Why isn't this being credited to Hontoku? Queen deserves respect
That's why the art's so familiar!!

At least the monster-dicked seme IS a monster here…plus honestly his dick smaller compared to Korean manhwa human semes…
haha i know, it's a touch and cheek joke about how in the old days of like 90s/aughts jpn yaoi the proportions were like this just for normal characters
The first two set the mood so intensely that ny the third one I thought he was going to jump off the school roof after hearing what he did Happy I was wrong lol. One sweet story and a bunch of depressing ones

Ikr I was genuinely thinking where the fuck do they even live to end up with all those weirdos
if you want any spoilers of the plot/characters from the novel, lmk
Spoil it please
How much or who would you like to know about
Hi there!
Will brown haired guy and taesan end up tgt?
And will Taesan live a peaceful live when he’s an adult ?
Hi!
1. Short answer: Yes & No lol. No, in that they're not dating and Taesan essentially has zero choice in anything that happens to him. Taesan never ever ends up liking Junwoo in any way. Yes, in that it's implied they've done things together and that Junwoo forced it so Taesan only has him so they are 'together' in that sense.
2. Yes, he lives a peaceful adult life! Someone asked about this during an interview a couple of years ago. The author said Taesan works at a quiet countryside town office that he commutes to by rusty old bike lol. (At the end of the story, Kang Jun tells him to forget university and to become a civil servant because the ordeal with Junwoo ruined his scores too much, so it looks like he took his advice). Also at the end, Kang Jun gave Taesan his own graduation bouquet to him as a gift (more like he was embarrassed to hold it lol) because he knew it was the last time he'd probably see him again. Apparently Taesan dried the flowers and uses them as bookmarks :')
Long answer explaining kind of how they end up like that:
Junwoo becomes increasingly more obsessed with Taesan, bullying him and isolating him from everyone else in the class so he's essentially all Taesan has, although Taesan tries to ignore that it's happening in a way. Junwoo becomes increasingly more brazen about it, less 'bullying' and more .. strange behavior that all the other boys in the class begin to pick up on.
At one point, Taesan shows up at Kang Jun(MC)'s house at like 4 in the morning, miserable and beaten up. Kang Jun wars with himself but invites him in and tries to help him, in turn learning about his problems (poor, sick grandmother = can't transfer schools). While that's happening, Kang Jun notices his phone being blown up by Junwoo, before he hears his doorbell going off like crazy. When he goes down to try and open the gate and speak sense, Junwoo just races in and acts like a rabid animal, going crazy screaming for Taesan before turning to beat Kang Jun black and blue. Kang Jun cries while trying to fight him off and Taesan cries for MC, before Junwoo grabs Taesan (which makes him vomit) and drags him off.
Later on in school, 2 rumors start spreading. One, that Junwoo's gay. Two, that Kang Jun and him had a falling out because Kang Jun couldn't put up with his gay antics anymore, but he had his ass handed to him by Junwoo and that's why he's showing up to school having been all beat up.
Junwoo's reputation plummets because everyone thinks he's gay, and he becomes the class pariah. Yohan uses this to climb the social hierarchy to overtake him as top dog. He mocks Junwoo for being gay and starts to torment him (trashing his books etc). Junwoo tries to lash out and begins asking why him and Kang Jun are always together, asking if /they/ are together in the same way everyone's making fun of him and Taesan for. This leads to a huge HUGE blowup dragout fight, with them both leaving school in an ambulance but with Yohan as the clear winner. After this Junwoo is entirely ruined and doesn't come back to school. Later Kang Jun hears from his parents that his family went bankrupt. Taesan shows up to school, bruises fading for once instead of multiplying, but his eyes are dead. Junwoo never really shows back up at school, but sometimes Kang Jun sees him waiting at the school gates for Taesan. At another point, Kang Jun runs into Taesan and while talking to him notices small blisters around his mouth. When he tries to point them out, Taesan runs away, which has Kang Jun spiral into thinking about what him and Junwoo must be doing. Basically throughout the rest of the novel, Taesan tries to move through school quietly, avoiding Junwoo. Junwoo isn't even in school, but he waits around the school still to try and be with him. There's some other key roles that Taesan plays in regards to Kang Jun/Yohan, but that's his life with Junwoo.
