It's literally not about the smut.
It's about NK being abused through nearly every chapter of this story.
I don't think it'll get any better..
idk the smut is disgusting (to me), and the only thing i'll get out of this is hopefully nakyum's happy ending. the story repeats a lot, just when seungho is getting better, he returns to his abusive self.
If it's the abuse topic that bothers you then that's totally understandable. My point comes from what I've seen people saying they're dropping this story just because it's not going up and up like they want in terms of fan service. I totally kept wishing for things to be great romantically, but that's not it for this story. But some people expected that even after all the chapters we've witnessed. This definitely isn't a love story.
I hope that made sense on my part. Again, the abuse topic is understandable 100%.
Yeah, I get that we love the smut that goes on, but there's also an actual story to follow along. I don't think you should drop it just because the characters aren't going the direction you want them to go. The author has a story and we're simply following it.
But that's just my opinion. I'm excited to see if things get better, truly.
