I see people disliking your comment (dunno if it's on purpose,probably is..idk idc) but I totally agree. These types of characters get very careless. I understand it's a story and not real and whatever but it does get annoying. Him being a celebrity and with everything's tgat happen ed to him...HES GOTTA BE 1000 TIMES MORE CAUTIOUS!!! Fine. Don't tell ur manager but tell SOMEONE.
Exactly. I get the use of it for the plot but more and more authors are making charcters that behave impossibly like a thinking person, especially one who is a celebrity and has and knows the terror of not being cautious. Does it make sense to have the character repeatedly lack common sense? My suspension of disbelief only goes so high before it’s just stupidity. That’s really what irks me when people rely on the excuse of fiction, fiction relies on elements of reality. Human’s don’t have an imagination that magically creates things from
nothing, we are physically incapable as our need to categorize
and make pattern of things is inheritant. So then why make characters who seems to not be able to do so and have anthropomorphic qualities but give them something basic and clear reasoning?! It just makes my head hurt.
but not give them*
Totally agree but let’s hope the Mc reflects on what happened and doesn’t get dumber as the Mc of “a man like you” oh boy I gave up on reading that story.
I did too, I see it in my stream and I’m like, I liked this but stopped reading it for a reason, i will probably go back to it when it finishes just to see the end but idk cuz it got real dumb real fast
I actually thought when he looked at the tea that he would refuse it but nope. My hopes were dashed. I was so happy because I read another BL story and a similar thing happened but the mc refused the drink (which was in fact drugged) but was kidnapped anyway due to another circumstance. It’s still one of my favorites to this day just because the MC’s aren’t stupid and I can actually believe the story
i know this is harsh but after reading A Man Like You with a character like Siwon, i just had to role my eyes when Sunwoo Yeon was drugged like that. I mean you've been attacked multiple times, every times you to be careful and notify your manager of things, you even briefly thought wow this sounds like a bad idea maybe I should tell someone or bring someone with be just be safe. God I tire of utterly stupid cutesy characters and have no sympathy for them. I mean you're dumb as a rock if you've purposely allowed yourself to be a situation which time after time you can't be bothered to learn from.
