YEEEEEEES KARIN HAS JUMPED INTO THE PICTURE, I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR KARIN AND NADIA TO MEET HEHEHEHE
Ayooo, I can't believe its been a WHOLE YEAR! I swear to god I remember when Jinx was announced and the first chapter was released but it feels like it was a few months ago, not a whole year.
On another hand, I'm really attached to Dan and seeing him treated like that breaks my heart but I'm hoping that after a few ups and lots of downs, it all turns out well. I'm a sucker for angst. Usually a lot of BLs go like this (and there are far worse than this when it comes to messed up toxic relationships) so I'm hoping eventually we see Dan being happy. I also like that the author is self-aware that this is a rocky start and making it slowburn cause life & people aren't easy. Plus I wanna see Jaekyung FUCKING SUFFER. If you don't like this that you think nobody should be reading, just go read something you like instead. It's not that hard to click away and ignore this.
I also wanna see more of that actor AU even if its a one-shot :3
Wow that for sure was one hell of a ride. I'm glad its over. And no wonder the wife could not communicate her needs, all of her life she thought it was shameful and the one time she tried to admit who she was, her husband shuts her down immediately and his solution is for her to pray everyday until all the impure thoughts are washed away since they belong to Satan. Like jeeeeeeeeez
Still, it's just material and cheating was abound to happen but I'm glad the wife is free and the secretary got his revenge and the husband has to pay for what he did. Cause NO WAY did he really think that praying would wash away his sins. I get that the world is cruel and no one plays fair but come on bro (￣∇￣")
I thought it was gonna end on a sweet note with the kisses but no, he just had to go crazy. I hope that he comes to his senses in the next chapter or he's going to get punch istg
This is just weirdly rushed, Ian is out of character and every resource that has helped him before is just like nowhere?? What about the ghost dude, Jin, who was supposed to help him? By the pacing of this, it honestly feels like Ian is having a nightmare rather than actually experiencing it. Wouldn't be surprised if that's one of the possibilities cause Ian is too smart to just allow everything to go downhill like this so quickly and letting it get to his head but then again, these things can unfortunately happen out of nowhere and Ian is having no time to process.
Also it it just me or does the dude that approach Ian in the bathroom of the chapter look like Jin? I wouldn't be surprised if somehow this is Jin's doing cause the Grim Reaper did warn Ian to not let "him" influence him and we have seen the way Jin thinks so it could be that.
This is why communication is super important but I can't blame how this situation is unfolding. Let's not forget these characters are children, in terms of emotional intelligence. Most times, most or some of us, at their age didn't know how to handle things that need a lot of emotional intelligence and maturity. I love all these characters, especially Yeonwoo cause he's like a little brother to me but dear lord, what Yeonwoo needs is not a girlfriend or whatever is happening right now. Right now he needs a emotional support group to fix the shitty mindset he developed over the years.
I don't like the idea of separating everyone but if things process like they are, then maybe Yeonwoo will need to separate himself from everyone cause they are making things worse and be placed in therapy and with people that can help him through the trauma that he has experienced. Actually, they all need to be placed in therapy cause lord, none of them are normal. Yes I agree with Haesol that Yeonwoo's codependency is toxic & unhealthy but the way it got into Junhyuk's mind to completely cut Yeonwoo off is NOT the way to go. Yes they must learn how to distance themselves so they can find themselves as individuals but Yeonwoo won't fucking understand that unless they sit down and talk about it. But also Yeonwoo has to realize he has a problem and be willing to change because forcing him to change will only lead to Yeonwoo to retaliate.
Haesol has no idea why Yeonwoo is acting like this and I understand because she has been withhold information from the guy she is in a relationship with but its hard to talk about if it still causes Yeonwoo to spiral but Haesol should know IF they want to be in a relationship long-term and that SHE needs to understand it can be hard and BOTH need to TRUST each other to open up and have communication. Let's not forget Haesol has her own issues and trauma and has had no adult in her life (as far as we know) to help her. If anything, she is most likely out of touch with her emotions and can't empathize with others cause she had no one in her life to teach her that. She also needs to go to therapy cause most likely she wants Yeonwoo to think like her but her way of thinking is not normal either. Its probably hard for all of them to communicate cause they are children and don't know how to.
