Why everybody in this manhwa is good-looking? AAAAAAAAAAA, especially CEO Han and his secretary skskm wlqlmem
And idk why Sangwoo and CEO Han made the best sex scene!! I love Sangwoo's smug face and CEO Han lewd face uWu
BJ Alex was the first yaoi I read in mangago. I read in one go. And for virgin and innocent(?) me, it was truly a sexual awakening for me (ummm, thanks Jiwon?). Now, I hope I can forget this story so I can read it all over again like the first time:)
I just Started reading this 3 days ago. (≧∀≦) And I feel the same.
If you are curious about the korean version ...
This just a little notes (I edited with some suggestions from the comments)
After Haesoo said "Say something. You called me." At that moment Joowon called "Lee Haesoo".
It has so much meaning bcs earlier someone miscalled his name with Lee Hyunsoo and he said in monologue it's okay I know my own name but then joowon calls him by his full name + he must be a bit surprised to be called so formally by his hyung. That's why Haesoo's expression's like that.
Then Haesoo called him "Hyung" (informal)
Joowon started to call Haesoo "Haesoo-ya" (informal, -ya after names add meaning endearment).
And what Joowon said to Haesoo:
나는, 해수야. (basically means Haesoo-ya, I ....)
영원히 네 편이야. (영원히 means forever, eternally : it means more like "I'll be on your side forever")
After that it's the same, I think.
네 형이고, 네 친구고… (I'm your Hyung, I'm your friend ...)
그냥. 네 거야. (Just. I'm all yours.)
(And this personally makes me break down:
Haesoo saying
미안해 (Mianhae): sorry, I'm sorry.
Idk, saying mianhae, instead I'm sorry, makes me cry more :((( )
Thanks ! It's always interesting to have the language subtleties, it brings more understanding
Ok now I can cry again. Whatever will happen just happened. Sigh
Also that moment when joowon hesitated and called him Lee Haesoo it was so much meaning bcs earlier someone miscalled his name with Lee Hyunsoo and he said in monologue its okay I know my own name but then joowon calls him by his full name. I think thats why he make that face.
Also the fact that he knew it was joowon just from the ringtone...
Same, I cried when I read korean version, especially when Haesoo said "Mianhae" three times but I can't cry with the official translation ugghhh :(((
Yessss even if he said "I know my name" he must feel a lot sad. And hearing familiar voice calling his name must be hitting him hard + he must never imagine Joowon, his very own dear hyung, will ever call him that formally, I cryyy ╥﹏╥
Glad it helps♡♡♡
um i’m sorry i don’t mean to be rude but are you really korean? because 형이고 means “i am your hyung” not “i am your hyungie” and in this contest -ie is used for grammar not endearment... also Mianhae literally means “i’m sorry” it’s not anything special so i’m not sure why ur saying “instead”.... and 영원히 네 편이야 literally means “i’m forever on your side” meaning that he will support haesoo, even if he’s not physically there, so there’s no “stay” involved at all
*context not contest
No, but I'm fluent in korean.
I know it's for grammatical, but sometimes ppl use -ie too for endearment like in Hamin-ie (but more like in very implicitly). I'll edit my post if you disagree abt that one.
Yes, what I mean by "stay" isn't physically but to always support him (thanks for the edit btw, I can't put it in english quite well actually). what I emphasize it's in "forever", it suits Joowon more since he's a romantic.
For me, what truly broke me is the sentence “im just all yours” in korean (“Geunnyang.. Ne geoya”) . I know the meaning is literally the same but somehow if you sound it in english it feels like he just trying to flirt or something lmaoo but if you sound it in korean it feels like he really helpless and like his whole soul belongs to haesoo and its really make me sad
Omg righttt 100% agree. I can feel that eventho it's literally the same it hits differently somehow╥﹏╥
Now I'm crying again reading the comments
but in that context it was just plain wrong tho...... -ie is only really an endearment terms if it’s attached to a name. if it’s attached to hyung it’s for grammar only... like i’m 100% korean and i was born in korea and i really wouldn’t say you are fluent in korean with these translations....
and “Idk, saying mianhae, instead I'm sorry, makes me cry more :((( )” BROSKI mianhae = i’m sorry LMAO dude using google translate does not make u fluent in korean lol
I'm sorry if my korean isn't as fleunt as yours since you're "korean", but you don't have to be that rude, you don't even know me personally ok? You can just correct me I'm open to suggestion :(
I knowww it's literally meaning the same, I just said it hits differently when someone says "I'm sorry" and "mianhae". "Mianhae" sounds sadder to me.
