I think by realistic, they meant that it was not all too predictable and flowery.... Or like the cliché where toxic people improves there personality and have a happy ending, it was scary and how they didn't clearly mentioned if sangwoo felt liking towards yoonbum or not (it was definitely not love if you ask me) even though its not too real even I kinda felt "omg this is 'realistic' " even though its not like it all happens in real life but, like, things doesn't always end up in a good way, and the usual "obsession, possessiveness, love" mentioned in other comics is not the same here and realistically, much worse things happen in real life... Yeah, it's just that it's rare and we don't really look it up (it's been 4yrs since I read this so things I remember are vague) I'm definitely not gonna torture myself by rereading this
Last time I read this was when I was 13 and discovered it on yt. Fast forward 4 years, I reread it again... and omfg let me tell you guys, this is ASS. I MEAN SERIOUSLY?! YOU COULDN'T HAVE GIVEN A BETTER ENDING?! (PS- I CANNOT believe someone actually commented that this is, and I quote "finally, something realistic" uhm exCUSE mE????? HOW TF IS THIS EVEN CLOSE TO REALISTIC??? IF U WERE ABUSED BY YOUR MOTHER WOULD YOU ALSO PRESERVE HER IN THE W A L L S OF YOUR H O U S E???) AND LET'S NOT IGNORE THE FACT THAT YOON WAS FUCKING KIDNAPPED BY SANGWOO. (How tf did I find this NORMAL when I last read it?) AND THE FACT THAT HE KILLED GOD KNOWS HOW MANY PEOPLE. SO I WILL REPEAT WHAT I SAID. THIS. IS. NOT. OKAY. BUT OMFG THE PLOT IS SO INTRESTING LIKE YOU CANNOT POSSIBLY PUT THIS DOWN. It was defo a good read, but will I ever find this normal? FUCK NO. I hate it but I love it.
