This story has been extremely compelling since it began. But now that the truth is out, I can't help but feel like it's time to wrap up this life and move on to the next life.

Seeing Mugyeong be tortured for a crime he didn't commit is painful and exhausting. I don't want him to die, but I don't think he'll ever have happiness in this life. I think the author is doing a FANTASTIC job and I'm not complaining about the story to this point. I just want to see those two cute kids being happy together in a world/time that is more accepting.

This guy is becoming more of a red flag with each passing chapter. I'm putting this on hold because rape feels inevitable and I don't want to read that. Hopefully it doesn't happen, I'll check back in a month or so.

My heart is broken. I knew this was coming, but all I want is for them to be happy together and safe.

It's kinda 50/50 on whether he'll get raped AGAIN. Or maybe 80/20 since it just keeps happening. *sigh* I should have dropped this years ago!

Can anyone tell me if this story includes rape? It looks really cute, but I hate reading sexual assault, so I'm not sure if I should start this one.

The storyline of the 2 actors and their ugly dogs are the only things keeping me even slightly interested in this manhua. The main characters, including the kids have been uninteresting for at least 100 chapters. The brothers' storyline is creepy and gross. And the managers of the actors should have been fired a long time ago.

I'd be fine with this manhua ending and a short side story focused on the actors. But this story will probably keep going for another 50 years.

Can someone tell me which chapter the twins appear for the first time?

I just wish that he's been secretly alive, somewhere in hiding. Waiting for the real attempted killer to reveal himself. Then those two adorable kids can live happily ever after! I know it won't happen, but a girl can dream

This is one of the few yaois I've read where I prefer the characters when they're wearing clothes. The sex scenes are laughably over the top. And the nipples, omg why!?!?!?!

Jung-heon behaves more like a dad than a partner. I hope Dan doesn't back down this time.

I'm going to miss Gren. I think he deserved better and it's hard for me to stay invested in the story at this point

Damn that was painful. Seo Juheon's rage filled eyes broke my heart. I hope this gets resolved quickly.

I really wanted Gren to survive. I'm less invested in the story now that he's gone ╥﹏╥

At this point, it's obvious that Ilic wants to be there. Otherwise, he would have killed himself a long time ago.

I absolutely loved this story up until chapter 44. Both characters felt realistic and then the writer had to hit us with the laziest most over used yaoi/BL cliché, STUDY ABOARD! Then I immediately lost interest in their relationship and my frustration with Doha increased with every new chapter.

Instead of having them go on a break, grow a bit, then finally admit their feelings to each other honestly. The writer decided to cop out and steal 5 years of their relationship. Even though neither seemed to grow or change in any meaningful way during the 5 year separation. I get why writers use this trope, but I hate it. I also hate that their entire relationship was based in Doha's whims and mood swings. Woohyun pretty much was coerced into the relationship in the beginning, then as his feelings started to grow towards Doha, Doha just left and wouldn't even talk to him on the phone. Then he comes back and treats Woohyun like a joke. Woohyun obviously and justifiably has abandonment issues and Doha doesn't even consider that.

I really regret reading it and those extra chapters didn't make me like it anymore.

These days there is nothing more predictable in Korean yaois than an author taking a story that starts off sweet and turning it into a rape or non-consent fest. Either almost every seme in the country is too stupid or evil understand that "no", "please stop" and "it hurts" are not the words of someone who is enjoying the sex. Or the writers and publishers think that that behavior is acceptable/normal and wait readers want.

Either way, it's a shame that this keeps happening. Miserable painful sex, is not something that should be normalized in fiction or irl. But I can understand it in stories about pschyo characters or torture porn. But when you have chibis and romance one second and violent pounding while the other guy thinks he's going to die in the next, it's clearly wrong. Anyone defending it shows that their views of "normal sexual relationships" are also questionable. Hardcore and raunchy sex can be a nice experience for both people, that's not what many authors of kyaois are writing these days and that's so sad.
