if i remember correctly, somewhere down the line (way past after the duel) the church decides to attack shuri while she's in the carriage (just like they did in the first life) except she's w rachel this time. Someone tells Nora and Jeremy about it, Jeremy stays behind to lead people to fight (? i think this is during a Civil war) and Nora and Elias both go after Shuri and Rachel. They end up saving them two, something something, church gets caught, and Richelieu gets caught and killed by Jeremy while he was trying to poison himself.
No worries, we're still pretty far. I think we're just about halfway done from the main story. And theres a slight difference from novel and manhwa, manhwa having more depth to the story and each characters have a bit more personality than in the novel. I'm sure ORKA is gonna make that scene a whole lot better and satisfying :)
Made this a a reply to someone, but posting this again so more people who are interested can read it (ć„ ̄ ³ ̄)ć„
Novel spoilers ahead!
Starting from where chapter 43 leaves off (its been a week since I last read the novel so some details might be left out of proper naming, sorry), His arm was actually fractured because of Yohan so he has to wear a cast for about 3 months. Once Jun returns to class, As he opens the door to enter, Yohan is actually leaving as well, as Jun explains it "There was a strange malice in his eyes. It reached into some deep-rooted fear inside me. My mouth went dry. Yohan brushed past, shoulder bumping against mine. The gesture carried a dear sense of displeasure. That was when I realizedā I was discarded. " Other students start picking up on that, and start harassing Jun. Yohan moves desk and stops eating lunch with and Jun and Jun just stays at his desk studying all day.
One time, nasty names and such were written on Juns desk, he goes to grab some rubbing alcohol and napkins to take it off, he finds that someone else had already done it for him, a half Korean half American student called Shin Jaehyun. From then Jun kinda takes an interest in him. From the looks of it, he was set up to be the second male lead. From Juns later evaluation of him, Shin Jaehyun is a nice smart guy but a coward. A person who tries to be nice because he doesn't trouble in his school life.
There are also small incidents of small things being thrown at him. The students who hang around Jun are Lee Seokhyun, Kim Minho, and Oh Yeonjun, theyāre not exactly buddies, but not exactly enemies. If anything, they try to be nosy with Jun.
Go Yohan also starts to worsen things as sometimes he says things to drag Jun in the mud and humiliate him, Like saying "Kang Jun, stopping ruining the class vibe, will you? I'm trying to study and you're fucking my mood." Worse, Jun wasn't even speaking, it was the other guys. One thing as well, he stops calling Jun "Jun" and starts calling him Kang Jun.
The same day at lunch, Shin Jaehyun gives Kang Jun an egg sandwich as he noticed all Jun was eating for lunch was bread. Every time Jaehyun is mentioned, I'm pretty sure they always mention how American he is. (His nickname is "Yankee" lmaoo).
That day, Jun's shoes gets stolen, or rather people threw his outdoor shoes away and as he walked home in his indoor slippers, he realizes he stepped in glass and also needed stitches for that. It's insinuated that people had put glass in his sippers.
The day after, in P.E. they were playing soccer, which Jun had to sit out of because of his injuries, the ball was kicked to him and hit him straight in the face. Jun gives Yohan one more chance and straight up BEGS Yohan to say something, āGo Yohan, Please...,ā but Yohan says nothing and the bullying gets a bit worse. Jun starts to straight up resent Go Yohan from there.
The day after during Lunch, Go Yohan sits next Kang Jun and starts being hella annoying, asking him where he's eating and stuff, and Jun responds like, yeah sorry I've been studying and plus im hurt, which is obviously lies, Yohan responds āyou never said that?" and the whole situation is embarrassing for Jun. Yohan gives him an egg sandwich, seemingly jealous from Shin Jaehyun the other day. Jun says he doesn't want it and in result Yohan slaps him, a slap between a joke and something serious, enough for it to hurt.
