Wait, there's no smut? Then why is it labelled as yaoi and not shounen ai Either way thanks!

yea i know
i was hoping thered be smut but there is not 19+ warning so

although it may be vague enough not to require a warning, my fave manhwa has some sexual scenes but also doesnt have a warning on bomtoon so maybe theres some smut? idk

I'm sure there is some, it just may be subtle.

ok no i just bought all raws and nope, no smut (╥﹏╥)

damn whyyy

You can do it,this first cap was posted back in 2019, I doubt they are continuing this

Omg plz do

Please dooo.. I think they already dropped this

No no. Uke the one who put the drug because he can’t handle his feelings FIRST. But uke don’t know what happened that night AFTER he put the drug. So it’s the uke fault here. Let just say karma for him ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Uke hates the seme for his existence ( seme is famous and good actor before) so at a party he hire someone to put drugs on the seme apartment. The uke on the other hand got overdose on the same drugs, the seme thought he is the reason for the overdose and he got jailed or something (his popularity fade). FF. Everything that the seme suffered is caused by the uke. FF. The seme directed a movie and the uke invested in that movie, turns out the movie is not gonna turn out well, it is also planned by the uke. The uke knew that this would happen. He goes to the seme apt to see him suffer. After seeing the seme all fucked up, the uke realize that he doesnt want to see the seme as a mess (for all of his doing) anymore. So he said "Im here to comfort u" . That moment the uke decided to bury the truth. But karma is a bitch! I think the uke deserve this

Thank you for this

I think ur opinion is very much just on the surface observation,have u forgotten that it's not just yuri who is the "bad guy" here ,jiri too isn't pure ,in the starting chapters he kissed yuri without consent and also at ch 23 he had sex with yuri without consent and even called his lover's name right while having sex with yuri , isn't that too unbelievably disrespectful on jiri's part considering he is the older one here out of the two ,but I agree yuri acts like brat too but it's not ONLY him who is wrong

Also about "bad boy abuses his love interest" I'd like u to realise that this manhwa is way too far better and realistic than bs fluffy yaoi with no plot and only one dimensional characters so if u r in for only fluff this ain't for u ,also about the characters ,both yuri and jiri aren't the shade of white or black ,they both have flaws and are equally at fault ,we can see the streak of grey in both of them it's cause their character is written so well and executed with precision making it realistic unlike some of the absurd yaoi characters,so they both r equally at fault and responsible for the current messed up situation and having read the past ch ,it's vividly clear that both have forced each other sexually so u can't say that oh yuri is assaulting jiri in this chapter nor that only jiri was responsible for what happened in ch 23 ,they both r attracted towards each other and the line of forcing the other is very blur due to this ,so in conclusion stop putting the blame on just one of them cause if u have read thoroughly then it would be clear to u that it's not just one of them who is at fault ,it's BOTH OF THEM !!

teach has been and is still getting mistreated by yuri and yes he has abused him in return, but this was my criticism of yuri. i never said that teach is "an innocent cinnamon roll uwu" or anything. also i never said that yuri was the bad guy and that hes the only one in the wrong, bc there is no villain in this story. i never said that teach is a good person, he is mostly in the grey area as is yuri (also in ch 23 he was extremely drunk)

and yuri absolutely fits the stereotype, like r u kidding? of course he isnt black or white, nothing/no one truly is, but that doesnt change the fact that hes a "bad boy who abuses his love interest", bc he is! of course he has a personality but he still! fits! the! stereotype! he is a "bad boy" and he is an asshole and that doesnt subtract from his character but it still is a widely used archetype

(we can use an example to explain this better to u, hyesung from 'love is an illusion' and jaerim from 'never understand' both fit the "oblivious airhead uke" archetype, and yet jaerim is a determined and amiable guy that never gives up on helping his friends, and hyesung is a childish but actually smart guy that doesnt let his unfortunate situation get him down. they both fit the stereotype, but are ultimately more than that)

i could do a deep dive into his character but that wasnt the point i was trying to make. i understand that yuri is ultimately a complicated and nuanced character, yet in my eyes that doesnt make his actions somehow ok. he acts with malice towards teach and all i was trying to portray was MY OWN OPINION which is: im getting tired of it. so far theres been minimal to no character development in both of them and the arguments are repeating at this point. the manhwa is not only boring and unrealistic, but its also ruining the supposed most important part of it = the main characters' relationship. i simply cant root for their romance anymore.

also as a footnote: theres nothing wrong with liking "bs fluffy yaoi with no plot and only one dimensional characters". those stories can be extremely entertaining and uplifting.

also im not here just for fluff, i love angst much more tbh (angst thats well done of course). usually the best of stories out there maintain a careful balance between getting too edgy and still making you care about the characters and what happens to them but unfortunately not this one i guess

i was hoping that author would keep up making good manhwa after 'for your love' but i guess i set my expectations too high ╮(￣▽￣)╭
