I keep re-reading this bc i haven't seen an uke as bratty and spoiled as wooyoung. It's so refreshing. Every bottom out there seems to be suffering from uncontrollable circumstances (poor, sick, in debt, orphaned), from the top (toxic, SA, a literal criminal), or both. It's nice to see a bottom who's a winner in life. He's a second generation rich who doesn't need to work, spoiled as the only omega in an alpha family and youngest child who lost his mom, married to an equally if not richer family, and has a doting husband that is just as obsessed with him. With those conditions, I'd be more surprised if he doesn't have any arrogance in his bones.

you summed it up perfectly! some dislike wooyoung for being an obnoxious, bratty crybaby but that’s exactly what i love about him. i find it charming that he’s spoiled and vocal about what he wants. as u said, it’s such a clean break from the usual martyr bottoms always getting the short end of the stick and forceful tops who keep getting their way. i didn’t mind them before but the same formula gets tiring eventually. the only other similar character i’ve seen is leo from driver’s high, too bad it’s only 20 or so chaps. if you do find any more with this flavor pls share. i’m getting desperate lol

If you like the bratty ukes who are not afraid to talk back at their tops and challenge them continuously, use them to their advantage etc. You’ll definitely love:

I don't get freeloaders like this. Even in a normal, non-apocalyptic society we don't just get things for free. We pay most of it with taxes. Not just income tax, even when we buy things we pay taxes on that too. Roads, schools, infrastructure. Taxes everywhere.
If they don't contribute ofc they're not gonna get anything.

Lol tons of people right now don't even understand what their taxes are doing. You loads of people asking for lower taxes while simultaneously demanding better schools/infrastructure/services, etc.
(though what we could do is lower taxes on the poor and increase them for the wealthy, but politicians aren't incentivized to do that unfortunately)

Henry def wasn't as good to victor as everyone imagined. If he was, dr. V would've reacted better upon seeing heart. Because a person who is truly loved will show it. But no. Dr. V instantly recognized dick, meaning they had sex often. And he's most concerned about head because likes henry's face. But no i miss you or anything to heart. Maybe henry's "love" is unfamiliar to victor
Off tangent but i don't understand how in a system where concubinage is legal, there can still be illegitimate children. Like, just bring her home bro
Disclaimer: I don't know how you'll read this, and I am an overthinker. U might read this in an angry tone but no I AM NOT ANGRY, JUST EXPLAINING
So, in Ancient Korea Concubinage is legal but they are frowned and looked down upon. So basically it will be like this, The Status of the legitimate wife and their children are higher than the concubine. The child of the concubine won't be allowed to call her mother but only aunt, the mother will be the legitimate wife.
Now, your question is how could there be an illegitimate child?
There could be many situations but the most plausible one is that his mother is a commoner and therefore, his father did not marry her. or another possible explanation will be that despite being a concubine, they are frowned upon and respected or acknowledged as wife so he is called an illegitimate child
THAT'S ALL, THANK YEWWW
not respected*
Or could also be that the child wad conceived in an affair and to avoid scandal the mom and emperor had to marry but yeh
Yea but where is this plot from?
The drama Seojun is doing, probably. That's why OP said "Off tangent" 'cause it's not really directly connected to the main story.
Ohhh.... Sorry. I didn't know that phrase. So it just went over my brain. ( ̄∇ ̄")
Ohh, that's okay bro, even I forgot that phrase existed. Fuck math fr HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yes i understand all this that's why i'm baffled why a father would let their child be an illegitimate child. An illegitimate child isn't even allowed to be written in the family tree/genealogy, which means he doesn't have any inheritance rights. A concubine son can at least carry the family name in case something happens to the legitimate children. In the end, I think it's the father's fault lol
this is what i got from reading too much cn novels (although the one we're currently reading is korean)
the noble men rarely or never marries the maids they impregnate unless he loves her or the child accomplishes something (like becoming an official) so they need to up the child's status by elevating the mother's position. if you're a maid hired for a noble man it implicitly means that you may or may not have sex with him. like once you're hired you're labeled as the master's woman. In china i think these maids were called tongfang which iirc means to have sex.the maids are usually commoners or in some cases from fallen noble families. there's no point in marrying them since there's no benefit to the household and they mostly look down on them. that was just how it was back then.
typing all of this makes me rmb a cn novel i've read a few years ago and it's making want to reread again
Yeah it rly wasn't fair for women back then (and honestly, even now). that's why my og post was more "men are pigs irresponsibly sowing their seeds" and not "oh woe what troubles could the man have had"
