I came to check out this story after reading “If you Hate Me So”, the other story by this author. Because even though I don’t think the story was bad, the ratings were low and the comments were so critical of it. At the end of that manwha, one of the couples (Hye-sun and Dojin) don’t really get a happy end. But then I saw comments praising this manhwa, and that this story was where the characters have a happy ending, so I decided to give it a try.
The ratings and the praise for this manhwa is very high, so I was really looking forward to it. Especially bc soo many people hated “If You Hate Me So” and I rather liked it. So I was slightly disappointed. The main reason for hate in “If you Hate Me So”, at least as far as I know, was due to the rape of the uke in the beginning. That was something I hated too, but I also hate to say that it wasn’t that surprising to me since it is normal in yaoi manga. That definitely doesn’t make it okay, but if you’ve been reading it for a while, as I have, it’s just not that shocking. (They really should stop making stories with that though.)
SO imagine my surprise when the same thing happens here?? I thought: “there is no way that all the people complaining and hating on the other story because of the rape, are loving this??” But I was so curious bc let alone those comments, this manwha has been popular and viral for a long time, I just never got around to reading it. So I thought I just had to finish it. Because there must be something redeeming about this story. The love must be so epic that it’s making everyone not upset about the start of their relationship.
This story was not my cup of tea to put it nicely. Till the end I found not one thing nice about their love story. EXCEPT for the baby (SO CUTE!) Everything about their love felt one sided and forced on the uke, he did get slightly better at the end but was still so mean? I mean I guess valid considering how their relationship started, but then just don’t be that person at all?? Idk I just like to feel the love in a LOVE STORY?? This is no hate to anyone. The author did an amazing job and everyone has their preferences. Which is why I must say, I loved “If you Hate Me So” way more.
I wanted to like this bc the plot didn’t seems so bad and the art is amazing but…
It was really difficult for me to feel immersed in the story. I tried really hard to like the uke but he was irritating. I wanted him to solve something himself but he kept making bad decisions and getting into trouble. He needed the seme’s help every time and had the attitude of a 12 year old. Starting from the beginning when he couldn’t ACT as his boyfriend?! That had me pissed off and it didn’t get better. Also, I was scrolling past every sex scene as it made me uncomfortable. Why did it feel like r*pe every time? Not once did it seem like the uke enjoyed it and the seme never stopped! I didn’t understand the strong emotions they claimed to have for one another. I wish I could I appreciate this more, but honestly I was just reading to get through it.
This is really cute and wholesome. However… something about it makes it hard to follow the story. And I am confused about the timeline sometimes. And it was difficult for me to distinguish the characters at one point Don’t take this the wrong way though bc I do love their relationship. And this is a good story! So if you read the summary and other comments and it sounds interesting, I would definitely recommend giving it a read!!

I read this first a while ago, and gave it a low rating. After finding the first one and rereading this one, I gave it a much better rating.
It’s been a long while since I’ve read a manga that has gotten to me like this. I cried, I laughed, I smiled.. and I stayed up all night to finish it . This was amazing and I will be thinking about this manga for a long time.
One thing that I was upset about, PERSONALLY, was the father situation. He was really abusive, mean, and scary. And I hate how she had to be the one to reach out to him and understand him?? On that regard, even though I liked the mom at the end, if I am getting mad at the father then it’s only right that I get mad at her to since she was a bystander and didn’t do more to protect her daughter.
The dad really made me angry when he was blaming Shizu considering SHE DIDN’T ASK TO BE BORN IN THE FIRST PLACE! If you bring a life in this world you need to be prepared to love them no matter what ailments they have. He was just a sicko when he raised good hands on her… but I digress
This was still a wonderful story and I would recommend it in a heart beat. MUST READ!
