I disagree that we see his reasoning for cheating, its not like he is in love with his former bf or anything. people just want a redeeming factor in this but the mc is devoid of any real sense of morality. heck, he doesn't even feel bad about cheating. I'm not here to discuss other stories or whatnot, I'm simply offering an explanation as to why some people are dropping this cuz I get it. He isn't a character people can empathize with.
ok but when his partner has done nothing wrong and his reasoning is weak and selfish it makes people dislike him and people don't wanna a about a character they don't like. if they met someone like him in real life I'm sure they wouldn't like that person either. he feels no real attachment to his partner, no guilt or remorse, and is most likely going to do it again. so I mean if your argument is that people in real life are assholes then yes this represents that aspect of life, but people don't want the assholes/bad guys in life to get a happy ending
I have literally never said people couldn't or shouldn't read different types of stories. hell, I'm not even dropping this. also I never said I support rape in Yaoi.
I personally enjoy different types of stories with characters that bring up questions of morality. However, this particular story so far for me isn't that interesting. Im not dropping it cuz maybe it will get better but so far the mc seems bland and one dimensional to me. he has no strong convictions one way or another.
the reason I enjoy different types of stories is because the characters are complex and even if they have done something horribly wrong a part of me still wants them to get a happy ending.
like in Killing Stalking, Sangwoo was a crazy murderous asshole, but as the story went on and you learn more about why he was the way he was you start to empathize with him (not that you agree with what he has done but you feel bad for him). its this conflict between right and wrong, empathy towards a person yet disgust for their actions that makes a story interesting.
Right now there is no real moral conflict. Mc is in the wrong and his motivations are bland. My whole purpose was not to try and tell people they shouldn't read this, it was to say I understand why some people don't want to read it. Some people want fluffy and a happily ever after and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
So many people are dropping this after knowing the uke cheated on seok il.It s so sad to know so many fellow fujoshis are this simple minded..For me this only makes things more interesting and exciting it makes me look forward to what s gonna happen next..this is what i live for not ur average lovey dovey couple stories where nothing ever goes wrong..This is real life and people cheat all the time (definitely not justifying cheating ).To each one of us his opinion but..really what s up with u guys ..U can definitely tell the author did put a lot of thinking and effort into this but u go ahead and drop this manga with a well thought plot and u get all hyped for some stupid weak plotted simple stories..At this rate a few years from now we ll only be getting stupid ass stories because that s what most fans are asking for..it sad..anyway..Im team Seok il all the way !
