I am so here for them.

The Drama is so good.

I love Dochan but I'm also rooting for our friends gone enemies maybe gone lovers duo.
They're angsty and toxic. That's gonna make for great drama besties.

And the art is so good. Love this author.

That season 1 ending is (⊙…⊙ )

TheOldYaoiFan created a topic of Jinx

I mean we all want Dan to leave but did y'all forget how much money he owes JK?
Plus he gives him a real good salary and he currently really needs the money.

Sure he owes him a lot cause tbh JK did help in many ways and Dan is such a lovely person that he is loyal to someone who helped him sm but I'm sure money is also the bigger issue here. Plus Dan was blackballed from the industry because of that creepy senior doc he rejected long ago so I'm sure he's worried about finding another job and especially finding one that doesn't involve pervs coming at him and pays well enough.

So Idk I feel like there's a sense of financial security and somewhat safety that Dan is worried about losing here too PLUS his feelings for/ crush on JK of course.

I can kinda understand where Dan's character is coming from, though he's being mistreated and abused in some ways he feels protected in many other ways and he prolly feels less alone cause for once someone is there to support him and sometimes stand up for him.

Don't get me wrong I think JK has a whole lot of character dev to do and sucks so bad in so many ways. But we need to understand where Dan is coming from. He's kind, sure. But he's far from dumb imo and his feelings are valid. He's just confused by JK's actions plus he sees him all the time and he's spending his days with him and being intimate with him (+he's handsome) so yeah.no wonder he'd have these conflicting feelings.
It's unfortunate that they're not warming up to each other in the same way or same rate.

We'll have to wait and see.

The bodyguard's story is sm more entertaining tho tbh I love how bad and messy this story is.
Ugh, wish they finally made Josh's story into a manhwa, I just know ppl would LOVE it.

Btw anybody knows what the name of the novel is for the firefighter's story is?

I read the fan translated novel and went really far into the story and couldn't finish it. It was so crazy.
During their first time, I believe he actually broke the guy's wrist in the novel and tho the manhwa makes him look wayyyy less terrible, it was so hard reading through their explicit scenes.

He abuses him over and over and R's him over and over, he even tears him at one point. Like there'll be hella blood.
This ML only gets worse and more obsessive and dangerous.

And the MC is generally attacked by crazy fans whenever he's not being assaulted by his partner.

Anyway, the art here iw beautiful but the ML does NOT get much better. I think becomes a little less violent cause he fears the MC leaving him or dying (basically doesn't want his fave pet gone). Other than that MC makes it clear that he hates sleeping with him EVERY SINGLE TIME, he's in pain and says no all the time. He even says he hates him and is staying cause he's scared of him. It just turns into full on Stockholm syndrom but with him being fully aware that this is dick and being too scared of leaving cause everybody he knows may end up getting killed. (Btw in the novel, I read he actually deca apitated and killed either one of two of the guys who he framed for attacking the actor that was bothering Inseob and I think two of those guys were brothers or sum)

Anyway, ML is a literal assasin. He spirals downhill as the story progresses and mind you we have no logical explanation for Inseob's stalking and obsession for the ML. There's no valid excuse for why he tried to "avenge" his mentally ill best friend. Like, to be fair, I don't see why any of that is ML's fault. They're both mentally not there but Inseob is waaaaay less dangerous than the ML. That guy is UNHINGED. Inseob took on way more than he could handle.

I feel like the second season came out years later and progressed through time kinda like its characters, how long has it been 5 years? The author/ artist matured in the meantime just like the main character and i loved seeing the visible improvements in both art style and storytelling. Season 2 felt like the making of a compelling argument for why S1 ended the way it did. Tho I kinda still feel like Subin and Hyeonwoo would be more compatible personality wise now that they’ve matured, I am left way less frustrated with Subin ending up with Jun. I liked to see how they tried to make it work in the last few panels but still think that them fighting sm is a sign that they’re not the greatest fit for each other. Even then, the ending still kinda makes sense, Subin chose the bf he currently likes and is used to. Tho I have to say, it feels like he enjoys being with men he has struggle filled relationships with. I think they lack chemistry as a couple but hey so long as the authors wants them to stick together and makes make sense then I’m not totally against it. All in all, this ending was more convincing though not really satisfying. Remarkable storytelling and art style, and gotta love Hyeonwoo for being a messy bih cause he sure ate that up. Ik he’s problematic but God is he more interesting and entertaining than Jun, plus I liked how he matured.
Anyway, great mahwa

That was so ew like wtf?
Anyway, the art is stunning as usual

Someone pls explain to me wtf is going in the raws?
Like wtf? Did the author just decide to throw in as much crazy storylines at the audience all at once?
And I wanna know whether Normie has gone for his childhood friend officially or if Minwoo still has a chance. Cause I will forever be team Minwoo, they got hella chemistry

Kim Dan is gonna be so fucked in the next chapter and not in the usual way. Poor kim dan, I hope he’ll be alright

This story feels pretty stale
It was nice at first then it just became kinda redundant and boring.

I also feel like the mc was made to look cuter and cuter throughout the story which is not so bad but I kinda preferred how he had a more masc look abt him at first.

It's gotten pretty boring for a while even their sex scenes are boring.

Everyone who supports TJ does so because he's hot and that's that. Cause aside from that, his personality doesn't give much.
Plus ngl his scenes with Ian are always top notch.

Jo is much more complex in how he thinks imo, he's smart and not overbearing. He's good at reading the room and breaking toxic cycles. I love him and am team Jo.

Ian leaves much to be desired, there's a lot of growing he needs to do and tbh I think that so far Jo is way too good for him.

We'll have to wait and see tho.

TheOldYaoiFan created a topic of Wet Sand

So most fans hate Jo but love TJ?

TJ is literally toxic and forceful. He only cares about getting what HE wants. Ian's mentally health has been going down the drain for the longest time and he's been suffering yet TJ wants to keep him in the same environment all because it makes it easier for him to reach him. He wants to control Ian so bad and manipulates him into staying all the time. Hell he won't even let him explore things in peace with Jo.

There's definitely a whole lot of manipulation and lack of consent between TJ and Ian. I feel like Ian loves TJ but not necessarily in a romantic way. He's been there with him since he was in the trenches and he cares for him sm he doesn't know how to tell him NO cause he feels indebted to him. Tho TJ keeps breaking his heart. They are just not compatible in any other way aside from sexually. I think they kinda just grew apart through time. Ian wanted change and TJ wants to keep it all the same.

Jo is cute, he's nice and smart. Ian is attracted to him but he's scared because TJ is a crazy mf who's obsessive and stalks Ian. Ian and Jo have a much healthier relationship and I hope they're end game, Ian has the right to want to live a healthier life and to choose a better partner for himself.

I don't like TJ at all, he's a stalker and gaslighter. Jo is definitely a green flag.

This manhwa is unnecessarily dramatic. It's so funny sometimes

They remind me of dry turkey, no chemistry, they feel forced af. Haeyoon is cool person tho, he’s chill and nice so I liked him but aside from that, this story was super cliché and boring.