The next day at lunch, Yohan buys him the bread Jun has been eating at lunch. Jun refuses and Yohan keeps insisting and he ends up giving up and starts smearing the bread (which has a chocolate filling) over Juns workbook. Jun isnāt having it and throws his workbook away. As Jun tries to leave, Yohan yanks him back inside the classroom and starts going on about why are you ignoring me, and when I speak to you, you answer and blah blah blah, and instead of entertaining Yohan, Jun just says āThis is over isn't it? i thought we'd go back to being strangers" and to cut it short he's just saying that heāll live in solidarity and asks Yohan to leave him alone. Yohan, having a short temper, throws a chair to the floor Yohan starts saying shit like āyouāre doing this on purpose right? You actually want to be close again but youāre pride wonāt let you,ā Jun fires back, āyou were the one that said this was over, why are you clinging like youāre regretting it?ā And at that Yohan freezes. Jun takes it as a sign to escape.
Jun runs into Jaehyun in the hallway, and in an attempt to comfort Jun, he takes him to the art room (Jaehyun is the president of the art club). He tries to comfort Jun again and gives him yogurt. Jun tells him, ādonāt cross the line.ā Jaehyun then talks about his time in America and opens up about his bullying. In an attempt to make Jun laugh, he even makes a racist joke.
The next day, Jun stuff snacks into his bag for lunch. He leaves a bit early as because of his injuries, he takes a taxi. As he leaves, it turns out (the psycho) Yohan was waiting for him and tells him āletās talkā. He drags Jun into the alley between their houses. As Yohan talks about making up, Jun is entirely focused on the arm on his shoulder. It seems he has developed slight PTSD from chapter 42. He tells Yohan, āokay but can we talk without you touching me?ā And Yohan scoffs and says āyou think Iām still into you? I only want to make up because my father likes you.ā Jun then responds by saying, āI donāt want to, canāt we just act like we donāt know each other and go our separate ways. You can tell your dad we made up i donāt care.ā Juns taxi arrives, so he attempts to leave, but Yohan drags him back and starts saying āWho are you gonna cling to now?ā And goes on. He gets interrupted by Juns taxi driver and Juns makes a quick escape.
Later that day, Jun goes to the scrapyard (after he got kicked by the soccer ball, he met ha taesan in the infirmary and he tells Jun the stuff in the scrapyard gets incinerated on Friday), and he runs into Hong Huijun. One of Junwooās ex-lackies and seemingly new leader of that friend group. They start shit talking, and eventually things get physical. Not because Jun did anything, theyāre just bullying him. Jun is really extremely fed up with his school life, so he actually fights back and beats the shit outta his ass. Apparently he had broken the guys nose. He uses the advice Go Yohan had told him before hand in earlier chapters to win.
Jun knocks out and then he finds himself in the hospital. His parents had flown back from their business trip and his mom raised hell about school violence and even got Huijun expelled. As he looks around, he finds Yohan sleeping on couch in his hospital room. Eventually, the two start talking and Yohan starts with his āletās make upā crap, and Jun, fed up and exhausted, just gives in for a smooth rest of the year.
When Jun returns, things go back to semi normal. Many times, Yohan will act like Jun isnāt there the moment Jun acts like he doesnāt want him too, and when he does, as a reward, he protects and defends Jun like before. Yohan has mood swings I swear. Jun still very much hates Yohan, but he just toughs it out, as he plans to drop him after Highschool.
Jun goes to the hospital for a check up and as a way to skip and not see Yohan, he just goes around and about and bumps into Kim Minho. Kim Minho and Jun talk, and Kim Minho tells him, āHey, letās take down Go Yohan and end his reign, I have a plan.ā June, is not really interested, but plays along and asks him what it is and Minho tells him, āConfess to Go Yohan, Iāll record it and embarrass him and beat the shit out of himā Forgot to mention, but Jun met Shin Jaehyun in the art room where Shin Jaehyun tells Jun there are rumors that Go Yohan likes Jun. Jun isnāt surprised , but heās more surprised about how obvious it is and how many people already have figured it out. Which is why Kim Minho tells Jun to confess to him. Jun tells Minho heāll go along with his plan, but asks him if he can do it after summer break. Minho gets pissed but tells him sure.
During summer break, Jun and his mother go to Go Yohanās house as his mother offered to give Jun and his mom advice for college. Jun goes to the restroom and runs into Go Yohans sister, Go Rosah. Then Rosah reveals everything. That Yohan is a fucking liar. He lied about everything, about his family being homophobic and such. Even tells him the reason why their father likes Jun is because they can dump Yohan on him.
