Can someone point me to where Gowun’s dad/ tragic backstory was explained, because I have 0 idea what they’re talking about
ch 85
(๑•ㅂ•)و✧
I don't remember the chapter but it's when she was searching for info in the library I believe
ch 85 ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
Axel’s out here tryna change the rating of this story lmaoooo
And I am praying that he is successful. For him and my sanity
It’s pretty disingenuous for Claude to tell Yulan it’s up to Violet to pick who she wants. As if Claude isn’t the most eligible bachelor in the nation, as if his father isn’t the highest authority in the land, as if Yulan isn’t an illegitimate child without position or background.
Even if Violet WANTED to pick Yulan, she might not be allowed to. And that’s not necessarily Claude’s fault, but he should at least be honest with himself that the playing field is NOT even and he’s got way more practical advantages than anybody else.
What she did to Metatron was bad. There’s no denying that, even if she said she was trying to save his “life”.
However, she had other reasons for doing it too. Remember, her sperm donor was going to toss her out like trash, and she created the weapons to please him and help win the war. To her, making Metatron into a soul weapon killed two birds with one stone: he continues to exist and she gets to live another day.
I’m not saying she’s in the right or a good person; just trying to bring her original perspective back into play. She lived in a terrible, toxic environment where she had no control over anything. Making weapons was the only thing she was probably even allowed to do.
It’s actually so attractive how committed Naos is to cleaning her up. He actually wants her to be comfortable, on top of it just being practical and hygenic.
Juhan and Hyunwoo cooperating to protect their guys is so important. Yeah the good cop/bad cop 4
routine is really funny, but it also shows the company that Chronos is united. None of them are happy about this, and if they take action as a group, the company can’t pin it on a scapegoat.
Like, it really sucks that it had to get to this point, but Chronos has set that boundary that this is unacceptable management and the precedent that they are willing to make public moves to protect themselves. Fingers crossed this doesn’t have to happen again.
(Side note: I believe their current managers are genuinely trying to help, but it’s that classic middle management problem where their hands are tied. This isn’t ALWAYS true but it’s better for idols when their managers are willing to try.)
Hyunwoo is totally right. The agency doesn’t care about their talent’s safety? They value their PR over actual privacy? Okay then! Your talent isn’t going to prioritize your money over their physical and mental health!
Yes an idol should have a bond with their agency, but fundamentally it’s an employment relationship. It’s an employee’s right to go on strike and protest if their needs are not being addressed. I’m glad this series is covering the topic, so hopefully more fans will understand why kpop idols take such drastic actions and not blame them.
The second part is funny because just recently an idol getting bullied by her agency was dismissed and was told she’s not considered an employee under the Korean law so even tho there was proof of bullying they can’t do anything to help her. Korea’s law is trash lol. Idols aren’t seeing as human beings even within law
Talking about NJ
YIKES. Even less guilt turning on them, then!
Yep. I’m still shocked at this.
The princess wanted the duke to give her the FL in exchange for breaking the curse.
I saw slides of this on TikTok, I think this chapter is incomplete
He KNEW his mother(s) would go so far as to kill his wife, but still let them be in charge? He didn’t - just spitballing here - establish her authority as the Duchess and make sure everybody knew that Olivia had his full support?
Bruh. I’m done w this man.
Ok but there was this reddit story about a dude who tried to save his boss from her “abusive” husband after she showed up at work with concealed hickeys and knee bruises. This lady had to report him to HR because she was forced to tell him about her consensual sex life to get him to back off, which is not a conversation you should have to have with a coworker. Guy then got all pissy because he was just “trying to do the right thing”.
And benefit of the doubt to Shin Seungmin; I attribut this more to stupidity than malice. But the FL’s point still stands. He doesn’t know her well enough to be asking for her life’s details. She doesn’t owe him anything, and he’s also given her creep vibes for a while so she’s even less likely to trust his motivations.
Also even if she WAS being abused and denying it, the best thing he could do is quietly support her and be a safe person to go to if/when she decided to leave.
