there is no relationship dynamic i hate more in a bl than controlling possessive and abusive ML with an MC who is basically powerless and can only take all that the ML gives him. i don’t blame the MC for being like that because he’s in a tough situation but it’s still unpleasant to watch him basically be pushed around and treated badly based on the ML’s whims. i feel like the story could’ve worked 100x better if the relationship dynamic wasn’t so toxic. at this point it just seems like the author is just writing porn with random small plots in between because there is nothing else that is particularly interesting going on so far.

the ML’s personality is the main issue, the author just seems to be making him as toxic as possible for shock value. the ML doesn’t have to be as nice as the MC’s best friend, he could’ve still been a flawed character with room to grow.

i’m just randomly brainstorming but let’s say the ML developed a pretty callous personality because of whatever strict tiger parenting he faced as a hyper dominant alpha and then had to deal with his mother leaving, and now he’s sent abroad on his own because his dad doesn’t want to deal with him. he doesn’t know much about positive relationships and so at college he sleeps around and treats even his friendships like cold transactions. he ends up using the MC because he’s a beta who won’t influence him with pheromones and can’t get marked by him in the heat of the moment. then he goes through his rut, MC matures into an omega then yada yada same thing that happens in the webtoon. the ML is pissed he’s tied to someone he doesn’t know (he can’t remember because his rut makes him unconscious of his actions) but doesn’t look for them since he doesn’t like serious relationships. 5 years pass, he’s matured a lot, doesn’t use people like he used to, instead he’s cold to everyone and only focuses on business. now instead of the ML trapping the MC, why don’t we have the MC reluctantly come to him because he can’t afford their son’s medication and he knows the ML’s family owns the only company that produces it. he’s shocked by the fact MC is an omega and that they have a child, but he agrees to help them before his family finds out about them first. he doesn’t ask the MC to marry him nor forces him to quit his job since he doesn’t want anything serious but he agrees to coparenting as he sees his younger self in their son. and then their romance could gradually grow from there.

just like that, i feel like the story wouldn’t be so empty but idk those are just some random ideas

the only thing saving this webtoon is the art honestly

reading about yoohan crying in the novel was heartbreaking enough but seeing it in visual form is crushing ugh, poor guy

i see what the author is trying to do, the seme is already bad but they’ll make his dad and probably the rest of his family downright awful so he appears decent in comparison and his toxicity can be excused. the mc is already saying nonsense like “he was trying to look out for me” like oh brother. next chapter is probably going to be ml’s family trashing the mc to his face and the ml mildly defending the mc, making the mc start to see him in a positive light

they’ll finally fuck next chapter, if i remember correctly from the novel we’ll probably get 3/4 chapters worth of smut

the miscommunication is giving me a headache, the mc is so painfully dense

andrew is so hot omg

the repeated random panels focusing on the cctv camera are scaring me, i thought it was the ML using it to keep tabs on the MC but it was whirring even when they were together at the end… who’s watching them…

bro we’re at chapter 15 and i still can’t even tell what’s going on except them having sex constantly, can the plot move even a tiny bit

jihwan is literally sociopathic (not surprising considering his past) but as long as he doesn’t force himself on sooyoung, i couldn’t care less. he’s actually put in the effort to get sooyoung to like him without just doing as he pleases like gyujin did. i just want them to be happy together, i hope this doesn’t have a bad ending

i enjoyed this webtoon and liked the dynamic between the main couple but the way the mc behaves… how does a s tier secret agent who is supposedly the best of the best make so many mindless mistakes throughout the story he was almost ridiculously clumsy and clueless to the point it was a bit silly. he was not smooth at all, i’m surprised the ml didn’t catch on sooner
