Everyone seems disappointed at the ending. Maybe it is author’s first work it can be bit lacking. But isn’t it interesting to end it as it and just imagine ourselves about the ending. It is open ended.
Maybe since mc will end up with his secretary in the end or ml will love him everyone can think of their own version.
Mangas with open ending tended to be in reader’s mind longer than satisfying ending.
My review regarding manga:
Because of his obsession to be superior and successful ml ended up wanting to crash Mc and over time seemed to want to control him. But in my point view he doesn’t love Mc that much he just have mental. Also Mc kind of get his retribution. He shouldn’t take care of his own body that way because of success. It is shortcut and shortcut always has risk. He would have fucked up sooner or later even without Ml. He should have stopped his actions before it is too late and maybe get together with sincere secretary. He ruined his life himself. His background info is lacking. He seemed to hit wall trying to make business and some guys interested in his body and humiliated him and he learned to use his body. He himself doesn’t like to sleep around either. He might have been using others to relieve his psychological pressure. (By playing with inferior people or comforting himself with another guy after rough intercourse with geezers)
He doesn’t look happy at all and I am not why would he sacrifice his body and mind this way. Maybe wanting to be successful is in the nature of man. Men tended to want higher positions and bear their psychological pressure unlike woman.
After seeing the cover I thought small boy was uke and after reading the summary I thought there is 50% chances of big boy being the uke.
But after seeing first chapter’s train scene I was sure that uke was big boy. Such a treasure there is rarely ever small uke...(but I am sure he will somehow grow up or get rid of his baby face someday. Too bad,..)
People keep saying how seme is trash and Stockholm syndrome is no good but i like it. I like creepy semes who is real trash and possessive. Also since it is fiction why bother it. Just enjoy it or if you can’t find another manga. It is kind a disappointing to read such comments after finishing chapter.
I always tear up when ukes say lines like “I have never heard someone love me” or “I have never....”
it kind make my heart shatter.
Three main characters are all had their own story and they are equally sad and horrible story. I think main couple’s end was nice but Yoon never really found his happiness or reached his goal at least. I am so sad. He is not bad person it is just environment he was raised was hard that he seemed to make wrong decisions time to time and kind of an bad. At the very least if he managed to get his revenge or so. He seems like the type to reminisce about uke for the rest of his life but would bury it deep in his heart so he can move on somehow. Also that woman he seemed to try to get along and go along with the situation. It seemed like he will make up with the woman but in the manga his eyes and expression looked so dead. I feel so much regret...he doesn’t deserve this much of a tragic life.
At first I always thought ‘Oh, Chae Ha In my girl you have got no chance your man only interested in leveling up..’ at first. [Spoiler alert! Please major spoiler! Major! Please don’t read it ... I warned you guess....I just wrote the comment to express my feelings....]
They ended up marrying and even have a son....god bless them....
And hell shall take me in since I always shipped JinWoo with JinHo.
