i rooted for second lead so badddd he was so cute but i'm glad he's getting his own story
Me too, I'll be there to read it!
You must be reading the side story (alpha’s trauma) of the 2nd ml then?
Yes, it's starting so well
Nah, MC and ML are super cute. I am really happy everything worked out for them.
Lmao the author didn't fuck up anything when a minority of the readers can't agree with the main ship. Also Dohyun at first was pushy af and the reason he got interested with MC is due to MC hiding the fact that he's an omega, which is very shallow and put them in a very unequal ground since he kind of lowkey threatened MC to out him to ML, which MC told him in response that he "doesn't date brats" bc that's what Dohyun was in the beginning, an immature and manipulative brat.
Still Dohyun grew emotionally and he has his own love story. While his chemistry with MC was there, you can clearly see how one-sided it is and that in MC's eyes, he's "too young". This was a breath of fresh air for me lol since most BL MCs out there woulda used Dohyun as a rebound, which would be very unfair for Dohyun especially in the long run when he's fully invested.
I agree with all you've said. And that was my point btw, Dohyun's growth as a character from his initial flawed state, and the amount of screen time it required, makes you invested as a reader, even to a point of cheering for him instead of the ML. At the end you could feel the sincerity of his feeling, but he still chooses to put the MC's feelings first, and not to go against his wishes, whether when the MC was in heat, or questioning the ML's feelings for him.
I personally think this story was to act as a foundation for Alpha Trauma. In a way, MC and ML are already developed character with one huge misunderstanding separating them. It serves as contrast as well-- here in Omega Complex we have an MC who can talk about feelings and an ML who respects MC while in Alpha Trauma...
Well yeah, even though I haven't read the novel yet, I've read a lot of reviews of how Dohyun's character was nothing like here.
Btw I'm all for the main ship, but it's too bad they were kind of overshadowed, in my opinion, by Dohyun's character dev.
Honestly I look at Dohyun very fondly before being abruptly reminded of what he's capable of and then I just wanted to watch him getting run over by multiple trains consecutively and feed the remnants of his corpse to ravenous flesh-eating piranhas. I hope the manhwa artist does improve the story in a positive way, even though it'll be branded as an unfaithful adaptation
Oh sure, hope’s what keeps us alive. :p
this is the worst take i’ve ever seen. dohyun literally knew yoon woo liked taegyeom yet he couldn’t respect their boundaries and still tried to pursue him.
Exactlyyyyy, you spat facts. Most MCs would use the second ML as the rebound and dump them because they were never invested in them and go back to the first ML. The MC was seriously a breath of fresh air for being stead fast in his interest towards the ML.
Yep, I also appreciated that. ^^
I still think it was fair game, he just spoke of his feelings, didn't try anything underhanded. I almost admire him, I wouldn't be so bold if I knew I had no chance from the beginning. ^^
You know you fucked up as an author when you make the second alpha guy more interesting and more likable than the actual ml, who has pitiful screen time at the start. Sorry, the romance didn't work for me between the too leads. The MC and 2nd alpha had way more relationship development and cute moments. The main couple was being too dramatic. But aside from that, the 2nd alpha was so fiiiine.
So yeah, a little disappointed, might drop it.
Maybe it's cuz I just finished the low tide manhwa, and this doesn't hold up to it. Idk, but i still wish you guys a good read!