How does Taesan eventually completely escape from Junwoo, and how does Jun and Yohan's relationship play out?
THANK YOU SO MUCH. Honestly only reading the story for Taesan. Tell me everything about him. And so Junwoo is poor and bankrupt now with no job?
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!! I’m glad they didn’t end up together because Taesan deserves SO MUCH BETTER, I loathe Junwoo for all of the bs he did to him & I’m sad that he can’t do anything about Junwoo pestering him.
Tysm again for taking your time to write the long answer I truly appreciate it <3 Have a great day!!
Hello thank u for telling us but where did u read the novel???
He's one of the primary minor characters, so once the story switches into their 3rd and final year of high school, you don't see him as much because they don't share a class together anymore ; ;
IMO, the main role of Taesan is to provide the reason of why Kang Jun is pushed away from Junwoo and towards Yohan, and to act as his foil character in a way, while also being very similar (in circumstance) too. Once Junwoo is gone, Yohan becomes a little more 'friendly' with Kang Jun outright and Taesan is one of the first people to realize it. There's moments where Yohan does something that makes Kang Jun jolt and flush with embarrassment and when he looks up Taesan is there to witness it lol. But Kang Jun refuses to believe it is what it is.
Taesan tries to help him during some parts. He calls Kang Jun one night to warn him that Yohan is a weird person. Before, Kang Jun got top marks as his score and when he opened up his locker there was a note congratulating him, a little flower, and a crushed up twitching roach. He couldn't figure out who did it, but the note called him Jun-ah, which only Taesan or Yohan really use. Anyway, on the call, Taesan says it was Yohan. He explained how he wanted to congratulate Jun and went to put a letter in his locker early before class. And that's when he saw Yohan watching him, silently. He stared at him the whole time so Taesan got uncomfortable and tried to run away, but before he could Yohan laughed at him and said he was disgusting like a roach. Jun can't believe him, and is more creeped out by the fact that Taesan wanted to give him a letter. (When the bug scene happens, Yohan plays totally dumb to it lol) But Taesan continues warning Jun that Yohan is obsessed with him in 'that' way. I'll put the passage in:
*****
After a brief hesitation, Han Taesan’s voice grew firm, as if he’d made up his mind.
-“G-Go Yohan… I think he’s obsessed with you. In that way…”
“In that way?”
-“…”
“Taesan, what do you mean? What way?”
-“He… he…”
“He?”
-“He’s… into you in a way that’s different from others. Be careful… that’s all I wanted to say…”
He didn’t finish his sentence, but I understood what he meant. I stopped pressing him and kept my mouth shut. Honestly, I hadn’t expected him to say this much. More precisely, I didn’t think Han Taesan would notice something like this. How could he know what even I didn’t? Without any evidence? It was shocking.
Then again, maybe that’s what experience does. Han Taesan, who had openly faced sexualized gazes from men, and I, who had only been beaten senseless by Han Junwoo, must have seen the world through very different lenses.
*****
He disregards him, only to find out he's completely right.
Flash forward a little bit and there's a huge explosion between Kang Jun and Yohan that forces Kang Jun to be in a similar role to how Taesan was at the beginning. Yohan bullies Kang Jun and isolates him from the rest of the class so none of the other students feel comfortable being friendly with him (unless they too want to see Yohan's wrath) and the ones looking to get on Yohan's good side more viciously bully him. Things start happening to him, like 'accidentally' getting hit in the face by a ball or having his indoor shoes stolen, but he refuses to believe he's like Taesan.
