It has befitting ending and not sad.
i love a mangagoer that recommends things ty
I wanted more of yakuza older brother seme x younger brother uke story. That’s the only one I liked and read this manga for.
Me too, I reread them just for the brothers story
Art is really nice. Been waiting for good trans. Finally, officials are out. Now I can taste a lil then let it marinate.
It’s interesting but has incorrect/bad translation. I read it a couple of years ago on another site. But if it gets a good/accurate translation, I’d read it again. And actually, this deserves a good translation.
Noo I did the thumb down. Wonted up. Sorry. I agree. I didn't read it yet because I am waiting for better. :)
Younger one, Mathew, is the seme. Disappointed! I wish that black haired dude was the seme. Similar to Talk To Me Tenderly trope.
Cry me a river~~
Those who say they hated uke and that he deserved it, are young, immature, apathetic folks who, forget about child psychology, not even know the basic human psychology and lack empathy.
Children are vulnerable. Whether Those who have parents and especially those who have no one to rely on, no one to take care or protect them.
Uke, Minjoo, an abandoned child lived in orphanage. He’s a vulnerable child, who suffered bullying, beating, and sexual abuse daily in his childhood for years. For years! From his parent, in orphanage, in school…It’s the crucial age where children are developing cognition, personality etc. They’re learning about the world. And Minjoo had no one to teach him about right or wrong, no one to bring him up well, no one to protect him, and only adult monsters were around him that took advantage of this child, and bullies who gave him physical pain daily. This child was broken. Scars, traumas left in childhood are the one of the hardest to cure depending on the severity. And everyone cops with them differently.
And peeps expect of him to have healthy, righteous mind when this child lived in darkness all his life? How should he not feel resentment, hatred, jealousy etc, negative emotions? And this child, who was always given darkness, gave it back and did a grave mistake in his childhood while feeling such dark, negative emotions and hurt.
But he never gets forgiveness for his childhood mistake. Juvenile prison was better for him rather than what was done to him by his “savior”.
So, Instead, he gets another cruel punishment in the cruel revenge. An adult starts planning revenge on this broken child. He adopts him, fills his heart, manipulates him, gives him happiness to break him in the worst way. Again, he’s broken and by his most precious person—his savior, his hero—in a cruel way.
The adult chose revenge over forgiveness in the end. He let hatred win. Well, I hated him for that. I wanted Minjoo, at least one broken child, to be finally happy in whatever way. And the story ends.
People look at problems, but not the root of those problems. Those bullies and society that wrong those vulnerable children, are still free and roaming around.
I hope, with both protagonists’ friends testimonies and psychological screening from shrink, Minjoo is released and starts recovery from childhood and this new big trauma together with his friend/lover(forgot his name). He loves Minjoo much, he won’t leave him in despair for life.
Also, we also don’t know if the father really dies at the end since we don’t see any such confirmation. We don’t see him being taken to hospital as story ends before that. I think author deliberately ended it at that to leave it to readers imagination.
I think that most people expect a "perfect victim" just like shown in most stories. I mean isn't it easier to support a victim if they are only miserable and depressed whose waiting for their savior... lots of people don't like to accept the very negative affects that victims who has gone through so much trauma have psychologically that make them do so many terrible things.
I have seen in real life how people are so supportive of victims fighting against their abuser but the moment they do something terrible as a result of their trauma, they are like questioning the victim and saying things like "the abuser was right"
It's not about forgiving either. It's about understanding what lead them to do that and preventing it happening to another person.
Whenever I see characters like this I can't help but wonder if they do deserve to have such a miserable life till they die. I mean when does their pain ends? Don't they deserve happiness or someone to tell them what's wrong and how to come to the right path?
And I can't help but wonder what whould I have done if I was him. Maybe I wouldn't have gone as far as he went, or I could have been worse. I'll never know becouse I have never gone through what he went through. It's easier to tell "I whould never do that" when we are just watching from the sidelines but if we are in the actual situation it's a whole different story
I think you're the child here complaining about what someone else has gone through. Pain is intrinsic to everyone, you can't measure someone else's pain. No one here has the right to judge anyone's choices, you just have to accept them. Do you know what it's like to lose a child? Do you know what it's like to know that another child killed your child because he didn't feel loved enough by his parents? You judge the father but you defend Minjae, stop believing that just because you had a difficult childhood, it justifies everything. Yes, someone should have put him in therapy, but it wasn't eunsung's father's obligation, the child he killed, to do so. So don't come here pointing fingers at people, we're talking about being able to put ourselves in other people's shoes to see if we would have acted differently, Minjae chose to kill, the father chose revenge, and no one can claim that or point fingers. When you do wrong, you have to accept what comes of it. If he had accepted his friend into his life, his happiness might have existed, but you can't ask a father who lost his beloved son to kill him. It's you, the kid with a shitty mentality in this story, come and talk when someone has killed a person you love more than anything else in the world and we'll see if you'll succeed in (yes, he killed him, he could have taken him out of the gymnastics, but he'd just deliberately pushed him out).
Here both of them made choices, the only ones who feel sorry for each other are the best friend and the orphaned student who came to beg Minjae for help. Stop putting words in people's mouths, stop calling others childish because they don't have the same opinion as you, it just shows that you're the child and nothing more.
It's sad to read a story without understanding it one bite, how pitiful of you.
