its not that deep's Favorite

Some of y’all lack critical thinking skills.

1st. He is getting a backstory BECAUSE a well-written story must have convincing characters. Nobody is bad just to be bad, even if the reasoning is wrong every action and behaviour is motivated.

2nd. I cried big ass tears reading this chapter. It’s not just seeing him abandoned and beaten and rejected. It’s also understanding that abuse has LONG LASTING consequences. If you think you were abused yet have no trace of such history in your behaviour or reactions at times, then maybe you weren’t really abused. Abuse WILL rewire your brain. Especially if it occurs during childhood because that’s when your brain is developing and you’re still learning about the world around you and how you relate to it.
It broke my heart that Jaekyung has been so alone his entire life and because of the abuse he endured he doesn’t even have the TOOLS to get out of it. Do y’all know nobody that’s constantly self sabotaging and is stuck in an endless loop of doom because of it ???

You want him to KNOW shit he never learned. He doesn’t know how to be a good friend because he never had any. He doesn’t KNOW how to care or express his feelings because nobody did that for him. It doesn’t mean that he did nothing wrong. He’s been a dick to Dan so many times and Dan’s story is sad too. (Sometimes when Dan told him about his behaviour he took actions and changed) (When the doctor told him to do more foreplay with Dan, he did) It’s just unrealistic to project such harsh judgement on him when he clearly feels remorse, he clearly loves Dan, but has no idea how to salvage their relationship. He’s literally giving up everything he’s ever known and work towards to get Dan back. He’s just going the wrong way about it.

It’s logical and I’m happy y’all are not Mingwa cause y’all don’t have her brain to put out such an entertaining and complex show. Y’all would suck ass as writers. It’s logical. The man is a boxer. Professional boxer who grew up alone, abused and bullied, his only hope and escape is this agressive ass sport. Aggressive sport in which you HAVE to be tough, ACT tough to thrive in. He has NO anger management because he USES the anger as a fuel to win his matches. That’s why he blows up so often on Dan who ends up as collateral damage because Dan on the contrary never learned to grow a backbone. At least he can’t stand up for himself if he fears the opponent. So I think it’s mainly miscommunication, Dan should’ve put his foot down and even slapped some sense into Jaekyung when he suggested Dan might’ve betrayed him. Look how alone Jaekyung is, everyone at the gym only respect him because of his skills, that’s also why he doesn’t hangout with them or get friendly. Probs because he knows he’s a lot to handle and he’s above begging others for friendship. Also that would require him to change and he clearly is reluctant to let his protective mechanism go. Jaekyung expresses himself the only way he knows how to : through violence. Be it sex, his words or the ring. He was violent with the actor dude too. And could only express his jealousy by torturing Dan sexually. (Hot though idc)


3rd. Jaekyung and Dan are both broken people and their relationship is toxic… But (call me fucked up I don’t care) I think they’re perfect for each other. Dan was literally parentified. Taking on responsibilities he had no business taking on at such a young age. He never learned who he was, nor how to live for himself. His grandma is also a sort of crutch (sorry gma) he’s totally codependent and that’s why he doesn’t want to live without her and is subconsciously trying to kill himself before she croaks. That’s why he’s having trouble saying no or putting up boundaries. That’s also why the only way he knows to communicate his feelings is though acts of service instead of communicating clearly what he wants. He’s not used to asking for what he wants and expecting to get it. Or work for it. He’s a pushover. On the opposite hand you have Jaekyung that’s just selfish. Because that’s what it took to make it, that’s what he knows that works. I think he loves Kim Dan but doesn’t respect him. Jaekyung only respects strength. When Dan gave him that punch that one time I think that’s when he got a little consideration for him. But aside from that he clearly is hyper independent and believes he need nobody.

That’s when it gets interesting. Kim Dan started to learn how to stand up for himself because of his proximity to Jaekyung. Jaekyung intimidates him but he also admires Jaekyung. I think Kim Dan never allowed himself to step into the spotlight and be okay with being seen the way Jaekyung is. With all the inconveniences of fame considered. (Jaekyung gets constantly criticised, he’s super anxious about his performances to the point where it’s making him sick (headaches, insomnia) and insane (why the fuck would you compete when your body is broken ???). Maybe he’s a little envious. He spent his whole life caring for someone else, maybe he wants attention and care from others to. Maybe he want to be celebrated too. As for Jaekyung he’s learned to express his feelings a little bit more. He’s learned to care about others a little bit more. He’s learned to shift his focus to his personal life and to try and develop it. Instead of making his career his everything. I would never recommend that pairing in real life but since this is fiction and entertaining I LOVE IT <33 I can’t wait to see their relationship development and their growth as individuals. I love stories with meat and conflict <3 so cathartic <3

oml yall just sum heartless mfs yes hes done a LOT of shit thats awful but goddamn its still awful he was a kid then he didnt do all this awful shit then. we arnt feeling sorry for the person who did all those things we are feeling sorry for that little kid who had to steal milk to survive

well i didnt expected that, lol my last comment where I said ill have zero sympathy. now I got a bit. still he has no right to treat others like that, you are no better than the man who also put you through hell.

