Many BL readers these days don't appreciate good storytelling. They prefer unrealistic interactions and overly dramatic characters, which is often toxic but sweet. This might be because many of them are young and see the world differently. They don't recognize good writing and are shallow in their preferences.

If you don't like smut and toxic content, don't read manhwa labeled as such, and then shit on it. That's why genres and tags exist. If you actually read the plot, you'll see it's not as bad as you're making it out to be. It might not be the best compared to what I've read but its one of the most decent one compared to new releases out today.

I already knew about the toxicity going in. That’s not the thing I was talking about. I’m saying what plot??? Bc literally it’s just gets job —> rape —> angry man who doesn’t apologize —> cycle repeats back to rape. If that’s what you’re calling “decent plot” boy you have NOT read enough stories lmaoooo

It appears there's a misunderstanding. While the work is tagged as rape, I interpret it differently, considering that Dan consented to the arrangement with the seme. Although I can't recall if all instances were consensual, that's not my main focus. I'm discussing the decency of the storyline within its genre, not comparing it to other works like "Under the Cherry Blossom." What's truly frustrating is how people, not necessarily you, harass the author and give it a low rating simply because they dislike the toxicity inherent in the genre.

I'm confident I've read enough. Over the years, I've delved into a variety of genres, including BL and novels, so I can discern what makes a good story. Regarding "Jinx," I wouldn't label it as the worst; it's decent. If you've truly gone through the entire comic, you'd recognize there's a depth to the characters' stories, except perhaps for the Seme, whose backstory may unfold in season 2. Again, I stress that within the context of the toxic genre, "Jinx" stands as a decent example. Comparing it to other genres would miss the point I'm making.

(The translations I received were a bit messy, so I skipped some of the gaming details and focused on the interactions between Jigu and Neuta.)
Neuta changed his gaming appearance to match his neighbor's, leading Jigu to play less and causing concern for Neuta.
Neuta bonded with Jigu's brother and niece, growing closer to them.
Jigu began to suspect that Neuta might be his gaming partner. This suspicion arose when Jigu messaged Neuta in Blue Hole, and Neuta replied saying he was unwell. Jigu promptly visited Neuta's apartment, knocking on his door to check on him.
Their relationship deepened as a result.

The story starts promisingly but quickly loses its appeal, becoming bland. I cant understand why the seme would fall for the weird Uke for such weak reasons. The Uke's behavior is that of a stalker, for heaven's sake! Who in their right mind would develop feelings for someone just because they say sweet things, especially when they're a stalker? The writers should have created a more compelling narrative to showcase the Uke's complexity to the Seme overtime, so he wouldn't just see him as this weird person. And seriously, the dildo? How did the Seme not find that strange, especially considering the circumstances of being alone with the Uke in his apartment? Despite these flaws, I must admit the art style was quite good.

?? uke wasn't necessarily a stalker I feel like ur dragging that, he fell for the uke as a friend at first bc he was the only one who "handle" or know the truth behind his actual personality mabye its been a while for the seme to hear those words from someone else so it touched him the seme is pretty sensitive, then he started falling for him lil by lil ,they r both flawed characters who find comfort within each other we will probably learn more of their backstorys but calling out the uke for being "weird" is literally the purpose of why he struggles with his emotions

?? uke wasn't necessarily a stalker I feel like ur dragging that, he fell for the uke as a friend at first bc he was the only one who "handle" or knew the truth behind his actual personality mabye its been a while for the seme to hear those words from someone so it touched him the seme is pretty sensitive if u look at it, then he started falling for him lil by lil the seme is more open and quick to act on his emotions then the uke ,they r both flawed characters who find comfort within each other we will probably learn more of their backstorys but calling out the uke for being "weird" is literally the purpose of why he struggles with his emotions also I nvr understood the dildo situation does no normal adult have that around ? Like I get in the open was silly but ??!

They've only hung out once, and their interactions have mostly been unpleasant. The Seme was even ready to kill him, for goodness' sake. Then, out of nowhere, after their first hangout, he quickly develops feelings for him? And to make matters worse, the Uke is essentially a stalker, which is a punishable offense.

Picture being stalked, then suddenly this strange stalker becomes your group mate, and you're forced to spend time with someone you've been trying to avoid. Then, out of the blue, this person starts creepily trying to read your emotions during vulnerable moments and sweet-talking you. Would you instantly fall in love with them? Let's even forget the stalking; let's say they're just a random person. Are you that susceptible to falling in love just because they said some basic things like "you're not a bad person"?

Even the Noona found it strange that the protagonist would leave something like that out in the open when expecting a visitor. If I had a straight friend coming over and we were alone, I'd feel incredibly embarrassed if they saw my dildo lying around, and the Seme even touched it, eww, that's so unnatural. In real life, touching something that goes into someone's butt is just not something people typically do.

