OMG it's back season 3!!!!! Lemme read, lemme read! Aight give me a sec, I want to savor this new chapter! Yeeeeeeeeh!!
Edit: Ahhhjjj the art is as beautiful as I remember, and the angst~~ Uhuhu, I already can't wait to see how Taeju will act once he knows Euihyun is pregnant (｡ﾉω＼｡)
Yeh, I agree with the other comment. The brother is kind of annoying for being so unaware. It almost seems on purpose (I know it's not on purpose, but at this point that would be better than actually being so oblivious that it just keeps hurting MC).
In a typical manhwa, if he wasn't a brother but instead a little sister who's naive and incompetent but gets everything handed to them, the inheritance, their father's love-- without ever having worked for it, they would eventually have been written as a white lotus who was secretly enjoying taking everything from MC while acting innocent without anyone suspecting them.
But apparently that's not the case since he's a brother, and he's written to be sincerely innocent...
Innocent but literally does nothing remotely helpful to MC. Like bro, either get with it or get out of the way!
Either renounce your position from crown prince, if you think your sister deserves it more, or at least stand up for her when your father abuses her! Stop acting like you don't see the way she's being treated in that house. Turning a blind eye to abuse is just as bad!
[edited: lol, halfway writing this long comment it slipped my mind he was older, got too caught up in the lil sis metaphor, that and he acts younger]
Hehehe yessss, for one millisecond there, I thought this story was going to forgive that bastard, but good thing the end of chapter 4 tells me that that guy is scum and won't be forgiven any time soon
Nah bro, after ch.12 I'm out. It was quick and nothing ended up happening, but I was still annoyed nonetheless. Ughkx not my type of ML. Bye.
MLs like that can't make me feel any romance in the story anymore when they do stuff like that
I’m not sure what you are referring too, but if you are talking about him holding back just know they’re already be sleeping together (the sex one) by chapter 17 I think
nah I'm not talking about him holding back from FL. I'm talking about him kissing the white-haired girl and almost having sex with her before he realized the girl was the duke's daughter and not a Night Maid.
Because, apparently as he says, if white-haired girl was a maid, he would've really had sex with her.
Definitely understand how people feel about being confused. Honestly couldn't tell apart the past from the present, BUT I managed to decipher it after having to re-read it a bit so yeah, the story's okay, they just need to work better on how to tell the story because it's a bit confusing.
It was a bit slow without much excitement going on. Also I don't believe in second chances like the one FL gave to her mother. The only time the mom chose to repent was until *she* was in a better place? Until *her* happy days came? Not when it was her daughter's wedding or anything. Emotional neglect for 27 years, even when she had the chance to repent or apologize at any time after her daughter was independent, she never acted on it. Why? Cuz she didn't feel like it yet? Cuz repentance depends on whether you feel like it? Not when your child needed it?
Nah bruh, I'm not saying redemption wasn't possible, but to me, with the way the story went, it was 'too little, too late'. She didn't do much, and she had horrible timing when she could've done it even just a few months earlier, at least on her daughter's wedding day.
Romance-wise, the ML is ultra-perfect, handsome, and kind. But for some reason I can't feel satisfied with the romance in this manhwa. Like, I can't find closure. They opened up with the whole 'one-sided love' concept-- but of course I didn't necessarily want it to be a stereotypical story and drag that part out, I know it was just a plot device to start the story-- but still, it felt swept under the rug too soon, and my heart still felt hurt for FL whenever I saw her two best friends be a couple.
Like, yes, I'm glad FL is over the best friend dude. As she should, when she has a perfectly good new hubby by her side. But again, as a viewer and reader, I don't feel the satisfaction from that aspect of the story.
Next time, pls don't introduce slightly angsty-romance concepts like that if they're not going to be addressed that much. It left me mulling over it everytime I saw the red-haired best friend and the dude best friend be together. I guess maybe that's why the story chose to avoid them for most of the later chapters. I guess other viewers didn't enjoy it much either.
