wait am i reading into this wrong? ok you know how the story keeps alluding to scenes of mincheol taking out debts in haesoo’s name? at some point the debt collectors came and trashed the house, but i always thought mincheol was there as well, cause it seemed like he was there to comfort her right after it happened. chapter 27 just implied he wasn’t home and haesoo was alone with a bunch of hostile men who beat the shit out of her and trashed her house. come to find out that it was mincheol’s fault, then she has to triple her shifts to pay back the debt, then also get a divorce on top of that?? wow hope i got that right
Yep
i’m rereading this since the hiatus was announced. the first chapter gave me whiplash cause damn she actually looked slightly more mature and less bug-eyed… when did the artist slowly start to make her more baby faced and wide eyed not to hate but i wish the art style stuck through the manhwa but ik styles change all the time
Oh you’re rightttttttt
But what if the author wanna show us that she feels younger and more alive when treated right , i’m just guessing
yeahhh that's what I was thinking bc she's regaining her youth and taking care of herself bc she's not w that trashy ex of hers.
dull, dim-witted, dumb, degenerate, desperate, despicable… how many d words can i find to describe everyone in this manga?
i’m rereading this and it’s such a small detail but i think remi genuinely started to like angel bc he reminded her of emi. let me cook- when angel first “confessed” to remi, he said “i want to become a man who can stand by your side and not bring shame to your name,” which is followed up with remi recalling how emi told prince willard “i was trying so hard so i could stand by your side, because i wanted to become a woman who wouldn’t bring shame to anyone.” so the only reason why remi likes angel is bc of emi (exaggerating) anyway #doomed yuri so doomed she had to settle for the next best thing
i also just wana see some side chapters of pina’s reincarnated soul just living his life and maybe some sibling moments with reincarnated emi, too. i feel like they would love each other as siblings
No, literally when Angel said that and the scene of Emi saying that to that dumb prince, I was like ‘ah, he’s just like Emi so if they end up together that makes sense.’
i need ppl who didn’t actually pay attention to the story and only read the smut parts to stop commenting on them not having chemistry ITS THERE YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION, they’re also BOTH emotional stunted grown men! andddd not every couple needs to express their love for each other in the exact same way
HEAVY on go back to omegaverse. mfs acting like taemin should change his dry and socially awkward personality to generic twink in heat n500. personally i enjoy watching taemin slowly give into his desires, like ik he want jay baddd but he can’t accept it. that’s the fun about it people omggg
i mean… i kinda get it. slow burn isn’t for everyone
summarized it perfectly like truly don’t understand how it’s this hard for ppl to get
now that it’s over i’m gonna reread this for the 50th time and also sit patiently for the anime to air
why do people say they don’t have chemistry i just read the whole thing in one sitting and wow, they have amazing tension. i get the feeling that care about each other a lot in their own strange ways. taemin caught feelings very early on but most of the manhwa is narrated in his perspective, so we see him actively push his feelings away all the time. if taemin wasn’t living life for pure punishment and atonement for his family dying, he would’ve let himself fall in love with jay easily, but he won’t because he feels like he doesn’t deserve any happiness in his life. jay knows this and also knows he can’t push taemin to accept any feelings very easily, so he subtly (also not subtly aka pushing him down all the time) lets taemin know that he doesn’t need to live life in atonement forever.
jay modified that movie script at the end to include this dialogue about the suicidal office worker: “i wish i could’ve become his reason for living” and it’s implied that taemin cried after reading that part (he covers his face but pretty sure he’s crying). either jay was letting taemin know that there’s people around him who care about him (hansoo, manager choi) or he was letting taemin know what he himself wanted to become the reason taemin keeps on living. a lot of manhwa is spent on taemin learning to live with himself and find purpose in life again, even after fulfilling his unfulfilling revenge. with the encouragement of manager choi, hansoo, director jeong, and especially jay, he wants to keep being an actor despite only doing it at first to get back at myungshin. side note that chapter where myungshin found out that jay was taemin’s sponsor was way more satisfying than i thought, even if taemin didn’t feel that fulfilled.
anyway i love their chemistry and taemin just has a hard time letting himself go and admitting he finds jay fine as hell
payback hate is 1000% forced, this is a cinematic masterpiece
REAL
Dude real.
The hate is so forced
It is
REALLL
and this is why we don’t teach young children that “boys tease girls because they like them”..! some of them never grow out of it lmao
