actually ahjussy has delusions due to the accident when he save mc from the fire & other traumas but he manage to be mc's guardian and took responsibility of him while he still can. As mc's grows up ahjussy's mental illness is getting worst day by day, also even though he serve as mc's guardian it was not legally registered, so he had some difficulty in school his only friend is the girl in the story and his foster 'family' in the current timeline of the manhwa was actually his bully's parents, even though he is smart he always get in trouble for defending himself as a result his scholarship (sponsorship?) was revoked.
Mc falls in love like a dog to ahjussy so, after high school he began working different part time jobs (he can't go to college because they don't have money and also cuz of his school record) for him to earn money so he can take ahjussy to a professional. They got into a relationship but it was not easy because in ahjussy's delusions the current events on the manhwa is what's happening, even though in reality mc doesn't do anything bad to him he think of him as evil that rapes, abuse, and confined him in short he sometimes cannot distinguish reality from his delusions. It's very sad because he ran away many times from mc and most of it him and mc got in trouble + the poverty cuz mc's mother has a huge debt and his aunt won't help, she even blame mc for her sister's death . The story is very tragic and heartbreaking, especially whenever ahjussy has episodes . There is a scene when ahjussy's trying to defend himself from the heesu in his delusions and he actually stab the real heesu, after almost minutes when he came back to reality the real mc almost die while begging him to comeback (to reality) thankfully ahjussy cameback and brought him to the hospital but while mc was being treated he was thinking of ending himself, he was in the fucking rooftop and was contemplating to jump in CHRISTMAS!! yesss the same Christmas scene on earlier chapters so fucking tragic but I actually lie and made this all up.
First its okay to dislikes the characters because of their actions, trauma doesn't justify their bad behaviors BUT I think it still relates (somehow) on the shits they do in the future, THIS IS THE REASON WHY WE FUCKING NEED TO TAKE CARE AND LOVE OUR CHILDREN SO THEY WON'T GROW UP AS A FUCKING ASSHOLE OR CRIMINAL IN THE FUTURE AND WHY MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.Behavior can be resulted from genetics and environment.
I like how the author write this, the r scene wasn't romanticized I was at the edge of my sit (or bed lol).
I also understand why ahjussy (forgot his name) was bad with communication with children or teens (though he's already a prosecutor his communication skills should somehow been improve, train, or something) because he doesn't have parents (as far as I remember), it's really hard to grow up without role model or someone (an adult specifically) to thought you on how things should work.
I also understand why the mc (I also forgot his name) behaves that way, he grow up without love, care, emotional and physical support from a parents or adult that supposed to take care of him. it was implied that almost everybody around him treated him like shit. He has abandonment issue, trust issue, attachment issue, etc. It was mentioned that his therapy was discontinued because of his shity foster parents, ahjussy should've have given attention on this details like bro you literally work as a prosecutor, you also don't lack money you should have know better (or maybe because of the plot LMAO). This is the only part I don't understand, mc literally has a lot of suicide attempts and ahjussy as an adult and professional didn't even think about his mental health? Didn't question the mc's situation on the foster parents house? His behaviors?
Nevertheless, I'm not condoning mc's crimes (arson, [but the shitty foster family deserve it lol], attempts of sexual assault, and rape) earlier I said trauma contributes to an individual's behavior, and their way of thinking, and decision making BUT IT DOESN'T JUSTIFY THEIR CRIMES AND BAD BEHAVIOR TOWARDS OTHER PEOPLE, ANIMALS, PLANTS, THINGS, WHATEVER.
Overall, as of now I like how the story is going it doesn't focus on smut (PLEASE LET IT STAY THAT WAY) like, I know this is an adult BL but please, I hope the author would focus more on the plot and storyline instead of smut, like okay if they want to write smut BUT PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT EVERY CHAPTER.
I love the artsyle thou!
I was on board until
''I also understand why ahjussy (forgot his name) was bad with communication with children or teens (though he's already a prosecutor his communication skills should somehow been improve, train, or something) because he doesn't have parents (as far as I remember), it's really hard to grow up without role model or someone (an adult specifically) to thought you on how things should work.''
