NO, absolute waste of time, I'm not gonna spoil but it doesnt go anywhere, i stopped reading this on 80 chap and they went back to stage 1 all over again.
Okay, thanks. I hope the ending turns out well, it would be a waste to be at chapter 80 and then have things turn out like that
I absolutely would recommend it! it's a masterpiece if you're looking for a well written story. its not all sunshines are rainbows, but the storytelling is top notch!
stop glazing the author aint gonna let u hit bro
lol awe, sorry you can't understand how good the story is. have a nice day tho ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
not sure where the good part is but if ur talking abt the storytelling, im pretty sure the author just picked some big words and added them hoping ppl would ignore the badly executed plot n rape
It's good really, but it's a revenge historical plot so just be aware it has r#pe scenes in the recent chapters
Nah, it's really not good. too much rape and the story *looks* good, but the lacks basic coherence and cohesion
You can read this as a literature
as someone with a degree in literature, it's garbage. the art is the only redeeming part of it. all it is is gratuitous rape fantasies. i would've preferred it if it presented the assault as assault and used the story as a critique on rape culture/classism, as well as turning it into a revenge story rather than a sorry excuse for a romance.
Guys are y'all okay i don't know if i need to read this or not, all of you are fighting now
you dont need a degree to recognize bad writing lol
I also believe the author rode on the current trend of historical korean BLs, specially after Painter of the Night took off.
There is actually a super weak plot, to keep readers hooked basically - will they end up together? Will they both die? What will happen?
Unlike Painter of the Night, where some actual character development did indeed took place.
However, in this case, apart from super fancy archaic words, the plot hasn't moved further at all in 80 chapters.
You can say, we're still learning about the characters at this point - how the ML had no choice but to kill to become who he is, how Yeonjo suffered and how he is sweet and kind, can't bear to hurt even a mosquito basically.
So, in season 2, author introduces new people - to further the plot, because their story writing is indeed super weak. A good author would've been able to spin off something wonderful with the existing world building that they've done.
did i ever say that? i brought it up cause there were vastly different responses to the question, so i hoped my educational background might tip the scales more so they wouldn't waste any more of their time reading this.
i didnt say you said that, but the implication is that it somehow makes you more qualified to judge a story.
generally when it comes to things that relate to subjective taste and preferences, there are always the pretentious type that like to bring in their education as a qualifier for objectivity on taste lol
but I kinda get now where youre coming from in this situation
sure, but i’m not telling them to stop liking the story or that people who like the story are incorrect in their assessment of its value to them. not trying to dog on you, but you just assumed i was pretentious simply bc i brought up i had a degree i fear this is just as judgmental. but anyway, nothing is that deep.
Is this good?? Is it worth to read?
