The below bare minimum enjoyer got treated almost right for 0.5 seconds: "OH MY GOD I LO...

"below bare minimum enjoyer" lmaooo

So what?? Jaekhyung is wayyy more greener than any tops in bl world be fucking fr. Unsolicited advice: read tons of bl. You'll appreciate whatever jk been doing lol

Not wrong.
The more BL you read, the easier it is to pick out the actual fvcked up ones from the ones that behave badly but were made that way by life, not because they find it a good choice. As well as mixtures of all types or just author being random, which I hate most tbh. Ain't nothing worse than a shitty ML that's just cruel for cruelties sake without a hint of having a potential reason why he is that way. XD

Pretty sure Dan simply falls under the category of having a shit life all his life and finally seeing light. That CAN make people fall in love, some readers really need to realize that fact. XD Plus, he's likely a masochist without knowing beforehand, so that too will play a role in him liking JJ.

just because jaekyung is "greener" than other red flags doesn't automatically mean he *is* a green flag. stay deluded bestie.

You're the type I'll flush down the toilet(≧∀≦)

ever heard of "bad writing"

Unsolicited advice, stop reading disgusting bls with rape, sexual assault and Stockholm syndrome. Or I'll go back the day before your parents fucked and beg your father to pull out.

Of course, that's why I added the part of:

"As well as mixtures of all types or just author being random, which I hate most tbh. Ain't nothing worse than a shitty ML that's just cruel for cruelties sake without a hint of having a potential reason why he is that way. XD"

If it wasn't clear enough, THAT is what bad writing is when it comes to red flag characters.

Hmm i see, i get the point. I'm pretty sure my standpoint comes from a place of hate rn, pure hatred for dumb characters, even though Dan could very well be any other broke people hanging by the thread desperate and all. I just have an inherent repulsion with characters who are weak, can't do anything right, and falls inlove with their abuser that's why i think it's bad writing, using such trope is just bad writing. The author had millions of other choices for a character personality other than this boring white lotus who gets mistreated every chapter but still chose this for idk what fucking reason ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶.

I get that feeling too sometimes. Especially if you check new uploads and ALL of the characters are just annoying to say the least. That has made me take a break from reading for months once. XD
Characters like Dan rely on people being able to understand people like that or even feel relatable to them. So if you cannot understand their point of view it will easily result in them being just annoying and hating them even. People like Dan exist irl, but it's a more niche part of society, which is why authors usually change their personality along the way to make them more relatable to other types of readers. If they don't, the target audience will be small and it usually ends in people really hating to read the story. (Granted, some authors just don't care, which I kinda like, or they do it on purpose. After all: Any PR is good PR. So people reading for hate or like doesn't matter to some.)

I think the target audience for this story is people that can relate to being weak and submissive, as well as have a soft spot for typical jerk hot guys that are into SM-kinda dynamics. As well as people who see the story from a more mature viewpoint and look for rhyme and reason without it being revealed yet. (I fall into that group, as I believe JJs character as well as Dan can be written to be VERY realistic if we bring in mental issues that made them as they are and slowly need work to fix. Not that I have hope for a smut comic to actually do that. For that the opportunity to hint at this is really nowhere to be seen.)

Tho then again, there are also those who ignore the story and just focus on the good art. I have done that many times in the past and it can make stories better than actually reading them. Tho it's not easy to do if you already know wtf is going on. So that might not be an option for you to try. (￣∇￣")

I personally hope the author will at least TRY to bring in reason and JJ feeling miserable (due to a lost fight perhaps) and then they can have a better relationship. The more this continues the less I think the author will do it tho. But the drunk cuteness IS a nice start. We just need this more often to change their dynamic. I shall remain hopeful. (●'◡'●)ﾉ

I appreciate that! And i really see u looking at this in a logical view, and yes indeed I'm def not part of the soft and weak people that has a thing for non-consensual sadism T_T, if anything I don't like the idea of being submissive at all! Seeing Dan take anything and everything just irks me so goddamn much i wanna peel my skin off and pull face apart--XD.

Also, i really like how you word all these sentences! (=・ω・=) everything just sounds so..correct and careful!

I'm a very condescending person, i think, when my irks got triggered so i am amazed you can talk to me so level-headed(≧∀≦).

I'm gonna be hopeful with this too, just for Dan to get some changes or jaekyung donkey, but i def would be here again spouting all indecency if author takes this stupidity till chapter 60 or so(⌒▽⌒)

I'm a bit different there, I have a masochistic and kinky side, which is why I can enjoy stuff like that >if< I disconnect the behavior of the character with the bonking scenes. Maybe a skill aquired by reading too many fictional pieces and constant daydreaming. I am not entirely sure. It does not always work tho. XD
But I can understand how it's a major irk-factor for people who're not into submissiveness or forceful partners.
Kinda like I get aggressive-annoyed at those doe-eyed shoujo highschool girl copycat 'hErOInEs' that are as shallow as a puddle with the same personality (if there even is one besides 'she cute, teehee~'), all look the same and they ALWAYS behave the same in every scenario. Predictable doesn't even cut it. I do not fathom how people can enjoy these characters 100 times in a row. Let alone those that demand an actual interesting and human-like shoujo girl MC should be more like the obnoxious puddles. My head cannot understand those people. :D

D'aww~, thank you very much! ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
Maybe it's my hobby of being a writer that plays into this. Being able to word things well is a needed skill with that after all. XD Plus, I like being detailed (sometimes too much) so there won't be misunderstandings or open questions.

No worries. Years of YouTube trolls and triggered people that picked fights with me have prepared me to stay calm and peaceful in any discussion. XD As long as you don't hurl insults at me, I have no reason to not be civil. Disagreement doesn't equal hate after all. Many people online need to re-learn that very important little thing in life. (▰˘◡˘▰)
Besides, I didn't really find you that condescending tbh. More like poking fun. And that's fine by me, I can laugh about stuff I like and dislike all the same. ^^

As long as the audience stays around, I can see this going for 100 chapters tbh. Stories have been milked further than that, so I wouldn't be surprised. Tho I hope we do get more than bonking. I like sloppy smut, but character developement is WAY more needed for these two dum-dums. Fingers crossed we get that sometime soon. I don't want to leave a review in which the only positive point is the art.... ;v;
