yeah it really sucked sigh

I don't know, Sys is kind of a bully. and yeas I didn't like it either

Not like we didn't know.. Sys is a sadistic dom who literally has an army of crossdressing assassins

I guess that's why people needs to learn what real role play or BDSM is . It's all about consent. I repeat CONCENT. In real life the SUBMISSIVE ARE THE ONE'S IN CONTROL. THEY'LL give the dominant one's the authority/concent /permission first, then they can continue their foreplay or things. That is how it is done. Because otherwise it's literally abuse to just force someone into submission.
I'm so tired of how all forms of media miss-represent the whole BDSM. What they're portraying is abuse and potential rape.

I never called it BDSM, buy... Secondly, while we can surely call it molesting, it was no rape. It was literally just a massage. When black Wolfgang refuses to yeild until the end, Sys withdraws pretty gracefully. He does a bit of aftercare as an apology but it's literally never portrayed as a BDSM relationship... Simply Sys being his usual asshole self.

Lastly, dom in this case refers to a dominant personality. Not everything has to be taken at face, some words have a lot of other normal meanings than porn-related, no matter what internet or ur dirty mind says.

You probably should learn how to specify your words then. We are literally were in a chapter where everything was pointing towards something sexual. And the way Sys was acting can very well indicate he is a Dom. And although it's not mutually exclusive, a person who has a dominant personality, tend to be a dom during sex. So you really should've been specific if you didn't wanted to be misunderstood and get so butt hurt about said misunderstanding.

I was simply trying to clear things out, since so many people tend to misunderstand BDSM due to the way it's being portraied.
But didn't realize you're a very young and immature person, who thinks sex=porn? Didn't realize that you can't digest actual sex-ed. Guess your pure mind can only handle Yaoi and fantasize over it. Stay pure child, but don't stay ignorent. And try to accept your mistake,when you make one, instead of jumping gun on others. Bye.

I'm pretty sure it's just plain old rape I wouldn't even be surprised if the doc rufied his drink like the sick bastard bitch boy he is...

I still hoped it didn't get that much twisted.. Guess I read that right after all... Well it was a good read but goodbye this Manga

it's only in the second story (the last two chapters for now) it's a side story that's being updated until season two starts

the main story is pretty good though there's no rape in it

oops nvm sorry I didn't see it was the same account if you want I can tell you when the second story is over so you don't have to read it

That would be really sweet of you

Yea I can’t get past how horrible the king was, and they still treat him nicely and I know they might get killed if they don’t but he’s still a horrible person but now he’s act less of an asshole. I still dislike him though and he has like a million daughters that are even apart of the story line

I mean...the father is not as much of the issue. He didn't know better and he started to change even though I had high hopes he would change globally toward women which sadly did not happen (once again)... but this damsel in distress type of behavior from grown up woman (from past life) its shameful

Yea but she doesn’t know how to use he powers and is one of the only girls who can, if she tried doin somthing about the women’s rights the men would retaliate and kill her and it took a while for her dad to even like her, it’s lije China. Once she learns how to use her powers she should go back to the temple place and control the giant robot or whatever that pyramid temple turns into

I get what you mean, but what can she even do? At the start of it. No powers, no nothing to fight back. She's honestly super clever for acting all innocent and wrapping everyone around her finger. Through this she was able to have them not kill her!

She acts weak so that they'll still like her. But to be honest she is weak she doesn't have any power to fight. If I were in a male dominate world and was powerless I'd be screaming so fucking much I'd be dead.

Even when weak, she raises her younger siblings and talks to her peers and brothers in a way that made them think about their actions and how they should be treating others. For example when she doesn't like them dragging her by the wrist she says ow making them think that they shouldn't be dragging her around.

You might think she has powers, but what can healing do in a physical combat. She'd be in a lot of pain if she ever fought back and would probably die.

In my opinion, I feel like she's a justified characters that has good intentions but is hopeless because she can't really do much. Even with her friends and family that are in love with her they have their limits and know that they can't do everything. But whenever she can, she helps others (like when she asked her older brother to free the slaves)

I am not saying that she has a lot of options how to act...what I am saying though that she was more daring and stronger when she was younger (as she was the only one to dare to act cute in front of her father or even her brothers) nowadays she is just waiting around literally like damsel in distress without even thinking how to escape some situations...dont tell me that if she wanted to get to some library where women cant get to she would just go "oh well guess thats not happening" no she would try to come up with a scheme on her own

I wouldnt even mind her not having powers but going with her mind against everyone she has such an advantage to have her memoirs from past life to achieve great things even without hokuspokus ... but I guess thats not happening

I still believe that she has such limited power to do anything really and it's true she really can't do much even with her memories. If she showed her knowledge I feel like it'd raise a bit too much suspicion. The only useful thing from her memories would be her knowledge of the Korean language.

I feel like I could only agree on the fact that the author is emphasizing her weaknesses too much. Like we get she's weak. But the plotline is shoving how she can't do anything down our throats. But we get it. She can't do anything. It's just getting repeated way too much.

What we need is a strong woman character to come in and show how magic isn't needed to defend yourself. (Like physical strength and techniques like taekwondo or karate) Since some people depend on magic too much as the only way for attacks or protection.

Although I understand the logic, I don't see the ending being about reality but rather being about morality. If we are talking about cruelty, misery and realistic world, this ending is actually quite the opposite of it.
The hero shows up and saves the day and get's his life restored. The bad guys die in the end. The good wins and the evil is defeated. Truth is that the author probably felt the pressure to kill Sangwoo instead of letting him live or even more, get away with it. People demand 'justice' to fix reality --- the author would probably be harassed if she had dared to give KS an ending where the murderer goes free and living and the detective dead. That would be actual more reflective of reality. We got a fairly cliche 'hero wins, bad guy dies'.

Except there is no good side and no hero in KS, they're all flawed and tainted. Your interpretation is a bit skewed, this was not about a serial killer getting caught and getting punished, this was about hurt, broken people whose life went off the tracks at some point and they never recovered. And for these types of people there is going back and no happy ending. Sangwoo was always going to die. KS was not about him as a serial killer, it was about his constant fight with his demons and ghosts of his past. And it was a fight he was never gonna win. This was about the tragedy in people's lives, it was not about the fight of good vs. evil. And yes, this ending mirrors reality, there have been and always will be Sangwoos, Bums and Seungbaes in the world with similar backstories. Your scenario is not entirely accurate because evil people don't always win, they do caught and they do get punished, you are much too cynical. Also, don't presume to know how the author intended to finish her work.

Exactly.

You are right but just a thing, Koogi said in an interview that KS is actually a story of a serial killer and Sangwoo represents her idea of a serial killer.

Yes, but the point I was trying to make is that the focus is not on his serial killings, but his tortured mind and what led him to it.

It's easy to say it was a cliche "hero wins, bad guy loses", but the truth is that Sangwoo was already a violent serial killer and on a downward self-destructive path when he imprisoned Bum. The reality is that there is no pulling up given that kind of situation. Bum might've had a chance, but Sangwoo purposely made sure to drag him down with him. It was a perfectly logical progression of events, and really no one won in the end (except the old lady who just wanted some peace and quiet).
