I cannot feel empathy for someone who loses his temper because he sees someone depressed being depressed...
Dan is not healthy, he is not well mentally and this dude just abuses him? and then he reflects on it ok but that's your first reaction?
And he still blaming everybody but himself, he bought all of this upon himself until he did some serious reflection on EVERYTHING that happened till now and how he abuses Dan. I do not care for anything.
Dude is like 50% the reason Dan is in this condition
we don't know nothing about jaekyung and dan....70 chapters in
dan and jaekyung don't have a relationship outside of sex and they don't have nothing in common either
dan said he was in love with him but after jaekyung gave him a reality check, he dropped his feelings, he is obviously hurt but more because jaekyung did not trust him rather than jaekyung not loving him and jaekyung...he is an asshole, he only wants to fuck, period
I love it when people smell the kool aid
I don't understand
I shortened it from “wake up and smell the kool aid”, which references the saying to “wake up and smell the coffee”. Both mean the same thing, to realize the truth about your or somebody else’s situation (aka realizing jaekyung is just an asshole and doesn’t actually want good things for Dan). The saying can also reference the poisoned juice used in Jonestown, which killed like 900 people (I think that’s why the saying changed from coffee to kool aid, but I’m not sure). This can change the meaning a little bit to be “wake up and smell the masked poison in front of you”.
I was basically saying I was glad somebody else realized how bad the writing is and that jaekyung sucks.
Oh ok! I'm not from the US so I had no idea but yeah the writing is awful.
mingwa has absolutely no idea on what to do with the plot...i couldn't care less about the sex scenes, honestly, they are not consensual and they are not hot
also jaekyung's redemption arc is shitty, because he doesn't have any redeeming qualities.
it's not that jaekyung "can't" control himself, HE DOESN'T WANT TO
he knows everything already, he knows dan has hit rock bottom, he knows he is not healthy neither mentally not physically and he still chooses to fuck him anyways
it's how him would always put his needs and wants above dan's and it's dan's fault, of course, for tempting him or whatever
i couldn't care less about jaekyung's redemption arc or whatever
i just want dan to be happy, come on, grandma is right he'll end up kicking the bucket first at this point, he won't, i know but it's common to people with sick family members to end up sick themselves and dan it's obviously sick, most mentally than anything
what i can't believe is that jaekyung won't pull his head out of his as$ and realized he is part of it too
sure dan had a pretty rough life but he is the same guy who: insulted him, abused him, mistreated him, belittle him, hurt him ON PURPOSE many times i mean it's more that just used him for s3x, it's destroying the mental state of someone who was already pretty destroyed
i don't think mingwa remembers all that since she is trying to make us emphatize with jaekyung and im not sure she knows how to go with his redemption but more than that she needs to work on dan and his journey to get better for himself
maybe it's me but I'm tired of these grown ass men throwing a tantrum over nothing
yes I know he is toxic bla bla bla but maybe write a better conflict? something that's actually creepy
I think BL fans (and authors too) have a problem with accept stories like this because we (yes I include myself) are used to: no matter how twisted and disgusting a story can be, it will turn "romantic" and the top will have its redemption arc and not all of them have to be like that. For me, at least. Some will just be twisted, cruel, hard to read and that's OK.
Fiction can be about anything and I think there are no limits for fiction but there are for you, as a human and as a consumer.
Learn to choose what appeals to you and what doesn't and to consume it critically and then also judge it as a product.
This manhwa won't left me anything of value and that's fine...
I don't understand how updates worka here because another page its at least 5 chapters ahead and then the hiatus
I don't get it
The hiatus mentioned here is just the English tl. I believe it's because they don't have enough people translating everything so they keep having to put series on Hiatus.
but the chapters I mentioned in my comment are translated...
The official translation only goes to 93. The raws are only at like 96/97 right now, but whatever you saw wasn't the official English translation.
he took 10 business days to tell him what was going on
