This story is interesting because it says so much and nothing all at once. It is simple yet deep unexpectedly. The best part is that it doesn't drag at all. The characters aren't complicated though they deal with heavy baggage in life.
As for the main characters, especially Hyunje, his character is quite unique as BLs go where the personality is twisted but yet he isn't cruel for the sake of it. Though I would've loved to know more about his childhood and his parents. It was left to the readers' imagination when it could've been explored more. He is also brutally honest and direct and unexpectedly flirty and has that tsundere rizz down. "Then...wanna get married?" Had me giggling like i am 12.
Seungmin on the other hand was so fucking funny yet stubbornly righteous. I didn't like that girl who ran away to USA knowing full well someone was paying for the mistakes she committed in life...and not even for anything but by being labelled as a perpetrator of sexual assault. Seungmin is a saint fr. Even until the end, he was so steadfast in his ideals. I think Hyungje found the perfect man for him. Perfect.
Also I liked that they explored the concept of people who struggle with the idea of giving love although they want to receive it from others, it gives an insight into how people are so traumatised by the lack of love in their childhood or kindness or empathy that they become hollowed-out individuals as they grow older and find themselves unable to form deeper connections with anyone. Hyunje's characters is so pitiful and he truly needed someone like Seungmin who loved him unconditionally and without logic lol. I hope he feels loved forever. Both of them.
The only thing is even until the end they felt like brothers or friends to me, I didn't really get any sexual tension vibes at all but that might be due to the artstyle, I wonder if this had a different artstyle, tbe vibe and popularity of the story might've been different... though I liked how simplistic it is and obviously screams shounen-ai. I liked it!
We aren't dropping this, we're just on a hiatus.

It's gonna be worth it sis (▰˘◡˘▰)
on my way to go pay for the author's patreon
ily tnx for the heads up!!
This artstyle kinda hurts my eyes idk why...maybe it's because like a filter has been applied to the characters. I've seen this artstyle before in some other artist's works...and the eyes are also very reminiscent of POTN Nakyum. Anyway....
This author writes the best "He's so bad but he does it so well" MLs hahahhaa i can't even be mad. It's full of clichés but I love it. Not a single annoying character in sight. It is a blessing in itself.
The fact that this is a novel...hehehehe I'm tempted to go and read it but the art and story is so fucking hilarious hahahaha
..
Do you have a link?
Unfortunately it's only avialble on ridi rn
The only problem i have with age gap thing is that it's icky especially if it is established as a brothers like thing at the start... though you get to see how possessive usually the younger one is since he is a kid but still he's a minor...the balance of power in their relationship too...we know the older guy is a green flag but still it's kinda icky. I wish kinda their relationship when he's young is dragging for so long... to have deep feelings for someone who rescued you and did that once or twice is enough but guardian...it's like developing romantic and sexual feelings for your adopted parents....it's just icky. But I do love this story and these characters are lot...but yk.
The blonde gong is serving cvnt i can't (≧∀≦) time to lock in
OMFGGG I was just browsing without hope but it has a novel and it is SMUTTTTTT fuck me I needed a new Chinese bl novel to go insane overrrrrrr but it has dead link
I found these two links after hopelessly searching for a while:
https://danmeinovel.com/manga/thrive-in-catastrophe/
https://wuxia.click/novel/thrive-in-catastrophe
Don't know if the translation is good yet but at least the whole chapters are there. It isn't a very long novel ┗( T﹏T )┛
I found some old translators' work here: https://fullnovels.com/thrive-in-catastrophe/?pg=1
I nearly forgot what the story is about lol but ah it is a really good one. The hand cutting off scene was great...very Daemon Targaryean of him lmao. The difference between the two mls is the hero vs villain type thing, Garon is the villain ofc but the kind like "he'll destroy the whole world to save you" and the kind brother is the hero that might sacrifice him for the world kinda good person but perhaps not.
His dirty talk was so random lol though my heart did skip a beat when he came knocking on his door so early in the morning lol. But I would've liked if he didn't sexual harass this little beauty...I just hope he wasn't involved in the killing of his mom.
Idk, I like the crazy one and the second lead is so handsome but I get the feeling he will go crazier in the future. I hope not...we all know who the little beauty will end up with. I just wanna see some character development. Garon still makes my stomach flip...he is so dangerously hot. Trouble! Trouble! Trouble!!
This love triangle is noice.