This is when he gets hit in the face with the ball and has to go to the nurse because his nose won't stop bleeding, and he runs into Taesan there (Yohan broke is arm & his feet are messed up bc he stepped on glass after his shoes were stolen):
*****
An awkward silence passed. Just as Han Taesan seemed to collect himself, his gaze shifted from his hand to my arm, and then down to my feet. At that moment, a shadow of doubt clouded his large, round eyes. His expression brimmed with suspicion.
Once again, my feet tingled with guilt. Assuming I knew what Han Taesan was thinking, I rushed to explain.
“No, it’s not… what you’re thinking.”
“…”
“You’re misunderstanding.”
“I…”
Han Taesan’s expression was serious. At that moment, I couldn’t bring myself to look him in the eye. His previous warning to me echoed relentlessly in my head. The one I had ignored.
Even now, I didn’t fully believe it. My conscience, patchworked with flimsy hope, refused to accept the truth. It wasn’t entirely wrong—nothing like what happened to Han Taesan had ever happened to me. The kind of violence he had faced.
“What… what do you think I’m misunderstanding?”
But the reason I couldn’t outright deny his words was that I was starting to realize an uncontrollable situation had been inching closer for some time now. If Han Junwoo represented violence, Go Yohan symbolized indifference. Stroking the rough surface of the cast on my arm, I murmured as if to justify myself.
“I don’t know exactly what you think, but if it’s what I suspect you’re thinking… No, I wasn’t hit.”
“…”
“I fell. I stepped on glass. I got hit by a soccer ball. That’s all.”
“Kang Jun.”
Han Taesan spoke in a calm, serious tone. Though his usual stammer was still there, his voice carried a weight that it hadn’t before.
“You’re… you’re too kind, so you don’t see it.”
“…”
“It started the same for me, too—with a soccer ball falling out a window.”
“…”
“The second time, it was my shoes. My shoes were thrown in the dump.”
“Taesan, you have a tendency to overthink things.”
“N-no.”
For once, Han Taesan spoke without stuttering, “…Go and check for yourself.”
I couldn’t bring myself to meet his gaze, which seemed to say, It’ll be there. Instead, I looked down, pressing the tissue harder against my nose. My shoes aren’t in some garbage dump. Someone must’ve stolen them and worn them—they were expensive and nice, after all. There’s no reason for me to dig through a dump to confirm something like that.
The tissue in my hand began to smell faintly of blood. I shook my head harder. Yet Han Taesan’s low, persistent voice continued to haunt me.
“Jun-ah, you’re smart.”
“…”
“Not like me…”
Han Taesan didn’t know much about me. I wasn’t kind, and I wasn’t smart. Sure, there was a time when I believed I was smart. But once I realized I was just an eighteen-year-old with no real wisdom, the truths I thought I knew were thrown straight into the trash. I crumpled the tissue in my hand, its dampness smearing blood across my palm.
“I’ve told you before—I’m not the good person you think I am.”
This time, it was Han Taesan who shook his head.
“N-no.”
“No, I’m not.”
Han Taesan’s unwavering goodwill made me uncomfortable. It was such a vexing kindness that it made my face twist with irritation.
That discomfort couldn’t be neatly labeled as any particular emotion. It simply grated on my nerves. Silently, I discarded the now-useless tissue and pulled out a new one. I folded it neatly into a square that fit in my palm, then pressed it against my nose. Han Taesan awkwardly tried to help but, realizing I’d already managed on my own, failed and chuckled softly.
“You’re just a little… immature.”
“What?”
I frowned and glared at him. Immature? Me? But I tried to mask my annoyance. Taking a slow, controlled breath, I forced a smile onto my face.
“Taesan, I hate to break it to you, but I’m plenty mature.”
“Anyone who thinks like that… isn’t mature.”
Yet even in the face of my rebuttal, Han Taesan just laughed and said:
“…You’ll become a really good adult.”
“…”
“You were the only one who helped me.”
