Don’t get me wrong I love BWAT and her works. But she really needs to tone it down with the trope where characters meet when one of them is a child and then end up in a romantic relationship once that child becomes an adult.
Like I get it it’s not technically pedophilia or grooming, esp when they only met once and then reconnect later after a timeskip, but it's still weird and ppl should be aware of that. It's fiction and all so I don't really care that much tho still felt kinda icky but don't try to normalize it or act like it’s okay in real life. Personally, I would never date someone I first met when they were a child, even if they’re now an adult.
I’ve noticed BWAT using this trope more often in her recent works.Like In "Taming the Tiger" side stories, the MC literally waits for Beom to turn 18 so that he can sleeps with him,which is super weird. And don't even get me started on "Miscreants and Mayhem?" I didn’t even try reading it bc the relationship is between a stepfather and stepson eughhh
so the dad basically raised him, and I saw panels where the top was lit calling the bottom “dad" !?? Hell nah vro
it feels like she’s undermining potentially great stories by adding these weird dynamics.
Smyrna and capri and dear 00 have been really good so far and prolly my faves from her
Anyways that’s just my personal opinion btw hope no one gets defensive over it :33

And let me guess... The younger one is the top. This trope is so overdone it's boring and predictable eughh
Lmfao ur so right it's so common in almost all of her works.
Now that you mention it, it's actually pretty common theme in her works. Don't tell me this child is paired with an adult?
Okay spoiler so
Only ch1 is released for now and the child is supposed to take a bride and they send the mc who's a grown ass man for u know, political reasons (as expected ) and then 14 years old later when the child turns into an adult he's going to pursue the mc and obviously going to end up together....
Chilee~~~ ever since they botched the ending of Serene bird, I've been so over them.
HELLO??? i only read s1 of taming the tiger beom was a minor?????? i thought the mc was already making him sleep with other people at the beginning of the story??
Girl Ion remember well it's been so long but I won't be surprised since she's been doing this for a while now
i wouldn't be surprised either eugh that's so icky...
Right.....btw, I finally finished translating Diamond Dust , only three side stories left ,now i can finally read in peace heh
NOO WAYY YOU FINISHED THE TRANSLATION BEFORE I FINISHED READING 35 CHAPTERS BABE I'M CRYINGGG
Girlll I js know that I'll finish reading all the chapters and u'll still be saying the same thing by then
NOOOO I'LL READ IT THIS WEEKEND I'M SORRYRYOWHOWHGOIWHWTWOTOIHGIH
U better do it
Damn, I was actually really excited for this manhwa but not anymore how disappointing but not surprised. I personally am not a huge fan of any of her works mostly because of this reason and overall her works are quite boring and bland
Same i was so excited bc the characters are so pretty but welp :// i won't say her works are bland but they'd be really great if she were to stop ruining it by adding these weird dynamics
