Kwonlim sucking off Haekyeong was the hottest thing I’ve seen. That man is nasty and he so in love with Haekyeong. We love to see it!
some authors don’t deserve their characters. oh kim dan, let me protect you. you deserve so much better.
Mahwas that are first novels and/or have an author + artist ALWAYS have top-tier dialogue! The pacing is always on point and the ending is never rushed. The lack of sex scenes prevented the author/artist from using them as fillers or conflict-solvers. I loved it because it made me YEARN. Like, I’ll take a kiss on the neck, pretty please.
I loved the dual POV of events. It made everything much more interesting and prevented the manhwa from hitting a lull. Heejae nearly had me for a second—like, he could not have showered Seyeong with so much attention without liking him and I was right, that man not only fell for Seyeong once, but twice. Seyeong is simply that girl XD. The art is glorious. I commend the artist for how many characters they drew (drawing 2 main pairings + tons of extras must have been TOUGH). Heejae and Seyeong are both beautiful, but Seyeong is another level of pretty. No wonder Heejae is so possessive. And you know what, so is Seyeong. That man sunk his claws into Heejae way before admitting his feelings. I loved their relationship. I loved how much they bickered. That enemies to lovers progression hit the spot. They’re both so caring of each other underneath their clashing personalities that actually pair so well. I mean, they’re both gamers with attachment issues, are equally possessive and jealous, and insanely competitive. They’re just meant to be!
My only complaint is that I wish Heejae’s original motive to “date” Seyeong would have been revealed. I think the angst would have been glorious. I suppose because Heejae really fell for Seyeong, it was swept under the rug. I thought for a second Woohyeon would reveal it, but I was mistaken.
I really hope we get more of these two! I already miss them. I would love side stories. That fade to black sex scene could easily become an explicit side story o.o.
Hard agree with the other comments. Torikai should have reached out Yajima, simply because Torikai was responsible for pushing him away. I mean, how great would it have been if Yajima had been injured (or believed to be) and Torikai had rushed to him? That would have been Torikai’s push to apologize.
Wow. So many thoughts. So many things to say. Spoilers and long text ahead.
First, what came first, Limited Run or Jinx? Judging by the dates, I believe Limited Run. Holy. The author of Jinx must have been inspired by LR. The characters look very similar, down to their hairstyles, physicality, and personalities. Other similarities include Yeon Oh’s grey hoodie + blue jeans combo, Jaehyuk's name, the apartment + staircase setting, the grandma, the loan sharks, and the debt. Let me know if anyone knows anything about this that I don’t!
Okay, now that that’s off my chest, I do want to commend the author for such beautiful artwork. Both Yeon-Oh and Jaehyuk are insanely pretty in their own right. I love how proportionate the characters’ bodies are. It is very realistic artwork. I devoured the entirely of this manhwa in a few days. Thats how eager I was to read. I’m sucker for toxicity, so a manhwa shouldn’t piss me off when it gets toxic, but it did. I was not a fan of the graphic nature of the scenes between Loan Shark # 1 and Yeon-Oh. It was graphic to the very end, too. Hated that. Yeon-Oh deserved the very best and was disappointed by everyone at every turn up until the end. I wish he could have had a friend, a coworker, anyone, that he could have turned to for advice, care, friendship. He sorely needed it. Disappointed he had no third-party to rely on (because his family was shit). The end was extremely rushed. Jaehyuk needed to grovel WAY more, approximately as much as it took him to realize his feelings. That man could not utter an “I like you” in his first confession and it made me fume when I was expecting an “I love you”. Jaehyuk was only mildly redeemable simply because his affection for Yeon-Oh was implied through his actions (even though I second-guess this because he was scheming for that USB the entirety of their relationship).
Chapters 87 and 88 truly begins to redeem him. Not only because he looks FINE and so Yeon-Oh’s boyfriend material, but because I love it when semes grovel. And that man was on his knees. Exactly where he should be! I LOVED the subtle shift of power dynamics between them. It was very, very hot. Jaehyuk is on the path to deserving sweet, sweet Yeon-Oh. <3
This was perfectly short and sweet! Erin is simply the prettiest—like whatever you say, beautiful beta with big, brown doe eyes. No wonder Daniel is so hooked! I enjoyed their discussions on consent and how much they went back and forth about it concerning their first night together. It felt very realistic. They wanted to clear the air and they did! I love how doting Daniel became once he realized his infatuation with Erin. I wish we could have delved deeper into Erin’s character. He is so interesting and complex. He appears to have self-worth and confidence issues, plus it seems he was a completely different person at his old job. I would have liked to know what made so!
I love it when the aloof character falls head over heels. Suzuki met his match in Tanaka.
I sort and filter by completed and I still get got D: Absolutely loving it so far. First volume was so fun. I love how much they bicker. I love their easygoing competitiveness. And now, the angst. That cliffhanger made me tear up.
Yeah idk why its marked as complete when i hope to Gawd its not
What… why are they so cute? I love how Moriyama never forced Yanaka and their first time was when both of them were in love! Moriyama’s glow-up was insane, but I especially love that it came after he became Yanaka’s “boyfriend”. He said let me fix myself up for my man
This story is straight up whump about Kim Dan. He can’t catch a break. Why does Jaekyung keep getting uglier, too?
