lowkey sad for taku because he asked the perfect question during that photo shoot to make haesoo realize his lingering feelings for joowon OOF. it’s like shooting yourself in the foot.
conclusion: taku #1 joohae supporter
the conclusion sent me akkakaksnsnak
bruvvv
i like to think of haesoo’s breakdown as something that’s been subconsciously building up. like when you spend countless days lying to yourself about being okay, convince yourself that your current relationship is a happy one, and that you’re satisfied with where you are. the picture just brought him to his breaking point.
his tears have absolutely nothing to do with romantic feelings towards taku. 100%. not when he’s looking at a picture of himself in utter despair over another lover.
call me a masochist but I want haesoo to cry more. I want him to break down because he’s lied for too long. except, this time, he can’t run to taku’s arms again. he’s already done that in the past. the fact that he’s still breaking down is a clear indication that it was never enough. he has to leave this cycle of pain and superficial comfort.
haesoo recognizing where he went wrong in his life and going back to mend it since that’s what fills the gaps in his heart is the ending.
the ending is not: “haesoo returns to toxic first love, so cliche.” please don’t reduce the story to this :/
Personally I feel like the non Joowon fan ..NO LETS JUST SAY the ANTI- JOOWON have already concluded in their minds that his and Haesoo relationship is Toxic and is always gonna be Toxic..... Just cause they don't like him...... Some not all but they can't really stand the fact that even after all this time Haesoo still didn't develope the feeling of love for Taku so he can actually move on from JOOWON....
true. all they ever do is bring up points from seaosn one. like, okay, i guess
i fear no man.....but that thing *points to taku straight hair*......that thing scares me
edit: THE WAY SOMEONE ASKED “why is he cosplaying joowon” ON TWT SHIXBDJD
lmao
Spoil chapter 92 taku become actor
Exactly my thought. I mean only the edit part.
actor w/ red hair HA

Yes I saw it every saturday is a mess on twi77er
joowon convinced haesoo to follow his heart in choosing his career and to not force himself down the “realistic path”. it’s literally foreshadowing the ending, because guess how he’s going to decide who to be with? of course youngha is dropping hints now, we’re so close to the end
so please, if even the thought of joowon ending up with haesoo is going to make you baby rage and leave obnoxious loud comments about how you’re dropping this or scream toxicity / incest, just leave silently now. thanks
Lavender do you have a blog or Twitter or anywhere you post bout LoH analysis? I’d like to follow you since I love reading what you write
^ what this person said
+ @ali ahaha no, i only have a priv twitter that’s not nearly as entertaining as my mangago acc, trust me
tbh in my experience with reading many love triangle stories, it’s almost always the character that’s lost hope & is essentially willing to let someone they love go if it makes them happy that “wins” in the end. from a narrative stand point, this makes sense. It’s the entire conflict. frankly, in the case of an ending where this doesn’t happen, there’d be almost no point to season three. characters like Haesoo need to go through the wringer sometimes if it’ll force them to recognize a missing piece in their life. that’s what this entire season has been about...I don’t understand how anyone could see otherwise.
and i’m not saying any names because people go batshit crazy when i do, but if you’ve seen the raws, youngha is now really drawing the divide between the two love interests. buying a ring is something they both share. but the situations, the reasons, the timing—it’s where the stark contrast shows. as their recent actions become even more polar, the ending becomes more clear, but I don’t think it’s necessarily cliche or rushed. you can be disappointed because it’s not your ship, I understand that, but to throw in arguments about a rushed ending as if it wasn’t subtly hinted at since the very beginning and all throughout is a bit much.

true. it’s crazy how like three recent chapters can make people suddenly flip their opinions on LoH....like weren’t y’all praising this during the 3 chapter sex scene last month
Hirunaka no Ryuusei!!!!loved the ending so much
nothing frustrated me more than this ending...
tbh me too when i first read it. i had to take a break and reread it, but when i did, i really gained a new appreciation for the second couple. people either need to do that with LoH or just leave silently now because i cannot some of these comments
I would have liked too, I tried, but really I can not like the end couple.
Fr, me too I think i took to heart several comments, which did not even deserve an answer, but when I see the debility of the comments sometimes, it's really hard not to answer them
I've read Hirunak No ryuuseei and the ending made me sad because I loved Sensei and I was rooting for him until the end. But yk... It's okay. No matter who our Uke ends with I'm still willing to accept
the people who downvoted clearly felt the sting to your words. i love this comment
fr i didn’t even mention names so uh....if they made assumptions based on what i sad that made them mad then clearly they see what i mean too
also haesoo’s blush attack was so cute ugh help. it’s love stay mad if you want
everyone out here talking about drama but i’m here appreciating lezhin doing god’s work by promoting this story for what it is at its core
http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/love_or_hate_yeongha/uu/ibx_chapter-83/pg-18/
that pic of them is *chef kiss* beautiful
100% art. no useless love triangle pandering
y’all are so quick to hop on the joohae closure train every time a new chapter is released i swear can’t trust anybody. (as a joowon stan i fully recognize bias, but for this post I really am just trying to point out what i see narratively)
friendly reminder that in the case of a comic medium, every individual panel is important and has a purpose, so yes I do think a lot about haesoo’s mom being brought into the scandal.
