I was rereading the novel and I can’t wait for the chapter that Zhenya’s sister gives an apple to Taekjoo hihihihihihi (if you know you know)
What happens? Spoil me!
Where can you red the novel??
So basically, there's this scene where Zhenya's sister visits him on his island, where he's keeping Taekjoo captive, and she brings him some fruit to eat during her stay there (oh, she went to the island without telling Zhenya). Olga (the sister) was peeling an apple in front of Taekjoo in a not very productive way, so he decides to peel and cut the fruit for her because it would be faster and more practical. He eventually ends up eating an apple she brought, because it was already turning yellow. At that moment, Zhenya comes back (he wasn't home when Olga arrived, Taekjoo was alone), and comes across the scene and is intrigued by his sister's presence, so he stares at Taejon eating the apple and then asks "When did that come?" - yes, referring to his sister that way lol. After that he kind of throws a tantrum, he makes Taekjoo some mixed rice and forces him to eat it even though he already asked if he had eaten it, to which he nodded. When Taekjoo protested again that he had already eaten, Zhenya said "Don't pick up and eat dirty things" with a grimace. Because until now everything Teakjoo did was controlled by Zhenya, what to eat, what to do, where to sleep... and the fact that Zhenya tattooed Taekjoo as her property only made it more visual, that he is supposed to depend on Zhenya. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Btw Olga’s presence in the house triggered MANY events, it all went spiralling from there.

I’m in complete shock and at loss of words.. this story is so rich and the approach the author chose to take is so compelling to me, it’s truly a masterpiece.
See? you don’t need to romanticizing r for the sake of shock, it’s not cool, it’s not quirky… this is good writing, this is to make you reflect, to make you uncomfortable and feel helpless just as much as the character - and it does a fantastic job in making you fear men, definitely choosing the bear btw.
You don’t need to give an awful past to a character to exempt them of responsibility, people can just be evil without any “logical” reason.
Also fuck redemption arcs.
Again, I love this approach, very mature, very rich and very interesting.
the way my heart dropped… like no babes, I don’t like him that much but this is devastating
I do agree he deserves a good slap in the face, but not in this circumstance, not for that reason… those who didn't have a welcoming home know this pain, the violence for the sake of violence
omg this is so sad, but as per usual people are not focusing on the real reason this is sad… just because you’re born in the human race doesn’t mean you’re necessarily human, not having a single drop of emphaty in your body, not caring for another person’s well being at all, actually makes you more of a wild animal than a person, f y’all, hope your food gets cold really quickly, that you sit on a chewed bubblegum and that you run out of water mid washing your hair.
Exactly, like some people are so heartless smh
the audacity… the f audacity of this man, oh-my-god I’m about to throw hands.
Lord give me patience bc if you give me strength I will smoke his boots
REAL. LIKE JUST GO FIND ANOTHER FUCK BUDDY SEON IN YOU LITERALLY DO NOTHING FOR OUR BABY BOY
