Age gap mangas rarely feel wholesome (sometimes it feels weird/predatory) and this one is so wholesome and i love it!! fl is such a queen i love her like she's so cute and cool and she can bend me in half and spank me. same goes for the ml he can literally choke me until i suffocate. anyways this is such a wholesome manga!!!

and i personally think the webnovel portrays this story better than the webtoon, mostly because there is a lot of nuance to the story that isn't portrayed well. in the webtoon, ml's first meeting with fl is one of the most important scenes. the music box that he received in the orphanage is also super super important and i think the webnovel shows that aspect better i think. i really couldn't hate the ml in the webnovel, but the webnovel also doesn't excuse his wrongdoings. in fact, the webtoon also shows how clearly he abuses her and neglects her. the webnovel imo focuses A LOT on the fl and how she grows to be a better person despite the pain that she has to go through, and that is why i love the webnovel. i'm not sure if the webtoon will clearly convey her growth and i'm worried that people will only see this webtoon as a sob story/ml regrets typa story. tbh i love this story because of the fl and how resilient she is....in the webnovel i was so mad and angry at the ml, but you can understand his motivations which made you empathize with him more (but his backgrounds still dont justify his actions!!). i suggest reading the webnovel for a better understanding of the story if you're interested!

as a closeted bi in a conservative community, i HATE 'allies' who would point out my sexuality...i really hate being put on the spot about my sexuality, especially since i'm trying to not show that i'm queer. i've met people like this irl and god they're the most frustrating people i've met. istg just shut up even if you know!!! anyways i think keishi was a dick for that like he didn't need to say all that he could literally just make up an excuse or play dumb but NOPEEEE
but i also get why keishi does that cuz sometimes being homophobic is the best defense to stay closeted...but also why the heck would he put down his lover like that i feel so bad for the manager :(((
also i wanna add: 'allies' who say they're not prejudiced are almost always prejudiced LMFAO like if you're really an ally then don't be nosy about people's sexualities!!! shut up and keep your thoughts to yourself!! i've met SO MANY 'allies' who just can't keep their thoughts to themselves like?? if you wanna assume my sexuality, stfu and keep those thoughts to yourself. don't talk about it to others and don't ask me about it!!!
his type is literally the whole fucking family
I can't even blame him cause they're all gorgeous af HAHAHAH
