So from what I gather up to last chapter. The mom got a kid, juheon, maybe out of wedlock, and then chose to marry another poor & abusive man which clearly not juheon's father. Then she got kicked out from her rich home by her father. Then proceed to blame juheon for every misfortune and miserable life she had. She didn't even believe that juheon was the one being bullied at school. She made all those wrong choices in life, and the kid is the problem for being born. Suuuure.
I know auntie only wants more inheritance by adopting juheon. She is as toxic as the mom I assume, but at least she got the money to provide juheon's living
Sekyung is kinda weird. He ignored yihyoen blatant stare at him for 2 years. He never interact with him. He only help maybe a few times so yihyoen money didn't get taken by hong jaemin. But that's all.
The day yihyoen committed suicide, he came to sekyung, he tried to blackmail/threatened sekyung by saying that if sekyung didn't do as he say, he will reveal to others that sekyung actually enjoy taking advantage of people feeling (sekyung is kinda sociopath, he kept having imagination of killing people who annoys him). I think, yihyoen tried his best to ask for help. But at the time, sekyung, didn't stretch his hand to help yihyoen who actually came to him with no shoes on rainy day in pajama. Yihyoen was shocked with sekyung reply so he ran. At that time, sekyung felt regret because he shouldn't have said that. It's kinda sad. Even on his last day on earth, yihyoen didn't get help from sekyung.
Then sekyung become so annoying, he kept wanting to know where the real yihyoen goes, and the cried when dukpal told him that yihyoen actually jumped that day.
Tbh, I don't understand why he didn't care and suddenly he try to care? Is is guilt?
Dukpal felt pity for crying sekyung just told him someday yihyoen will come back and he will go (meaning dukpal will be dead but sekyung didn't know that). Then sekyung was like, I kinda like new yihyoen, if old yihyoen come back, where the new yihyoen will go?
Like. Why dude. Why. Why do you care.
When the old guy being bullied sekyung just stand there, now he wants the old guy to come back? For what? Does he want to be friend? Too late. He is dead.
The story isn't even about revenge, so far (ch30), it's only story about school, study, exams, playing with friends.
And if the original body owner is gone gone for real
Which seems more likely since none of the spoilers say anything about he coming back to his body
That means he never got a second chance at life unless he also reincarnated somewhere else
The forty almost fifty old guy who lived as a violent gangster, got his dream of going to school
But young yihyeon was just sad till the end
Yeah that's really sad tho.
Unlike "for grieving you", which uke & seme avenge the body owner to his brother, but his soul later visit uke and told him to just live and stop avenging him because he finally be happy that he can meet his mom again in heaven. At least the body owner's mon really did love him.
But in this story case, real yihyoen didn't have anyone. No parents loved him. No friends. Being bullied. Even when he gathered all courage to approached sekyung, he was just being belittled.
I still don't understand why dukpal chose to be friends with sekyung & the bullies. I understand he is much much older. Usually older people don't really think mucj about younger generation problems, but he could at least "not befriend them".
50 years age gap, and not just usual mental age gap, but war veteran who had lived in harshest timeline. Tbh, if I were MC, I won't remember friends from 50 years ago. Not even first love. Life goes on, in 50 years, many things had happened.
I wonder if author can really depict how older person actually think about younger people.
ML acts as a normal 19 year old - full of emotions and figuring them out. MC is very mature, and I was concerned for the age gap, but MC is more like a mature child than an actual adult. Even though he is 69 years old, he lived the 50 years in constant survival and agony to actually grow. He became emotionally mature, yes, but later in the novel/manhwa you can see that he is just a child the more he spends time with ML. Mentally, he stayed as a 19 year old.
As how he sees younger people - in the novel he describes that he was always out of touch with his peers (because he was getting ready to go to the future from when he was 18) even before he went to the future and is just patient with them.
Aside from villains. The family, the emperor, the corrupt people.
Tbh it's annoying. FL is overconfident with herself, she already got two days before the raffle, which mean, she should have deal the diamond mine certificate in allotted time, but no. She was like oopss I forgot to screw luther over, I should go back to the duchy ALONE, because I believe Luther is in imperial palace now.
