You said it!! My thoughts exactly!
Your heart goes out to heeseo, the poor rapist abuser has been thru too much shit Hes suffered crazy heartache free my boy
Seeing your comment I get now why I feel ick with the uke. Tae-kyung is really self-centered. Morally I'm gonna hate this revenge arc, but I don't really feel sory for Tae-Kyung
I mean I wanted to write about that too but was kinda lazy
So
I never justified the rape part I talked about a certain point which was him being abandoned I mean the advantage of being a reader is that you are just a watcher you can see both POVs so u can understand the characters normal situations we won't even try to understand the rapist ( as we should )
in this comment I talked about him being abandoned multiple times never had a backbone always blamed on his mother's death even though he didn't know better which made him pitiful imo
And if I may add I read alot of yaoi and you know how common rape is but the rape in this manga actually disturbed me ( especially the one in the shower)
Heeso is not the most lovable character I don't like him very much but teahyuk is the kind of characters that annoys me that's why I talked about him.....
I sympathize with his situation that's it that doesn't mean I justify his abuse also I know where he was coming from but was not enough of a reason for him to rape
Maybe my vocabulary wasn't the best in the original comment "my heart goes for him ) English is not my first language (obvious)
I hope I made my point more clear at least
What heeso is doing now is not a revenge it's him practising his obsession on teakyung , in one chapter heeso said the he would earn enough money to feed him dress him and tuck him in bed
That's him fulfilling his promises lol
So I beinge read this and I have to say I don't really like the uke here's why
First the reason why the uke never told the ML that he knew his mother was becuz he knew that his current "mother" killed ml mother but at the same time the "mother" and her son were his family and he longed for this so he didn't want to give this up by believing his speculation with no evidence ( I think this is the reason why he was obsessed with the ml mother case to prove to himself that his "mother" is not the culprit)
But still he can't help but to feel kinda guilty so he starts sending financial support to the children house that the ml lived in and occasionally go check the result of his efforts , so at the panel that showed the uke watching the kids happy with the money hee so was not particularly happy or excited as the other but the whole scene made the uke satisfied " that's it , that's how I will make heeso happy " but at the same time he didn't want to get too involved with heeso because it would be as a daily reminder of his guilt
Second when everything came together and no he has a proof for himself especially that his " mother's " was the culprit he confronted her "okay she would only spend few years in prison and when she gets out I would keep my family and heeso's mother would receive her justice and at the meantime I would take care of heeso provide him with the support he needs and everyone is happy " but when he knew that his " mother" had cancer and only had few years to live ( I kinda think it a scheme) every thing shattered and what added fuel to the fire was heeso's reaction at this point the uke broke down like this is too much now he has to choose between his dying " mother " and the kid but he didn't want to be the one to leave so he said hurtful things to heeso to make him leave willingly
As if the uke left heeso with his own accord that would make him feel guilty .
Finally at the recent chapters when his " mother " " beat" cancer
U know that this woman is the killer of the person that u cared about now she is living her best life with to healthy sons and a government position , and I bet u would celebrate with her making peace with the fact that heeso already took his " revenge" by staping you
Which was the last straw for me I mean we as humans are selfish but that still pissed me off
If I may add my heart goes for heeso
His life is literally a lie especially the ten years after his mother death
He lived his life pulling the suicide attempts to understand why his mother (where his roots lie ) abandoned him only to know she never meant to leave him
But he choose to hold into the new soil (uke) and " forget" about his previous soil ( mother) only for him to be abandoned again without knowing why ......
