I knew they wouldn't end up together but this ending is way too open, like author made Siwoo into a rapist for no real development??? (He is a rapist by the way considering Dohyeok was passed out when Siwoo was putting in all those sex toys) Like Dohyeok changing??? Apologizing to Suha??? Dude got gangraped and that's never addressed?????? No therapy???????????? He just gonna wrap a scarf and get over it???? Like damn this story opens up a lot of dark themes and doesn't address them well
I completely agree with you ...now my last hope is that we may get something in side story of main couple..i hope theses things get addressed and resolved
Yeah honestly I don't think people are pissed off mainly that Siwoo and Dohyeok didn't get together, because we've had BL where the main couple broke up at the end and the backlash wasn't as big. This one was mid because it opened up a lot of things - Dohyeok being gangraped and his trauma as someone who himself did so (pressured Suha), Siwoo having some feelings for the guy who abused his closest friend, the gangrape itself - and closed none of them well.
The only thing it barely closed was that Siwoo rejected Dohyeok, which in itself is fine, but Siwoo can't suddenly take the moral high ground at the end of it all when he raped Dohyeok as well.
Agree the side stories were so unnecessary with all this
I agree ...i was kind of 50-50 whether they will get happy ending or not becoz of lots of ups and down
“What’s not to like about me” A lot. Dohyeok, you’re my babygirl, but there’s a shit ton of things to not like about you boy tf you mean
haha i can't believe he had the audacity to say that
I really like the development of their friendship. Haejoon was kind to Eunyoung at the start (stayed in the dorms with him when he had the chance to transfer, despite the shit Eunyoung pulled on him) — he did this only out of the goodness of his own heart, not at all because he cared about Eunyoung as Eunyoung. If it was any other person, Haejoon would have done the same.
Eunyoung saw that and began to grow attached to Haejoon. Eunyoung cared for Haejoon because it was Haejoon. But Haejoon continued caring for Eunyoung because Haejoon was by nature a good person. Their ways of loving and caring for one another was like this, unbalanced for most of the story **until recently**.
Eunyoung from the early days did things for Haejoon because it was Haejoon and he liked Haejoon. Sure, making food for him was to repay Haejoon for not leaving him alone in the old haunted dorms. But he beat up the bullies, tried to get along with Haejoon, stayed up to make sure Haejoon wouldn’t run out of the house when Haejoon was hallucinating his mother, and tagged along with him even though he had his own friends — in the Stealing arc, Haejoon even brings this up that he doesn’t really like Eunyoung hanging out with him and Juwan, and doesn’t get why Eunyoung hangs out with them.
In the arc where Haejoon goes to his Uncle’s house, Eunyoung mentions in the car that he’s not really interested in going to Juwan’s house on his own without Haejoon. In the arc where Juwan wants to be close to Haejoon but Haejoon seems to avoid him (and it’s revealed he’s awkward and feels bad to Juwan’s mother showing him love), Juwan told Haejoon that Eunyoung won’t hang out with them unless Haejoon is there, which turns out true (which is funny because Eunyoung is awkward with Haejoon after their Chuseok fight).
For most of it, Haejoon cared for Eunyoung because he was just a kind person at heart. But since the Chuseok arc I think Haejoon began to also grow attached to Eunyoung, and he now cares for Eunyoung specifically because it’s Eunyoung. These newest chapters especially show it. He minds his words, doesn’t use violence, and thinks about Eunyoung’s home situation.
A+ relationship. I don’t consider it purely as a friendship, not for romantic reasons (I’m open to this though), but that their relationship is very complex to cover under friendship. Especially on Eunyoung’s side, he’s notably attached to Haejoon more than to any of his friends.
TL;DR Their relationship has been mostly unbalanced till recently. Eunyoung cares for Haejoon because it’s Haejoon and he likes Haejoon. Haejoon cares for Eunyoung largely because Haejoon is a good person at heart, not because he likes Eunyoung (understandably).
But since their Chuseok fight I think Haejoon has grown to be attached to Eunyoung. Now he cares for Eunyoung just because Haejoon is nice, but because it’s Eunyoung.
Ngl, this makes me tear up a bit :"))...
Thats how you know hes a real one
I like the prequel. It's good and gives more context to the story and is good story writing, and I felt the first season actually lacked info so readers ended up confused.
It's sad some people are just poor readers, they lack patience, don't care about plot quality and just want to see boys fucking. Hopefully as those readers go away (cross fingers they don't annoyingly stay and complain on every chapter), there'll be more quality discussions about the plot.
People who complain about the plot being long are probably usually used to the smut only or just like short stories. I personally am delighted with such a complete story like this one. This manwha has everything: interesting elements, an appealing theme, feelings, sex, drama, tragedy, a bit of comedy, historical setting, contemporary setting, beautiful art, four main characters, character development, and it’s going for a fourth season. I can’t ask for more especially when I grew attached to it. I wish it wouldn’t end.
FIRST OFF, Hyeonjin giving off lowkey yandere vibes with how he's being very clingy but it's not out of character for him to be obsessing over Jaewoo. After all, Jaewoo is his first actual source of comfort and someone he can rely on/someone who takes care of him, so not out of the blue that he's obsessive.
SECONDLY..... ARE YOU GUYS NUTS? How's Hyeonjin the same level of toxicity as Mujin? Mujin nearly killed Jaewoo by strangling him! Look he's fun to read and only because he's fictional that I'm happy to read his and Jaewoo's relationship but guys, don't delude yourselves. Mujin is trash and would kill Jaewoo someday if he ain't careful. But okay he's handsome trash who I still wanna see for many chapters lol.
exactly
Maxi with Riftan is a perfect couple. Let me just take Ruth out of the picture for you guys. I'll volunteer to be his wife.
I want sir Nirta to be my husband.
I am so tired of every woman showing up and being some tyrannical villainess while there’s a growing squad of filthy rich and super popular hot studs who somehow all love the plain Jane protagonist. Oh Holy, the author’s other manga, was so good, but this one? It’s turning more and more into a self-insert “I’m so plain, but all the boys love me and all the girls hate me for it” trainwreck of a fanfic.
Wow- that was surprisingly accurate :0
i dont see how its that way other than the fact that theyre all falling for her
its more centred towards the characters lives than anything
The author of Oh holy is just adapting this to a webtoon and its not her work
makes sense since it's supposed to be a light novel world
Eunyoung saying he sees Haejoon’s Mom in him… From the start when Haejoon chose to stay in the dorm so Eunyoung wouldn’t be left alone with ghosts despite how Eunyoung hurt and mocked him, Eunyoung knew he was a good person.
My own feeling behind Eunyoung asking Haejoon if he has siblings is that he sees Haejoon as his family. I think he might be kind of happy that Haejoon doesn’t have siblings since it means that he will always be one of the closest to Haejoon.