*****
Hopefully these snippets let you see how good of a person he is :')
And yeah, Junwoo really stops showing up in the story after his big defeat. It's crazy but if I'm remembering right, the last time they talk about him is right after they take each other's virginities in the side stories lmfao the memory of him just pops into their heads after being absent for so long.
Hi! I read the novel a couple of years ago on RIDI! I'm working on an English TL of the novel, but so far I only have volumes 1-4(chapters 1-18) completed. I still have 3 chapters until i'm finished with the main story sadly!
Graduation essentially. In the third year, everyone was shifted into a new class besides Yohan and Kang Jun who stayed together. So he isn't seen much in the story after that point, which happens maybe about halfway through the novel. He just lays low, and Junwoo doesn't attend classes, just still waits outside the gates for Taesan.
The author wrote that Junwoo and Taesan did have contact after graduation and had initially written a scene about it, but scrapped it thinking it was too much. She did divulge that even though there's a point of contact, Taesan hates Junwoo so much that even if they happen to meet by chance, he'd just glare at him and it wouldn't lead to anything. She said he had grown internally and learned to let go of his fear and anger.
Kang Jun and Yohan's relationship is so messy and complex /laughs but they're really my all time favorite characters because of it. I think if I wrote a long post detailing even just the key points it'd be 10 miles long haha but if you want that I can try.
Basically TLDR version, the whole situation with Junwoo and Taesan pushes them closer. Junwoo is destroyed because of his fight with Yohan, and Yohan ursurps his throne and Kang Jun swaps roles from being known as Junwoo's right hand man to Yohan's.
They have a series of hot and cold moments where they're close to when Yohan gives him the cold shoulder because Kang Jun does something to tick him off, but he never realizes what. Yohan also does some pretty strange things during this time that come into play later.
Eventually it gets better and they're super close again. They're each other's deskmates and Yohan starts coming to Kang Jun's house to fool around while he studies. There's one moment where Yohan's leaving and Kang Jun tells him to take a cab home and Yohan gives him a funny look. And another where Yohan asks Kang Jun to walk him home, which Kang Jun balks at saying it's weird for guys to do. Yohan is upset because all this time Kang Jun has never realized that Yohan is his neighbor, which is one of the main stress points of their friendship: that Kang Jun never really outright asks anything about Yohan or seems to care about anyone but himself. Also around this time Kang Jun runs into Yohan's father outside of the church, and when he brings it up to Yohan he completely goes quiet and pale which makes Jun curious.
Kang Jun ends up having to go to Yohan's house where finds the secret to Yohan's home life (he's isolated and ostracised by his family, and left to fend for himself), which tugs at his heart strings enough that he invites Yohan to come to his house (he's living alone atp because his parents are working abroad and his old housekeeper quit). Partially because he feels bad for him, but mostly because it makes him feel good about himself that the strongest guy in school has to seek refuge in him.
Yohan kind of starts moving into his house. There's a series of events that happened that led to this culmination point, but basically there's a huge blow up where Kang Jun finds out both of Yohan's deepest secrets (one being that he's gay), and Yohan starts freaking out screaming. Kang Jun tries to calm him down by playing dumb, but Yohan turns it onto him as a way to protect himself, calling him out as being the same. They fight and eventually settle by both playing dumb to each other because they're too prideful to give in lol. Kang Jun realizes Yohan's family issues must be because he's gay, so he offers to help him. They go to Yohan's house to enact their plan when there's a moment where he sees just how sad Yohan is within this family, so Kang Jun has this spontaneous moment where he decides to do something (force Yohan's family to eat dinner with him) for someone else's sake for the first time, no ulterior motives, and it completely blows up in his face. Yohan has like a panic attack and basically attacks Kang Jun in his room. He's crying. Kang Jun's crying. They're all a mess. Kang Jun manages to shove him off and make a run for it but he trips iirc and Yohan grabs him again and holds him down. Still crying he threatens that if Kang Jun leaves he's dead but Kang Jun bashes him with an alarm clock and runs out. He runs into Yohan's sister and tries to make an excuse but his face and arm are a mess and his shirt's all ripped.
