First time I see someone actually understanding the plot instead of hating bc Cain wasn't endgame
Thank you! It’s irritating reading the comments of ppl bitching about jooin not ending up with Cain..as if we weren’t all reading Cain continuously force himself on jooin over THE PAST. They were never going to be end game, not when Cain would forever cling to his history with jooin’s previous life. Expecting them to be together was unrealistic from the start :-:
I had dropped this a while back because I didn’t like the way things were going and had a feeling the angst would continuously build up with the love triangle being introduced. I’m glad I let it marinate until it was completed to finally be able to understand my actual thoughts about the story. Frustrating as it was, I’m not gonna sit here and act like it wasn’t well written. It was and showed realistic sides of human emotions that make things like these very complicated. Understanding and coming to the realization that you really love someone, especially your FIRST love is so intense that making rational decisions can be difficult. I say this as a 20 year-old who had experiences concerning my romantic relationships, but was still unsure what I felt for those people so It never lasted. Even now, I feel like I might never understand it but it takes time..and I’m glad that aspect was a key factor in the story. Time to themselves was important for all them. I know most people are upset that Cain didn’t end up with the Jooin…but knowing Cain liked him because of their past lives already showed me the types of issues they would have. He reminisced about someone that didn’t exist anymore and willingly chose to ignore how much things had changed. I don’t know why, but that instance reminded me of when you have a crush on someone in the past and then you meet them again in the present and you’re surprised that they have changed because you cling so much to what they used to be when they caught your eye. Even if the author had chosen to go by what fans wanted, them ending together wouldn’t have made sense. Also, the author was able to make Yahwi’s redemption arc make sense so that’s why I wasn’t even mad they ended up together. His character in the end is STARKLY different from how we were first introduced to him. overall, I give this story a 8.5/10 ..simply because I do admit I was getting frustrated as well
