I don’t understand the hate here. This is a beautiful and tragic story. It’s definitely psycho but this is why we read the ones with these tags. Seriously this is a really good story. I know that I am psycho for liking these types of stories but it’s really a great read. This webtoon is finished with a side story as well, so if you are curious you can read ahead.
The author doesn’t mention anything about being criticized for being too Chinese. It appears she said that it wasn’t her favorite piece bc she prefers more freedom with her work, and felt restricted in the adaptation of someone else’s novel. Where is this hate of Koreans and Chinese and such coming from?
I believe the artist is Korean? This is a manhwa? Korean webtoon? Why the hate for Koreans? Calling another race names is not a great look for fans and creates, guys. The artist Sid she didn’t find this a favorite work for her. Profundis is great I thought. Dark and toxic. So maybe she wanted to focus on her favorite works? I don’t know I am so confused as to this manhwa’s fanbase….
I am the only one who is totally confused by all the characters, apparently. I came to the comments to see if there was an explanation, but it appears I am the only one confused. There are too many characters introduced all at once and I have no idea who is who and what is going on. I am so so so confused. Somebody, anybody, please do a character chart and explanation please.
I couldn’t for the life of me remember, who Hanjun was, but I just remembered he was the sex friend of the original artist guy. He was dumped after the artist guy got back with his childhood friend. He was super patient and wronged in the first story. I am glad he is getting his own spin off. But it didn’t seem like he really actively or passionately pursued the artist friend in Lover Boy. Even in the beginning of this story, he has kind of an apathetic air about him. I hope he shows more passion in this story, and he fights for his love.
I saw that, Jin low-key looks like the New Recruit guy, so I was a little confused. I thought it may may have been the continuation of The New Recruit….. which would not have been bad either. :)
That’s been my issue with Hanjun as well, just seems like he goes through the motions more than anything and it doesnt make him actually sympathetic which im sure is what the author is aiming for. It’s just comes across that he likes what he likes as long he’s interested, but beyond that he’s not actually passionate, admittedly I feel Eunho is wasted on him, but maybe opposites attract so we’ll see.
I love these kinds of stories! The drawings are so beautiful as well. Can’t wait for season 2!
