Idk if this is an unpopular opinion or not BUT: Sure that random ex-sex partner of JK was rude in his delivery & with the dark and grim coloring of the panels and the way he was smirking cruelly we’re probably supposed to hate him as if he’s some jealous hoe (note the overuse of green in the panels) trying to drive a wedge between our MC and ML~, but oh my god Dan NEEDED to hear that
“You and I are no different”, “don’t be an idiot, and delude yourself into thinking you’re special”, “to him, we’re tools and nothing more”, “once he gets sick of you, he’ll toss you to the curb. Just like all the others” (some things he said to Dan)
^ Not one word of a lie lmao I thought this might be some sort of turning point for Dan since it seemed to make him face reality for a moment, but then when JK was leaning on him at the end of Ch43 and Dan’s face was on fire blushing I gave up hope
this is the “regretful top” genre (#후회공 is one of the genre tags on the kr og site) though so it’s basically a countdown now until Dan finally snaps out of it and JK regrets his actions n starts chasing him instead. Basically BJ Alex but on steroids. I do mostly like this subgenre usually, but with Jinx imo I think the creator went too far for JK to be redeemed so idk how the fuck this is gonna work out lmaooo.
I think it’s been shown clearly enough that Dan is a pushover, so I think him ending up with JK after the “regret” arc happens will make sense to HIM. But I don’t think it’s going to be possible to write it in a way at this point for it to be convincing to the readers; I just can’t get over how he’s treated Dan tbh. Yk, this reminds me of when your friend gets back with their horrible ex, after they went thru hell that u personally witnessed and u supported them thru, but they don’t have the outsider’s perspective that u have (aka us the readers watching this from outside and not sharing Dan’s… mental state and personality), so eventually they get back together when the shitty ex comes begging and ur like HOLY SHIT WHY
