i agree. that age gap when mc was a minor is very much NOT IT. this whole thing is very sketchy. Han is on very very very thin ice, im gonna start hoping mc has another dude for him later on
Meh, he was 17 or 18 then so Idt it is that big of a deal, sex hormones are pretty active for teens at that age. I'm guessing a 5-6 year age gap at most with han so not really shota and there seems to have been consent. In japan the age of consent is 13, what is it in korea?
Btw i really dislike dr han. He doesn't deserve to be paired with such a great guy. I want the MC with his megane bff.
No he was in middle school.
No I’m pretty sure he said he was a senior? And if 6 years passed and he’s in college that adds up about right
Ew I thought he was a senior in high school....so hmm, middle school. He'd be what 14 at most, han was in med school so he would be 22ish. So 8 year age gap but yeah a 14 yo mentality with a 22 year old seems wrong to me...I don't live in a society where 13 is the age of consent. Male or female where I'm from it is statutory rape even with both parties consent. BUT I have to respect this is a manhwa written from a different culture's pov so I won't judge.
he was a senior and korean highschool seniors are 18-19 years old.
He’s a senior
You know what I'm gonna read it again; when I read the Korean ver I remember it was middle school but it'd relieve me as well if he was in high school instead.
The problem isn’t whether or not you could label it shota, even if he was 17-18 and Han is “only” 5-6 years older that’s still a HUGE gap for that age. Han would be 23. Like I’m 21, but I still would not date an 18 year old. I talk to one and the age difference feels so obvious :/// just bc it’s legal doesn’t mean it isn’t shady. They kissed, and I think it’s a really weird and gross thing for the author to put into an otherwise good romance so I’m still reading it, but that kind of age difference even at 18 is bad
My mum and dad have a 9 year gap. Depends on age… you calling a lot of parents weird and gross. Chill out
Ok my bad I checked it again and it was in high school. Hyuk and glasses friend met in high school. He was probably 18-19 Korean age and if he went to military or took a break it'd make sense for him to be in college in 6 years.
he was 18-19 since he mentioned being a senior in high school but even if it’s ”legal” it’s still a little weird ig he didn’t think much of it considering he completely stopped contacting hyuk and never spoke of it again, i would think he did it on a whim and didn’t think much of it, at least i hope that’s the case cause if not…
That sounds like personal preference so I won't dispute it or agree with it.
Am I the only one who was uncomfortable with Han kissing our MC back then?? Like he was.... a minor..... like the age gap is fine at their current age bc they’re both adults but..... idk I just feel like that didn’t need to happen :///
