The problem is not him sleeping around, he can do that they are not officially together. The problem is that now, he is aware of Hyesung and instead of accepting or rejecting him, he is actively doing something that is aware will hurt him FOR A SECOND TIME. I'm not gonna excuse his behaviour, him being alone was entirely his doing.

    Exactly!! How can he call himself seme's friend, when he treats him so badly, then and now! If this is how his 'love' looks like, he just can leave it to himself, seme deserves someone waaay better! Uke even doesn't see a problem with sleeping with that hyung guy in a future, gosh!! At least that hyung has a few more cells brain than uke!

I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble but whether you read the prequel or not, it's still canon and, spoiler alert, he is still a rapey piece of shit who sexually abused someone for years with the threat that they're gonna out them to their only remaining family member and laughed in their face when said family member died.

It's sad how shallow people's view of these characters are. They can literally be described as :
Kwon = Bad
Taejoo = Bad
Yoon = Good
With absolutely no effort to understand them as individuals. Just because someone hurt your favourite character doesn't make them bad and if they've made mistakes in the past that doesn't make their feelings now any less valid. Yoon is not without fault either. Kwon got trauma so big from his friend dying that he had trouble connecting with his wife, which eventually led to them divorcing. Kwon is a dick a lot of the time, but everyone's pretending that his struggle isn't just as valid as Yoon's. Taejoo acted horribly when Yoon first came back, but he was starting to just get his life back together. He was afraid of those same emotions that dictated his life for almost 5 years coming back, because he thought that the life he had worked so hard to built, after coming to terms with Yoon's disappearance, would crumble. Yoon needed emotional support and despite the rules Kwon set constantly used him for that reason. It's not unreasonable for someone to not be in a mental state to handle someone else's trauma, especially when they haven't even gotten over their own.

    Also, this is not me saying everything they've done should be excused, but we should also try to understand what led to them acting a certain way.

    I agree, at the moment the only shit person is Kwon coz of the way he is speaking to Yoon. I never really hated the ex boyfriend coz it wasn't his fault and anyone in his shoes would probably do the same. it took a lot of time for him to forget Yoon and he was trying to be loyal to the red haired bitch. I am sure that the red haired hid the info from Taejoo about Yoon and just wanted to get together with him. So the only character I hate is the red haired guy who was also acting really childish

    Kritterr0 July 7, 2021 11:02 pm

    You've described them very well. That's why I can't blame any of the characters for their actions. Wrong is still wrong but they're just looking for a way to cope. Sad (╯︵╰,)

    The way he expresses himself is incredibly tactless, but he is not a bad person, he just doesn't know how to handle his own feelings and constantly takes it out on Yoon. The new boyfriend is a horrible person. I saw people calling Kwon manipulative which..he isn't, he is just emotionally challenged. The only truly manipulative one is the new boyfriend.

    i kind of get what ur saying and where you’re coming from, however!! i don’t believe that having traumas are excuses to be rude and unfair to anyone. sure, kwon has had his fair share of problems in the past and has not worked them up until now, but being so blatantly rude and ignorant is awful. yoon and kwon started a platonic relationship that only involes (involved) sex but no one can say that it was platonic in its last stages, both yoon and kwon searched for more than only sleeping with each other which makes yoon‘s situation even more pitiful. when he realised that he genuinely had feelings, kwon comes with this whole wife story and makes yoon think that he was just his play toy, his lil substitute. yoon is thank god clever enough to distance himself but now kwon comes and interrogates him on why he’s distancing himself while being super rude ???? kwon should really try to sort out his thoughts and get his sht together… sorry for the long text, i just had to get this out :D

    Yeh I wouldn't call him manipulative. I can't wait for the character development . But tbh right now they need to be apart to realise eveything and they both need time alone

    That was very insensitive of him and he could have handled the situation way better. Especially the last line was really not necessary knowing what Yoon has been through and how much he suffered.

    This still feels kind of a one sided view. Yoon cut Kwon off right after Kwon told him not to avoid him, that he can tell him anything and he'll tell him if something is too much. He for the first time made the effort and right. He brought his wife for business not pleasure, we know that he wanted his wife out of there as soon as possible and even though Yoon doesn't, he could have asked. The wife thing didn't really make Yoon misunderstand, the point of that scene was to make Yoon completely understand his own feelings, from the displeasure he got from seeing Kwon with someone else.

    I'll agree that Kwon is rude though, but because someone's rude doesn't mean they're a bad person.

    The last line was unnecessary, but I can also KINDA see why he is gotten hurt. He probably felt like Yoon was choosing Taejoo over him when he told him to go away.

    Finally! Someone who knows how to appreciate how well written the story and characters are. I mean, I'm glad that this story is getting a lot attention but a lot of readers here don't even make an effort. They think everything is black and white, and humans are as 2 dimensional as just being good and being bad. I was getting kinda triggered reading some of the comments so I'm glad I came across yours. I'm never gonna read comments again after this. This chapter breaking my heart should have been enough lmao.

    They are some of the most, if not the most well developed characters I've read so far. They actually feel like people, most bl I've read so far have three personalities the playboy, the psycho and the bottom (shouldn't be a personality, but we can all name at least 10 characters, off the top of our heads, whose whole character is being a bottom). I think that's what makes this story so painful, the fact that you cannot point the finger at a single person and go "THEY DID IT! IT'S THEIR FAULT!!1!" It's just life and it sometimes sucks.

    They are. I've read some well-written characters here and there but another set that I can think of immediately are the ones from Love or Hate. That story frustrated me so much, not because it was bad, but because the characters were so complex, the story became more complicated than necessary, just like real life lol. I was so emotionally invested to that story because of how good it was written. Thank god for authors like these that bless us with their immense talent for writing. Anyway, I hope we get more stories and characters like these and I hope fellow readers would also take the time to look past just their favorite characters' struggles and stop hating on the more realistically written characters off the bat as if they'd do better themselves if they're put on the same situation irl.

It'sNotJustABoulder July 5, 2021 1:52 pm

The fact that rape in Yaoi is always taken so lightly, as if a gang rape wouldn't affect them as much psychologically. Why? Because they are men? They always have the most lukewarm reaction and they let them go with just a slap on the wrist. Pathetic.

It'sNotJustABoulder July 5, 2021 2:47 am

"No matter how awful you treat me, I could never hate you." They had a name for that! It's on the tip of my tongue...was it Prague something something...no that doesn't sound right...Paris disease? No, that doesn't sound right either....Oh, yeah! It was called MF STOCKHOLM SYNDROME! If you found this romantic, stop it. Get some help.
