Yup! And I hate that it's going the "not taking accountability and will be swept under the rug" route
LITERALLYYY I was thinking that because it clearly acknowledged Suwons fear of the man and it's parallels to a previously obvious abusive relationship we would see some accountability, but no he sudd2nly decides to reach a moral epiphany and we never talk about it again?? Wtf man
This is a recurring trend in yaoi for some reason. I really wonder why. Does it reflect the social state of the authors? Do East Asians generally just have such terrible relationship dynamics that they fantasize and fetishize toxicity?!
It may be but it's also a fetish for some people and to have more views they put those things in there
Yeah I thought that at first, but I continued reading and turn out the story actually revolves around MC trauma at first it was hinted but at season 2 its the main focus turn out he has sexual trauma and being hyper sexual was his way of coping with it and fuck idk if you drop it or read season two but (spoiler)the person responsible came back, they haven’t even talked properly and it’s already so bad
Never mind I read on and it seem like this was a comment on the recent chapter, I think rather than romanticising, it’s more like MC like ‘this is all I have’ and relying on him and shit, a pile of shit is better than nothing, and he’s desperate for some sort of security,and I fucking hate it, Vericon good for you for what? Feeling bad? But honestly fhck you and fuck off if you know what’s best, man trying to overwrite what’s he has done but doing it better this time, like no actually this is not helping MC at all, giving him terrible trust issues. The only good one is the king, everyone else well, fuck off. I honestly think this will be sunwoo (mc) season to realise he deserve better and finally come to terms with it, since he’s just been avoiding it in s1
One of the things that makes me kind of hate yaoi stories is the amount of fetishized rape that it's obviously made to please the people that have this kind of kink. The scenes with Vericon are disgusting, yeah the art is nice but the trope will always be the same.