When he goes to school later Yohan treats him like he's nothing. He eventually finds himself as the new victim, getting ostracized and bullied by all the students because of Yohan.
Annnd I'm realizing this TLDR isn't a TLDR AT ALL i'm so sorry i'll stop here and if you want to know more i'll keep going it's just hard to explain anything without giving details or else it kind of doesn't make sense /cryinglaughing
like even just when people simplify it down to a trope like enemies to lovers to enemies its wrong because there was none of that LOL this is one of those stories with way too many intricacies
Meee.. I was curious too..
What is the title of the novelor even what is the picture of it I need to come references
It's still called Eighteen's Bed in Korean! 열여덟의 침대 ~ Novel picture? Each volume has a different cover; you can look at them all here https://namu.wiki/w/%EC%97%B4%EC%97%AC%EB%8D%9F%EC%9D%98%20%EC%B9%A8%EB%8C%80 The light/colors of each cover are indicative of the emotion in that chapter ^^
Wow you’re absolutely AMAZING! Thank you si much! Could you give a link to read your english translation please? I’m reaally excited about it
thank you^^ i don't have it posted yet, as i'm working on a complete formatted epub version to give to friends. but if enough people are interested, i can try to post the chapters i already have finished somewhere? i'll have to figure that out lol
I pressed on the link and went to the bottom completing plot, characters, overview all that. But can't see the chapters? I clicked on something and it showed JJBA.
Oh, I thought that person just wanted to see what the books looked like so I linked the book's wiki page
Could you send me the proper chapters? And novelupdates doesn't show chapters. I don't mind arduously back breakingly translating myself B'). Go Yohan has seduced me too badly that I'm obsessed.
Btw have u seen the animation of 18's bed? It's on youtube and insta.
I bought on RIDI so where I read is locked behind paywall! Sometimes you can find the raws though, I'll be able to check around tomorrow if you want to MTL yourself☆ I did!! Mrblue released it as a manhwa promo and it seriously made me burst into tears hahaha! This book and characters mean so much to me, so I was so worried this manhwa adaptation would be trash, but that animation teaser put all my worries to bed :') they really captured the atmosphere well
Will the story be centered around mc and yohan or more abt mc and juwoon + taesan?
thanks so much for this. i read this a long time ago and ive been struggling to remember what happened but i refuse to put myself through this novel again LOL i had literal heart palpitations the first time through from stress…. would you mind explaining what exactly led to the whole blow up? i remember yohan’s sister told kang jun that yohan had just been acting/lying to kang jun, but i don’t remember what exactly he was lying about. i thought it was something along the lines of yohan choosing to isolate himself from his family versus the other way around, but i guess not…?
It's completely and entirely centered around Kang Jun and Yohan! The situation with Taesan is introduced as a plot device to give a reason for Kang Jun to leave Junwoo and to become closer to Yohan. They're also meant to be mirrors in a way; they follow the same trajectory, but end up differently because of different motivations. Whereas Kang Jun and Yohan are extremely complex, Taesan and Junwoo are written as very stereotypical manhwa BL (Taesan = pretty boy who's unwaveringly kind but struggles financially because of a sick grandmother, Junwoo = handsome rich playboy who gets away with everything because family connections and money). The shallowness of their characters is meant to act an amplifier for the main couples' intricacies!
Junwoo and Taesan's story pretty much ends a couple of chapters into the novel, and they begin to fade out as characters that show up regularly. There's a large revolving cast of side characters that are all important.
Haha! I love it so much so I reread it probably way to often but I understand you! I remember my first read, all the twists had me pacing the room!
Good memory! Do you mean the initial blow up? Kang Jun has that talk with Rosa after his ostracization period and after they 'make up' and go back to being friends, and it leads to another blow up lol.
It's kind of both! He was putting on an act a little because he wanted Kang Jun's attention, but it's also true that his family treats him strange. But that's all because the father treats all the children strange, and kind of pits them all against each other to earn his affection, and Yohan just can't handle it.
