I genuinely feel so fucking bad for Asdion. I can't believe how he puts up with that son of a bitch. Seriously, I fucking hate him. Asdion deserved a different ML, someone better because Asmil is such a bitch bro. Asdion needs someone who genuinely loves him for who he is, not someone he has to chase. The hatred I feel for Asmil is unreal. I actually feel so fucking bad for Asdion. Their chemistry almost made me stop reading the damn novel.

Bro, people who keep trying to justify the MC’s actions just don’t get it . Like yeah, you can totally understand his situation and what he went through but that still doesn’t give him the right to say all that.

His hyung was genuinely worried and treated him well. You can empathize with what he’s been through and still admit that the way he acted wasn’t right, especially considering how kind they were to him

Im gonna fucking lose my hair just when I thought we would get more of the second couple I get shot in the face like a bitch

Spoilers ahead like, full on spoilers. If you don’t want to be spoiled, scroll past now!

Why did the ML kidnapped the Mc? To explain that im gonna provide some context.

So, the MC (Seonwoo) and his childhood friend Yoochan were both orphans. They had no family, no support system. Yoochan was the rough type, always getting into gang activity and bullying others. Seonwoo wasn’t like that, but he still tagged along, never really stopping Yoochan or stepping away.

Eventually, Yoochan got involved with a dangerous gang. The gang used both of them and would abuse them. An Hyungtae, there leader who is ruthless, cold, and terrifying took a particular interest in Seonwoo, more than Yoochan, which made Yoochan jealous.

Later, Seonwoo was given a mission. It was to “Get close to Ihyun” (aka the ML). He even gave Seonwoo candy and nice clothes to help him blend in and look the part. Seonwoo and Ihyun became friends and played games, eating food, and just going out. Seonwoo noticed Ihyun’s parents weren’t very present or attentive, and he reported that to An Hyungtae. The next day, An Hyungtae told him to bring Ihyun out again and when Seonwoo invited ihyun to the arcade a van suddenly pulled up and kidnapped both of them. Ihyun was tied up wrists and ankles while Seonwoo just stood there, frozen in shock. Ihyun looked at him with tears in his eyes, completely betrayed.

Ihyun was locked in a basement. Small, dark, dirty, and disgusting. He was barely fed. Eventually, Seonwoo found him. Horrified, he made a plan to help Ihyun escape. Long story short: he put Ihyun in a cage to make it seem like he was gone and sneak him out. But before this Yoochan found out and told Seonwoo he was gonna tell An Hyungtae but Seonwoo, terrified of being found out beat the shit of yoochan and after yoonchan passed out he ran.

Seonwoo brought Ihyun to the police and told them everything. Detective Noh took the case seriously and arrested the gang. Turns out, An Hyungtae had been hired by a rival with a grudge against Ihyun’s parents to kidnap him.

So why did the ML kidnap the MC years later?
Because he was angry. ML (Ihyun) hated that Seonwoo got to live a normal life. Working. Making college friends. Moving on. Meanwhile, he was left behind with trauma and scars. He was kidnapped and betrayed, and Seonwoo just… moved forward. Ihyun wanted Seonwoo to understand the pain he went through to experience what it felt like to be trapped, helpless, and forgotten.

ML’s Trauma

Ihyun struggles with PTSD, especially around dark, enclosed spaces. His bedroom literally reflects this. it’s basically a giant cage. A scaled-up version of the one he was held in as a child. It’s tall and wide enough that he doesn’t have to crouch, but it still feels overwhelming. The cage fills nearly the entire room, which is just a bit smaller than Seonwoo’s bedroom. Sunlight filters in through the window, casting shadows of the bars over the bed. It smells like oil and metal.

Ihyun has multiple locks on the cage, and he fastens each one from top to bottom every night. Without them, he can’t sleep. It’s part of his trauma.

How did they get closer? How did they fall in love?

When Seonwoo got kidnapped, he actually… didn’t hate it. At first, he was scared but then he kind of liked being lazy. And it’s important to note: Ihyun never abused or raped him. The MC was terrified he’d be thrown into a dark, nasty basement and fed only dumplings or sold off for ransom at any moment. But none of that happened.
In fact, Seonwoo didn’t even feel like he was kidnapped. He thought he deserved a harsher punishment because of the guilt. Ihyun was treating him nice too.

