bruh, stopping a panic attack with a...kiss.?
As dumb as it seems, it's distracting and forces you to control your breathing so it honestly works pretty well
you got any experience?
I would sooner knock someone's teeth out than let them kiss me, I just know I've seen it work
It's just because it makes your brain redirect quickly and forces breathing control like I said. Slapping someone and then covering their mouth immediately with plastic would also probably achieve the same result
got recommended from tt and they said the preferred the ending and i honestly expected "cool, the puppy love crush wins" but now I've read this and see how it defo should've gone differently.
while i do love karam (i rlly do) as much as junseo, the story's development made it seem junseo and mc got more depth together. for one, junseo's background story was shown more than karam's nonexistent one.
this made karam look perfect, flawless—an enigma and all we know mc likes him for being cool. he doesn't even show much emotions. in contrast, junseo was laid bare for us. i could even argue that junseo had more screentime with mc.
it seemed like the author originally intended for junseo to be the endgame but scraped that idea last minute to be "different". I'd say this is a bittersweet and boring ending. But hey, i like to think there's more to happen in the future for the characters
6.5/10 good for a light read. Not a well fleshed out story but not problematic. The only flaw is the writing but characters are sweet n likeable
as much as i love the ml, i miss the group bonding more
i like three leads, but ngl mu ryang make me roll over the bed out of frustration for his ideals. hahaha.
Interestingly, despite the hostility and fight between the characters, they're all so fun that you can't help be okay with their actions. But the character that frustrates me the most is that new general brown hair who's in love w the female guard (which i dub thee Shit Hair).
it seems plain to me that he's ignorant and power-hungy, a mix of both the crown prince and mu ryang, in the worst way possible.
The crown prince is power-hungry because he wants to rule over a nation that will prioritize talent rather than blood and status. Mu Ryang is ignorant yet still desire to display mercy and peace
purely out of my own immaturity, i hope female guard doesn't reciprocate Shit Hair's feelings and he dies, dumbassss!!
warning to this chapter, it has a jumpscare! I got scared
???? felt like the author was writing every bit of the story with the intent of "hm, how can i make my readers more shocked than the last one"
dropped this bc it felt like the development was quite forced, even the romance part of every character felt sudden! lol
I will say that it’s somebody that wasn’t reading for such a long long time came back read the chapter 11 and 12 was like wait. What in the flipping fuck read the first chapter and completely agree with you because it feels too overbearing it stops feeling calculating when you’re doing dumb shit like this.
When the first few chapter came out I really enjoyed this. I was gonna read the novel(original source for this manga) but saw reviews saying that it sucked. Nlg I was really surprised but not at the same time ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Mind saying where I can read the original novel? Is it translated?

jp light novel usually short and concise description, 1st pov narration and sometimes confused dialogue bcs it's not stated who's the one saying. While it also has questionable content and lots of trigger warning, it's nice for those love this type of novel and finished tl for the main story :3
Wow thank you!
I like how he chose Hitoshi in the end. Hitoshi is hella funny when asleep and cute w/ his glasses.
I don't think their relationship would last long since I never got the sense that Mah (ML) will be satisfied that kind of lifestyle in the long term. But hey, I still like the fact that they ended up together. Bunch of cuties<3 I also like that each of the main character redemption had define quirks
Also, Hitoshi's mother?? Hello??? She got one hell of a story of her own lmao
I think they still have quite the chance though, since the ML lost his family (got his death faked) back then because he got into that heist shit with the ex, so he would probably prefer to have some sense of stability (that's why he bailed). Even if there are some problems that come up, I think they would talk and address it and deal with the issue. Well, that's my take though .
agreed. feel like mah finds comfort in the mc’s personality and is entertained easily by him. i think mah is over the rebellious lifestyle and just wants someone to be soft and a home for him, someone who really cares about him and not his grand ambitions, which is exactly what mc provides.
he wanted connection, but also to not be restricted in his own person. since mc accepts him as he is despite all his flaws, id like to believe they could last long ahhaha. but those are just my thoughts!! i am glad they ended up together too and would love more (esp abt mom) in the future if possible~
Totally! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
ahh, i think it's been a long time since i got charmed by both leads in a straight romance
also, the art??? the art in the game is so beautiful and I can't believe the artist (or is it a team of artists?) managed to draw different avatar design whenever the players change clothes. I'm placing this at the top of my list of my favorite game art styles, just next to TGMND