No they've hung out alot yeah their interactions weren't the best but that's kinda the point is to built off development within the interactions especially bc the seme was finding it hard to open up to the uke bc he obv had a wall built up even after finding out the one person to find the truth about his personality was a "weirdo" like him, the uke stalking wasn't to the extreme as ur making it seem he did stare alot of front of the seme I think the uke was more pushy than anything which obv made the seme break ,bc he doesnt like ppl getting close to him he hates it ?? That's the point why he has this face smile 24/7 , lil by lil they started to talk way deeper tho I do agree it could've been dragged a lil longer but their feelings towards each other wasn't anything close to lazy writing or "moving on too quickly" theirs going to be more angst in their relationship it isn't going to be perfect and I do think the reason why the seme "fell so quickly" prob has to do w sum in his past but

Their initial meeting was pleasant but brief. However, the subsequent interactions primarily consisted of the Uke stalking the Seme. Are you suggesting that the Seme gradually falls in love with the Uke because of the stalking behavior? If so, that's poor writing. In reality, most people wouldn't fall in love with their stalker; they'd likely report it to the authorities.

???? that was the whole point of his character ???? dohu was following juheon in the first place because he also thought he'd be an interesting, dark character for his novel, but realized after a few conversations that he's just putting up a front because he believed his real self was unlovable. juheon's character is someone who just wanted to be told that he's still worthy of being loved even when imperfect and dohu was that person, that's why he fell so quickly.

Taejoo (protagonist ex) loves Yoon so much, He was so hurt when he thought Yoon won't be waking up. I'm glad Kwon became the light when Taejoo was completely in the dark but I wish Kwon would let go of Taejoo. I wish Kwon knows that clinging to Taejoo would just make him suffer. Yoon and Taejoo are perfect for each other they've been together since they were kids. They had a lot of memories growing up. I wish the author would flip the story and make Taejoo come back to Yoon's life. These are things that don't need to be too logical it's pretty obvious what they should do.

In my opinion (totally not invaliding yours!) I think Yoon and Tae shouldn’t get back together. They have been each other’s whole world for the majority of their lives. They have kept themselves in their own bubble and not allowed anyone else in. Especially on Yoon’s part. He was lost in the beginning of the story for this very reason. Tae at least had more social skills it seems, but Yoon had none. This breakup forced both of them to grow. Growth that they couldn’t accomplish while together, especially on Yoon’s part. Kwon pushed Yoon to not only better his career, but himself. Something I believe Tae not only couldn’t, but wouldn’t want too. If they were to get back together, one or both would get hurt in the long run and they would resent each other. Yoon would either give up the job he loves or go back into the field once he’s healed. Tae would probably get mad and give him an ultimatum since he wouldn’t want to go through that pain again. I do hope they can get back to being good friends, but their time as lovers have come to a close.

It's a fact that Yoon grew so much as a person when they broke up but for me if two people love each other so much why do they have to be separated. Yeah, people might get hurt in the process but it will just be detrimental to both Tae and Kwon. Isn't it great that they've depended on each other since they were young? Isn't it ok for them to keep themselves in a bubble where they feel like they only have each other? It's not like Tae had been a bad example to Yoon, If I'm not mistaken Tae would encourage Yoon to do whatever he wants, he's probably against Yoon pursuing Journalism because he wants to protect Yoon from danger and I think it's a normal reaction for a partner. I believe Tae might not understand what Yoon currently wants but I believe Tae can be a better person for Yoon in the future and I think being together for a very long time is a good thing. Kwon should find a person who will love him like how Tae loves Yoon a person who will risk everything for him.

In my opinion, being in a relationship means you will be at peace and in love with your partner. If your partner goes to a warzone of course your partner will worry a lot. Even if Yoon and the other guy became a couple I'm sure he will feel the same way, no one wants your partner to be in danger. In a relationship, you should give and take. Tae doesn't ask that much, he just wants Yoon to stay out of the warzone. My mom loves to help people even if it will affect her mentally and physically, my dad and I hate that about her because we couldn't afford to lose her if she keeps damaging herself.

I totally get where you’re coming from and agree with some of your points. Though, I personally do not find it healthy to be consumed by your partner and your partner alone. That’s why I like Kwon getting Yoon to come out of his shell and learn to speak for himself. They each had such a hard time being their own support because they were used to giving the other that weight to shoulder. There’s nothing wrong with relying on someone, but when you haven’t learned how to care for yourself first, you end up like them crashing hard into this new reality. If I remember correctly, Tae even says to himself that he doesn’t have want to resent Yoon. I feel like at some point in their relationship, Yoon would have to choose between his job and Tae. Kwon understands the risk. He has experienced it firsthand. He will worry, but he would never tell Yoon not to go. He will be his anchor waiting for him to come back. Tae and Yoon will always love each other, but it will never be at the level it was before. Both have been too hurt by the other to go back to how they were before the story started.

If Chunwoo really likes the redhead guy then tell him that he's in love with him, it's not a great look going around playing with other people's feelings. Why does he need to sleep with another person just to make sure they're straight or in love with him. This is the reason why I hate some good-looking people they take advantage of other peoples feeling and play like a god.
I can't with the person who said redemption sex. You guys are a menace. LMAO
