And frankly this is something that I feel like was such wasted potential. Maybe we’ll see it happen in season 2, I doubt it, but we never actually get to see Jaekyung struggle with his jinx. We never get to see him lose a match because of it or perform poorly because of it or anything, to the point where the stupid thing might as well not even be real. Yeah, whatever, Dan’s a totally fucking pushover—even he could’ve still used it as some type of equalizer. Hey, Jaekyung, if you’re not going to treat me halfway decently, I’m just going to drop this whole deal. No, it never happens. Dan is too fucking sad and poor to make any real demands and Jaekyung has literally anyone he wants at his beck and call. No one gives an actual shit what he does. What the fuck kind of stakes are those? Zero tension whatsoever. It’s all so one-fucking-sided and that’s why it’s so LAUGHABLE that this is even a debate that needs to be had. But whatever I guess I and everyone else needs to kneel down and suck Jaekyung’s fat millionaire cock because he was so benevolent as to let his sex toy live with him out of convenience instead of letting him rot on the streets or something. Don’t piss me off.

Things advanced so fast that now we've reached already the 3th page...?
And with my poor frenglish it's not easy to express everything I'd like to say :'> But here I'll give my thoughts.
I like how this discussion is linked to that other we have ("I like Dan, but...').

When I first saw this manhwa of Migwa, tbh I was disappointed by the plot they've picked (you know how artists authors never have only one scenarios to pick from in their pocket): there were already many bl manhwas at the time with this trope (rich big ml/poor endebted mc...). "The art had progressed so much, but why this cliché story...?" But seeing how it gets so popular anyway, I find myself curious about the outcome of this plot and how will progress their relationship. So, I think my pov is pretty neutral compared to vast majority who either hate Jjk with passion or are fans of Jinx/Mingwa.
About the smut, I never found them hot and mostly tried to skip them, but couldn't anyway bc the comments are filled with debats about them, with the topic about rape regularly brought on the table... with already very detailed descriptions of the smut to determin whether there's rape in their s interactions or not done by readers.

As we know, to determin whether there's rape or not in this PRECISE case (Jinx) and other similar cases is not simple, we're really walking on sword's edge here. Though these contracts that engage sexual transactions in exchange of money/favors are just that complicated, unless there's clear boundaries established with no one to break them, under any conditions. The issue, Achille Talon, lies within the nature of transaction itsef, where consent like the rest can be bought. There's no limit to the type of 'services' you want to get, as long as you have the financial means. When there's money, there's always a way, making this sector profundly corrupted and very hard to rescue the victims. Even rescued, victims can go back to their pimp (Stockholm Syndrom), and mostly for the (easy) money. Prostitution is always plagued with abuses, torture even killings ; the ground profits of all the failures of the law and system, fail parenting, fails of society... the struggles of competent structures to find responsabilities, even more when victims refuse to fill complaint...
Yes, this ground is a Big swamp. It requests a lot of human ressources, surveillance, and infortunately police and judges are overpowered and inefficient most of the time. It's like that everywhere, and the fact that's SK doesn't change much that reality aside for sure that gay relationships aren't even acknowledged with their own issues.
I thought it's important to reminds that context regarding sw.
