Am I the only one who doesnt hate the focus on the side pairing? I dont think this is the kind of manhwa with fwop fwop and the main chaarecters just falling in love. It really explores the nuances of sex work and i personally love how every charecter is fully fleshed out and has their on problems, and no one is ever two dimentional. Sometimes. in some manhwas I skip chapters just because everyone else other than the main pairing is boring and very two dimentional, or are just a collection of tropes falling for each other, but no one in this manwha feels like a trope to me. The only other bl that feels like a mature take on adult life is probably perfect buddy, but in a different way. Ill be looking forward to this one in particular.
I dunno man the second couple is simply not interesting to me. I just find the main couple's story more intriguing. And chemistry wise they are way ahead of the side couple. Also individually
as characters I like them both.
i have a problem with myungha being immersed in his sorrows and carrying burdens on his shoulders as if he's someone's hero and completely forgetting to consider the feelings of the ones around him and how impulsive jungwon tends to get when things get suffocating, see how going to a loan shark went through his mind at least 3 times since this marriage with mia thing started. i wanted to see them changing and getting better, because the way things are rn it just doesn't look like anything other than a toxic relationship. i can't get into it, they're so annoying to me
The thing with jung won is that hes never felt the active consequences of any mistake he's made. The first time he borrowed money from his older brother, all he knows is that his brother got mad at him and took the money to the other brother, and then came back with the money. He doesnt know the humiliation the mc has gone through from the loan shark brother. He also thinks that since theyre related, hell get off easy compared to other debtors, but also doesnt know that this is his older brothers sick ploy to take his insecurities out on the main charecter. I think he still needs to go through more development, and thats what i look forward to. I think if there is an easier option to get money in a short time instead of busting your ass for it (jungwons first pov chapter literally says hes an easygoing guy who wants to take the least effort for the most results.) of course you keep thinking it. In his mind that one action could potentially make his loved ones life easy and buy more time for everyone.
With myungha idk what to say rlly his moms wasting away, and both of them know that the moms being a burden, with no one exxplicitly saying it out loud. That kind of sorrow really does alienate you and if the same thing happened to me I would also not really consider other peoples feelings because my mother is wasting away. Also working as a stripper and not tellign your mom, and working a day job as well, means that you get little to no sleep, and couple that with your mom dying and working as a stripper and daying someone whos the same gender as you, the offer to assimilate to "normal" society is very tempting, and has parallels to real life where a lot of gay people do cut off things that mke them, them just to go back to normality. Both of them have things on their mind that are incredibly hard to articulate to communicate, and seeing them overcome that eventually is going to be the charehter development they deserve. Idk tho its not everyones cup of tea
I actually cant with how the nipples were drawn lmaooo, it took me out of it completely ╥﹏╥
Is it just me but I wouldnt even take 5 times the salary id ask for 10x the salary. Ive defied death so many times and for so little?
I cant lie, the premise was super interesting at the beginning, with transmigration, time travel and espers, the story had a good foundation with lots of ways to explore it. But the charecters are the ones who fall really flat for me. Not once was the question why the ml suddenly went through a personality shift when the fl died for the first time answered. The fl was emotionally abused by him in korea, and gave her life up for him, but as soon as the ml creepily manipulated people around her to influence her to try being with him again, she fell back into his arms in a show of true love conquers all type thing. Not once did the ml sincerely apologise to her about his actions in korea, and she just forgave his possesive actions both in the new world and in korea. Also, the fl is just plain dumb and things are just handed to her. Not once does she take the initiative to figure out what happened to her, or do any research on why these things happen. I would have loved to see her strategising evading the duke instead of being found out instantly ;-; and scheme a way to protect her family with her wits. Everyone is as deep as a sheet of paper, and their actions are one dimentional as well.
I think i can explain the ML past actions (based on someone's comment). Apparently he was being like monitored or something? And if he showed affection towards the FL they would've targeted her
Even the part where she’s just comfortable letting her family sit in poverty until it suddenly involved the ML bc why they fuck didn’t she think about the Korean food thing before??? She could have taken a lot of money before hand??? She knew it was a good business idea and her family was suffering???
When she first came back she had no idea that her husband was the OG!ML so why did she not try it out?
i actuallly cannot believe that they're goign through this route holy shit. The fact that now they're making the alpha a holier than thou character with the poor omega having literally no one else to lean on holy shit. Whats funny is that rereading this series makes me think that season one was going to go a different path, so much so that the tops redemption kinda came out of left field in season 2
I was so happy.....Author nim this plot twist just hurts
Man Id do anything for the bottom to actually get pregnant (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ please let there be side stories where that happens
