Is it because I'm too used to spy medias that I found Taejoo's mistakes really... Dumb and infuriating? That aside it was pretty good, the plot I mean, it's typical Russian secret weapon and whatnot. Gotta say I'm staying just because Taejoo looks super fire
So i catched up with the latest chapter and hell nah, you do realize this ML is straight up manipulating MC to do what he wants, while he didn't want the bothersome stuffs dating comes with? Sure his opinion is a real issue in a relationship, but to say that while knowing that MC is catching feelings and putting up lines not to cross just so he can keep his fun? The real ones would stop and discuss properly whether they're on the same page or not, but not this guy. He didn't want anyone to "own" him but he's already pretty possessive about the MC? Wow talk about real ass here, he's smooth in ways that he take control over the naive, awkward MC so much that not even the MC realize it, yet.
This is why I said that Woori is only a plot device, he's gonna be that thorn on his side in the future that ML gonna realize he might lose MC or so jealous to the point he'll go on his redemption arch and forsake his no dating rules. I called it. MC gonna go on a path full of suffering just for this ML to be a 'decent' human
ML is really committed, not to dating, but predatory behaviors lol. It's apparent from the start, irl what he has done to this point can be considered assaults. I imagine if MC were to be separated with him for some months-years and gain more (healthier) relationship experiences, he would probably gradually realized he was manipulated and taken advantage of.
I'm talking about characters here, I'm not saying the story is bad, art is complex, no beautiful arts can be produces based only on morally sound materials. The fact that i found feel the ML predatory vibes from the start just mean the author done a superb job at characterizations, I could even do psychology study here lol.
Now we can only see how it unravel, will MC fall victim and chose to be happy with it, or will he be realistic and let go for healthier relationship, or well... See how ML develop with his redemption arch and be happy with each other
Reading at 16th chapter and my heart hurts knowing Woori is only a plot device and not even second male lead ML giving me predatory vibes while Woori being that understanding, gentle guy and being overlooked?? WHAT A SIN!!
I had to go through the earlier chapters with sheer will power to fight the urge to quit it, lest my soul descend into ultimate shame out of secondhand embarrassment.
But thank you my past self for not quitting this one because this gets so GOOD, with actual plot and mystery intriguing enough that i still can't figure out what exactly are the secrets! Also as nonsensical and chaotic the FL was she grew on me and found her adorable now, i understand ML fondness for her. And obviously vice versa because what's lacking from the ML ha! I love their banter, it's so refreshing, it's like they take turns in annoying the other out of adoration and I LOVE THAT
No fr it got so hard to stand the sheer force of her delusions I almost straight up disintegrated. Has to ask for advice if it really was worth it cuz I was hanging on by a fucking thread
LMAO it'll be worth it, it'll be quite a refreshing joy
Listen... Two men having a bath together? Idk if it's culture or what but... That sending me different vibes lololol. I KNOW there are men with platonic close relationship who do sauna together butt naked and all, but together in one bathtub?? Hmmm............. Forget melody since she's going to be together with your older brother Ronnie, go for Isaiah instead
Fr tho. My BL mind is screaming when that happened
My thoughts exactly like he isn't that bad
Now the table is turned!! You boys need to treasure each other and yourselves more
God please someone help these idiots!!
This is giving me that dumb bet meme where they're having a bet to go out with each other until the one who call it quits is the loser but they ended up getting married because they don't want to lose and one of them actually think if he's not quitting soon now he'll think there other guy is really gay like wtf
Finished reading it, finally. I liked it, loved how clever the FL until the end and there was moments of anxiety with how it turns out, but well my confidence in the FL wasn't misplaced! Overall great, i just have that one ick about the initial divorce lol.
Listen, i love the characters, they're pretty solid, charming, cute and also clever mostly for the FL. BUT it annoys me to no end whenever the topic of divorce surfaces like they suddenly lost their skill to have a proper conversation and decent logic?? It feels super forced sigh. Granted I'm still halfway the story but if they keep being dumb only when the divorce shit arises I'm about to break someone's neck
I have to say, I absolutely LOVE the artwork!! And the story is engaging! I'm so curious about this one
So truee, this might become my favourite
