hwibum is actually so mature and such a green flag. cuz honestly yeonwoo's possessiveness and controlling is a bit much and he has a reason for it but hwibum doesn't know about that. yet he listens to his unreasonable requests anyway. and he's still fair to his friend too and gave him a chance to explain and then he cuts him off when it's obvious he's being antagonistic. seriously the best boi
To give a fresh prospective on bro, I think if you reread the whole story again, you will see that he wasn't actually romantically in love with Taehyuk.
The one thing we truly know about him (sorry forgot his name ㅠ) was that he was obsessed with Taehyuk and longed for his companionship. But I think he really did just see him as like a little brother. Bro grew up in a messed up family environment (heir to a corrupt nation/family) so he definitely did not grow up in a healthy emotional space. He didn't get to be a kid and had to mature very quickly. His only healthy relationship was with Taehyuk so he hung on to that and in his own way, he wanted to protect Taehyuk from the messy royal politics and keep his only "love" by his side.
People who grew up like that end up as an adult who doesn't know how (or even want) to build relationships with others. He got married but never did anything with his wife. He also never really tried anything with Taehyuk. A healthy-bodied grown man yet nothing..? He probably doesn't have the capacity to feel anything sexual cause his mind is too busy longing for emotional fulfillment. He sincerely loved Taehyuk but it was a fked up kind of love where he seeked the love he should have gotten from family, friends, etc.
That's why he was able to realise his wrongs and break down. Then he took his own life when he realised he killed the only person who ever showed him joy and kindess, the only person who ever mattered to him.
That's why in his next lifetimes where he grew up in better environments, he was able to repent properly. And when given the chance to be in a healthy relationship as a real family, he did it and was able to fully let go of his obsession and let Taehyuk be his own person. And then he got his closure.
I don't think he's such the bad guy everyone paints him to be. He's still an anatagonist who did Taehyuk wrong, but I think people are looking in too much at him cause not once did he try to bed Taehyuk. He's not a fked up rapey 2nd ML, he was a kid that never got loved and became a fked up guy.
yall never learn from hating (esp towards female characters). yall always say the most hateful vile things at the jump just like when yall hated on the girl who accidentally bumped into sungho.
look at the setting ffs... did you really think someone raised in a countryside village in skorea is going to be openminded and progressive?? and miok most likely has her own story where she had to learn the hard way that being "unordinary" is bad. and she's just a kid, she's going to university so she's probably around 18/19?
did yall forget our sunny days has this pattern of introducing a character with an unresolved sad backstory that sungho and haebeom help to resolve? very family drama coded, but yall dw to let the author cook and only complain when they just barely added the ingredients into the pot.
calm your tiddies down gosh that was lengthy
not this whole ass essay.
no, you calm down stupid bitch
Girl idc if she's a woman I would say the same shit if she was a man. I understand your point bc a lot of the times too many people hate on female characters in bl, but she's literally butting into his love life for no reason. yeah sure with good intentions but I'm still gonna criticize that, I don't hate her but I also don't exactly like her rn
I just hate giving ignorant people benefit of a doubt, like for fucking sure we should but it gets tiring having to feel like you have to spell every little word out all the time when most of the time they just won't listen. That was a bit of a rant that has nearly nothing to do with this but I'm still gonna leave that in
mangago cut my comment that i said i agree with you but damn bitch calm the fuck down LOL i am with you here bicch dont fight me
then you don't understand my point lol. some people are purposely ignorant but again, this is a countryside in skorea (yknow the country that's still largely closeminded and traditional?) and she's a kid who was raised with those values??? criticise her all you want lol we've all been clueless and ignorant at some point in our lives especially when we were young and we all had things we had to unlearn.
but some of yall's criticisms are just plain hateful vitriol. you didn't hate on her? good for you, then don't get heated at my comment, it wasn't for you. but hey unless the shoe fits right, and you felt the need to get all defensive.
i've seen the comments hating on the girl who accidentally bumped into sungho chapters ago. in fact, hate is not a strong enough word to describe the absolute cesspool the comment section had become that chapter. i'm tired. i'm not gonna be calm knowing this is that same comment section and we're faced with another female character that is somehow "in the wrong".
the internet has made ppl too comfortable with using swearwords and slurs thinking it makes them cool. but yall are just hateful and it's not the cute kind.
Girl I don't give a shit if they were taught that way, I grew up in a family who are also from a country that isnt super accepting, but I taught my own way of thinking and didn't end up ignorant. I don't have to give anyone a benefit of a doubt just because they weren't educated as a child, once you're a grown adult that's your own problem. Not mine or anyone else's.
"Somehow"? So you're saying you don't even see what's wrong with what's she's doing?? maybe you're actually the ignorant one wow
Actually I misread your comment so disregard this comment, wish you could delete comments on here
im replying to satogami, not you, da heck? why are you replying to me for? besides they are the ones who called me slurs first coz mangago created a misunderstanding by cuttinggy comment short.. learn to reply on the comments that are meant for you and leave the comments that aren't yours to answer
pretty sure uriel drowned derek bc mermaids/sirens drowning the man they like to be together with them only to find out they killed the man cause they can't breathe underwater is a common trope in mer-folklore. that could be what he meant by derek's death being his fault. could be wrong tho
sunbae is pretty and hot. this artist always hits it out of the park with her side characters like the ex and the cafe shop owner in woof wolf. but they're just side characters at the end of the day TT justice for them pls
"i can no longer kill myself, a man who loves you." fuckkkkkkkk, for a suicidal person to say that?? ma gahdddddd
hits as hard as "i would die if i could, but for you, i would live"
when bro said hangyeol only has him, he really meant he only has hangyeol. which is understandable tbf, it's really an extreme case of oldest sibling syndrome. he faced the brunt of his parent's neglect and had to emotionally raise a child on his own, dude's lonely af.
i feel like he would have benefitted more from staying over at dojun's house to see what a warm family really is like. maybe then he'd heal and build a healthier rs with hangyeol.
controversial themes aside, i've not been a fan of scarberi's recent works and webtoon formats i think are not her strong point x_x but i at least like that she's going back to the pretty boy seme x handsome rough uke dynamic with her character pairing. in fact rather than hangyeol x taehyuk, that scene of older bro x taehyuk in the washroom was (ФωФ)
Imma ignore all that and process it later when S2 comes out. But wow Hayden looked so good in that panel when he smiled at Brett ´◡` I don't think Brett likes Hayden the same way yet, but that face he made looked he would have been open to explore it at least
This new situation complicates it though, I feel like Brett either opens up moved by Hayden's sincerity or closes up cautious of Hayden's deep intense feelings. Either way, I love Brett and I want more of that sexy masculine whore.
baby iruma and opera my heartttttttttttt
