I dropped this at Ch. 40 because I couldn't anymore with either of the MCs. Did it ever get any better?
Nope, I’m shocked there’s another season…
Thanks! Saves me the time to read 40+ chapters. I had to drop it midway and was wondering the same thing, if the plot improves.
I think this is the problem with Korean manhwa (as well as most kdrama) they prolong the story and let it meander for ratings.
Thank you
Thank you for all your hard work, translator-san! I bought all the English vols. up until they stopped offering them :(
The sex scenes are amazing in this. but I need equal amounts of plot advancement, because that's also amazing. Look at all this going on:
1. Can't wait until Shin finds out that Jake's made him his "gangster wife". He's gonna be super pissed!
2. Jake is setting Ross up to take another hit to his dealer reputation, so he'll be back sooner rather than later.
3. Speaking of Ross- it seems he's caught some feels for Shin. Ugh. I think he might end up bringing his business back to Lump Spark because that's the only way he can get close to Shin at this point.
4. Shin has a lot on his plate. He feels responsible for Lump Spark's loss of clients, he's worried about Jake getting gunned down in the streets, and he knows Grens is so fucked up, he's unable take care of himself. Shin is really carrying a lot of baggage.
5. Jake knows Shin's going through it and is depressed. This is definitely affecting him too. It's looking like his highest priority right now is distracting Shin and trying to find ways to make things better for him. The only way to deal with both his relationship with Shin and his spy job is to combine the two. If the CIA Director finds out he's been doing this, she's not going to be happy about it.
6. Caesar is also worried about Shin and is sticking closer to him. Jealous Jake is not liking this.
7. Still waiting on Shin discovering Jake's true identity. How will he find out? Will Hosung's hackers finally break into the CIA server? Will Caesar get frustrated with Jake's stonewalling and tell Shin herself? Will Jake feel the need to tell him or will he fuck up and get caught, like he almost was when he was video-calling Caesar and making her show Shin to him? Will Shin discover or figure it out on his own? Or will the author pull some other crazy twist out of their hat?
8. Jake is pretty cocky in his confidence, but he's made A LOT of enemies. His luck isn't going to hold out forever, as Izmel pointed out to him.
9. Ross is suspicious of Jake. Benille is suspicious of Jake. Biker dude wants revenge on Jake. If Grens finds out about Jake's relationship with Shin, you know he's going to be jealous AND paranoid. Jake's plan is to get Ross and Benille thrown in jail and to kill the biker dude. Grens is a loose cannon, but it looks like Jake does have some use for him. We'll see how all those plans play out for him.
10. Most importantly, Shin is Jake's weakness. Somebody's bound to exploit that before this is all done.
We can only hope all these issues don't crash in at once cause sheesh that would be a lot
I forgot to add the one about Ross finding out about Shin and Jake's relationship. He knows Jake (in a police uniform) retrieved Shin from him at the Royal Roader, but seems to have forgotten about that for now. He just caught on that Shin's involved with least one other man, so it's just a matter of time before he works it out
Excited to see what the author does with everything. Thus far this has honestly been the best BL I've ever read, purely because the relationship advancement has been great and the plot is actually compelling and well done. I think it's sort of unspoken between Shin and Jake at this point that they care a lot more for eachother than they let on. Enough that it may make them both weak.
I agree with this so much! I really like when Shin shows how adamant he is about protecting Jake, and Jake is like, “That’s so hot!!” Kinda rare to see in a seme character. This is also the best BL I’ve ever read
And Myeongshin finally reveals his true colors that he believes he has power over Executive Director Yoon through Chairman Kim. Now he is going to use it. You may worry about this-- and certainly poor Yoohan will-- but keep in mind that Jay is always two steps ahead of his opponent
This manhwa is completely chaotic. I'm team Elder Kang and I'm not totally confident my reasons for it are good :/
I know there's a group of Gren sympathizers and I get why they do, BUT-- a grown man suddenly listing Shin as his responsible "guardian" suspiciously reeks of being yet another manipulation tactic by Gren
ong... he pissing me off too
They're bottling up their feelings
No... just no Σ( ￣□￣||)
Nah, shinwoo’s pouring his feelings in hyowon
his seed u mean
Beat me to it
I missed comments so much-
Sameeee
Asami really went down the rabbit hole in this chapter, didn't he?
Yeah, yeah. I know where the door is.
Nah. You can stay. That was actually funny XD
Over there on my right, Mggo has a "people also like" list and #1 is Snakebite. Mggo thinks those who read Jinx are full-on masochists. Not the fun sex-kink kind, but the kind who enjoy getting their fingers slowly crushed in a car door. I don't have a good argument against their logic
Lmao WHAT
I’m sorry that’s so funny.
Is this pirate site judging us? Lmao
Sogo is solidly straight. Hyodou-sempai was only used as as substitute and he knows it. Tamaki is like his little brother, so that's not going to happen either. Whatever happened to that detective guy from the beginning? He had potential. I would love watching Yamato fall in love. It's hard seeing him struggle with his feelings of self-worth
My exact thoughts at this point in the story :)
Right, I really hope they don't end up together. A romantic relationship between them would seem so forced.
