It’s a ridiculous premise but bro the pacing is all over the place. Things keep happening randomly, scenes keep jumping around and you have to make sense of it… it’s not even stupid gooner smut (that I read because of the beautiful cover) but shoddy writing with limited smut aaaaa
I’m genuinely confused as to how the pro esports player gilma has time to be flirting as the simp guild master in an mmorpg with his crush isn’t gaming that much everyday exhausting (I used to follow irl competitive lol players and their practice schedules are crazy).
I am grateful to translators. I just wanted to ask why they translate it as ‘I am a gay’ as opposed to ‘I am gay’. Though the kr sentence structure may include ‘a’ the later reads better. Whenever I read ‘I am a gay’ it feels bad like the speaker/character hate themselves for being gay.
Edit: only brought this up because it’s the second or third time today that I’ve read ‘I am a gay’ which is… weird.
He’s going to tell dajeong that Hanuel talked mad shit about him behind his back and that he’s not someone dajeong should be close to. Atleast dajeong is a good communicator so he’ll bring it up with hanuel when they’re alone and hanuel will embarrassingly tell him everything and they’ll kiss and makeup lol.
Falling for your situationship/ kind-of-girlfriend’s brother is CRAZY WORK I honestly like them together but this kinda stuff really messes up sibling relationships damn. Bro is so caught up in his own head he’s telling his girlfriend’s best friend about it. She may be a friend by association to you bro but her loyalty lies first with her best friend. Why would you do that??
Seriously I’ve reread them so many times past life baby kihoon and yeon are so cute in terms of design and so clearly enamoured each other since they first met it’s like pure happiness being injected straight into my veins it’s so cute I love the random goofy drawings soop2rang does too I love this HOWEVER I do my best to skip past all the ominous stuff because I know it’s coming anyway. Let me just see this dynamic without tragedy please.
This is so cute and so dreadful a child wanted to be with his beloved forever and now they’re doomed by destiny aaaaaaa the fact that they always stuck together, kihoon teased yeon about tying the thread, they hugged and stuck close together and when the stranger (errant prince) came kihoon’s instinct was to shield yeon…. What da hell I want to cry at how much they’re loved each other, long before even understanding the depth of that emotion. The fact that this is so sweet but headed towards certain doom is frying my brain.
It’s clear the disgusting freak loser wants to train/groom kihoon into being his loyal attack dog and yeon will end up dying because of it. Fuck.
The style wasn’t to my taste so it took me long to get around to reading this but this is just perfect. Their chemistry is great, even the problematic nature of entertainer/fan dynamic is addressed because on realising it’s really Taegyu, Cheongrok doesn’t try to throw himself at taegyu, rather run away from him. He really does things for taegyu’s sake in a way that isn’t self sacrificing but protective.
Also I’m so sure Yoon Cheongrok would love the shit out of hua cheng if he ever read tgcf he’d think hua cheng is just like him fr fr he would probably read the ‘your highness I understand your everything’ monologue and think about taegyu the whole time, because in the end he really does think of taegyu that way. Also his pouting in the last chapter was so cute lmaooo.
I know Kaji and Jaehyuk from can’t think straight (ultimate fuckass loser boy whores turned lover boy simps) would approve of each other.
I began rereading and in the second chapter when the string first shows up kihoon jokingly says ‘You sure you didn’t tie this to me while I was sleeping? You naughty boy, you!’ which knowing their backstory and how the string between them ‘began’/ first appeared was so sick and twisted (based and cool) of the creator to write.
Edit: in chapter 6 yeon pictures his (not really) unrequited love as a nobleman of old falling for a commoner (though kihoon here is not depicted as a general/retainer but as a woodcutter? Idk he has an axe). Soop2rang was having too much fun with this lmao.
Edit 2: in chapter 12-13, yeon sees his past self’s painting and instructions on how to connect the string by force through the boulder.