first of all i’m not trying to be rude i’m sorry if i can off that way (just tryna joke around but if it offended you i’m sorry) HOWEVER ummm if ur fluent in korean you really wouldn’t be making these mistakes so if i were u i really wouldn’t be calling yourself that... also it’s a really big pet peeve of mine when people say that “hyung-ie” is an endearment bc it’s really not??? -ie is only an endearment when it’s attached to a name when it’s with hyung is only for grammar....
also tell ur bud to take a chill pill lmfao if they’re so skeptical that i’m korean tell them to take what i just said to any korean and ask if i’m right.... but if that’s their go to response to correction then i doubt they have any korean friends looool
Okay, got it ... chill, Bud!! I don't take it personal ;))) and I didn't google translate it tbh hahahaha. Oooh, thanks for the note! That's only my feeling to use it as endearment then, you know sometimes we translate using feeling too ;) okay, I was wrong at that part ;)
Maybe you are not fluent in English, I'm not myself but you sound rly rude and patronising.
i promise you im fluent in english and korean as clearly demonstrated in the comments but thank you for your delightful input lmfao
No they don't honestly. maybe to people who don't like being corrected and can't accept that they might be wrong think it sounds like that..
They sound like they were just overly cautious not to sound rude because people are quick to get offended at the thought that they might be wrong.
"LMAO dude using google translate does not make u fluent in korean lol"
If this isn't rude I can't help you.
You don't have to help me. Lol my bad that some people have thicker skin than others .. if they didn't use Google translate they shouldn't feel like they have to prove anything to an internet stranger.
People have different sensitivity *shrug*.... And let's not pretend that that person was nice and helpful. Because they were anything but that. They were sarcastic and passive aggressive from the very start.
Oh wow now we are playing psychologists? After this short conversation you are making some assumptions.
If you want to take what I said as me playing a psychologist do what you want. & you're right I am making assumptions because I don't know you or them. So anything I say or you say about another person will just be assumptions from how we see the situation at the end of the day. We are all behind a keyboard. There's no tone to words. Now I'm done replying. If you wanna talk to yourself go right ahead.
Wow, I wish I could tag multiple people on mangago but it can't hhhhhhh. I dunno that people will really be worked up on this. But stop it guys. I don't wanna proof anything, just wanna help people who don't know korea a little. And it's no big deal, like no reason to continue this discussion. Looololol's words didn't even offend me like at all, cause I didn't. Like sorry I made some mistake cuz I mixed my feeling on this. Compared to them or anyone, my korean's probably 'nothing'. Yeah, but it doesn't mean that only you who understand korean ajjwjqmw jwjwjw. Just tried to say that it's common impoliteness to say random ppl you barely know 'google translate'. It's fine with me, but other ppl might be offended next time you say it. Just learn to be more polite and considerate please, it's important for you.
(⊙…⊙ ) you were the first one who replied to my message... But ok
This is one of the best BL manhwa with love triangle story I have ever read ╥﹏╥ I love LoH passionately, but it doesn't pass this one, imo, sorry ╥﹏╥
Who’s that in your profile?
Eungi from Fools
Love when a character wears a turtle neck inner(?) under their school uniform. They look twice hotter. Ahhh, and can't wait seeing them catching feeling(▰˘◡˘▰)
.

He'll become mermaid, or merman in next chapter (or a chapter after that, kinda forget). And I can't wait for that (▰˘◡˘▰)
ヾ(☆▽☆) yyyyeeeeeesssssssss!!!!!
He acted all tough and stern in front of his little brother, when he's actually an adorable softie. I wanna protect him. God.
Dojun seriously looks like Taehan but uke version(づ￣ ³￣)づ
Anyway, I miss our (soon-to be) daddy Taehan lol♡ our best boi♡
And doc I think looks like seme Doyun with glasses(づ￣ ³￣)づ
Yesshhh(づ￣ ³￣)づ (and different hair color)
This is so uwu
I think color is kinda similar, it's more hairstyle difference
Btw has this story ended? Can someone spoil for me?
not good ending
In short, Han gets rid of Taesun who's taking it very hard. He decides to take revenge and set up his own business and then pressure Han with videos of him for blackmail. In the end, Han ends up being totally controlled by Taesun and loses a big part of his business and even his right-hand man Taejun.
Taesun? Do you mean Sangwoo? Ohhh poor Han ╥﹏╥ how about the ending? Is it open ending or how?
Frick ┗( T﹏T )┛
yes Sangwoo
and yes u can say its an open-ending bc it ends with Han being completely controlled and at the feet of Sangwoo and Taejun who catches them having sex because of a trap set by Sangwoon and leaves disappointed thinking Han will never change
so there's not really an end to it, just the fact that the roles are reversed
Thank you!! Just here to read the smut and enjoy their handsome faces/hot bods anyway (▰˘◡˘▰)
haha yes same here
