TLDR:
Imo there are 2 things I keep looking at:
1. Seoan, who has been medicated already and went to the doctors before, should know very well what kind of symptoms Woowon is presenting. He himself knows it well that Woowon's best place is not Seoan's house but a hospital for therapy and rehabilitation.
2. NOT victim blaming Seoan, what he's going through under Woowon's delusional aggression is horrifying, but he is still very wrong for enabling Woowon to vent such aggression to him physically without actually actively treating it.

Long words ahead, I think it's been pretty obvious that Woowon is going to keep his mouth shut until he explodes inside out. And right now he's imploding inside and all that is left is the thin layer of his facade to just tear apart and he might as well end it all. The fact he's still alive is the only thing making him believe he's still human. Other than that, his subconscious and unconsciousness believe he's entirely something else.

Woowon isn't going to open up, at least that's the kind of character he showed himself to be right from the start. The only way for things to go at this point is for him to break completely and, hopefully away from anyone and everyone else.

Imo, breaking up wouldn't do them well. Seoan needs to lock Woowon up in rehab but also visit him regularly to reinforce their commitment to their relationship despite distance. Woowon needs that relationship to find some way to stay alive or conscious, breaking that might lead him to completely kill himself. As morbid as that sounds, I fear we'd have to settle because I doubt there's any 'healthy talk' we're going to see through that breaking point.

Can't wait for this new arc in their relationship

    this is the most nuanced take ive seen so far

I wish I could have Yigon's brain to win at life but having that kind of family? No thanks.

Hakyung is really... Um dare I say closely familiar in personality to a certain other bastard. Still, I am LOVING it. But he's way too cautious, when is he going to start acting up and actually out to kill Yigon? I can't wait to see the ultimate crash outs. I hope we get a near death situation for Yigon, something so severe and drastic that it becomes a turning point for both Hakyung and Taekang

I also wonder what kind of development Taekang is going to go through? Yigon is apparently his type when it comes to appearance, I supposed this is the "A falls first but B falls harder" kind of couple. I really hope Taekang falls super hard and down bad.

Decent read! Can't wait to find out how this story pans out.

Hi! I know there's quite a bunch for Manhuas but I'd like to hear from anyone with good suggestions of manhuas/manhwas/mangas where the Seme goes absolutely crazy after seeing their Uke die/suffer lethally.

Uke gets in a grave situation where he actually dies or is lethally hurt.
I want to see a beaten and bloody uke preferably.
Seme goes crazy about it. He kills people or kills himself whichever.
Any level of graphic violence
Ok with either the Seme is the one that hurt uke or an outsider antagonist hurt the uke.

No vintage art style
Preferably no cheating

Any theme/setting (historical/modern/scifi/etc.)
Manga, Manhwa, Manhua
Novel, but I'd prefer comics for an easy read ATM
Short stories or long stories
Ongoing or Completed

Thank you so much! I really just need some explosive angst. Appreciate all your recommendations.

Hi, I'd like some recommendations on highly angsty BLs. Here's a few things I'm looking for (one or all of the details, not picky just need some good angst):

Where Top was using Bottom and at some point Bottom finds out, runs away/has an accident/loses memories/etc.
Where Top was cheating on Bottom and Bottom decides to just end it all or anything
Bottom was heavily abused, dies, transmigrated or reincarnates into a modern era or just reincarnates and lives a second chance
Where Bottom chases the Top and ends up losing his life and Top regrets and all that
Bottom gets kidnapped by 2nd ML/Main Antagonist and Bottom genuinely gets hurt

Long and worthwhile chasing/redemption arc for Top

Manga/Manhwa/Manhua/Novels
Any setting (Historical/Fantasy/Modern/Sci-fi/etc.)
Short or Long Stories

Vintage art style

I think I've asked this before and got lots of novel recommendations, unfortunately I've just finished reading them all and need new fuel.

Thanks to everyone who'd give me their favorite recommendations!
