The story’s kind of cute, but I honestly hope teenagers don’t read it. What was the Uke even thinking? He was literally raped, yet feels like he’s the jerk just for pretending not to notice the Seme avoiding him. **Facepalm**
This reminded me why I stopped reading romance Manga—they’re often incredibly toxic. The ML/Seme cheats, rapes, or mistreats the FL/Uke, and somehow the latter ends up blaming themselves. Then they forgive the ML/Seme far too easily.
I know Manhwa has similar tropes, but at least there, the ML usually gets some kind of redemption arc. In Manga, though, the FL/Uke ends up forgiving the cheating ML/Seme and even blames themselves.

The FL is ridiculously stubborn and downright foolish!
She knows the ML loves her precisely because she doesn’t let him control her, yet she keeps acting in ways that only draw him in more.
If she truly wants him to lose interest, why doesn’t she just be submissive and go along with what he says? It’s not like he treats her badly without reason. Every time he gets upset, it’s because she’s being difficult.

I’m starting to dislike the ML. What is he even doing? It feels like he’s just toying with the FL at this point.
Maybe I’m at a point where I can’t stand it when someone purposely ignores messages or avoids contact just to act all hard to get.
That kind of behavior feels exhausting and immature to me.

didn’t you see he’s at work
and let’s say he’s doing it intentionally, since the first chapter it’s always been him seeking to hae-soo, of course at some point you’ll also want to know that if you stop seeking to the person you like, will they come around or are they just waiting for you to make a move?

This is obviously not a wholesome romance. A lot of people are hating on the ML because of the way he acts but in my point of view that's the point. His intentions aren't pure and it's obviously not gonna be a healthy relationship. He will do things just to get Haesoo to belong to him.
I feel like he's trying to manipulate her into trying to be dependent on him considering how independent she's been. She's gotten used on not relying on anyone. The ML is probably making the FL be the first to reach out.
People these days have been hating on actual yandere forgetting about the fact why they are even called yandere.
Not defending him or anything. I neither hate nor like the ML. As long as Na Haesoo doesn't go back to Mincheol I'll be fine with the story.

True, this isn’t exactly a wholesome romance, but I feel bad for the FL and hope she can break free from men like her ex. With the way the ML is acting right now, he’s no different from her ex.
She deserves to find someone who genuinely cares for her because either the ML has a valid reason for his behavior, or he’s just as toxic as the ex. It seems like he’s love-bombing the FL to make her obsess over him in an unhealthy way.
Worst? A lot of readers justify the ML’s behavior simply because of the sweet gestures he’s made in the past episodes. lol!
I truly hope the ML has a solid and valid reason for distancing himself from the FL, or he needs to respond to her in the next ep.!

It does come off as a bit manipulative, but since both of them agreed to it—and the MC is aware of that—I guess it’s fine.
What really bothers me, though, is how they allowed a five-year-old to enter dungeons. Even if he was an S-Class Esper, being exposed to that much violence at such a young age… it’s honestly surprising he turned out mentally stable.
I agree with you but with the PTSD and the fact he accepted the tops clearly twisted feelings,, mentally stable might be a stretch lmao.
He remained mentally stable, in the sense that he did not become a psychotic killer, despite getting thrown into dungeons from the age of 5.