Break ends and Minho is telling him to do it now. Jun tells Yohan to meet him in the Music room later. Jun waits for Yohan in the music room, Minho hides behind a curtain and is recording everything. Yohan actually believes that Jun is about to confess his feelings, itās noted that his ears are red. PLOT TWIST! Jun tells Yohan about Minhos plan and tells him where he is hiding. Yohan starts beating Minho up. Jun tells Go Yohan to stop because he doesnāt want to get caught up in a school violence incident again. Go Yohan just tells him to leave and makes a phone call to Lee Seokhyun and leave Jun did.
After that. Jun just lives mundanely, he just studies most of the time and such for the entrance exam. He starts making plans to ensure he doesnāt see Go Yohan again. Instead of applying to Business in Korea University like he told to everyone, he applied to the department of political science. He doesnāt plan to tell Go Yohan. And of course he gets accepted and heās extremely happy to the point he cries.
By coincidence, Shin Jaehyun and Kang Jun run into each other in the city. Just before this Jun had told Yohan he was at home. They talk and Jaehyun mentions rumors, and Jun questions how āthose rumorsā (the ones of go Yohan being gay) were able to calm down. Jaehyun asks him āYou donāt know?ā And Shin Jaehyun reveals a photo went around. (This is were I went crazy, I swear my jaw dropped. Go Yohan is a sick bastard, heās insane). Jaehyun says it was a picture of Kim Minho and Lee Seokhyun KISSING IN THE MUSIC ROOM. (Thatās why he called Lee Seokhyun. When I tell you I was sick to my stomach.) itās obvious to everyone that it was forced because Jaehyun mentions how they both were crying in the photo and how bloody Kim Minho was. Jun likes Jaehyun as just a friend and has given up on making him his next crush of sorts.
A little later, Jaehyun and Jun go out to a cafe, just quickly to hang out. And thatās when Yohan spots them. Jaehyun is scared of Yohan, and he goes pale as fuck. Yohan starts acting buddy buddy with Jaehyun and questioning how they met (aka heās mad Jun lied). Heās obviously kinda of tormenting Jaehyun because heās mad and jealous and Jun gets fed up and dumps his coffee on Yohan and yells to him āweāre not friends (Jun and Yohan) leave me tf alone!ā Jun grabs Jaehyun and makes a run for it, but Jaehyun like the coward he is, goes back to aplogize to Go Yohan and Jun is just like āwhateverā
After that, Jun doesnāt go to school for the rest of the year (there's only 2 weeks until graduation at this point). Go Yohan constantly texts and calls him, and Jun blocks him. Once, Go Yohan was infront of his house and Jun tells him to get tf out or heāll call the police (note Go Yohan was intoxicated) and Go Yohan goes on about that everyone at home hates him. Kang Jun is tired of his bullshit and tells him that he is loved and tells him he knows heās fucking lying.
The day of graduation comes and he debates on going, but he ended up going. During the ceremony he bumps into Go Yohan and Jun fucking BOOKS IT. He runs and goes into a classroom where he collects himself and Go Yohan gets in somehow. Go Yohan hugs Juns legs and starts SOBBING, saying āthank you, thank you thank you.ā In a moment of feeling pity for Yohan, Jun kisses him. Iām pretty sure it was a quick peck. The scene is memorable because Jun says, āSurprisingly, my first kiss didnāt taste like lemon or lime; it tasted salty and wet.ā And he leaves for home, and Iām guessing he didnāt go through the whole ceremony because itās mentioned later he didnāt pick up his diploma.
When he returns home, he packs up immediately and heads for he U.S., where his parents are, and leaves his phone behind.
After winter break ends, he comes back from the U.S. and heads to his dorm. He applied for a dorm while he was there and even bought a new phone. Once he comes back, he notes that the other side of it is empty, so he hopes maybe he doesnāt have a roommate. ER ER WRONGGGG. Later after all his lectures end and heās in his room debating whether he should get dinner, he heads out and when he opens his door , he finds GO YOHAN outside the door, and as it turns out, Yohan is his roommate. Last time Jaehyun and Jun hung out, Jun said heāll never see Yohan again, and Jaehyun basically said ānever say neverā. Yeah, Jun thinks he pulled some shit off but it was entirely coincidence.
