Defiant Kim Dan is so cute, I'm praying so hard that he sticks around for a WHILE and eventually Joo becomes desperate. Honestly one of the first times I've enjoyed this series in a hot minute, more of this please!! Doesn't erase how rough the beginning was but if it keeps up this pace I may have hope of rating it 3 stars by the end lol
The Joon rebound and eventual side couple with the brother is gonna be so satisfying, I can feel it frl
When he gets all smiley he totally looks like he did as a toddler lol. This author is one of the few that's really talented at realistically aging the characters.
It honestly doesn't matter to me who the babies biological father is, just who the MC chooses. He doesn't have to be end game with the fertilizer, just the better gardener...
1860 people did / 1361 want to do
Some tropes that you feel aren't used enough or that only occur in a small portion of a story? I'll start: When a love interest falsely believes that the other person is a player/much more experienced than they are. Off the top of my head it occurs in On and Off as well as My Guildmate Next Door. I find that this is a low stakes misunderstanding t......
Audibly sighed, it's way too soon for a reunion. They've barely been apart.
In an ideal world they never get back together, Dan lives a happy life in a small town and Joo rots away in miserable alcohol. And then the story pivots so the actor and potato are the main couple (づ￣ ³￣)づ
Frl tho the only reason I'm still reading is cus that side couple slaps
It's wayyy too early for a reunion, I pray these two don't snitch yet. JJ needs to suffer alone much more, I need him DESPERATE AND BEGGING when they reconnect
This suffering arc better last for a whole season, I'll be pissed if they get back together in like 5 eps
I may be tripping but this chapter seems to be so short? I actually refreshed because I thought it didn't fully load lol. Well fingers crossed this is finally the end of this arc and we can actually progress again...but I feel like we have many chapters of clean up ahead of us
I have a feeling that white hair will be the end game love interest but I don't doubt we'll have to put up with a dozen chapters of the lawyer and mc getting together first. Stay strong yall, have faith!!
OK weird sister aside, this author is seriously elite at writing intimate scenes in all of their works. Like they're rarely over the top kinky but they really capture how overwhelmed with love it can be and the dialouge is perfect. It's a rare moment where I actually get embarrassed reading because it feels real lol
Omg I love love LOVE the MCs personality in this, it's refreshing to see a protag whi doesn't get stupidly flustered when they should cringe instead lol. Also I'm holding out hope for an omega top in the side couple
Lol I feel like I'm in the minority, I looooove the slow burn. So long as there isn't massive angst, a little jealousy is ok for me ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
It's always the best stories that are the shortest T_T I want to see their relationship evolve outside of sex...
Haaaaaa I just finished binge/rage reading Jinx and this feels like therapy for my soul. They're so goals, these other bitches wish they had their chemistry
long rant incoming lol.
Whoever told me that the regret/redemption arc was upon us fucking scammed me lol. I just read 50 chapters of straight abuse, with genuinely no redeeming moments. I understand what the authors goal was, it seems to me like they saw the positive reception BJ Alex got when he was going through it/groveling and decided "I'll make a series based on that!" but they really, REALLY fumbled by making the negative too harsh. In BJ Alex, he was a dick but at the very least the MC was a willing partner and enjoyed the sex, plus Alex could put on a kind persona. It's taken like 30 chapters for Dan to even start actually getting pleasure out of what is the ONLY romantic aspect of their relationship. And Joo can't say a nice thing to save his life, genuinely.
It really pisses me off that I'm supposed to believe Dan has even a tiny crush on Mr. Joo, let alone an unrequited love. Why? Genuinely why would he? This man has manipulated him into a rough sexual relationship, and told him to shut the fuck up anywhere else outside the bedroom. He doesn't even respect him professionally, he constantly tells him to "just focus on doing your job" but won't take the bare medical advice he gives. This man is a medical therapist, before the sex that's what you hired him for, and yet you lash out when you're told to do the bare minimum and rest a pre-existing injury? I wish at least with this Dan would have a backbone if he won't grow one romantically, he's shown to genuinely take his work seriously and this would be a great place for him to put his foot down and have it still match his personality. It shows care towards the other partner.
It also bugged the hell out of me how much Dan sees the money as something Joo did out of the kindness of his heart? He didn't just do it as a charity case, he fucking bought you. He made sure you were in a state where you owe him, and you couldn't ignore his calls ever again now that you need to repay thousands of dollars with your labor. Supposedly he's nice to the grandma (once btw) but we walk in on the end of it and never actually see it. Joo can't even be bothered to be anything more than awful to his coworkers, dude doesn't even smile with the coaches he respects, and irl he would've been suspended much sooner than now for his disrespect. Genuinely no traumatic backstory, groveling, or whatever can redeem him at this point. The writers fumbled and made him too toxic for repair, and to make it worse gave him the biggest sub of all time.
I enjoy the side couple, this author has a habit of having their side couples be leagues better than the main one, and then barely dedicate chapters to them :(
Sorry for the long post, sound off in the replies though as I'm so full of rage I could go off more lol