For the last story about the Niece (Se-hyun) and her boyfriend (Tae-woo) it also felt a bit lacking, and again unsatisfying. Like, bro I thought you knew how to read Se-hyun well, you even figured out who was making her miserable at school. Why were you letting that she-snake rub her scales all over you? You have enough experience from being popular to have noticed she was clearly hitting on you, why'd you let this one slide and not fend her off? Why did you let her so near you to the point that snake felt more secured next to you than your actual girlfriend did? So much inconsistent plot holes. And once again, not a really satisfying conclusion. The answer was just to f*ck and everything was fixed for that story. The end.
i get allll ur points but honestly i feel like the mom thing was really realistic. the mom changing after 27 years is realistic cause shes probably thought about how to apologize for years but sometimes people choose to act the same instead because its the only way shes ever interacted with her daughter, and the second chance thing was also realistic. in the end, we all crave affection from our parents and she chose to forgive her mom because at the end of the day yk "better late than never". plus haewon always craved love from her mom so it makes sense. it might seem dumb that she didnt "repent" sooner but we all make mistakes and obviously that doesnt forgive neglectance but she chose to change and thats already a huge step in their relationship. idk if you've ever been in the same situation as her, cus i feel like you'd understand her better if u have.
Woahhh cliffhanger!!! Danggg why do I always end up with the latest update being just near the climax??? Uhuhu it's torture to wait, I've got to knowヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
Always the best fuckn part like whyyy ╥﹏╥
Ohh, I remember the short version of this, aight lemme see how the adapted long version is like. Gimme a sec, I'm at a public place atm I'll check it out when I get home.
I'd advise you not to.
I disagree, it’s so stupid it’s become funny.
Translator was disrespectful and kept promoting their fanfic. So selfish. The TL is like the Velma creator who really hates Scooby Doo but still made a whole show about it.
My guess is this translator had the same ulterior motive as the Velma creator, which is to leech off of a popular work/title to get views for themselves.
You can say you don't like the work once or twice. But staying around and scattering your TL notes all over the whole manhwa just to hate on it, is just pathetic. (I hope I never see this TL again).
To anyone else who hated this, it's okay to hate the work if that's how you feel, but cursing the author, by praying and hoping for their financial downfall, is so trashy. It's not like they're promoting racism, sexism, or actual sexual harassment in their work.
If you think it does promote the sexual harassment, let me ask, how?? Do you think Killing Stalking is promoting the dark elements it had in it's story? No, of course not. Why? Because it's just part of the story, this author isn't telling people to go out there and become a rich handsome kidnapper who blackmails someone into living and having sex with them.
Again, everyone is allowed to hate the work as much as they want to, BUT being a TL and ruining the work with your negativity is shitty, go put your notes at the bottom of the page not in the middle of the work, or just don't work on stuff you hate it if you can't help parading your hate around.
Second, unless the author has a real life scandal or crime, or their work has real life implications of promoting any immoral and unethical motives, then there's no good or justifiable reason why you'd go so far as to wish and pray for something horrible to happen to them.
You'd be a hypocrite for exclaiming how much you hate the characters for being immoral, yet here you are wishing evil prayers on real life people. (I've literally seen a commenter say they hope the author dies... wtf).
Who cares.. publicity is publicity. They're spending money translating for you, little bitch! Humble yourself
see this is what I mean... commenters being worse than the work they hate. so angry.
Wait what? Ew. Why would you say that I have never read this piece of garbage. I do want to apologize tho as I will admit..I am quite unhinged with my passionate opinions.. sorry bout that, Watcher. Also, don't lie and say I claim this trash again or we beefin cus why're playing like that..
and so the truth comes out... you've never even read the manhwa.
but you're going around the comments section with nothing to really fight for, you're just looking to start a fight with someone in general.
I don't have to explain myself to you? I obviously don't like it for a reason.. I get the general premise and didn't like it, so what now? My og comment wasn't even in regards to this manhwa it was in regards to the translator. Quit being a moron
if you've never read the manhwa, it means you've never even seen the translator notes...
which means you don't know about either the manhwa or the tl notes.
so u literally don't even know what anyone's been talking about this whole time, you've just been using ur vague imagination of what it is and got mad about it...