Why didn't she used that 2 days to steal the diamond mine documents (or get Sir Grik to do it, he is skilled). Then after the raffle they all can just go together.
Now she was so scared to be divorced she rather tracked down the messenger??? And she let the maid came with her.
Why not, send maid over to her husband castle to make a report, that she and the knight went to the forest, and when she and grik go to the forest maybe her husband can meet her some way in the middle. It's so complicated because she kept changing her minds.
Husband also frustrating. He finished his job early, he said he will bring his wife back with him AFTER trial. But naaahh, I m going to be gone for a while, without telling her anything. You know, he can tell FL things like, the duke will pick you up in few days please wait. If he said that, maybe FL won't be so rush running to the forest and just headed to the castle. But ML is gone without giving reason or prior notice to FL that her husband will come to pick her up. For what exactly was he gone??? Didn't he put Allnighter for 2 days to complete 48 documents, before trial so he can meet with her?
Both of them wasting so much time by thinking, "ah yes I could do this first, oh that plan? Yeah we can delay it, after I do something I suddenly think just now". It works if they don't have problems tho. But that's not their case, does it. FL has to runaway faster, while all ML thinking is "I have to make a grand entrance to whisk my wife away". That's what you got by lying. I get that he lied the first time because he suspicious of her. But it was annoying he kept his lie all the time when he knew enough that she wasn't even part of the family and expect everything will go smoothly.
Why miscommunication is favorite theme in novel?
1. Don't lie
2. Don't waste time
3. Don't let your guard down
I bet if this story went accordingly to ur liking, u will find it boring because of how easy her plans went. Likeee, I'm glad the miscommunication isn't that bad. I've suffered enough miscommunication in novels that would last for so long that it's unnecessary. I'm surprised that we are at chapter 55, and the ml already knows that the mc isn't bad, fell for her(well, he's still in denial which is understandable cuz of his trauma), knows her suffering and didn't dilly dally and just went straight to her house to take her. I agree, granted he could've asked his men to send a message to the mc that his busy.. but that would mean the risk of revealing that he is Hertz. Why couldn't Hertz just go to the mc?? Isn't he just a proxy? And the mc is already aware that he is not present at all times. Like give the dude a break, his basically taking his time out to meet the mc despite his busy schedule. Did u forgot the chapter where he had under eye bags? Like my guy didn't sleep for days, and still went to her.
All in all, if what you've wished went accordingly to the story, we would have a plain ass story that gets quickly resolve. I'm actually glad that this story didn't go to what you wanted or else it would've been rlly boring, and the misunderstanding of the ml towards the fl was easily cleared. Now I'm just eagerly waiting for the reveal of the ml identity to the mc, tho for some reason, this story has enough misunderstanding that wouldn't make me lose my hair out of frustration. It's just enough. I'm just hoping for the mc and ml to heal from their trauma.
I'll just say it here. Seme is a green flag. Later when they have sex and uke is like, can't take it because it hurt, they just stop. Uke is so funny he bought a lot of dildo to try it himself, so he can be bottom. But seme isn't angry or anything.
I think the problem is the people around uke. Uke brother hates uke having an alpha boyfriend so hyung sent omega prostitute to uke. Uke kicked him out, but seme later smell the pheromone residue which led him to misunderstanding.
Tbh. It's given that seme is angry. Uke used to be a fuckboy. And uke has history of lying to seme aside his catfishing, when seme met him with flower bouquet, uke lied to seme that he drank alone in bar, which is lie, uke met up with his alpha client. Even they fight and made up.
Seme is doting tho. Seme noona called seme over to her cafe because she wanted to scold him after his failure blind date, the girl is also there. Actually the girl already told noona seme wasn't interested in her but noon was so hell bend to call seme to ask what's going on. Seme came with uke and super lovey dovey, the girl was like I was right, I'll get going then. Noona was shocked. Lol. But she accepted it. Unlike uke hyung.