I can understand that he might not be the best communicator out there but he seems to talk with people fine. He's unnecessarily hiding stuff from MC for no reason at all. He doesn't even bother to give a basic explanation to why he was late. He's always so secretive and sinister to the point of MC pulling some over the top shit again to get a basic human response from him.
I didn't have parents growing up either but I know that I should normally answer to people when they ask me questions like ''where were you, are you okay? why didn't you answer my calls''
At this point, instead of characters acting normally, the author seems to complicate stuff for no reason than to stretch the chapters.
I'm sure that the uke has basic communication skills to explain why he was late. He doesn't need to tell his entire life story, but he should've at least said that he was busy or was working on a case and broke his phone.
He didn't? he tried to brush it off again for no reason like MC is a dog who doesn't deserve a normal human response. He only tried to explain himself kinda was after MC pulled some shit again for sympathy. Can you imagine having to attempt suicide every time you want a normal human response from someone? it doesn't even require a 1000 word essay, a basic explanation was enough.
''Hey I was worried why you were late, you didn't even respond to my calls, are you okay?''
''shut the fuck up bitch go away''
''I'll kill myself if you don't respond''
''traffic''
That’s called manipulation lol dude clearly doesn’t behave like this with anyone else except for the MC. Sure MC could be more expressive but he doesn’t owe the kid anything. I don’t have to imagine attempting suicide if I don’t get a response from someone…because you shouldn’t be doing that. Obviously the kid has mental health issues and serious attachment issues.
@my reply above. Also I hope you don’t carry those same thoughts into real life cause that is dangerous. NO ONE should be threatening to kill themselves to warrant a response from another person. You know when someone in a relationship threatens to do suicide if their partner leaves them? Yea that’s manipulation and the partner needs to LEAVE the mf relationship asap.
Hee soo here needs actual professional help, which of course we know that’s not gonna happen.
1.'' he doesn't owe him anything'' I don't owe food to a starving man but I'll do it anyways because it's a BASIC human response. Since you find the uke right, why don't you stop replying to me? you don't owe me a response or anything right? it's almost like people communicate or something.
The MC literally watched his mom burn to death in front of him and got stuck in an abusive home for years where he wasn't taken seriously at all. He finally meets a person who he can actually talk to and his only response is ''shut the fuck up bitch, go away'' to even the smallest, simplest questions.
''Hey where were you I was worried''
''shut the fuck up bitch''
Uke wouldn't owe MC an explanation IF HE DIDN'T TRY TO TAKE CARE OF HIM.
I'll put it in simpler terms for you, I adopt a dog, I don't feed the dog, I kick the dog when it comes asking for food.
The way you write is so dramatic and cringe I barely managed to read it. Maybe you shouldn't call people dangerous psychos because they disagree with you on a fictional book with questionable writing.
I know how to work like a basic human, you're the one who thinks a basic response to a question is the biggest task in the world. Tho well, even when you're defending the uke, you're still responding to me despite not owing me a response so yeah.
people are different from each other even if they experience same things, how they deal with things or with trauma will not always be the same.
Also that's why I'm wondering, (maybe I forgot to put it on my essay ) he's already a professional he should handle things like that much better but he failed, maybe there is more on the backstory and he's cooking some shit, or he's just an asshole to mc, or his sick in the head and need professional help cuz he seems like he can't handle teens and children, or maybe you are right, maybe the author is just writing unnecessary shit for the plott idk
YES QUEEN PREACH. The uke is supposed to be a ''professional smartass'' but can't even properly answer a question asked by a traumatized fucked up child who committed arson.
Like what does he think it's gonna happen? the fucked up child will go ''understandable, have a nice day'' and sit on a chair like an accessory until uke needs him for something.
And he never understands that what he's doing is wrong either, he watched MC attempt suicide like billion times and he still has that ''I have no idea where I am'' looking ass expression.
You're right, uke's attitude towards the mc also frustrates me but I don't expect too much on them anymore or for them to have a healthy relationship cuz of the first chapter. Now what I'm curious about is how the author will make this work, cuz I'm currently reading cnovel with dog blood drama and shiz, the author is very creative on making the readers and his characters suffer that you'll start to think that the ending will be tragic but at the same time they also find a way to make the uke and seme's relationship work???
