Just for this I’ll comment even more <3 like who are you, a cop? The Jinx Judge? LOL. Yeah no I actually want to see how season 2 plays out and how the author handles things. I’ve several times acknowledged the thing isn’t done yet and that certain elements of this webtoon might develop and/or be explored more and I want to see if it happens and how.
Like hmmm maybe I SHOULD do my detailed rereading sooner so I can make my “Jaekyung is a weakly written character, here’s how we could’ve pushed him further” post with more concrete evidence. Though I don’t even need to reread to think of and remember things off the top of my head. What do you think? I think it’ll be fun
I'm tired of your stupidity :33 why are you talking like that about a character that didn't even have its development, also we only got Dan's point of view. If you become to like the character (which is gonna happen sooner than u think like most of the ppl), I dare to comment : "I regret what I wrote till now, jjk is s tier seme blablabla" something like 65 lines like only you can write
Comment more? You mean you can do more than you currently do? We'll soon have to scroll pages and pages to find ours then.
Ye, none wanna see your comments here when ss2 starts. If you're still here, admit you like it or stop reading.
"It's my opinion" : YES/NO isn't an opinion but a position, you can go deeper.
Criticism : if not constructive, they are not needed.
And if you're the type to wait characters development to appreciate semes, then you know how it works, so wait in silence, that makes you a fan dude nothing else.
You’re calling ME stupid meanwhile you’ve not actually read and understood any of what I’ve been saying. I’ve said several times that I acknowledge things could change between season 1 and season 2, that Jaekyung might get decent character development. But as it stands right now, I don’t think he’s well written. I think there are some fundamental flaws in the execution and portrayal of his character that can’t and likely won’t be amended in a second season—not without it feeling like an ass pull.
The fact that we haven’t gotten the barest hint of who he actually is beneath his violent, hypermasculine front or why he behaves the way he does IS part of the problem. I know all about slow burns and mystery in stories, but even those have their ebbs and flows of character and relationship development, even if it happens at a snail’s crawl. Even those drop hints about what’s going on beneath the surface, enough so we as readers become curious enough to want to find out. With Jinx, however, Dan and Jaekyung’s characters and relationship has hardly really changed at all. So no, I’m not gonna lie and say he’s an S Tier Seme or whatever even if he gets better writing, because I don’t think he could reach that level given what we have so far.
Well I want to see my comments here and others have liked and agreed with what I’ve said, so…
Anyway, I’ve said frequently that I think I AM a bigger fan than some of you who call yourselves Jinx fans because I’m actually taking the time to engage with, think about, and understand what I’m reading. I’ve also said that there were/are elements of this webtoon I do enjoy. But your thinking is too black and white to consider there can be someone whose interest in something can be more nuanced than simply being a fan or a hater. You can like something and still be critical of it. You can be critical of something while still acknowledging what it does well. It doesn’t always cleanly make you one thing or another thing.
Like what is the epic own you’re trying to get here? You want me to admit to a secret undying love of this webtoon? Obsession, yes—things that had/have potential but drop the ball and continue to do so do tend to uniquely capture my attention. It’s a pattern of behavior of mine, I won’t lie. They piss me off because they disappoint me—I could’ve, maybe should’ve, loved this thing, but it didn’t live up to my expectations at all. I really do feel that way about Jinx.
And be honest with yourself, Shiki—if I actually articulated not only the things I don’t like about this webtoon, but also how I think those things could be done better, would you actually acknowledge or read and engage with them? Because I’ve done it so far, several times. And whether I praise or condemn the webtoon, all you’ve met me with is “too long, didn’t read.”
"we need complex main characters!" but yall can't even handle jaekyung -.-
yeah he's an d!ck but aint no way he's worse than other red flag mcs
