They dont feel bad for the uke? Damn.... if i could i would take the poor guy with me and be the mom he never had....
I have this trauma but not with my family but my ex. I thought beatings and getting hurt is normal since he will comfort me after. I was really really used it that I even believe leaving is much worst. We need help to those people around us, it took 2 years before I get out of the abuse. I even gave the person money just to get praise from him. Know that it you might think your not helping when you voice it out to us.... Your wrong, you just need to tell us what to do and slap to our face that there is more to it out there. This manga triggered me the reason I dont read all of the text and scrolling real fast just to finish one chapter.
I'm so sorry to hear that, 2 years is not a joke to go through and I'm glad you were able to get out of the situation!
If ever some statements in my comment has made you uncomfortable, please know I do not mean harm. If the manga itself is relapsing your trauma, I suggest you don't read it at all.
All the best!! xx
Its okay, I am just also trying to expose myself to this kind of emotions now. To be honest its still hard for me this days because I get suspicious and panic attack when someone trying to cross boundaries I set for them. It just sucks, really. I find it more comfy when I can control what is coming for me but get scare when I get attach to someone and have them predict what my feelings are. Still thanks, I appreciate the comments and your response. I just get so emotional to response like that.
This is honestly disturbing. Trigger warning is present almost in all chapters so read at YOUR OWN RISK.
Uke severely suffered abuse from childhood (from what he has been narrating that his father abused him as a child), this in turn, had psychological effects on him. If an abuse has been going on for a very long time, especially at the early stages of an individual's life, it is not easy to recover from it, and this has been clearly portrayed in the Uke's narrative. Haeyoung became his lighthouse as he was the only one he was able to go to and reach out to whenever he experiences abuses from his own father.
The beatings he unfortunately experienced somehow gave him this mentality that it's okay to go through such physical hurtings, Haeyoung obviously did the same physical abuse around the time his own father was also subjecting him to. The only difference that Uke seems to have distinguished between Haeyoung and his father is that, unlike his father, Haeyoung showed him bits of kindness that his own family failed to give.
I see a lot of people commenting that they don't feel bad for the uke, that despite him knowing himself he is subjected to abuse he refuse to leave. It is never easy to overcome trauma and abuse, Haeyoung became an important part of his childhood trauma, and this makes it very difficult for him to let go. He seemed to have highlighted in the manhwa that he's much better off going through the beatings than live a life without Haeyoung because that comfort would cause severe mental effects on him.
I am very much interested to see how this would pull through, but basing from spoilers from the novel that others has been sharing— I will need my snacks and tissues since shits not gonna be a smooth ride.