Regular, delicious meals three times a day, fresh fruit and snacks, plenty of sleep, warm sunlight, fluffy blankets that smelled like fabric softener, and soft floors and walls everywhere. His body, used to little sleep and constant overwork, adjusted fast to the cozy life.

Since starting university, Seonwoo had been under so much stress on top of working two or three part-time jobs. He even felt sorry for Ihyun, who had traumatic memories of basement, while Seonwoo found comfort in it.

At first, he lived in the first floor, but when Ihyun saw Seonwoo trying to leave after he stepped near the door, he panicked and moved him to the basement. But it wasn’t bad at all. The basement had everything Seonwoo liked: a TV, video games, a bed, food, everything.

He liked that Ihyun could only sleep deeply when he was around. He liked the desperate way Ihyun looked at him. He liked that Ihyun couldn’t get enough of him. He liked the affection and even started to like Ihyun himself. He liked when Ihyun showed his obsession. He liked being desired. He was even satisfied with the metaphorical (and literal) shackle that kept him from running away.
Even when they had sex, it never escalated beyond a hand job until Seonwoo told Ihyun he wanted to go further. He told Ihyun to put it in and that he wanted it. Lol. He liked that Ihyun couldn’t sleep without him, that he was wanted, needed. He even liked that their relationship started as childhood friends and led to this. Once Seonwoo realized his true self and feelings, he let everything go.

One arc that stood out:
When the MC got pneumonia ihyun thought it was bc of the basement but it was actually bc of mc had apartment. It got really bad and he wasn’t eating or moving, and Ihyun freaked out. He seriously thought Seonwoo was going to die. When Seonwoo got better, he told Ihyun that he wanted to stay with him. That he wouldn’t run away. That he liked being with him.

Ihyun got scared and thought maybe Seonwoo had Stockholm syndrome, so he called a psychiatrist. LMAO. But in the end, Ihyun realized Seonwoo genuinely liked being by his side. Seonwoo even listed all the reasons why. They ended up together and lived happily.

Some thoughts:
BTW, the ML is actually very gentle in his own way. And Seonwoo realized that. Ihyun’s trauma is so deep and heavy that Seonwoo couldn’t even compare what he went through to it. And that’s why he allowed Ihyun to do what he wanted because he understood it. He believed he deserved it. You could tell that even when Ihyun was relaxed with Seonwoo, he was still haunted by what happened.

One scene that hit hard:
Seonwoo, held tightly in Ihyun’s arms, thought:
“But the padlocks seem more for himself than for me…”
Judging by how worn out the locks were, they had clearly been used for a long time. They weren’t there to imprison someone, they were for Ihyun’s mental stability. Maybe he couldn’t even sleep without them.
(Which was true.)

I didn’t fully finish the novel, but the last arc explains more in detail about Ihyun’s trauma and his personality. It’s honestly really sad how much pain he’s in. And while he might look like one of those obsessed, possessive MLs… he’s not. Not really. He’s just a broken person trying to hold on and Seonwoo is the piece that helped him.

Omg the novel is so unintentionally funny. Like the ML literally kidnaps the MC, locks him up, and the MC just feels bad for him. Bro is trapped and still thinking, “ he too nice.”

The MC is constantly like, “How is this even revenge?” or “He should’ve punished me more painfully…” because, “He gave me a big house and food I never had before… I used to live in a basement.” not to mention the ml doesn't even hurt him either

I swear this manhwa is meant to be a comedy bc the art is so bad it's so funny

This shit was absolutely ass. I should’ve known the moment I saw it was an omegaverse, but I wanted to give it a damn chance. Same recycled, lazy-ass plot of a "weak, poor omega uke pretending to be a beta, traumatized as hell," and here comes the rich, emotionally constipated, sigma alpha who immediately starts sexually harassing the MC because the pheromones.

I genuinely cannot believe how fucking bad this was. And anyone who tell me otherwise. Idgaf. Spare me the respectful alpha bullshit. Respectful where? Because he didn’t rape the MC yet? That’s literally the bare minimum, you delul.

“They’re such a green flag because they hold back on the uke!!” Like are you serious? That’s your standard?? Holding back from violating someone is now seen as praise-worthy? Omfg i can't.