Go Yohan, is extremely confused. He actually never thought heād see Jun again. Jun rushes to his room and locks the door. Apparently the doors have some keypads because Go Yohan is able to unlock it and he says āThey tell you to change the password once you settle in.ā Go Yohan tells Jun that he really wonāt do anything this time. Yohan is more docile, and more obedient, exactly like a dog. They talk and Jun realizes Go Yohan doesnāt have this rosary. Go Yohan tells Jun he doesnāt believe in God anymore and heās just a bastard because he never granted his prayers when it came to Jun.
Later, I donāt exactly know how it happens, but Jun runs into Minho. Minho starts lashing out on him because of what happened, and tells Jun if he drinks out of the soju bottle heāll forgive him. Jun refuses, he knows there is something wrong with it. Well turns out he was right because Minho gets pissed and spills the water, but apparently Yohan was nearby and jumps in between Minho and Jun. turns out it was fucking ACID and it burns Yohana right shoulder and his clothes and skin starts melting.
In the hospital, Jun is in Yohans room. Of course, Go Yohans parents show up, signing off on surgeries and skin grafts. Eventually, itās just Yohans father and Jun in the room. They have a conversation, and Jun asks him, āDo you love your son?ā, he responds āOf course I do. I rank him second.ā Jun (doesnāt say it but he thinks it) calls it bullshit and how messed it up it is to rank his children.
Later, Jun goes to Go Yohans house to collect some of Yohans things, like clothes and games for entertainment, and he runs into Rosah, again. She reveals to him that after the day Jun blocked him, Yohan went absolutely insane. He started bugging others about Jun, even bugging the teachers. He was completely desperate. He went to church, prayed and eventually threw a tantrum and loudly exclaimed āfuck uā to God and went as far as ripping his rosary apart in church. Jun is just like āwtfā and Rosah points out that his face it red. Rosah teases him, not even playfully, straight up confused on how that could get Jun to go red. To shut her up, Juns her āwhy did u lie to me? Ur father said Yohans second.ā And go Rosah was completely confused, responding āhuh? He told me I was⦠second..ā thatās when Jun learns, yeah Yohans father is fucked up and a liar, and promptly leaves.
In the hospital, Jun and Yohan talk. Itās chapter 20, the last chapter of the novel, and itās called āGo Yohans Religionā. Go Yohan just says āIām atheist now, youāre more useful than the guy up in the sky.ā Essentially, Yohan is saying that heāll belive in Jun, and that Jun is his new religion. Jun doesnāt believe him, so he tells him āIāll show you.ā Go Yohan kneels to the ground, grabs Juns foot, and slowly starts kissing his feet and goes up from there. And thatās where it ends. Itās assumed they made out because in the side stories, Go Yohan asks Jun if āthey could do what they did in the hospitalā and they made out.
I havenāt read all the side stories yet! But Iām almost done (schools got me busy). In the side stories, itās just a small continuation of their life. Jun and Yohan arenāt exactly together or friends. They dont have sex right away actually. They first actually just rub their dicks together, and Yohan later fucks Jun in between his thighs. Not until a few chapters later, they actually do have sex. Thatās where Jun, in a delirious state from the pleasure, ends up confessing to Yohan and telling him thatās heās actually liked him since high school.
If you get anything from the story, Yohan is just a complete sociopath, with a messed up home life. You can tell the children of the Go house value their fatherās opinion, which was why he was really angry when Jun pulled that stunt in the dining room. Go Rosah mentions that Yohan really treasured his rosary as it was a gift from their father, when he ripped it apart she was completely stunned. The children seek nothing but validation of their father. Yohan says he likes Jun because the two are similar, and he never elaborates further.
And thatās it! Hope you guys enjoyed! this actually took absurdly too long to write lmao. As i wrote this, I actually was supposed to study for my midterm, my sister told me "You're more dedicated to spoiling rather than studying, huh?" "Well, yes. I enjoy this more than school."