This would be a great moment to make use of adults that can help these children cause teens & children should be able to know how to ask for help from older people in their life. Its okay to ask for help and even if you don't like the truth kr having to face certain things, you will never mature & develop into a healthy individual. Reading this is giving me a headache but I'm sticking around cause Yeonwoo is the reason I keep reading cause I relate a lot to him and want to see him shine like the sun as the sunshine he used to be as a adult by the end of it. In the end, all 4 need to sit down and have a full honest conversation and listen to each other and understand where they are coming from WITHOUT trying to defend their side cause no one is in the wrong but neither are they right. If not, maybe time apart and finding their own emotional support groups can help them, whether it be friends, teachers, or parents. But COMMUNICATION IS IMPORTANT AND THINGS WON'T GET RESOLVED IF THESE CHILDREN DON'T COMMUNICATE, gosh lord.
And before anyone comes at me about how annoying it must be to Haesol about Yeonwoo's need of Junhyuk. I don't blame you, it probably feels shitty and I would feel anger too cause its like "what about me? Am I not enough?" but you can't expect Yeonwoo to make Junhyuk aside since BOTH boys have known each other longer and have gone through so much shit to just throw their whole entire bond out the window. I do blame that its Yeonwoo's unhealthy codependency but we must also understand that its a trauma response and Yeonwoo has learned to lean on Junhyuk out of everyone. Haesol and Yeonwoo have known each other for what? A year as classmates and a few weeks or months as significant others? Its NOT a lot to where the trust and importance has been developed. They just got together out of a random confession but they have never gotten the moment to really know each other to say "yes I do like you" right now their relationship is based on whatever attracted them to each other but not enough to say they like each other, which is not bad or wrong, since they can learn as they spend time together BUT WHEN THE FUCK HAVE THEY SPEND TIME TOGETHER?? They have gone on 3 dates at most.
Yeah, what Yeonwoo said must've been a punch to Haesol and Yeonwoo in a sense has NOT let Haesol become a part of his life completely which is wrong but not wrong. Its complicated when it comes to these kind of things. Yeonwoo is definitely not thinking about the emotional impact it can have on Haesol but also Haesol has not communicated on what she feels and how its making her feel. But then again, I don't think she has ever learned how to communicate her emotions, or emotions that are new to her and put them out in a healthy way. If they can both sit down and communicated their emotional and romantic needs, they may be able to develop far more cause Yeonwoo must learn that he can lean on others & show that he cares about them while Haesol must also learn to talk about her feelings without judgements or fear but must also learn that you have to show you care and have needs in a relationship, in other words they have a lot to learn and its complicated when it comes to love as teenagers.She should also communicated her thoughts and emotions when Yeonwoo is not in a emotional distress, maybe Yeonwoo will realize how much his codependency is toxic & unhealthy but how things are going, its only going to get worse from here.
Both need to work on their issues before coming together as significant others if they want to continue a relationship in the future. If not, this will just end up hurting them more than ever.
I’ve literally never commented on this site but I just want to give you your flowers for your commentary. I agree with you full heartedly. I think a lot of people rn are way too ready to want to blame yeonwoo for his responses but like we just saw in how many chapters how severe his trauma is???? Not to mention we saw previous classmates/friends abandon him for the bullying. So ofc he would cling to the person who seemed to not give up on him or blame him for his own abuse. I don’t think Haesol is wrong about there needing to be some sort of discussion about their co-dependency but like you said she does not know Yeonwoo enough to make those claims nor should she think she has the right to tell other people what’s healthy behavior or not when she’s also withholding information about herself. I just at every update do not understand this desire from readers to want to find every reason to hate yeonwoo’s decisions/reactions when we’ve literally been shown why he does what he does and that even after everything he wants to love and trust others so badly. He’s caught between fight or flight at all times. And imagine feeling like you could finally do that with a partner only to have her tell you your one form of safety is abnormal. I know I’d be devastated. Anyways sorry to bog your replies and i know I’m not explaining myself very well but I just wanted to again say thank you for sharing your beautifully articulated thoughts.
I have never commented on this site either! First time for everything haha. But reading all the comments sure pushed me to finally say something. Also thank you for your kind words and sharing your thoughts! And no need to apologize about adding your comment, its only right to share your thoughts too! I believe you explained yourself well enough and I understand and agree too! Thank you once again for sharing too <3
I really really agreee with your thoughts....that's what I've been trying to say. Junhyuk and Yeonwoo have much deeper dynamics, they go way long back!! Haesol and Yeonwoo need much more development as of now. They have no real connection till now - as far as i know!!!
The queen missing Lloyd just made my day (づ￣ ³￣)づ I've waiting for so long for the Queen to start showing signs hehe. COME LLOYD YOU GOTTA WORK FASTER TO GO BE WITH YOUR WIFEEEEE