So, the secondary blow up is Kang Jun feeling like he'd been played a fool for Yohan's amusement when that wasn't entirely the case, because (especially later) you find out it was true in a way. I think it's extremely clear when Yohan saves Kang Jun from the acid attack and is suffering in the hospital getting skin grafts, and his family barely visits. And like the one time his dad does visit, he gives Kang Jun Yohan's guardian card, basically giving Yohan to him to care for. And that's when it clicks to him that Yohan wasn't lying.
Thank you!! And please continue explaining if you can!! You really explain it so well.
Ooohhhh I see, yeah my memory was pretty off. Honestly I remember walking away from this novel having a pretty negative opinion on Yohan (I specifically recall going back to the novel page to check if he had the 또라이 tag because I was so confused about him LOL) but reading your summary makes me think I may have judged him too harshly (although I’m sure we can all agree both him and Kang Jun are deeply flawed regardless). I am curious though, if you remember the side stories in his POV, didn’t he kind of just believe in all the rumors about Kang Jun until the test paper incident? Would you happen to remember what exactly made him change his mind? (Also by any chance are you the OG translator from the novel a few years back???)
Does Taesan at least end up happy ? Like I know he transfers schools and juwoo keeps harassing him but I hope he eventually leaves him alone so he can be happy
He doesn't transfer schools! He confides in Kang Jun that it's not possible; he came to Seoul because his grandmother has pancreatic cancer and is getting treatments, so he's there for her and can't let her know what's happening to him and doesn't have any money to make it better because of the grandmother's situation.
Junwoo basically harrasses him until the end, it's just that he's not in the school anymore so it's a little easier for Taesan to try and dodge him.
He finds happiness in his adult life~
Deeply flawed for sure! They're both terrible people in their own ways, but they're still just kids haha I think a lot of this comment section is too harsh on them. I'm actually the opposite though! I found Kang Jun to come off as the more reprehensible one, because his pride is overbearing, he's quick to judge, and he schemes over everything lol. Yohan is similar, but Yohan had a rough upbringing whereas Kang Jun was at least showered with love by his parents so I give him more of a pass hahaha.
This is where you got me! I need to brush up on my sides because I don't reread them that often lol mostly just the main university parts. Which rumors? The test paper accident meaning when the teacher filled in his answers for him after time was up, right?
And no! I'm a different one haha. I'm not sure if it's the same, but the last I heard there was a translator who decided not to finish and deleted all the posts, and now I think there's someone new trying to attempt?
Omg where does the acid hit him ? Like which part of his body ? Also what happens after Yohan begins tormenting Kang Jun ? How do they resolve it and end up together. Thank you so much for all this info btw you are awesome !!
Mostly his shoulders. Yohan tackles him out of the way and takes the hit. The attacker, Minho, wanted to ruin Kang Jun's face because it'd dually hurt Jun and Yohan.
Yohan torments him in a different way from how Junwoo tormented Taesan. Whereas Junwoo would beat him up himself and force others to beat him up, Yohan treats him with like he's nothing, effectively isolating him from the rest of the class. While it makes Kang Jun miserable, he finds a refuge of kindness in Shin Jaehyun. Jaehyun brings Kang Jun food to eat (he won't go to the cafeteria because he has no one to sit with) under the pretense that he can't eat it himself, and let's him hide out in a different classroom to avoid Yohan and everyone else during lunch and breaks. He also erases graffiti on the desks about how Kang Jun is Yohan's abandoned 'wife'. Caveat is that if Yohan is anywhere near, Jaehyun disappears.
Eventually Yohan folds and is the first to try and send out an "olive branch", but Kang Jun's pride won't let him take it and they keep going with their continued Cold War lol. Yohan keeps trying though, even though since he's also angry it comes across poorly. Once he finds out about Jaehyun, he tried to up the ante to get Kang Jun back, but it just leads to more blow ups.
