I read this webtoon till s2 and never continued into s3 bcus there was this whole thing that Euihyun might be pregnant, and it sounded to me like the worst possible thing that could happen to him considering everything he was going through. Now everytime this updates i hear really good reviews so i wanna read it again, but i still can't tell if he's pregnant or not.
I think so
MY GODDDD the plot's perfect the pacing perfect the fucking couple is everything the art is gorgeous i'm convinced the creators made a deal w the devil HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE WHY IS THIS SO GOOD
It just gets better with EVERY update every new chapter is a hit when was the last time i read something like this
I'm so sorry I meant to like
According to Baka-updates his spin-off already exists, its called "Spread one's color" but its not licensed in english I NEED IT SO BAD?????
i dont like the translator's notes on soowon, this manga and it's characters are way more complex than just a simple "villain" or "hero", i find people who view him as a textbook villain so dumb, i mean are they even reading the story at all?? wtv the arc i'm usually on yona team's side but i can never bring myself to hate him or other characters cause the story is MORE than a simple "right" and "wrong"
while the characters are complex, soowon is the clear antagonist of the story. He is complex, but that doesn’t make him any less of a “villain” (for lack of better terms ig). I think it’s also important to note that people can hate complex characters. I acknowledge soowon’s complexity but I hate him and want him dead lmfao
Perception regarding characters is incredibly subjective, don’t get upset over people hating him just bc you don’t
i never said you're not allowed to hate him just because he's a complex character, i said i dislike the notion of fitting him into one simple category when there's so much history behind his actions and disregarding all he's done for the kingdom n its ppl, like ofc you're allowed to hate him he's hurt hak and yona so much but like u yourself mentioned perception is subjective so i don't hate him and i never blame the ppl who do (i just found the t/ns unnecessary)
Without wanting to start a War, if you look at it from everyone’s perspective other than Yona and Hak, Soowon is not really a villain.
King Il was an ineffective ruler, who had neglected his kingdom, in order to dedicate himself to his own beliefs. Although he was not evil in any sense, his pacifist philosophy, translated into a weakened kingdom, susceptible to invasion, famine, drugs and crime. Which is why throughout the whole story, the Author has shown that Soowon was welcomed as a hero by the whole kingdom and hardly anyone batted an eye for King Il’s death. A neglectful ruler who lets his people die is just as bad as a Tyrant who kills them himself.
Although, Yona was completely innocent in all that, in an impoverished land, when the Fire Tribe died of Famine, the Water Tribe fought with drug cartels and the neighboring kingdoms were constantly attacking, the People would hardly care about a Princess living in the lap of luxury while the whole kingdom falls apart.
Soowon has personally gone to manage all the most pressing issues that have been affecting the kingdom, and although he is always just one step behold Yona, this is an incredible mark of a good leader and something King Il refused to do in order to avoid conflict, in what I can only guess was a naive attempt at protecting Yona from her eventual March into battle, since he clearly always knew Yona was King Hiryu and would eventually be pulled into conflict.
So, although Soowon is clearly the villain to Yona and Hak, he could by no means be called the villain of the story, when his rise to power meant the unification and the revitalization of an entire kingdom, against the lives of a terrible ruler, his only daughter and her bodyguard.
That being sad, I love this story for its complexity and Yona and Hak Rule!!!
all of this!!!!!
even though it’s not explicitly stated that the seme is neurodivergent, ig he’s still heavily coded as nd? and it’s the first time i’m seeing something like this in a bl manga which is so nice!!
Very much so, and I greatly appreciated it as well!
Mafuyu from Given is also heavily coded as neurodivergent if you would like to check that out?
i’ll check it out, ty for the suggestion!!
the story seems interesting but i’m not getting like 80% of whatever they’re saying or whats going on because of the translation
Can someone who's read the first story summarize it for me so i can read this? It's kinda confusing and I'm not a fan of love triangles so don't wanna read the first one.
Not much relation. Except the ML here is the boss of the protagonist of the other story and MC was his FwB for a while. The protagonist picked MC's bro and MC was rejected by him and went to London.
Oh and ML is British.
Other story's MC also made pottery. He felt insecure because he compared himself to our MC and the guy ended up running away from our MC after our MC said something in reply to his question that he didn't like. I didn't read the full thing because I hated how he was portrayed over there. (〜￣△￣)〜
Side question: Didn't that guy steal a design as well from our MC?
tysm!!
ahhhhh... i dropped the main story because that Omega Mc pissed me off too much. If both of them were in fault,the main story MC would play victim, If Our MC was in fault, the main story would play victim, main story MC was in fault, he would still play White lotus victim. His whole personality is just feeling inferior to our MC and having victim mentality. So I kinda stopped reading it.
