I HATE HIM AFTER THE NOVEL….
He tries to “free” Jiwook by convincing him to run away and gets the help of one of Jiwook’s gang raper and basically made a deal without Jiwook knowing saying if he helped them he’d let the asshole fuck Jiwook and the guy beat up Jiwook and almost raped him but Juyeon found out where he was, Juyeon came back from his mom’s hospital and was pissed off and the feelings of revenge were intensified so he made Jiwook sick Suhyeok off and ride him .. also after that the worst part and final part of Juyeon revenge happeneds and Juyeon admits if Suhyeok never got Jiwook to escape he wouldn’t have carried it out

Here! Chapter 6 is chapter 15-16 in the manga https://lilyonthevalley.com/chapter/emp-chapter-6/

I read the whole novel including the side stories and while it was darker than most things I’ve read it isn’t as bad as ppl claim tbh
If you’re looking for domestic stuff you’re better off waiting for the side stories to come out because while there are some domestic scenes, the sides stories is where they’re practically an established couple. While this novel is labeled “no love” I’d argue agaisnt that for the sides stories since Juyeon literally thinks this: “A changed relationship can never go back. Like the exhausted relationship with his mother, or the distant relationship with his father. Yet, Park Juyeon liked it this way. A mutual dependency he was afraid to call love, where he fears his absence, and he can't let go of him.
Perhaps Park Juyeon would maintain this peculiar relationship with Kwon Jiwook forever.”
Yes this whole thing was for revenge, everything juyeon did to Jiwook, Jiwook did first and it’s debatable who had it worse, NO Jiwook wasn’t a pedophile he was a 9th grader at the time. And while this started off as revenge juyeon didnt feel just hate towards Jiwook, there were scenes where he did show care to an extent for Jiwook even before he forgave him. He even wanted to just give up his revenge and keep their relationship like this and he even felt pity for Jiwook.
After Juyeon carried out his revenge (lmk if you want a detailed explanation) Jiwook ends up in the hospital, (Juyeon brought him there and was anxious the days while watching over him), his injuries aren’t too extreme but he ends up remembering what he did to Juyeon and apologizes and Juyeon says he begged and apologized to Jiwook in the past and he never cared and Jiwook can’t say anything but apologize and Juyeon leave the room only to come back and Jiwook basically is scared to be alone and asks Juyeon not to abandon him and Juyeon ends up hugging him and saying he won’t and tells him to move back with him
(Side stories) it takes a few weeks for Jiwook to fully heal from his injuries but even after then for two months Juyeon never touched or slept with Jiwook, he only did so after two months and even then their sex was soft and gentle, Juyeon takes Jiwook to a psychiatrist after Jiwook admits that he hears the voices of the men who gang raped him after a suicide attempt to try and get rid of the voices , Juyeon was scared he’d try and attempt and gets Jiwook to see a psychiatrist, Jiwook doesn’t want to but agrees because he knows his ptsd is bad, he gets medication and Juyeon has to coax him into taking it and basically babies him, only after the medications work and with Jiwook’s initiation does their sex become bdsm that’s actually meant for mutual pleasure.
Even after 5 years they’re still living together in a dom sub relationship, Jiwook isn’t scared of Juyeon anymore and Juyeon dotes on Jiwook, Juyeon’s father wanted him to move back in but he refuses and becomes independent from his family to stay living with Jiwook and gets a job too, they both depend on each other and love each other but don’t really admit it.
But anyways the main story is dark asf but they’re changing things so I wonder if this will be another sadistic beauty side story instead or if they’re only changing the really disturbing scenes

Oh wow okay this makes me wanna read the novel for myself too. With how twt blew up when the series first started- I thought that everything will just get darker and darker with no light at the end but this comment really paints the series in a different tone. Yeah its dark but not to the degree twt made it out to be haha.
Now I’m really excited with how the artist will show the darker scenes since they’re really good at illustrating bruises/ expressions (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
But with the hiatus rn- I’m hoping that they’ll take longer update schedule instead of changing artists midway through the series (I don’t want anyone else to illustrate this series aside from lee guemsan hehe)

The manhwa isn’t on break! Only the legal translation is, the Korean manwha is still updating so the unofficial translation should still update!
And yeah the main story is dark asf but everything Juyeon did was just stuff Jiwook did to him first but even then he couldn’t bring himself to fully hate Jiwook and even took him out to get drinks and ordered him fried chicken, but the manhwa is different and already is way lighter than the novel so I don’t even think it’ll be as bad

https://lilyonthevalley.com/chapter/emp-chapter-1/ Ngl I probably read it the same place you did, I just paid 15$ to get the rest of the novel unlocked because I couldn’t wait anymore but it looks like this site is doing a free chapter a week
The comment section for the next few weeks is gonna be so annoying…
YES there will be violent gang rape, leave now and don’t flood the comments next chapters we get it you think this is problematic
why? tho like I dont understand this is literal shit and the way the author is trying to make it cute is insane like he just brutally raped him and beat him bloody and now hes kissing his forehead??? like be consistent if your going to make some extreme shit like this
because that’s what a manipulative and abusive person does. they act horrible and shitty to their victim and the next, they act like nothing was wrong and shower them with love. it’s to lower the victims guard and make them trust their abuser. the author did a good job in making the character like that.
Juyeon was in love with Jiwook when they were younger, he struggles with fully hating Jiwook because Jiwook genuinely has no idea what he did in the past but at the same time Juyeon can’t forget the trauma caused
I’m not gonna spoil but Juyeon is not as bad as you think he is, he’s not doing this randomly