Kang Jun gets into a fight when one of Junwoo's old clique tries to beat him up, but Jun wins by remembering moves Yohan taught him on how to win a fight. When he wakes up in the hospital, Yohan is asleep next to him. They get into another huge fight interspersed with Yohan trying to make up but it doesn't work and Yohan leaves and doesn't come back.
When Jun goes back to school, he's both teased for being a momma's boy (his parents got the kid kicked out pretty much) and praised for winning. This gives him some nerve to push back against those trying to irritate him. When he does it, Yohan jumps in and starts praising him, which throws everyone off since they were all under the impression he hated him. Yohan essentially bullied the boy bullying Jun away, and then they're left alone. Yohan tried to make up with him again, this time being more vulnerable, so much so that he actually cries. The entire time Jun is thinking Yohan's crazy and that it's all another calculated act before finally deciding he'll go along with it for his own school peace, although he severely distrusts Yohan.
That's how they 'get back together' before they blow up again /laughcries
So I have to type Mrblue and the raws will show up?
MrBlue has the raws for the manhwa; there's 9 chapters to buy!
ah rumors might have been the wrong word for it, i was just talking about the extra on yohan’s pov regarding events at the beginning/before the novel. i think there was a part where yohan did bad (ish) on a test and then kang jun wrote a little comment on his paper and yohan found it cute or smth?
and i think i just side with kang jun more because he actually had to undergo the bullying rip ㅠㅠ yohan (at least from what i recall) was always top dog at school even if he had issues with his family, and i always thought it was implied that kang jun’s family was neglectful, if loving.
I'll have to go back and look! Because during the novel there's a scene like that where Kang Jun accidentally sees one of the scores on Yohan's papers and leaves a note apologizing and cheering him on a bit, but that happened when Yohan was already obsessed with/in love with Kang Jun. Even though Kang Jun didn't know Yohan / hated him, it was love at first sight for Yohan since he saw him in 1st year.
I can see that, yeah. Yohan was dual top dog with Junwoo, but everyone acknowledged that he was still under him so he wasn't top of the top until he took him out. When it comes to Kang Jun's bullying, all the worst of it comes from the boys trying to impress Yohan, and there's so many moments where Yohan tries to get him back but Kang Jun is just so insanely prideful and stubborn that he can never see apology or regret for what it is, and spins all sorts of tales in his head for why it's not real which makes him lash out and Yohan prickle back and then it starts all over again /laughs. I felt for him during the bullying arc, but so many times I just wanted to shake him and tell him to get out of his own head and stop misjudging every action lol.
Yeah! Kang Jun's family is pretty absent, since his parents are always at work. He even says that he knows they love work more than him no matter what they say, but still they're kind to him and when he needs them to be there they are, and even if the situation is grim, they don't blame him and try to comfort him instead. Meanwhile, Yohan's parents kind of treat him like a leper, and while they help him out of the problems that he causes too, he gets a bunch of verbal abuse hurled at him whenever it happens. He's so starved of attention and affection in his family it's why he does so much weird stuff when they're around because he'll take anything he can get.
oh word actually i think that is the scenario im talking about, im probably misremembering because i had originally thought that was the turning point for yohan. sorry i think im confusing myself in trying to recall the events of the novel lol. also sorry for bombarding you with questions LOL, i have one last ask - have you read the new extras on ridi? the one that came out last year, i think it was like an omegaverse extra? have you read it? is it any good if you have? the reviews on the ridi seem really mixed but i can’t tell if it’s just people who don’t like omegaverse or if the content itself is not fun
It's funny, I just read the latest manhwa chapter and that scene is included! But it's okay, I love answering questions and talking about this book haha it's nice to see people start to come to know it after all these years, y'know.