Other than that time when he made Dan use all tht sex toys and exposed him to heesung w/out him knowing (ugh I'll never forgive jaekyung for that) he's quite pitiful for now,,,hopefully the author is not going to use the pitiful childhood backstory too much for the redemption arc

Now we know why he likes milk, wears perfume daily, hates alcohol, softens around older people, knows nothing about love, works hard to be the best.

Okay I scrolled the comment section quite a bit and im not surprised at all. Reading comprehension and media literacy had been on the decline for a while now and this story in itself is also hard to keep up with so I dont really blame the horus vs Seth shooters here lol but i wish I could see more discourse and word exchange by ppl who understand the moral ambiguity of this story and dont place horuseth in definite white vs black box. Also anyone up to discuss horus the elder theories and how things are slowly leading up to it.? Im a bit thrown off by thoth and maats words but im still holding on that theory

For anyone reading this. Imma remind yall theres this theory about the ennead siblings past life that also correlates with actual mythology. Since this manhwa is following actual story broadly with its own rendition I still believe we might come across that theory as well. Esp when its been sprinkled here n there in the story via murals and hieroglyphics by mojito.


Acc to mural translation the lines were vague but they talk about past life horus who we refer to as horus the elder and apparently he n Seth were in love and horus the elder steals smth (which is think might be the eye of ra? Also Seth kills horus and isis does smth to bring him back( I think by giving birth?) The og ennead had a 5th sibling which is horus it seems and now we are in present where nobody has their memory. Im a bit confused by maat n thots words regarding Osiris whether if he remembers his past life or if he was the og wadjet successor but I hope we will get there soon

If y'all can't wait for the trans, here you goooo

I think I'd kms if I had her proportions, I think the back pain would be too much for me to handle

bro fucking finally. so many things....idk where to start.

ok, so I know everyone was pissed off cause jaekyung yanked dan out the car in ch 69, but like idk if y'all ever been around someone you care about that don't take care of themselves, but it's actually so frustrating. especially if you want better for them.
jaekyung has never been known to have consideration or compassion nor do i think he even knows how to show those things either as a person living alone. so his behavior isn't new.

i'm glad we're finally getting some backstory, AFTER NEARLY 3 FUCKING YEARS. MY GOD.
idk if jae just came to realization he got feelings for our boy, or if he realized he's getting sick. but for my delusion, i'm going with feelings lmao

he never gave them a ride home after all. dan dipped still in his thoughts. dan was right, not the time or place. left his ass there. shirt hanging out, disheveled LOL. that big fuckin oaf knocked the wind outta dan. UGHHHH i loveeeeeee yes. good stuff. i also liked dan acknowledging his own behavior too. that's a good start.

so next chapter the director tells dan about feisty baby jae? can't wait. though tbh i still want a dan backstory too. like why doesn't he have any parents? where'd all the debt come from? you think mingwa does some shit like they met as kids headass story lmao? hope not. either way I am locked the fuck in. 10 days really ain't shit when 90 fucking days passed and NOTHING.

bro idk if its js me but i think that the story would be 10x better if dan was the mean one, think bout it. Dan has every right to angry and upset about his life like he dont even know where tf is parents are(idk if they dead but) and grandma is fighting on life support. i feel like the story should be like “dan hate jjk because he doesn’t think he all that..but despite hating he needs to make money so he works for him..” and so on and on jjk would be the nice one and not a fucking asshole. i also feel like the sex should have come up in later chapters instead of being in chapter 2 bc i feel that just ruined the book, also the load sharks is also unnecessary to me like the bitch is already poor as shit why make it worst and plus it was only mentioned in one chap?. AND B4 YALL START COMING AT MY NECK THIS IS JUST A OPINION THING i really liked the plot of the story and i thought it would be different bc yk a “doctor” and an wrestler but at the end ig it just like any other book. also probably an unpopular opinion but kim dan should js kill himself or maybe just let his grandma go

(as at chapter 44)

tbh i'm a bit confused about the direction this is going. one chapter it feels tense like Andrew has some dark intention and then the next, it's just cute and sweet.

but from what i'm seeing is... Andrew might be possessive and obsessive to the point he'd do anything for Luke.

and then it seems like this is just a story about a guy who's discovering love and romance. Andrew is experiencing all these beautiful things with Luke.

it's been great so far and the tension and unpredictability of this story is so interesting, you don't always come across this kind of bl. we don't really know what's gonna happen next... and who Andrew really is... oooooooo can't wait for next chapters ^^

anybody got raws

but that's just men in general, and I'd choose manipulative dude over manipulative cheating dude thank you

Somebody can send me the link of the Novel please. Thanks.

I know this sounds weird, but they have been mentioning children and birth for a bit now since Seth and Horus got it on in the temple, it doesn’t help they have been suggesting the gods are either both Female/Male/Genderless enough for me to think it could be a possibility. And Horus has lost his “instincts” so maybe his “instincts” have been passed on?

I knew it was gonna be Zeus. My rapist radar is never wrong

they better have the steamiest hungriest hottest first kiss, idc about the smut, the first kiss better be good after all this edging >.<

You know for something ain't omegaverse, Eunsan looks so breedable with all respect.

ian’s tattoo is a snow covered mountain cause eunsan’s name means snow capped mountain
