I just went to check the novel again and damn, the whole scene is emotional. Hohyun is hearbroken and shaking not only for himself, but for Youngwon, because he realizes how Youngwon felt and just how hard it's been for him killing so many zombies! He asks "Is this how you felt? Has it been this hard for you too?" And Youngwon answers "Yeah, it's been fucking hard". Hohyun then is about to hurl and looses his balance only to be cought and steadied by Youngwon. They kiss softly at first then become more passionate. And the "strip down" order there is sexy yet embarrassing to Hohyun, not threatening and humiliating like now in the comic!
I don't get the logic of the comic artist, why???? Was it too emotional, you just wanted to see some ass rip, is that it??
I too would like to ask for the link.
Honestly certain needless changes in adaption are what throws me off the rails just like when I was a beautiful crafted manga about a boy and his slimes and then the anime came out, he had more scenes of his female friend than his action and building that my disappointment rose to the limit and I dropped it. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Why would you change the scene in the novel to make it into rape when adapting to the comic??? This is so out of character!!!
In the novel Hohyun was washing up in the bathroom and that's where the zombie ambushed him. It wasn't him stupidly opening a door either, he knew it was a zombie and the door will not hold if it notices him, so the only choice Hohyun had is to attack first. Also, the fact that even if he isn't noticed, the zombie is blocking the only way out anyways, so he had no choice. Hohyun braces himself and then attacks the zombie. After some struggle, he kills it (his first kill ever) and comes back to Youngwon more bloddy and dirty than before he went to wash up, shaking from the trauma of the experience of killing something that used to be a human.
Then Hohyun asks Youngwon is that what he felt every time he killed them? The experience had shaken up Hohyun so much he was almost going into a panic attack. Then Youngwon hugged Hohyun and comforted him. And after that they had sex.
But here in the comic Hohyun is a complete weak-ass dumbass who idiotically opens a door to a zombie. Yet that was not the worst part - the fact that Youngwon snapped at him for that??? That's not it! How did a comforting crying scared and traumatized Hohyun bacame an abuse and rape scene?? Comic artist, hello?? Why??
It was not rape in the novel. Yeah, Youngwon is pushy in the novel, too, but Hohyun was not unwilling. Their dinamic could be viewed as toxic and unhealthy, but it's their form of escapism from the horror that is happening and they both knew it. Hohyun knew it and craved it, because it made him forget what is really happening. I absolutely hate how they changed it in the comic to fcking rape.
And if any of you cone here whining it's a spoiler - IT'S NOT AN EFFING SPOILER, OKAY? This is what was supposed to happen!