Oh man!! I almost fell over when I saw she published that!!!! Imagine your favorite novel getting an extra piece 4 years later ahhhhh. I bought it and read the first chapter but I haven't had time to fully dive in! I don't think it's omegaverse though? I remember there's a line at the beginning in the prologue kind of, where it's like 'i'm the alpha and omega, first and last, beginning and end' but the chapter passages following were just Kang Jun coming home sweaty and stripping to go take a shower, coming out to find Yohan hiding in the laundry room getting himself off with his face stuffed into Jun's sweaty undies lol. But there wasn't any omegaverse talk what I read so far. Work is busy for novel reading so I was going to wait for my vacation next month to eat it up haha.
May I know what’s the main role of Jaehyun in the story? Does he stay as the MC’s friend even after high school? Or do they no longer interact after highschool like Taesan?
Oh thank you that was truely helpful..
Wait are they translated in English? Or still it's written in Korean language? Because I know redi is a Korean site right? I was trying to have a account in redi but apparently they don't have a English version of it? And you have to pay for each manga that you want to read? But since I was a student I can't pay for each chapter..
Jaehyun helps Kang Jun during the time he is being bullied, which allows him to survive at the school. He's also who Kang Jun decides to force himself into liking instead of Yohanz although it doesn't work because he can't bring himself to. Jaehyun is the person who enlightens Kang Jun to the entire situation on Yohan (and Junwoo too) and himself and how they are all viewed by their peers and why what's happening is happening. He's also the only person besides Kang Jun to see Yohan for what he really is. After high school he also fades, though their last meeting is the catalyst for Kang Jun's last huge explosion with Yohan.
They're Korean novels just in Korean! There hasn't been any finished English translation published. RIDI is if you want to try and read the full novel in Korean, and MrBlue is where you need to go if you want to read the manhwa in Korean since it's ahead, but they're all paid if you're trying to support the author and read there ㅠ
Hi.. can you share the epub version that you're working on please? I saw on novelupdates,but only a few has been updated. Pretty please
I'm not finished yet ; ; when I get done I'll most likely share on my discord
What's your discord? Let me follow you.
Yeah me too.. I was Interested in your record.. count me in too..
But i can't understand Korean?.. wait even in Mr. Blue is also a Korean language too? Or they have atleast a translation in English version?
For those interested, send a PM so I can remember and I'll send a server invite when it's ready
I'm deadly interested
Do ML and MC end up together after all that push-pull?

thank you for the spoiler!!
Hello, I'm curious to know what exactly happens to Jun and Yohan. Can you spoil it for me if you don't mind?
Omg can you please send me an invite too?
Was it Yohan that took the picture btw? If yes how did he find out? I want every detail pls lol
Yohan took the photo, and Jun finds out because he has a sneaking suspicion it's him once he realizes theh are next door neighbors. So one day he finds Yohan sleeping in class and registers his fingerprint into his phone. They get close and start going to each other's house more often, and one day while Yohan is in the shower his father calls him and Jun picks up the call. During the call he finds out the true reality of Yohan's relationship with his father, which shocks him a bit. But then he realizes this is the perfect time to check the photo gallery, so he does. He sees all sorts of random strange pictures of things, but also finds a ton of photos of himself since before him and Yohan were friends, back in first year, all sneakily taken. He's shaking when he realizes what it means, and when he scrolls further, he finds the picture he was looking for- the one from the window at dawn, and that's when he knows.
hello pleaseee tell me what happens during their university days and what happens during the 2nd blow up, i only finished the novel up unti chapter 8.2 so im still really curious!
oh and can u also send me an invite to ur server? i would love to read the full translated ver. of the novel :))
Mmm love seeing a man crushed body and soul. Hope this author's pillow continues to be cool on both sides
Whoa, started cute and then the repeating chapters 5x over leading into some of the worst mtl translation panels, then leading into the note about the author having abandoned this story? So much time wasted I won't get back lol.
it’s not discontinued though. they’re misinformed. the story is actually completed, with an actual ending. just gonna wait for someone to actually translate it all lol
that's good to know! kinda whack that a 'translator' is mistranslating something so huge that it's spreading false information though sheesh.
