did anything ever happen between him and that gangster dude? i haven't caught up in a while and yes i have toxic taste
just realized that right after the shooting in the middle of all the chaos brett was calm enough to take that blond bully's phone, UNLOCK THE phone with his face (crying like that dude is dead brett?!!) to put into play some scheme fjkldsal like what a reminder of how cold and scarily rational brett can be under his super chill exterior
also the interesting juxtaposition of him looking kind of unmoved by hayden's confession (hayden saying that he knew that brett knew about his feelings all along - though i think brett was less surpsied by hayden having feelings for him but more that hayden would expose himself like that) vs him having the blondie shoot himself in the shoulder as revenge (???) for hayden???
god brett is just sooo interesting and fascinating
I feel you so much, I keep rereading to analyze brat's character to see if i missed anything or misunderstood phrases. I'm obsessed with this, i cant wait for season 2
i love how it actually feels like a college hookup a bit awkward but they're both into it..taein is so charming too i love it when people laugh during sex and i enjoy the dynamic where he's kind of gently teasing jaeho despite being younger
i'm so reaadyy i can't wait for the translations
like it would actually be so hot
Hoping to have it in the side story who knows the author might spoil us
this batshit soap opera happening purely in ML's head fjdaslkfjsadlkfj why is he doing the most LMAO tbh want to see him utterly embarassed when he realizes how he's misunderstood everything
I lowkey love his neurotic vibe. Like on paper he's this chaebol seme who has power over the other guys job; but he's so clearly on the defensive (while the other guy doesnt even know they're playing)
SPOILERS
feel like with every chapter i'm like "what a banger chapter" but YEA whatt a banger chapter. kind of adore how we see brett being pleased with himself/enjoying his scheme come into fruition (with the leaked video) like the manipulative little menace he is. but then his shock when he sees that clip of hayden playing dead on that tv show - you can tell he has some lingering ptsd (?) or worry over hayden and from what we can tell he goes to find hayden afterwards at the gym too to check up on him!
(side note: i feel like hayden might become an actor ie. thematically taking more of the "active" role in this story and the relationship with brett. maybe he'll get attention from that tv role?)
BRETT AND HAYDEN'S DIALOGUE MWAHH hayden is very impressive here, he's appealing to Brett's way of interacting with the world by "negotiating" with him but he's making it clear what his terms are this time around (but also the most romantic terms ever)
hayden: you always mentioned that you would make sure i would get equal value out of our "transaction" but i don't want any of the stuff you've given me so far ie. money, gifts, etc - all of which is just easy for you to give bc you don't lose anything from it. the only thing that is of value for me is your feelings - if you want to offer something in this transaction you have to give those. if the kind of "cool" relationship you want is one where no one is invested then sorry, i'm not "cool" in that way. you can decide whether or not you want to be with someone as "not cool" as me.
(so hayden is basically like: here are MY terms. take it or leave it)
brett: wow...seems like you're stating things pretty one-sidedly and like you don't want me to accept those terms..are you trying to get me to leave or am i mistaken?
and then hayden PULLS HIM AND MAKES OUT WITH HIM and they're both super into it but then hayden pulls away and is liek "do you get it"? basically showing brett like DUH i want you to accept these terms but i'm not going to humiliate myself for them/i'm going to stick strong to the terms i've given. (brett looks so cute and pouty at the end at not getting his way for once!!) i love this manhwa soo much!!!
It’s pretty funny how Brett controls Hayden like a wife controlling her attractive husband, but he always acts so calm and pretends not to care about the relationship, lol. As if he wasn’t freaking out when he saw Hayden on TV and immediately went to interrogate him. Hayden didn’t even have to answer, but he still honestly responded like a proper boyfriend, lol. I love how Brett acted like a cold-blooded gangster in the previous episodes, but now in front of Hayden, he’s like a stubborn kid, haha.
If it's not to much trouble could you please tell us non-korean speakers what Hayden says in ch 27? I am trying to spoil myself, I can't keep waiting.
Hayden reveals he played a role in a TV show and forgot to tell Brett because they were both busy. He’s trying to rediscover himself and plans to switch gyms, because he can’t afford the membership by himself. Hayden emphasizes that their previous agreement is over, and if Brett wants to continue, he needs to show sincerity instead of offering material things. Finally, Hayden asks Brett to make a decision about their relationship: stay with old fashion guy like him with genuine feelings, or leave. And when Brett said Hayden just behave like this to push him away isn’t he, Hayden annoying with that, he pull Brett to the charging roon and kiss the hell out of him, and end it with twisted Brett’s poor nipple, “Is this enough to answer your question?” And leave like a boss lol
Thank you! !!!!!!
