being someone who always went back to their abuser, honestly this type of shit ending made me feel a bit better (or seen? understood?) than the usual "I believed in myself and escaped and never looked back!!!" happy ever after endings that a lot of abuse stories have. I feel like it's a realistic bad ending that a lot of people are pissed at bc they haven't experienced it. not saying it shouldn't have had a happy ending but not everything needs to have a happy ending where everyone figures themselves out and gets revenge or whatever cause that barely ever happens irl in my experience lol
fr!! like this would've been such a realistic depiction of abusive relationships if it didn't desperately try to frame itself as a romance, especially at the end. it's one of the first times I've seen a realistic timeline of hatred -> depression -> returning to the abuser because that's what's familiar. people hate hopeless endings despite that being the most common result irl, i guess :/
yknow the typical bl plots and tropes like how the top is often super op/mafia boss/playboy/etc and the bottoms are usually in debt/prostitutes/poor/etc?? just those things you see in every other bl. looking for stuff like that but the bottom and top's roles are reversed, like under the green light maybe?

i love it when the bottoms are just as crazy as the tops and i adore how euihyun actually told taeju to fuck off and gets mad at him instead of the usual uwu soft boy uke attitude yk? need more bls where the bottoms dont put up with the top's toxicity
No pushover bottoms (づ￣ ³￣)づ

I’m guessing u like visual novels from your pfp. You should try ooe it’s a new yaoi visual novel that came out but it’s only in Japanese. I hooked a translator to it and it’s pretty readable. The top is the mc and the love interests are all bottoms. They legit play 4d chess with the mcs brain and some are super crazy gaslighters.
totally up for it i love vns! what translator do you use?? ive only played official and fan translations so ive never had to directly use a translator
fine addition to the list of "id just kms if i was the bottom in this story" cause even though theres probably gonna be a happy ending no way all this shit doesnt leave some long lasting ptsd
