i havent read this in such a long time and god the sides are disgusting. I was honestly ex...

Exactly.
Sehyuk's been a disgusting character since the beginning but I thought that was going to have some character development but it's impossible when the problem is the mindset of the author.

The unfunny "funny" part is that he "could've" raped Hamin so much earlier, but he waited till the end of the series and, in the first opportunity, unlocked the punishment rape route.

So pointless. It makes his own efforts even more in vain.

ik its just so dissapointing and gross honestly

Tbh I enjoyed the main story and when I saw the sides I was soooo excited only to see pure shit. It's funny how some say that people are over reacting and then go on by saying it's because he's in mafia so that's what he's gonna do.
Like there are so many mafia stories without rape out there..and they still feel like mafia stories..I don't know what the author was on..or was it they just wanted to complete the stories so they just went the easiest path...raping the uke

Yes, my feeling exactly... I'm so tired of pointless rape in BL... As a man and a top myself it gets my blood boiling so much I can't even stand it.

exactly, it really shows the authors true colors with the lack of respect to gay people in general its just sad

I think the biggest issue about rape in any kind of story is how it is fetishized instead of a serious matter.

It's possible to add rape even between mcs to raise awareness, but they almost never do.

For me, sex with consent is always the easier route.
What they do is add rape but take the easier way out making the victim"enjoy" and leave a that.

I'm so, so tired of this...

ofc they are going to say that bc they only care that he is good looking. And the mafia argument is so stupid to like if they are saying " ofc he was going to do that" how wou;d that make it any better?Like hes still a criminal and a shitty person. Its honestly crazy to me how delusional people are to protect something just bc they thing the character is hot but you know that they will switch up if it was anyone else lol

Righttttt..someone in the comments did say that people would be crying out here if the same thing was done by an old man...it's just the hot man can rape and it's not rape thing...and this really is disgusting..they do the same in case of roses and champagne like accept the hot guy you simp over turned out to be shit..I'll not lie i simp over him too but there's a limit

ofc they take the rape shortcut csause they cant stand putting an ounce of effort in developing feelings and relationships...they think if someone rapes another person the victim will all of a sudden see them as a romantic intrest which is just so twisted. I also believe that rape could be used as a plot device in the right ways but i have NEVER seen it handeled in that manner. its just insane to me that they think that this life ruining crime is something that will result in loive and a relationship..

oml i love how this reply section is turning into me ranting but the seme from roses and champange is such a good example as well as many other popular mangas. I really dont get peoples affinity to any sort of plot or good characters. Like as long as they are drawn good they will defend aevry action and traeat it as them being "mean" babes that isntg being mean thats being absolutly disgusting and heartless. When i am saying this the first thing that pops into my mind is jinx and its fanbase.

Sadly, most BL stories that come from Korea has rape in them between mcs...
It breaks my heart to think that most are written by women for women and defended by women.

I expect disgusting shit from men, we should be educating men about rape culture, and, looks like women too, but It shouldn't be my place, as a man, to ever have to tell a woman what's rape.

They have fantasized rape too much at this point..to literally have people defend them
