I’m not looking forward to this chasing arc. I feel like there’s no real reason for it. It’d be one thing if ml actually did something to push mc away but he didn’t. The only reason he left was because of his brother which is insane. I get he’s grieving over his bf but why would you want to tear away your brothers love too? He said it was to protect him but I call bs.
Jiwon's lover, the original editor K "Kim Seonggyu" was k*lled by chairman Kang. Seonggyu's mother used him to replace her son as an editor K using his guilt over his lover's death. His view on rich guys become warped and he thinks Zeo is using Rawon for his own benefit too.
Yes I know the backstory but my opinion is still the same.
imo his bro hates elites to the bone so that might be the reason why he thinks its better to break them apart
in my honest opinion it's hardly a chasing arc since as you said, there's no real reason. their story is actually a slow burn type but slightly different from the usual kind of slow burn which is why i can't fault readers who say they don't see a chemistry between Zeo and Rawon. i just feel like ppl are way too impulsive when we hadn't really seen any actual progress besides them managing to bed each other. and then there's the matter with Rawon's brother. yeah he overstepped using Rawon's feelings like that and sure he partly did it out of brotherly concern but i just go with his actions as baby steps towards accepting his brother's eventual choice. not that i'm complaining but it doesn't really help that the updates are every 10 days since the story progress and character development takes twice as long
I find there’s this uptick of ppl constantly talking about chasing arcs. “Can’t wait for the chasing arc”, “the chasing arc is gonna be amazing” etc. I like a good chasing arc as much as the next person but there’s no reason to have one in every single story that you read. Then you end up with things like “Surge Into You” (which is one of my favorites) that has MULTIPLE chasing arcs for the same characters lmao. I’m just tired of seeing it
Imo many readers use it’s to justify shitty mls.
I want some kinda hard chasing arc in some bad bad stories like this one: https://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/honey_coated_s_class_guide/
I mean, we know they're gonna end up together so, I just want the ml to suffer
I mean i totally get it it's super angsty and exciting the first time and then they do it twice.. then again... then they kept on doing it... and then again like ughhh wtf ??? Yk when i say chase him to the ends of the world i didnt mean literally you guys just stfu and get together otherwise yall just hate each other in the first fucking place and should break up ahbdhababa
Why not though? I LOVE a good regretful seme + chasing arc, so satisfying. This is obviously only for stories where the ml is an asshole, in that case some chasing and suffering from the male lead (proportional to his wrongdoings) is necessary before he's forgiven imo. I won't even read a story with an asshole male lead unless I know that there's going to be a satisfying chasing arc (yes, I spoil myself :D)
Why didn’t he wrap his arm around him when they were sleeping?!?