as we’ve seen, one of the biggest reasons why haesoo broke up with joowon was because he prioritized his fragile relationship with his mom. seeing as she appears pretty genuine in her attempt to make amends...call me crazy but it does look like she’s realizing how important joowon was/is to haesoo. there’s a point to every panel—overlook one and you miss what’s going on in the background. additionally, the focus on the way haesoo went “ah” after joowon mentioned the exhibit speaks wonders.
that aside it still feels like we haven’t reached the climax. the way you guys think this story will just end lamely with haesoo going to eat with taku...boring (although an accurate representation of their relationship). I do expect/hope something will occur that will force haesoo to choose, once and for all. otherwise...it’d be pretty anticlimactic
@ the silent taku stans that consistently dislike my comments despite them literally just being discussions about the story, here’s a cold truth: there have been no signs pointing to a taku ending. haesoo and joowon have been running this story since day one. they drive the plot, the characterization, the drama. So far every problem that prevented their relationship has been solved/looks like it will be solved in future chapters.
as always i’m open to opposing views...but i literally never get anything besides petty dislikes
Agree with everything. I don't see any closure at all between joohae in this new chapter. More like this chapter shows jooowon's character development.
agreed. if anything i think it further emphasizes the contrast between joowon and taku. whereas joowon is willing to let haesoo go for the sake of his happiness, taku is not.
Yeah. Also the fight between their parents is the biggest sign for me of joohae endgame. Their parents is the biggest obstacle of their relationship. If joohae not endgame, what's the point of ruining the relationship between their parents?
This! I can NOT emphasize enough how important this is. To be completely honest, if this scene didn’t happen I’d be thinking joohae closure too. but that fact that it DID, at this point in the story too, indicates that joowon and haesoo still have more ahead of them. that and the fact that their convo wasn’t satisfying and i don’t think they talked about their feeling at all.
the way haesoo went “ah” about the exhibit honestly makes it look like he forgot about it
They don't talk about their feeling or relationship at all, so how can that scene be the closure lol. For me, if there is a closure, that can only happened after joowon confessing. Joowon already said that he regret not telling haesoo how he feels. Why would youngdam make that scene of joowon regretting this, if they gonna make joowon ends up not confessing (again)?
literally. no ones moving on or rejecting anything when there’s yet to be anything to move on from or reject. stuff needs to be said.
if this af the climax of the Haesoo/Joowon drama then honestly it would be bad writing, but I really don't think that's the case.
there has been so much lead up over the last 20 ch at some sort of major breakthrough between haesoo and Joowon and ch 86 was not it lol
Indeed, as you said author almost left signs we need to see who's gonna endgame or what's going to happen, haesoo mother calling jowoon's dad that he's selfish while clearly she's the one who's selfish here. Ah.. bt jowoon is really calm here that's one of the reason for haesoo to surprise tho.
YES
facts period, honestly tho taku stans need to see a therapist
taku’s greatest development would come from losing haesoo. there, i said it. this is his first time experiencing love, no? that means he’s never experienced heartbreak....like, ever. remember when he couldn’t cry at his own uncle’s funeral? he lacks empathy—breaking up with people because he couldn’t understand how they felt about him.
how exactly does one gain empathy? experience. i’ve been pretty open about taku lacking development, and I think i pinpointed why. experiencing love for the first time just didn’t make him feel like a fully developed character. such a statement always felt super young, almost like something a teenager would say. and because he’s so young, he still has much to learn.
in short, if you love something, set it free. this would be such a crucial step in taku’s development and i would respect him SO much if he did this—if he realized that haesoo just wasn’t ready yet. and, if haesoo comes back, whether a few months later or years later, then he’s taku’s. otherwise, perhaps it wasn’t meant to be, but this doesn’t mean taku will suffer forever.
IN ADDITION, whereas haesoo’s & jooowon’s arcs have been about self reflection, taku’s entire arc is about self discovery. Love & Empathy. It wouldn’t make sense for H + J to suffer even more at this point. It wouldn’t add anything to their characters, only to the melodrama. Taku, however, can benefit from the growth caused by experiencing a full cycle of love.
Falling in love for the first time is not enough to be considered character development alone. What you learn from that experience, however, can be.
why are there so many dislikes on this when this literally proves to be taku's character arc: experiencing heartbreak for the first time because he'd been so apathetic towards meaningful relationships. taku stans barely bother understanding joowon/haesoo's perspectives, yet they can't they read their own fav character either lol
anyway, good taku analysis that connects very well to this comment: http://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/9859606/
that’s it. he yixin is very genuine and definitely not an asshole like y’all are claiming. hes baby i don’t make the rules
I too think like that. I think yixing broke up with zhan is to protect him from something or the area yixin is currently engaging is far too dangerous for zhan... I think that's why he plays the asshole role