Youāre welcome! To answer your questions, Yohan tells Jun he likes him because āthe two of them are similar.ā I think it might be referring to both of them being gay, but he never actually elaborates further. Itās never explained why he lied to Jun in the first place. I do have a few guesses from my time reading the novel; Iām pretty sure itās because heās just a pathological liar and he wanted Jun to feel bad and stay with him. For example, when Go Rosah reveals the truth about Yohan never actually being the familyās out cast, Jun points out how Yohan prepared food himself and how he did his own laundry but Go Rosah counterās back saying those are basic life skills, why shouldnāt he know how to do that? Because Jun and Yohan are rich, of course they have maids that could do that, so Yohan used these skills to victimize himself and get Jun to feel bad and have Jun stay with him.
Itās never explained why he does things like this. I do have a few guesses from my time reading the novel; Iām pretty sure itās because he wanted Jun to feel bad and stay with him. A way to trap Jun in a way. And it works, Jun feels pity for him. When Go Rosah reveals the truth about Yohan never actually being the familyās out cast, Jun points out how Yohan prepared food himself and how he did his own laundry but Go Rosah counterās back saying those are basic life skills, why shouldnāt he know how to do that? Because Jun and Yohan are rich, of course they have maids that could do that, so Jun never questions not knowing how to do simple things. Yohan used these skills to victimize himself and get Jun to feel bad and have Jun stay with him.
Go Yohan is known to be a pathological lair. When Jun was in the hospital after his fight and Yohan was there to make up and stuff and they end up talking. The topic about college comes up and Jun tells Yohan heās heard he was going abroad. Yohan tells him he isnāt and that heāll for sure get into Korea University because of his diverse bloodline. He starts saying that his grandparents are Roman from his dads side and how his one of his grandparents from his moms side is from The U.S or U.K (I donāt remember). Jun is surprised which causes Go Yohan to admit that he made that up and says that itās true that he was born in the U.S.
Going back to when Yohan suddenly sat next to Jun and was questions where and what he was eating and what heās been up too, when Jun lies about having told Yohan that heād be busy studying, Yohan grins and tells him that clumsy lies arenāt good lies and that he should be more confident because itāll make it more believable. He tells Jun that he knows best because he good at telling lies.
Thank you so much for sharing! I think I have gotten some sort of closure from this as I was ready to move on. However I wished they showed more of Taesan, he is probably the only person I think that deserves happiness in all of this. I also wished that they gave Jun the chance to turn over a new leaf where him and Taesan become actual friends. Also good luck on your exams!
Wow after reading that I realized we have such a long way to go I hope they show the character development I honestly like the storyline there itās actually very realistic, he doesnāt just change after very little mistakes like in other manhwas- but it shows how real and scary mental problems affect you and people around you and I really appreciate the author for showing that thank you for the novel spoils!
Honestly, thank you for taking the time to write all of this out. It took me a second to read everything Iām not gonna lie lol. I guess my biggest complaint about the story is that it felt like there was way too much drama for no reason. I feel like a bit of angst here and there keeps things interesting but at the same time, I feel like thereās a lot of back-and-forth for no reason. The author tried too hard to make Yohan out to be a villain. This is giving Dreaming Freedom vibes which, donāt get me wrong, I loved, but this story feels a lot messier. Why make Yohan out to be a bully all of a sudden when he had loved and obsessed over our MC for years and was basically his savior this whole time? Some elements of the story just feel a little bit forced to me and like they were put in here for no reason, but I donāt know if anyone else agrees maybe itās just me.
I want to just thank everyone for their appreciation and say a big Youāre welcome! As absurdly long it took, I enjoyed every second! I feel like I could dedicate myself to reading novels and spoiling for you all hehe (ā§āā¦)
Also huge thanks for everyone rooting for me on my midterm. Though Iām 100% sure I bombed it ā( Tļ¹T )ā

To answer your questions, Yes, Jun becomes like an outcast, but heās not really alone. A few people talk to him, but thatās itās. Yohan does nothing, and quite literally. His lack of action is actually the very reason for Juns bullying and harassment.
Spoilers !!!!!
Starting from where chapter 43 leaves off (its been a week since 1 last read the novel so some details might be left out of proper naming, sorry), His arm was actually fractured because of Yohan so he has to wear a cast for about 3 months. Once Jun returns to class, As he opens the door to enter, Yohan is actually leaving as well, as Jun explains it "There was a strange malice in his eyes.

A person who tries to be nice because he doesn't trouble in his school life.

Then Rosah reveals everything. That Yohan is a fucking liar. He lied about everything, about his family being homophobic and such. Even tells him the reason why their father likes Jun is because they can dump Yohan on him.