Anyway, very familiar with tropes so this is what I think is happening/ will happen, even though it is purely conjecture. I am not making excuses for woosang, I’m just listing out what I think will/is happening:
1. Like Soohan who is lying about being someone who has had sponsors, woosang is also lying by pretending he is straight and that soohan is just a random indulgence, and that he eventually wants a ‘stable family’. He’s definitely not straight and has been into soohan since he was in school. Reason: their classmate mentions in chapter 9 that woosang looks at Soohan the same way he used to in school.. likely with longing. (Soohan cuts his classmate off before he can finish his sentence). Also it’s much easier to pretend to be nonchalant about finally hooking up with your HS crush than dump the heaviness of guilt and longing you’ve felt towards them all at once, coming clean to try and have an honest chance with them. Even though woosang is sponsoring soohan, he mistakenly calls it dating.
2. The rumours didn’t begin of woosang’s own volition. Things escalated either because it was a misunderstanding or someone pinned the blame of outing soohan on him. Reason: classmate states that it was unlike woosang to spread rumours.
3. He most likely knew what soohan actually said at the reunion, but used similar sounding phrases to get in contact with soohan again. He definitely knows that they can’t get close normally bc they had bad shared history, so he used an outlandish excuse. (This one is a little unlikely).
Overall, other reasons I think this is: woosang is not the dominant/ abusive top with how he’s written: sure he’s jealous, but he consistently goes along with how soohan treats him, gives into his demands, apologises when he wrongs soohan, wants to take care of him and (most obviously) he’s not homophobic bc he’s a little too excited to be on, in or with soohan anyway possible. This means it’s probably a long time desire being realised by him. The way he’s written is obviously a ‘romantic’ archetype as opposed to a ‘asshole turned remorseful’ archetype.
My reaction when the main characters are and always have been madly in love in every reincarnation but cursed eternally by destiny : ༼;´༎ o ༎༽
The ominous threat of misfortune being headed their way doesn’t concern me because I can’t read. I am not worried (I am. stay the fuck away from these littol lovebirds misfortunes. Stay away!!!).
(This isn’t about the story but the name I don’t know what the story is like)
Maybe I’m too woke but naming your story along the lines of a system made to help locate missing kids quickly, with the girl who it is named after (amber) having never been found is crazy work. Idk if it’s cracking me up or putting me off lol.
(I am not American I just know what amber alerts are).
The fact that he took up a job because his parents abandoned him but he also has college and 5 (five!!) puppies to raise in the countryside… he’s the doggy dad that stepped up.
The way he dehumanizes his own brother due to his secondary gender needs to be studied. What a fucking asshole. Sends a letter of divorce to his now husband so he can once again use Ilya as a bargaining buck and peace maker, selling him like cattle, genuinely what a fucking piece of shit.
Ilya’s dad 100% sent Ilya to khalid’s kingdom bc he knew the kingdom views omegas as saints and miracles. He wanted a better life for his son instead of being treated like cattle. What a way to spit on your father’s work. Fuckass asswipe.
First: new readers this story is absolutely worth reading even though jaehyuk is an absolute dick bag for the first 15 chapters his personal character development and their development as a couple is amazing. My criticism is a nitpick. Stop reading this comment and read the manhwa.
Anyway, my only complaint is that as the story goes on jaehyuk becomes more handsome and gets good character development but unfortunately garam starts looking a lot more… babified. Like he looks younger, his body is even smaller (mass wise, if you compare chapter 1-5 to the last few chapters it’s jarring). I wish we could keep the garam character design of old and have the best parts of the story development too. I know over time art styles develop and solidify but garam’s character design rn feel like a downgrade from what it initially was.
Haseong clocked Mr. Homotron2000 and developed a crush I knew it was dajeong he was crushing on. Haneul is the kinda guy who won’t be able to turn down helping haseong get with his own boyfriend until nana or dajeong themselves realize what’s happening and then knock some sense into him.
