It was a difficult watch, to be honest. It’s not for the faint of heart. I actually waited until it was complete before diving into it because I knew if it ended in tragedy, I wouldn’t be able to handle it. I didn’t want it to leave a mark. But even with its happy ending, it still managed to leave an impression.

I remember reading a comment about this story a while ago. Someone mentioned that the depiction of sexual abuse didn’t feel realistic and came across as almost romanticized. I don’t believe the author’s intention was to romanticize such a horrific experience. Instead, it feels like an artistic choice—to present the abuse in a way that allowed us, as readers, to endure it, and, in a strange way, to even appreciate the story as a whole, including its darkest moments. And, honestly, I think it worked.

As for the claim that it wasn’t realistic: well, of course. In reality, careers like the one portrayed in the story are often far worse, far grittier, and rarely as high-end as the protagonist’s journey. And people in those situations rarely, if ever, get a happy ending.

    Yup, but it hasn't been fully translated yet, also idk if there will be any side stories, it wrapped up nicely so maybe not

    I have no idea, it will probably take a while, batato has some unofficial translation up to chapter 68 i think. But i would wait if i was you as it's heavy conversation based.

    Thank you! I just felt like explaining my point of view, but it's cool that you agree with me haha