If that's what you're convinced of then what can I do? I'm totally fuming at nothing. Let me suck ur dick as an apology then.
i wonder how you ended up in this comment section. probably, you read the title that clearly said sadistic and saw the ominous thumbnail cover, yet you still clicked it despite 'already knowing the general premise'
scrolled all the way down to the comments section... and just started replying to any comment you saw. not really knowing anything about it.
i truly wonder how people like you find this fun.
Stfu
And you are..?
Like a true you rapist apologist, trying to convince me of wrongdoing by trying to excuse shallow as deep.I didn't do any of that, believe or not but who knows for sure other than yk.. me.. the person who you're trying to convince of their own 'allegedly' doings..? What a prune.
So far, you have told me:
"Let me suck ur dick as an apology then."
That's sexual harassment.
And you've called me:
"little bitch!"
That's verbal abuse.
You do realize that you've actually inflicted more real life abuse than the manhwa ever did...
If you think that sexually harassing people online is shallow and not deep, then it's really ironic that you're calling me the rape apologist. When I have to be the one who has to point out to you that sexual harassment and abuse isn't a light matter. You really shouldn't go around harassing people like that.
Pls su
Doesn’t
Charge me. I said the MANHWA is shallow. Ironic you claim sexual harassment and abuse isn’t a light matter as you sit here and defend it with your life… not a good time to get imaginative.
so your sexual harassment was just my imagination... do you know how many victims are usually told that by the harassers...
"Let me suck ur dick as an apology then."
It's a rhetorical offer meant to demean or disrespect the other party in a sexual manner.
That is sexual harassment.
Like I said, charge me. The mangwha’s still shallow despite your efforts to distract from the topic. Sorry luv
okay.... so you committing sexual harassment really isn't a big deal to you... wow.
you'd rather I focus on you calling the manhwa shallow... than talk about your harassment...
if you really want to 'stay on topic' and try to brush off your sexual harassment towards me as not a big deal like other harassers typically do--
then if you *actually* read my og comment, you'd know that I say it's okay to call it shallow. It's okay to dislike the work and even hate the story.
But my topic wasn't about whether it was a good or bad story, it's about the translator being disrespectful by leaving those TLs in the middle of the work instead of below it. And how commenters like you who harass people over the manhwa have done much worse than anything that's happened in the story because this time real life people are actually affected.
..and honestly, you've proved it. You've proved that reading this manhwa doesn't encourage readers to support the dark elements of the story.
Because you've never read the manhwa, and yet you've still sexually harassed me.
The fiction that's happened in the story stayed in the story, you on the other hand, acted it in real life, being worse than the fiction.
So you've just said a whole bunch of nothing. If anything I said is affecting your life to such an extent. I suggest you do something about it maybe therapy.
Aight well I've had my say. Their last comment has nothing to do with the topic anymore... well neither did the rest of their replies tbh, they were mostly just harassments and insults.
In summary of this thread, the person who kept replying had neither read the manhwa, nor the TL notes they're defending, nor my og comment they're fighting.
So, I'll just close this thread, at least it'll show people that there are just others here without a real purpose other than to troll and harass people.
And that there's nothing inherently wrong with the manhwa but rather with how some people will choose to interpret it.
This thread exemplifies that reading the work doesn't automatically define you as immoral in character;
and not reading it doesn't equate to you being a good and upright person who wouldn't dare let their eyes fall upon on a fictional bl manhwa that only bad people would read.
That there are those who can claim to be against all the dark elements of this manhwa, but in the end, turn out to be the culprits who actualize them in real life.
Maybe they happen to be one of those certain people who have a weak mental resistance to the influence of fiction. They might not even be aware about the possibility of having your own sense of discernment and moral values without them being shaken by a fictional erotic manhwa.
So read what you like as long as you have the basic human intelligence to separate fiction from reality, and the capability to be aware of how your own words and actions affect real life people.
Because it seems like some people care more about how a fictional character was treated in the story rather than how they treat a real life person.
Are you serious? Narrating in 3rd person to no one using big words to fit a word count isn't impressive nor imitating especially when you're sill saying a whole bunch of nothing, you have no point. Get over yourself English lit.
you better stop right there, the seme is taken okay. don't try ruining their relationship with ur jealousy