Break ends and Minho is telling him to do it now. Jun tells Yohan to meet him in the Music room later. Jun waits for Yohan in the music room, Minho hides behind a curtain and is recording everything. Yohan actually believes that Jun is about to confess his feelings, itās noted that his ears are red. PLOT TWIST! Jun tells Yohan about Minhos plan and tells him where he is hiding. Yohan starts beating Minho up. Anyway, Jun tells Go Yohan to stop because he doesnāt want to get caught up in a school violence incident again. Go Yohan just tells him to leave and makes a phone call to Lee Seokhyun and leave Jun did.
After that. Jun just lives mundanly, he just studies most of the time and such for the entrance exam. He starts making plans to ensure he doesnāt see Go Yohan again. Instead of applying to Business in Korea University like he told to everyone, he applied to the department of political science. He doesnāt plan to tell Go Yohan. And of course he gets accepted and heās extremely happy to the point he cries.
By coincidence, Shin Jaehyun and Kang Jun run into eachother in the city. Just before this Jun had told Yohan he was at home. They talk and Jaehyun mentions rumors, and Jun questions how āthose rumorsā (the ones of go Yohan being gay) were able to calm down. Jaehyun asks him āYou donāt know?ā And Shin Jaehyun reveals a photo went around. (This is were I went crazy, I swear my jaw dropped. Go Yohan is a sick bastard, heās insane). Jaehyun says it was a picture of Kim Minho and Lee Seokhyun KISSING IN THE MUSIC ROOM. (Thatās why he called Lee Seokhyun. When I tell you I was sick to my stomach.) itās obvious to everyone that it was forced because Jaehyun mentions how they both were crying in the photo and how bloody Kim Minho was. Jun likes Jaehyun as just a friend and has given up on making him his next crush of sorts.
A little later, Jaehyun and Jun go out to a cafe, just quickly to hang out. And thatās when Yohan spots them. Jaehyun is scared of Yohan, and he goes pale as fuck. Yohan starts acting buddy buddy with Jaehyun and questioning how they met (aka heās mad Jun lied). Heās obviously kinda of tormenting Jaehyun because heās mad and jealous and Jun gets fed up and dumps his coffee on Yohan and yells to him āweāre not friends (him and Yohan) leave me tf alone!ā Jun grabs Jaehyun and makes a run for it, but Jaehyun like the coward he is, goes back to aplogize to Go Yohan and Jun is just like āwhateverā
After that, Jun doesnāt go to school and ignores. Go Yohan constantly texts and calls him, and Jun blocks him. Once, Go Yohan was infront of his house and Jun tells him to get tf out or heāll call the police (note Go Yohan was intoxicated) and Go Yohan goes on about that everyone at home hates him. Kang Jun is tired of his bullshit and tells him that he is loved and tells him he knows heās fucking lying.
The day of graduation comes and he debates on going, but he ended up going. During the ceremony he bumps into Go Yohan and Jun fucking BOOKS IT. He runs and goes into a classroom where he collects himself and Go Yohan gets in somehow. Go Yohan hugs Juns legs and starts SOBBING, saying āthank you, thank you thank you.ā In a moment of feeling pity for Yohan, Jun kisses him. Iām pretty sure it was a quick peck. The scene is memorable because Jun says, āSurprisingly, my first kiss didnāt taste like lemon or lime; it tasted salty and wet.ā And he leaves for home, and Iām guessing he didnāt go through the whole ceremony because itās mentioned later he didnāt pick up his diploma.
When he returns home, he packs up immediately and heads for he U.S., where his parents are, and leaves his phone behind.
After winter break ends, he comes back from the U.S. and heads to his dorm. He applied for a dorm while he was there and even bought a new phone. Once he comes back, he notes that the other side of it is empty, so he hopes maybe he doesnāt have a roommate. ER ER WRONGGGG. Later after all his lectures end and heās in his room debating whether he should get dinner, he heads out and when he opens his door , he finds GO YOHAN outside the door, and as it turns out, Yohan is his roommate. Last time Jaehyun and Jun hung out, Jun said heāll never see Yohan again, and Jaehyun basically said ānever say neverā. Yeah, Jun thinks he pulled some shit off but it was entirely coincidence.
