Nah

Preach. Plus that ex of his had some inferiority complex or something, I forgot

Dude, I've literally never hated a first story as much as this one. I thought he making him the villian was so unjust especially since the other guy was so unlikable. Like you're mad because he's talented and you're not? He actually care about you but you're too busy feeling inferior to care about anyone feelings but your own. And the brother had like zero personality. I also can't remember where but I remember them saying that Jinwoo's story was going to start like a punishment because of what he did in the first story and I remember that leaving such a bad taste in my mouth because I feel he suffered more than anyone in the first story.

Exaclty THIS. That’s what I was trying to find, those damn words you spoke so well haha. And Jiwon just wanted someone who would appreciate HIM, not just his talent. And his ex was literally just wow, disgusts me. All that Jiwoon deserved, his ex got it before him is crazy. He literally only wanted a caring partner, not just seeing his talents yknow.

And didn’t Jiwoon also try to lose or be bad at pottery or something for his ex? (Or I confused it with another story/novel).

Exactly! Like he never demanded anything unreasonable from you, literally just wanted your love. And somehow Jinwoo is in the wrong?? You're the one sleeping with him because you think somehow that makes his talent becomes yours and when you realize that's not the case you can't stand to be around him?? Like what kind of delusional ass?? I really hated that he got a happy ending. Jinwoo might have messed up by marking you but still had enough self control to stop himself and tell his brother to get the mark removed. Man literally redeemed himself instantly, idc what anyone else says.
And yes I believe Jinwoo did something self sabotaging because he felt bad, or at the very least the reason he had the equivalent of writers block was because he wasn't over that shitty fucker.

My man did not need to lower himself down for some ex who can’t even treat him right, he wasn’t being looked at as a boyfriend, but as an object cause of inferiority and his talents. Honestly, that ex should have not been able to move on so easily. Like, I don’t care if he fucks around with new guys after breaking up, but he should NOT have had to find love quickly. Pissed me off, and Jinwoo was left heartbroken.

“Because he wasn’t over that shitty fucker”— exactly this, period. He had to suffer cause of his ex, and his ex got away Scot free and found new love ASAP. And it was with Jinwoo’s OWN BROTHER. Lmao my brother would be dead to me if this happened.

Jinwoo seems like a cold and apathetic guy, but the way he’s so feeling and loving towards our ML here is sweet. He deserves this kind of love. His ex clearly couldn’t give him that. I’m glad Jinwoo ended up with a better man who could comfort him, and chasing after Jinwoo. For some reason, my heart skipped a beat when the ML here banged on his door, trying to find him and talk. Ah, love the communication and seeing Jinwoo being cared for.

He surely didn't, someone who loves you wants to raise you up not kick you down. He was leeching off of him, thinking being with him made him better somehow when what he shouldn't been doing was practicing his pottery since he sucked or try to find something you're actually good at instead of guilt tripping someone for their talents.

I agree, there's no way he ever cared for him since he instantly went to the next guy that showed him a speck of interest. I hated how just because he came off as meek that he was seen as the victim. All that self pity just to try and make yourself feel better when you very well know you treated Jinwoo like shit unjustly. It was so weird to me how anyone actually liked the first story when the main couple was so trash on my opinion. Dude, and I KNOW the brother also thought it was all Jinwoo's fault like bitch sorry I'm talented and he's not?? He was not wronged by Jinwoo, just because his inferiority complex acted up in the presence of true talent does not mean Jinwoo is at fault. And if you, as my brother, can not see things from both sides then you can go jump off a bridge behind that guy. I don't even think he likes you honestly, he just latched on to someone he didn't feel inferior to and someone who would shower him with unconditional love, even if he's undeserving of it.

On God, the whole time I'm like I don't care about anyone else but Jinwoo's happiness. He does not deserve to suffer for literally just existing. And it's so fucking sad that he really thinks he deserves to be miserable and mistreated as if he's done something to deserve that. Even accepting he's not anyone's first choice (just when the ML liked that other guy). And I really didn't like how ML treated him at first, especially knowing Jinwoo was okay with it because he was basically punishing himself just made me so fucking sad. I wish they had resolved things earlier but I'm hoping for a long side story full of all fluff and of course smut because it's the freaking least Jinwoo deserves!

Oh fuck! I fucking forgot ML liked someone else. Ugh. Ew. I’m reminded of that. Didn’t he like his step father or boyfriend of his father, Dylan? I think it was him.

I thought they resolved this or something. ML doesn’t love Dylan anymore, and Dylan is such a scum for emotionally manipulating or something to ML. I remember a bunch of readers talking about that.

I also feel a bit sad for Dylan cause he’s in love with the trashiest man in this story, the father of ML. Like I get that the father loves his late wife only, but why drag an innocent guy in and then abuse him? They’re old now, but Dylan is still by his side. Ugh. Sucks to suck.

I also hate this “First choice” or “Second choice” type of situations. I’m not about to be a second choice, I’ll say that. And if I recall properly, I think the ML harbored some feelings for Dylan, but not really love(?). But the way he was so lenient with him pissed me off, and he knew he was pissing Jinwoo off too so he stopped.

I hope the ML and Jinwoo don’t end up like the abusive father and his boyfriend Dylan. Fucking sucks, nobody wants to be in Dylan or Jinwoo’s situation.

Yeah his father's "boyfriend", like I feel he hardly qualifies cuz the ML father's in literally trash.

Yes, it's definitely been resolved thankfully and I do believe it's something more like familiar love since his father never showed him any love. It's fucked up because I feel like Dylan partially only care for him as much as he did because of his father, at least in the beginning maybe over time it was geninue.

No, on God. He's such fucking trash, cuz he's also physically abusive toward Dylan isn't he? Like fuck just cuz I'm a guy, I should be able to take a few hits is that it?

Ugh yes, I hate that! Like you can care for someone without like stepping over another person's feelings, especially if that other person is someone you love like logic??

No, they won't. They built a proper relationship and see each other as equals which is such an essential thing. The MLs father doesn't even consider Dylan a proper partner and I do feel bad for him, he should realize his worth and leave the old man! I wouldn't stay even if he did try to change cuz how many years of abuse have you put him through?? Too many.

FOR REAL AND HE TRIED TO MAKE JIWON FEEL BAD ABOUT BEING A RECESSIVE ALPHA TOO. HE LITERALLY IS THE INITIAL REASON JIWON STARTED TAKING PILLS FOR HIS "DEPFECT" OF BEING BORN A RECESSIVE UNLINE HIS LIL BRO

OMG STOP I FORGOT ABOUT THIS. THIS LITERALLY MAKES ME FUCKING SICK!! NO REDEMPTION, I HATE HIM SO MUCH! HE'S STILL BETTER THAN BOTH OF YOU COMBINED, RECESSIVE OR NOT!

Lmao so real, I forgot about the whole recessive alpha situation fuck the man

I'm glad people know he's trash
