i absolutely fell in love with this story! the art is beautiful and every, even the smallest detail is thought through. and the main characters, i love them too much. can’t wait for season 3!
although the age gap at first was weird to me, i later started appreciating this story. it was so beautiful and filled with so many raw emotions, truly breathtaking. i also enjoyed the way it touched the topics of how nuanced the human psyche is, especially in terms of Jiho and his inner struggles.
honestly, even the adoption part, although a bit wierd, in the context of this story makes sense?
the ml didn’t want to get married and said it multiple times that he won’t get married and gay marriage in korea is not possible so it makes sense that he eventually chose to do something like adopt mc, tough weird to others. their relationship was weird and complex from the very beginning and honestly, in my opinion that’s where the beauty partially comes from - the inability to define them. as long as they’re happy, nothing else matters.
also, if this story was a song, it would be Hearing damage by Thom Yorke, not due to lyrics (or maybe because of them? have not thought about it yet), but due to the general vibe and the feeling this manhwa had.
I didn’t even think about this yeah I guess that’s one way to literally be legally family… At first I was like the adoption thing is weird bc I was thinking of it as him becoming his parent (?). But yeah realistically they can’t get married so this is probably next best thing.
They didn't get married, because they couldn't. It would be weird if Woojung adopted Jiho if they had the option to legally get married to each other.
this story was so disgusting. i feel so bad for mc, yes he wasn’t perfect, yes he committed a crime but like can we blame him? the only thing he was “guilty” for is wanting someone to acknowledge him and love him. that story was just so sad. i hated it. i read a lot of fucked up stuff, but honestly? this one is in the top 3.
ngl, i think the best scenario for mc would be to just kill himself. maybe that would somehow wake ml up and make him realize that he’s disgusting and literally ruined the person he “loved”. fuck this shit
YESSS, I was so angry at the ending I was hoping a 360 where mc would try and abandon him and he would chase after him but no it was the other way around
honestly i didnt even wish him a scenerio of ml chasing him since it would probably end with then getting together once again and like i said, mc would be better off dead ngl. ml didn’t care about him at all and only ruined his life and his mental health. i think many people who read bls get so focused on dub con or stuff like that and only pay attention to physical abuse, while straight up ignoring psychological abuse. and this manhwa is a perfect example of such abuse. shit is toxic, cannot imagine how someone would enjoy it.
glad i’m not the only one who is confused cuz wtf is this shit, the newest chapter made no sense
I think i clicked the wrong thing but i agree fr
