I cannot understand how this story is rated 8.8 because it is totally a 10/10 in my opinion. The plot, the characters, their dynamics, their development, the art are all flawless and perfectly executed. All I can say is that there are lots of people reading it who are not the target audience and I honestly wish they'll go read something else they prefer.
Yes, the BDSM realism is weak, but how many manhwas have successfully portrayed BDSM realistically? Yeah, 1 or 2, because it's so bloody hard to adapt into a comic alongside a primary plot. So, personally, I'm satisfied with the BDSM in this story and I don't feel I'm missing out on it.
The focus of the story is on Han and Lee and the drama surrounding their lives from multiple influences. We haven't even learnt anything about Han's past that clearly has a huge impact on his present. So, the BDSM really is only a small part of this story and it's unfair to judge the story based on its "unrealistic" depiction of BDSM.
In conclusion, I truly love this story and can't wait to read another 50 chapters in Season 2!!
What??? More excitement in Season 3??!! I just binged the whole of Season 2 and my god, was it a page turner?!! Character development of both MJ and Do Won did not disappoint and I'm so glad I let the whole season pile up as weekly catchups would have driven me crazy. Now with even more excitement promised for Season 3, I patiently look forward to my next binge-read!
