I saw korean readers boycott this one because it deeply touches on misogynistic views and took inspiration from the nth room case

The author really got that money from the bl version of sadistic beauty despite not putting much effort in it and said fuck it we ball and created a new one knowing people will still eat it up so long as it's bl

Okay, so Reverse Thinking has been a hot topic on Korean bltwt because of some rumors that it’s based on the nth room crimes, that the story involves the sexual abuse of women, illegal filming, incest, and bestiality. People have been calling for a boycott and such. So I spoke with a Korean friend of mine who read the novel to verify how true these things are, and I want to share what I found out: So first of all, there is no violence against women. Or at least none shown onscreen. There is no incest or bestiality (the latter of which I’m not even sure is allowed on Bomtoon). There is however, significant violence and illegal filming perpetrated against the mc. It’s a very cut and dry blackmail/revenge story. Albeit an extremely hardcore one. There are two gang rape scenes and imprisonment. I also want to say it is COMPLETELY understandable to be weirded out or distressed by these themes and not want to touch the story, however I wanted to make this post because there’s a lot of misinformation surrounding it. At it’s core, this is just a story about violent things happening to dudes. The reason I believe it’s important to make this distinction is because while many Korean bl fans have a high tolerance for problematic themes such as abuse and rape, they aren’t fine with seeing it happen to women. The reason is because Korea is obviously a pretty misogynistic country, so Korean bl fans treat bl as a form of escapist fiction where women can’t be hurt. (Not saying I agree with this mentality) But anyways, I hope this post gives a little insight and encourages you to think about the story from other perspectives regardless of whether or not you want to read it.

Vague spoilers below for anyone interested:

For anyone who’s read Sono Kuchibiru ni Yoru no Tsuyu, the plot is very similar except with less public transit.

Is Edward some p diddy reference

He should dive in that ass instead of the pool .

MY GOD THAT LAST PANEL GOT ME GAGGED

And it definitely gagged ML too like DAMN

the small waist and the ARCH?? Ass in those booty swim shorts with cheeks showing omg, his body is tea
And the art is immaculate.

I need them to FUCK!! NOW!!! GET HIM PREGNANT!!

I really love Bawoo and Hoon and they are so pretty. I thank someone who recommend this to me may you have a good life.

no Rawon, he wants you to eat the rich

And the twins will tease him how much he cried because he doesn't want to go home. And see that he kept the bear until it looks old and tattered

this felt so uncomfortable to read because the characters were actually acting like real people ☠ i have come to realise i need a level of unrealistic romanticism to fully enjoy the escapism, but it was a decent enough story otherwise.

yall are killing me in the comments out here being all "bro he's a minor... source: i made that shit up :3"

the side couple is xooo coteee

Girl, for your own safety, don't.

need the vasectomy to fail and get that man PREGNANT

This is really good, the author completelly understood what its like to be in an abusive relationship, it starts by them taking little pieces of you, and then little pieces turn into big ones, and you don't know who you are anymore because your life is now all about his life. And she's an orfan, that's even more difficult. I'm glad the MC is also a bit crazy, she's gonna fuck that guy up!

Of the many possible ways the two could meet again, I hope it's not Dan going back to Jaeshit after some news. Although he has some good memories of being his therapist, the amount of mistreatment and injustice he suffered shouldn't be easily forgotten.
Now that probably his grandma is dead, or will soon be, he'll have nothing more to lose... I just hope he learns to value himself
If it's been a month Dan will probably send him money for his debt. I guess that'll be the start of the chasing arc

The translation makes reading and understanding plot difficult
But overall, it looks pretty good!!

The nerve on this guy
