He’s honestly not as bad as I expected. I’ve always read terrible things about Joo Jaekyung but I think the way he mistreats Kim Dan is very on par with his personality and the way he’s treated all his other fuck buddies. Truthfully, nothing he has done so far has discouraged me from reading this.
Oh, I know. I definitely don’t think he’s a good person. I’m just saying the way he acts towards Kim Dan is the same way he acts with everyone else, and hence, it makes sense. Jaekyung has treated people as disposable his entire career, and that definitely wasn’t going to change just because a new fuck buddy showed up. People don’t just change overnight.
I think now that Kim Dan has abandoned him, it will be interesting to see how he deals with that. After all, he was always the one throwing people away, so now that Dan has left out of his own volition, Jaekyung is finally going to feel the same abandonment he’s put all those other men through. I think an event like this is a more realistic reason for a character like him to change, than the simple appearance of a “pretty-faced roommate with a sad story”.
I have hopes that the author made him into a solid piece of shit since the beginning to make that redemption arc that much more satisfactory. Can’t wait for season 2, honestly.
Oh, you know, I didn't go through everything you wrote, so I must have gotten it wrong. But you're right, people don’t just change overnight; that’s where you’re absolutely correct. Still, I really hope he might change now that Kim Dan is gone. I really want Jaekyung to learn from this, and I also hope he might even plead for Kim Dan to return. But yeah, you're right about being excited for season 2. I’m so impatient-it feels like it’s already been a million years!
I think he's nice. He never killed someone, stole something, harm ppl for fun. He's doing his job correctly, he beats the bad guys, talked to an old women feeling alone.... Yes, he's arrogant, egocentric and never listens to someone that's just the bad personality author wanted to give him and you can't hate him for that.
I was trying so hard to like it but 49 chapters into it and I felt like we were getting nowhere.
The sex scenes were good and Dooshik being affectionate was a nice change for once, but the plot became painfully repetitive and the fact that they got together so early on also hindered me from wanting to keep reading. Not the worst manhwa ever, just not one that I wish to finish reading.
finish it…
Too bad
If you so continue be very careful about season 3. It has some of the most brutal SA and R scenes I’ve EVER seen in a manhwa
girl please finish it. i was one of the people that stopped reading it 50+ chapters in as well but coming back to it was the best decision i made. the characters and the relationship they’ve built with one another is something incredibly raw and beautiful. you need to finish it!
you def would not love missing love that shit is unfathomably hard to read
I already spoiled the ending for myself after giving up on it but, who knows? Maybe I'll give it another try in the future like I did with Painter of the Night. I just really want to move past this for now since all Jooha does is suffer and it's agonizing to read.
