Theres no actual romance in ORV, there is some weird thing with Kim Dokja and black chinese dresses with a garter belts but no real romantic envolvement. Kim Dokja doesn't actually like Jonghyuk and vice versa, they just have a bromance going on which has caused the (primarily female side) fandom to ship them hard
I'm aware that there's no actual romance but i thought Jonghyuk was more important ylto story when he just appeared few times while the side characters have sm ore screen time
ylto? He becomes more and more important as the chapters go on. Right now where im at in the novel hes extremely important and has had a lot of screen rime.
Well I've read until ch50 in the manhua and he appeared one major time
Oh im a novel reader lol
You're just different breed lol i heard it hundreds chs, but well at least you'll understand the plot better since there's so much going on
I think the reason the ship of these two was so hard was more so because of the last arc of the novel. I honestly was on the edge of my seat during that because of how hard the one worked because he wanted the other to return. <_< my spoilage without an idea on what, who, or why >:3 Well unless you've read the novel xD
I'm hopeless, I think I've read this one 4-6 times... Still just as good as the first read o/
whats the of the original work?
Tbh I feel like KDJ is bi and while there are some... Questionable parts... In the novel regarding their friendship (He might be in love with JYH but it's platonic.) He's like a brother, father and a friend to KJD as well as a partner. Like everyone who knows YJH say he looks happy when he's with KDJ however that doesn't say he's in love with him *snorts anyway the plot is quite complex I agree but it's the best novel I've read. ╥﹏╥
Omniscient reader's viewpoint
I wouldn't say there's no romance in orv or between kdj and yjh, the majority of the fandom specifically ships them hard because their feelings towards each other goes beyond any romance, maybe camaraderie? Platonic soulmates? Sure. Its a very attractive relationship that they have, and it keeps getting more meaningful and saddening. Their relationship honestly gives a lot of room for interpretation, that's why its fun to think that by somehow, just a tiny bit, we could hope that something more familiar would happen between them (fanfics exist for a reason).
Im not sure for others but I would accept whatever relationship they have, I just want them to be happy in each other's presence with peace (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
They actually do like each other (not saying romantically tho they do got craaaazy chemistry together)
Honestly, though, the novel leaves you questioning it a lot. Anyone who has read the novel will know what I mean. ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
YESSS OMG IKWYMMMMMM
Especially the way the two ended the novel ;-; my ship kept sailing!
ugh don't even get me STARTED on that IT WAS SO AMAZING AND although bittersweet and open-ended af STILL AHHHH LIKE RMBR WHAT YJH DID after he became uhhh let's js say yeah I don't wanna spoil but ykwim AFTER THEY ENDED AND THEN THE ARK AND SPACE AND AHHHHHHHHH AND HTTKDNSKDN I love orv sm and joongdok
OMFG! The space ark! That was the most ship decorating ark I saw, like how can you do all that for "only a friend" nah there's more there than "friendship" ლ(´ڡ`ლ) no one would spend that long doing that arduous task.
RIGHT?!?!?!?? HE EVN WORKED SO HARD W HSY JUSTTTTT TO SAVE KDJJJJJJJJ LIT LOVE KDJ AND YJH CUZ LIKE HE DID SO MUCH LIKE EVEN SP ik not "3rd round" yjh BUT STILL EVEN HE'S LIKE DEPERATE FOR KDJ obv why tho AND I STILL LOVE YJH BUT THE DIFF VERSIONS ALL LOVING HIM TOO AHHHHHHH LIKE RMBR THE FORCED by kdj ofc REGRESSION DEPRESSION IN "THAT" TURN lit sm good moments ugh I love em

Of the topic but how long would it take for jonghyuk x dokja to be real in the original story? I'm not reading this because i dropped orb because it was so complicated and jonghyuk got me fangirling for one chapter then he disappeared for good