I wonder how this story and characters will end up and what is the attack of the author on this kind of tropes, I hope it will be good amd enjoyable cuz I really like the artstyle.
You forgot the dude literally almost raped/sexually harassed this man?? And you’re telling me you know how to work like a basic human. Ain’t no one responding to this rapist bitch afterwards lol esp after taking him in. And I don’t think you understand what it means to not owe someone anything. Yea I don’t owe you a response, but I am responding cus I want to. If I didn’t then I wouldn’t have…???
Didn’t call you a dangerous psycho, but I said those thoughts of yours are dangerous as in wild. And if you think like that about a fictional story, some parts got to stick with you in irl too but whatever. But seeing how many people agree that the uke here is to blame for mainly everything, I am surprised lol.
You made it sound like it’s justifiable for the seme to have done the things he’s done aka coercion, suicide threat, sexual assault, damaging his clothes and shit JUST because the uke isn’t giving him the attention he wants?? Sure let’s say the uke is an asshole for not ‘responding to him’, has communication issues, isn’t acting like a ‘basic human’, yadadada. As if THAT warrants him to receive those actions done by the seme. Cus you know assault and manipulation is also acting like a basic human.
You’re making it sound like IM TRIPPING for the defending the uke which is so funny lmao. Idrc about ‘defending’ him, just saying my thoughts.
‘Can you imagine having to attempt suicide every time you want a normal human response from someone’ - this was the line that made me reply to you. Maybe reread what you wrote and reevaluate? Just to clarify he doesn’t want a response from any random person, just the uke. He has an unhealthy obsession. Can you imagine being threatened to follow someone’s demands or else they attempt suicide?
I relate to real life cus that’s just easiest way to explain and understand things imo, ofc in like theoretical/hypothetical situations. Obviously this manga is a fictional story, but shit like this actually happens irl too. But yea too cringy right. Read my replies if you want or don’t, you don’t owe me anything:)
I don’t think uke is a saint, he seems to be hiding sus stuff anyways. Buttt putting his dismissive behavior on par with whatever that seme be doing rn, issa no from me. Idk maybe the authors writing could be better, but Idc about that, I’m arguing with you/y’all’s on your judgement of the uke here. A smartass could be an asshole, or socially challenged lol @whoever mentioned this above
I don't blame for not understanding a single thing I've told you. Just like the uke, you're stretching nothing burger of a drama. I would really want to respond to you about how you're literally conflicting every single line you wrote and can't even remember what you were supporting but I won't gain anything from it. Some people are just meant to create arguments without even know what they're defending.
You literally said uke deserved everything that happened to him, and then said he doesn’t deserve rape/assault but other consequences in one of your many topics. talk about contradictorycause not getting a response from someone means the end of the world. Apathetic, bad communicators don’t exist and they deserve to suffer consequences because of it. Got it. I’m sorry for ‘defending’ a terrible, world destroyer asshole of an uke.
There’s a reason why I’ve only replied to you out of everyone
PLEASE NOT THE LOVE TRIANGLE SHIT I'm tired of reading love triangle trope in bls like I'm okay if the story become angsty (where the horse guy will beg for mercy while crying and hugging Dan's thighs) but please no love triangle plss
im not gonna lie, i wouldn't mind it for this...its a quickee chance of getting our main character to stop being so rough or the other guy finding someone better maybe?? but i sorta don't think thats whats happening here (and yes i can never remember the main characters names even if my life depended on it)
Idk I'm just tired of bl with love triangle tropes because they often prolong the story without absolutely no reason and the mc will always end up with the toxic male lead so, what's the point? Just make up something uncliché shit and make the story unique and actually interesting and maybe focus on writing characterization lol
I can only remember Dan's name cuz its so simple
I'm holding on to the author's statement about this being happy ending and there's side stories. So I'm kinda chill here. I love the art.
Mc's so handsome and pretty + Kwon is one of the chilliest seme I have ever read, he's not abusive (thou he force himself on mc in that one chapter, I think it's considered rape. Mc' s under the influence of drugs and he told him to stop so many times) and he's not an asshole that much lol
Side note: I thought those bastards are going to be side couple lmao but nah I hope they got what they deserve
