"Your sense of debt has long since become a insurance policy for me"
Idk how yall read chapter 56 and think tj and Ian are meant to be when it indicates and shows how doomed their relationship, mainly due to tj. Please this isn't cute and he didn't necessarily did this for Ian he mainly did all this for himself.
-
OH WAIT!! Tj says that quote and after, it follows the scene of him getting the scar. Which he was there to kill Jang not save Ian (he didn't know Ian was there) but Ian believes tj was there to save him which is not the case and tj let him believe that and that's where Ian debt (guilt?) may have started.
But ig I'll give credit to tj for once. FUCK MR JANG!! glad he's dead after trying hurt Ian.
Right? I thought I was the only one weirded out by that. Idk how any one else can justify that. I don’t think TJ or any other main characters are evils in the story, but I do hope they get their happy ending.
Now I see why Cain story was so detailed and added even though it was not needed. He was the planned MC until it was turn into a love triangle. Ig the author wanted to keep that part of the story but it just doesn't work. Should've saved his story for another time.
The 2nd ML should've just been given a simple background, the reincarnation story is definitely something that could've been it's own story.
I'm team Cain, but you can tell how desperate the author tried explain why Cain is important after many Cain readers pointed out how in the end they made him irrelevant. Feels like she's trying to please readers but just couldn't follow through and many are calling bs with her justifications.
I'm hesitate to start this because it's a love triangle then someone told me MC a virgin in a R RATED webtoon. It make me more nervous bc whoever he sleeps with first is most likely endgame. So is it true he never went all the way before? This makes the love triangle more stressing lol
I knew Cain was gonna remember Jooin but she really centered the whole chapter around Jooin instead of Cain own worth because she still has Cain saying it's an order and referring to Jooin as master.
Korean authors to need learn that it's okay for the 2nd ML to absolutely forget about the MC and move on to a new love interest but they love the idea of the 2nd ML always having to remember the one that never looked their way. I always see this shown in all genres on manhwa.
The potential this story had. Some part were good, some decent, some bad and some absolutely horrible. The pacing of this story is a fucking mess and tons of things should've been taken out as it become very irreverent in the end. During S3 I thought things were going very well seeing Jooin trying not to be impulsive and developing his self-worth. A possibility of him being solo, of course I knew that wasn't gonna happen but it would've been nice to see a change in this cliché bl arrangement. All things Jooin had developed ended up being useless because he ended up still being impulsive and forgetting how humiliated one made him.
Now the romance. THE ROMANCE WAS NOT THERE. We had one pinning and giving but was not reciprocated. Then one not even trying to romance up until very last minute after confessing.
Honestly if done better and developing endgame relationship before the timeskip, so they can get a break after a while, then maybe it wouldnt be bad.
Edit: one thing I really dislike is that Jooin didn't even choose. He didn't go or look for the one he loved. I didn't like how it was just a coincidence, yahwi wasn't even sure to look for Jooin himself when he literally hop on a plane to Korea because he misses him. Like no...make it more deserving more love. Everything just left lackluster.
I was observing the entering tension within this comment section. I notice a difference. Though both sides are acting overboard. I pick up that those who don't like yahwi always use things that he's done and smack talk him, not purposely taking jabs at those who like him. While those who dislike Cain usually only opt using him being animal in the past as an insult and purposely take jabs at those who like Cain. And that Jooin is very dislike by both sides, even endgame could not save the dude. This what I noticed majority of the section for 2/3 weeks.
Ughm is it just me, or Jooin still feels like a pushover even with his idgaf attitude he's trying to show here.
I think they're trying to show him the way he was with yahwi before in S2, where he didn't let things slide and called him out. making jooin look somewhat nonchalant in a way but it just doesn't work here.
You're absolutely right, the act is stupidly unconvincing and so not jooin-like. This entire situation doesn't make any sense in the first place, so no wonder his character's also odd
It is odd because he developed a 'take no shit' attitude 90% of the story only to have him drop that and everything he said/stood by. You can tell they still wanted give that attitude but it just doesn't work when he went back to the one he was rejecting since chapter 38 and 39....
Yuh
Hadn't he said "mom was right... time awaits for noone." And he was thinking of which path to take for his OWN happiness.
Just came in to check people opinions on the chapter but all I see is disgusting things and people picking a fight with those who don't share the same opinion as them. Spamming the section with irrelevant things. Even wishing death on a team over dumb fiction.
You lost me at dumb fiction.
lmao you think yours to claim is some holier than thou piece of literature by immanuel kant? this story is fiction and the storyline is extremely dumb and done very badly.
most bl is just dumb fiction lol
this one is. but most? nah.. You just never came across good ones.
genuineness good ones? very few but i have
I recommend doukyuusei , painter behind the curtain and the beast must die. That's why I have very high expectations coz of this three manhua worth the read promise
I read painter behind the curtain, chefs kiss to storyline but the art style took me about 4 chapters to get used to it lol
Rereading the chapters and ngl the car accident chapter is so fucking random. Jooin was unfazed and unbothered. Went home ate a meal without getting checked up. My brother in christ wtf ??
a lot of the plot is very random like wtf??? like are we not gonna address how sudden a lot of things were dropped on us
The writer has the mindset of <things just happen sometimes>. Because someone had ask who started the rumor at Jooin campus and their reply was "rumors just start, this like this just happen" so like there's definitely things they don't address when for a story they have too. It just really random sometimes but at least most aren't a big deal
Knew once ch59 release many would start blaming Ian and making it about tj as if tj didn't take advantage of this situation.
Also ridiculous some have the mindset that a undamaged person (Jo) can't be important to (or be with) someone who is damaged. I didn't know you had be damaged to be able to sympathetize with someone troubles and still be willing to be with them regardless.
Yall keep saying Jo too nice as if it's a bad thing. Like are we forgetting how headstrong and resilient he is? Even with his own moral conflictions. Jo has his own flaws and he still can go on par with Ian as well.
I disagree! I think Jo is very demaged! He got obsessed with Ian over night. That’s not normal at all! It’s okay to have a crush but to go as far as him, that’s not healthy! And that for me is what doesn’t make sense in the story. Ian and TJ have a back story as to explain their behaviour. Jo was supposed to be born and raised in a healthy environment.
Yes! 1000% Jo's general "innocence" to the trauma Ian has experienced is not something that negates his ability to love and appreciate Ian. Just cause he didn't go through TJ and Ian hell doesn't mean he doesn't have strength and resilience. People end up creating an imaginary unbalanced relationship between Jo and Ian because they don't see Jo as a person who’s lived his own life and dealt with his own shit. These experiences are not mutually exclusive but ppl act like they are. But yeah anyway TJ is a bitch regardless of what Ian did or didn't do.
Yes absolutely and you said this so well and much better than me, it was hard to put it into words but I'm glad someone understood what I mean. They always try make Jo and Ian relationship seem unbalanced when it's actually more equal in terms compared to tj.
