man this is the best comment ever SO REAL
Thank you for this comment. Yeah I‘m usually someone who always tries to find fair ground with everyone but at some point I got sick of seeing all these negative comments about this story that is truly one-off my favourites for its plot and art…. So idk I just snapped, not caring for the hate I knew I would get for it. But thanks fort he advice
Where did I ever say that others have to have the same opinion as I? Nowhere. Injustice wanted to state my opinion in the same way as everyone else does, only mine is different from the masses on here apparently. Also just one question; why do you even read the story when you hate literally everything about it? Because honestly there are people out there, like me , who really love this story and are excited for the new chapters but then they come to the comment section excited to talk about it and only read comments like this that totally banish their fave webtoon…. And honestly it really sucks. Like I mean do what you want, it’s a free world and you are free to voice your opinion like we all are, but just think about if you really want to continue reading this story when you actually just hate it… like I would not continue reading a story that I don’t find even a but good…….
Thank you very much :) I also like my username too! It perfectly represents who I am and what I stand for and I am glad you think so too! Glad you did not call the authorities on me yet haha…. Since we seem to make judgements now based on usernames and all.
Oohh thanks :))
"It represents who I am"..yeah get of that phone rn. The judgement is based on your comments rather your username. Username just points out a quarter of what your comment can be based on. And your welcome ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Very evident you are on here chronically. You can bash a story even though it's fiction and no one "actually gets hurt". If the writing and plot are bad, people in turn complain. No one complaining will result in more trashy manwhas popping up since creators will assume it's a good format.
You comment something on a controversial manwha, you open up the possibility of being judged.
I can dispute the other part about differentiating reality from fiction but why bother.
I cannot believe a simple concept like this has to be explained yet here we are.

Preach!!
I don't think that's quite the case? One can certainly be desensitised to violence or acts of violence, or can even fail to differentiate between abuse and love in a relationship, but I don't think they're people who'll initiate violence
That's way too far
The point of your whole thread wasn't to persuade those who don't think like you, to finally stop complaining and for them to see Jinx your way?
You didn't say it clearly, but this is what I understood. You told people "to chill", and wrote "it‘s so funny to me reading the Jinx comment section all the time and everyone is just talking about how people can find him hot with his personality….".
Generally it is to convince people, but whatever it's not so important.
Though... you can't brush people's opinion away just because it's fiction. Real life or fiction, a story is a story and people have their own opinion. They'll like it or not following their tastes, convictions and view on things etc... So just tell them to "chill" and asking them why they dislike this or that (cause it's fiction) is telling them how stupid they are for not understanding things the way you do because "it's not real".
The same way goes for you: while you insist it's just fiction and "chill, guys", you speak about the ml with so much passion like if he was real, lol.
In the end, it's just diffent POV: what's important for you is not the same as for others. You see Jinx throught the lense of your eyes, someone else is seeing it throught the lense of their heart and head.
Explaining that he's being handsome and a dick IS the point of the story doesn't really change what they think.
Though I perfectly understand why you find him attractive and why you like the story.
It's easy to like beautiful people like Jaekyung because they're attractive and you find everything they do great and sexy, because... they're attractive. Pretty people have it more easy in life, they're also more successful whatever they do and people forgive them more.
Now believe me, if a guy like JK were to speak TO YOU the way he does to Dan, you'll feel hurt and would want to kick his ass. If a normal or ugly guy were to speak TO YOU like Jaekyung does to Dan (with the same facial expressions, direspect...), you'd want to kill the guy. Why I'm giving you all these exemples? That's because I'd like for you to see things throught the lense of EMPATHY, too, and not just with your eyes. Put yourself in Dan's shoes. There are many Dan IRL.
Beauty doesn't last for life and won't make your day. If beauty were enough, we would all marry a picture with a beautiful model in there, or a mannequin :D
It's fine that you like Jinx, also fine that you like JK since, true, it's fiction, but considering the violent content, please understand also those who feel hurt and dislike Jinx because they feel empathic for Dan (or other reasons).
