Not to mention the rape/abuse trope has been a staple feature in almost every BL story that’s been published. Is it right? Of course not. But it’s a common plot device among authors. You would think as “thinking” beings, these readers would save themselves the trouble and do the logical thing but...they aren’t so logical are they?
YUP. this story has been out going on 2 years so there are nearly no new readers with how popular this is on front pages. Mf’s are still around after all this time because they prob secretly like the very same things they complain about. There is no way you could stick around this long thru all the mistreatment unless you like it or fantasize about it - because fake SJW’s are real and are in these comments.
I think it's more about the development of their relationships. Like, it get better but then one of them gonna fuck it up because of their issues. And then the other reader get disappointed after having their hope crushed for the better relationship/character development. But then it does kinda makes sense, with the characters' personality and background, there's no way they'll just change that easily. But yeah, I agree with you about what type of story this and knowing what to expect
Char-develop isn’t always to goodness. Sometimes its to wickedness and even more cruelty. Like SH started out as just forcing him to paint and live under his care. now we are all the way to tieing him up and threatening death to his family. That’s the arc the author wanted before the redemption. Some readers are hoping for something that isn’t there or isn’t there yet because the author didn’t want to go that direction 1st. Ppl hate the ship but still reading and condemning the ship nearly 2 years in. It’s the epitome of hypocrisy
Been saying that before too. Some people do too and they ended up getting bashed. Some ppl just can't take the truth. A person I had an argument with here on Mangago even accused that the author is bla bla bla, entitled and disrespects this subject, and u know what? That person's basis is the ONE WORK of the author that they read here. It's a webtoon and the person actually called them many names just because of their work. Just one work.
So u be careful or u might end up being bashed.
One time, there was this webtoon where there was a cliffhanger of a character being raped/molested. It wasn't clear yet at that point and ppl pointed a finger on one of the characters saying, "u rapist" but turns out he didn't rape the other chara but assaulted them. After that, I just said "see, that's why u don't comment immediately, see what gonna happen first" and they accused me of tolerating the molesting that had happened to the character. I just said that if we were to take this in the real world and press charges, do we press rape chargers on that character, instead of assault even tho what he did was assault? I didn't say in any way that assault is good but I still got bashed for what I sai. All I said was to not assume and give credit to whom it's due. But some people couldn't take the truth, hun.
Plus, many fans here are toxic since this webtoon is popular. It's a den for entitled kids.
I agree with u, if u don't like it, scram. No need to push ur values in life to us. Sigh. I'm tired of seeing people who "cancel" everything. Like "oH tHis story hAs lIkE 2 ToXic eVEnts, cAnCEl iT nOw. perIOdT." Like what's the use of a story without a problem? And if we're looking to it realistically, there's no person on earth who has no toxic traits. So naturally that's gonna show on the story. So you'll cancel it just because there are a few" toxicities"? my god. They should just go back to reading their kid-friendly fanfictions where literally, everyone is happy and perfect. Smh.
I agree. Like why are we all assuming that it's for goodness? What if the author wants a tragic and bitter ending?
Although I think it's gonna get better soon but the author isn't taking any shortcuts, that's why they're adding more fuel to the fire. Readers, why can't we just wait before hating? Sigh.
In my opinion, the abuse is there to make the reader react and to make the reader feel what the character is feeling. So given that, it’s only natural that people are reacting negatively and being sad and all. But yeah saying that you don’t want to see the abuse at all is just a hopeless wish lol because in some extent that’s the whole point
Why are you guys still complaining about the abuse. FIRST OF ALL THE STORY IS FAKE. No one is actually getting abused. Second of all from the byeonduck's interview it's kind of obvious she has some type abuse kink/fetish, so this element will probably still continue in her story. By now you would have stopped reading a while ago if it really bothered you. Lastly you guys complain a lot for not paying for a single chapter.