Go Yohan, is extremely confused. He actually never thought heād see Jun again. Jun rushes to his room and locks the door. Apparently the doors have some keypads because Go Yohan is able to unlock it and he says āThey tell you to change the password once you settle in.ā Go Yohan tells Jun that he really wonāt do anything this time. Yohan is more docile, and more obedient, exactly like a dog. They talk and Jun realizes Go Yohan doesnāt have this rosary. Go Yohan tells Jun he doesnāt believe in God anymore and heās just a bastard because he never granted his prayers when it came to Jun.
Later, I donāt exactly know how it happens, but Jun runs into Minho. Minho starts lashing out on him because of what happened, and tells Jun if he drinks out of the soju bottle heāll forgive him. Jun refuses, he knows there is something wrong with it. Well turns out he was right because Minho gets pissed and spills the water, but apparently Yohan was nearby and jumps in between Minho and Jun. turns out it was fucking ACID and it burns Yohana right shoulder and his clothes and skin starts melting.
In the hospital, Jun is in Yohans room. Of course, Go Yohans parents show up, signing off on surgeries and skin grafts. Eventually, itās just Yohans father and Jun in the room. They have a conversation, and Jun asks him, āDo you love your son?ā, he responds āOf course I do. I rank him second.ā Jun (doesnāt say it but he thinks it) calls it bullshit and how messed it up it is to rank his children.
Later, Jun goes to Go Yohans house to collect some of Yohans things, like clothes and games for entertainment, and he runs into Rosah, again. She reveals to him that after the day Jun blocked him, Yohan went absolutely insane. He started bugging others about Jun, even bugging the teachers. He was completely desperate. He went to church, prayed and eventually threw a tantrum and loudly exclaimed āfuck uā to God and went as far as ripping his rosary apart in church. Jun is just like āwtfā and Rosah points out that his face it red. Rosah teases him, not even playfully, straight up confused on how that could get Jun to go red. To shut her up, Juns her āwhy did u lie to me? Ur father said Yohans second.ā And go Rosah was completely confused, responding āhuh? He told me I was⦠second..ā thatās when Jun learns, yeah Yohans father is fucked up and a liar, and promptly leaves.
In the hospital, Jun and Yohan talk. Itās chapter 20, the last chapter of the novel, and itās called āGo Yohans Religionā. Go Yohan just says āIām atheist now, youāre more useful than the guy up in the sky.ā Essentially, Yohan is saying that heāll belive in Jun, and that Jun is his new religion. Jun doesnāt believe him, so he tells him āIāll show you.ā Go Yohan kneels to the ground, grabs Juns foot, and slowly starts kissing his feet and goes up from there. And thatās where it ends. Itās assumed they made out because in the side stories, Go Yohan asks Jun if āthey could do what they did in the hospitalā and they made out.
I havenāt read all the side stories yet! But Iām almost done (schools got me busy). In the side stories, itās just a small continuation of their life. Jun and Yohan arenāt exactly together or friends. They dont have sex right away actually. They first actually just rub their dicks together, and Yohan later fucks Jun in between his thighs. Not until a few chapters later, they actually do have sex. Thatās where Jun, in a delirious state from the pleasure, ends up confessing to Yohan and telling him thatās heās actually liked him since highschool.
If you get anything from the story, Yohan is just a complete sociopath, with a messed up home life. You can tell the children of the Go house value their fatherās opinion, which was why he was really angry when Jun pulled that stunt in the dining room. Go Rosah mentions that Yohan really treasured his rosary as it was a gift from their father, when he ripped it apart she was completely stunned. The children seek nothing but validation of their father. Yohan says he likes Jun because the two are similar, and he never elaborates further.
And thatās it! Sorry for taking so long to reply. After I posted this, I went straight to bed for a nap. As soon as I woke up I started writing this. I was at my dining table for hours lmaooo. Worst part, my wifi went out and I lost everything I write so I had to rewrite it ā( Tļ¹T )āBut itās fine! After I was close to being done, I went to bed because i have lectures today and a midterm.
Anyway, I did leave some details out, but I did make sure to leave in all the important details. Iām not done with the side stories, but I did read the major ones. Hope you enjoyed! The novel was a roller coaster.