Reasons why something like freedom to speak up is so important...
We're living in this era where we can read and see horrific things happening EVERYDAY IN REAL LIFE around the world on social medias/News; things worse than we can ever imagine and they're tragically real. Jinx is fiction and is not easy to watch, but there are issues and tragedies worse IRL, I think you already know this.
Is it ok to accept plots like Jinx cause real life can be 100 x cruel, and Jinx is just fiction? Or because Jinx/other dark story is fiction, does that make it more acceptable cause the brutality is not real?
One is real, the other is fictive but people will have their opinion on both, with the difference that fiction doesn't have people suffering IRL.
Seeing how culture and social medias can influence society and contribute to shape our futur and political decisions, it's important and necessary that people can speak up and call out something they think is wrong. Brushing everything away just because "it's fiction" is too easy.
Imagine there is some author writing about the "love story" of an adult and a child, the book is visible for everyone to read, there are details, images... What will you do?
"Well, that's just fiction"...? I'm asking you.
We don't see such book sold in bookstores because it's against the law and people, parents are gonna protest against it.
That's why, even though you dislike people coming to complain, there's nothing to do about that. Next time you'll be happy to complain about a story that you dislike but can't just drop.
And like I told, people can't really drop this one cause THE ART IS WHAT KEEPING THEM. If you find it annoying that "haters" are taking over the comment section, why not expressing your love for Jinx, too? Nothing forbid you.
My personal opinion on Jinx is neutral. I don't dislike it nor like it. If anything, I think this yaoi is just another cliché plot with the overused trope Rich x Poor, caricatural characters and the usual things... Migwa could've written something else, but they just chose what's easier and popular.
Thanks for reading if you'd read till there.
Yes, all these comments from readers is mainly because it's a violent and provocative content, controversial manhwa... It's clear like water.
Korean authors are aware of it, and it's pretty certain they write stories like this knowing what they'll get. Most of the time such yaoi become popular even if the plot is trash because the art is good enough to keep people around. There are lots of BL manhwas here with pretty much the same trope/poorly written plot, but they're popular due to the art being too good for people to quit.
Authors feed the community with the provocative content, great art, hot ml, lots of smut and toxic love, and in turn the yaoi fans, by their disputs, feed the machine etc... The recipe is pretty simple, that's why I believe these authors don't make much efforts to write original and rich storylines.
TBH I don't have the courage to read these repetitive plots anymore, just look at the first chapters and scroll time to time through the comments to see what's going on...
oh im lying if i said i understand your point, i dont wanna interact w yall. my comment is just pointing out something else. i was abt to delete this comment days ago but i realize it cannot be deleted lmao but anyways just y'all chill
it‘s so funny to me reading the Jinx comment section all the time and everyone is just talking about how people can find him hot with his personality…. But that‘s the whole point of the story lmao. That he is freaking hot and super dominant and that he just takes what he wants without regards to anything, be it consequences or the other person‘s feelings…. And I find it funny how people on here seem to always believe these stories portray reality when they are fiction. Like they can’t seem to differentiate between these two and always take the characters as real people and hate on every little thing. It‘s so nerve-wrecking lmao. I love Jaekyung and I find him incredibly hot. In my opinion he is one of the hottest drawn ML ever with every panel being perfection and I love his dominant trait very much lol. Can‘t wait to see where the story will go from here and how Dan will react. Honestly I don’t even want a whole redemption arc for Jeakyung because that would not fit his personality. More like him just changing the way he asserts his dominance over Dan once he realises how precious Dan is to him because let’s be real. Characters like Jaekyung are the epitome of dominance and control. They can’t just stop being like that or their entire persona would crumble. So I want to see what the author comes up with to explain him going just a tad softer on Dan in the future and how Dan is gonna react.
