I love this comment so much because it’s so true (づ￣ ³￣)づ at first I disliked the uke because I saw myself in him (someone who overthinks and has a hard time reaching out and saying what’s wrong aka complicating things) but after reading it completely, the plot was realistic to the point where you understood each character had there reasonings and that life isn’t just a walk in the park for everyone whether you may think it or not because of how they look. (●'◡'●)ﾉ
Yessss!!!! Exactly how I feel about it, it's truly a great story.
This was so freaking good. I’m sad the rating is kind of low solely because people were frustrated with the lack of communication early on and didn’t give it another chance, even though the entire plot of this story is about overcoming that and building trust. (But tbh I think I would’ve been a little frustrated as a reader too, which is why I waited until this was completed LOL).
Wonjoon is one of the more realistic BL characters I’ve ever seen. I know as readers it’s easy to be angry with him, because WE know that Kyunghoo (the mc) is a green flag, and that his brother is obviously well-intentioned and could never hate him. But HE, as a character in this story, doesn’t know any of that. Like the author says in the authors note, life doesn’t come easy for him. Kyunghoo is rich and naturally smart, with a loving family that accepts him being gay, he has the privilege of not having a lot to worry about in life and is able to be easy-going because of it. Wonjoon had to work for everything and only has his brother, who he’s terrified of losing too. He’s not going to be completely emotionally stable given his circumstances, so I’m sympathetic to how closed off he became because of it.
Obviously he shouldn’t have treated Kyunghoo the way he did, but that’s the whole point of the story! That with time, compassion, trust, and allowing yourself to heal, you can rebuild what you thought was broken!! I’m so happy I read this. Toxic, over the top dramatic yaoi has its place, but sometimes you need something more grounded in reality. I wish people gave this as much of chance <3.
