I have a genuine question... Does hyesung really love dojin? Or is it simply cuz he's stuck with him and cuz of the pheromones? Therefore their love is really an "illusion". I haven't read it but I've seen spoilers here and there so I really want to know before reading it so I can go in with the mindset of knowing and not hoping.

I'm not gonna even bother reading this. from the promo i got to know all i need to know. i absolutely HATE these type of stories. just from the way the manhwas plot is, i can already tell this was made by a fujoshi who sexualize gay man. why would you turn a gay men, straight? and if he is Bi, i have to say, what a crappy representation. when i read a BL i NEVER imagine myself with one of them or in between them. i acknowledge the fact that they're gay and move on, yes i find them hot cause they ARE. but never do i go thinking "i wish they were bi so they can be with me" or just to see how they would be with a female. NEVER! i just simply enjoy they're love life story. so i absolutely hate it when female authors make man/hwa/hua/ga like this. cause it always gives the feel of "He changed for the better" "He got something better at the end", like wtf and not only that we got enough straight stuff and not only that, gay people get enough shit for being gay for at the end to use something gay and turn it straight or make people think "see! you can still love a girl, if you find the right one" type of bullshit. so i really detest it and wish female authors would stop making these type of stories. the amount that i can name is so angering.

I bet this is what people think of us BL readers that we want to get with a gay men and turn them straight just for US. This is why so many people think we fetishize gay relationships as readers cuz of authors making sh*t like this. If they ended up together at the end. that's just the most unrealistic, saddest sh*t ever.

NOW this is fetishization. as a bl reader I have NEVER wished to get in between any of the gay relationships I have read soly based on the fact that i acknowledged that they're gay and that I enjoy the love content between the TWO of THEM. Just that. I never wish or think on how the gay character would be with a women cuz once again I acknowledged the fact that they're gay. Mangas with Fujoshi will ALWAYS bother me and anger me cuz why tf do you be turning a supposed gay character in the story to straight just for YOU. And yes, in the "story" he falls in "love" with her with time, but that's not the point, the point is that a women who is a Fujoshi actually took the time to write this fetish fantasy and make it into a book and so many people eat that sh*t. And cuz of that, so many people think us BL readers are like this. This is why at one point gay men were also thrown off by us women that read bl cuz they also thought this is how we think. I really wish mangas like this would stop being made cuz it's not good. If you don't understand my point just think of it the same way as a men wanting to be in between a lesbian relationship cuz they think it would be "HOT"

wait, wdym gay? the male characters are like obviously bi? anyways people in the past didn't have the same view of sexual orientation as we do.
I mean the fetishization of the gay relationships between the duke and the baron is weird but this is fictional. Same thing happens in "Kiss Him Not Me". But like how do I say this, in ancient sparta, I believe wifes would cut their hair short to appeal to their husbands since the men fucked each other while in battle.
"In Sparta [...] the cropping of the bride’s hair and transvestism likely aimed to transform her temporarily into an adolescent Spartan boy – a less threatening figure to the groom, who probably had made his own transition to adulthood via a close emotional and sexual relationship with an older male and was now in the position to sexually initiate other boys into Spartan society."

anyways societal norms be dammed. Also people keep on mentioning that the sex is non con because of the arranged marriage. Well wouldn't that like apply to most people in that world not just them? Don't read it if you don't like the setting.
Also you could argue that the sex is non con from the ML's perspective too, just society expects him to initiate it. They're gonna need an heir anyways.
Oh how pure the author is saving for their special moment so they're just air humping and giving oral...
