Kim Dan's character development:
• Had his first love;
• learned to get over his first love;
• Built confidence in his profession;
• Lost his fear of speaking up when necessary;
• Learned he deserves more than crumbs;
• Got used to people being nice to him;
• Made good friendships;
• Is fighting his depression by himself for the sake of his beloved grandmother;
• Is always improving at work as much as he can.
Jaekyung's character development in 64 CHAPTERS:
• Now blushes and kisses during sex.
Truly amazing.
I know this is going the exact same path as Bj Alex: mc is broken hearted and cold towards the ml, then they fuck once bcs ml is desperate and after that mc just leaves the room asap making ml feel like trash. Alright. BUT! Jiwon was just a regular jerk, the way he mistreated dg is not even CLOOOOOSE to what jaekyung has done. I do think Jiwon's redemption arc were pretty okay since he changed drastically and felt truly guilty of his behavior, he became an amazing boyfriend, friend and human being over all, but Jaekyung... Man, I can't even imagine what way his redemption arc could go that would actually be fair to Kim Dan and make us satisfied at the same time.
Plus let's face it Jiwon was a big time jerk but Donggyun almost messed up Jiwon's chanel coz he wasn't strong enough to have some self respect and leave him
Unlike Dan who had a real goal for it DG just kept being used as a doormat coz he was fanboying over Jiwon
That's so true! Jiwon was a jerk but dg wasn't perfect either, and they both recognized their flaws and worked it up together. Jiwon's redemption arc were proportional to their situation.
Now, to make it even worse, at this point Jaekyung should be at least having some thoughts like questioning his feelings or at the very least not thinking/saying things like "that's right, I just wanna fuck you bcs you're good at sex" like COME OOOOON that's literally the same thoughts he had since chapter 1, it's like he hasn't made any progress in 64 chapters. All his surprised or angry expressions just screams he got his ego hurt and that's it. This is so frustrating...
So, I'm an art teacher. I was chatting with my students about how animes, mangas, games and other things they usually like are also art and how cool it is. So a student of mine, 11 years old (first year of middle school) asked me one of the questions I fear the most: "teacher! do you know a 'manga' called jinx?" She asked me with a very suspect grin on her face. I had to think quickly about how I should react before my expression of absolute CHOCK AND DESPAIR BCS WHY DA FUCK A KID KNOWS ABOUT IT could give me away. So I told her I have heard of it, as if I wasn't someone who is a fujoshi for the past 20 years. I also said I knew it wasn't something for her age, but then she said SHE JUST KNEW IT EXISTED BECAUSE OF THE MEMES ON TIKTOK THAT ARE TRENDING.
Guys, seriously... WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?!?!
Just so you know, this happened in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, we don't even have an official translation in Portuguese.
Oh, and one more thing before I go: FUCK YOU JAEKYUNG
I have no idea who you are BUT THANK YOU AND HELLO? SAVE THAT GIRL FROM TRAUMA LIKE ME AND MOST OF US HAVE GONE THROUGH BC OF BL LIKE THIS. Suggest her to read someone else's bl bc she's too young for smut :((
I did talk to her after class (of course I didn't say I read it lol) about how this kind of content could make serious damage to her brain and put her in danger in real life, since there were a lot of comics that romanticize literal crimes and people of young age would think that's normal or cute and stuff like that. It looks like she understood but she guaranteed everything she knew was only through TikTok, I honestly don't know if I believe her though... Anyway, I did recommend her to watch hunter x hunter which is my favorite anime, I'm just scared to expose children even to shounen ai because I think she would probably just go straight to yarichin after that since I truly suspect she has read at least one chapter of Jinx
(╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Preach
yeah something like this happened to me, back in 2019 when i was 13 and Killing Stalking was coming out. I READ THAT SHIT AND THOUGHT IT WAS VERY ROMANTIC?¡?¡??!?!?!?! anyway, greetings from mexico
Maybe it's one of those memes/tiktoks in which they compare jaekyung to Spirit the horse!! I've never looked for webtoons on tiktok, but I did see a couple of them about him and Spirit
Same… I don’t remember how old I was, but I wasn’t old enough to understand that it wasn’t supposed to be romantic…
Bro SAMMEEE I should had no business reading allat at 12
There's simply no way this story has 1110 votes with a 9.6 rating and I never EVER heard about it before. I'm not too much into manhuas, what do you say guys, is it really worth it or is it just popular?
its worth it!! im just on my way to reread this for the third time LOL
I was sus at first too, especially bc I found the first chapter really confusing. But I promise you the rating is SO justified, this manhua was such a cute n wholesome slowburn. Super funny too. Wish I could read this again for the first time
Thanks for commenting guys, you convinced me! I'll read this, I LOVE cute slowburns so much T_T I'm glad it's popular for a reason, it must be really worth it! Thank youuuu
I hate to comment things like this but I can NOT be the only one who is profoundly bothered by the kinda ugly art... Why are their shoulders SO disproportionately small??? And why are their mouths like that? And also what's up with that ugly old assistant, he looks worse than a blob fish melting after reaching the surface yk I think he's the ugliest character I have ever seen in my entire life, damn, da fuck happened to his face man and where's his freaking neck?? Anyways, no opinions about the story yet cause I'm still on chapter 13, just wanted to vent a little lololol
Its not that bad when you imagine how they look in your head clearly ykwim
Man this is a slowburn for REEEEAAAALL but I have to say I'm enjoying every little step they take WAY more than stories where mc is already dating the ml before chapter 20 (I also love those tho). Also, as someone who likes to game sometimes after work, I feel absolutely satisfied, I'm having so much fun I don't even miss the smut! Oh man I LOVE THIS SOOO MUCH!!! ㅠ ㅠ
peopleeee is this a shounen ai or do we get some action going on? just wondering
I honestly thought it was until we got a scene where jigu wakes up from an insane wet dream lmao
Oh alright I see, so I hope it's kinda a slowburn then heheh
yep! People who’ve read the novel say they get pretty freaky lol
Man, I feel bad for whoever got their hopes up for this story and paid real money to read it...
You have to pay real money to read it!?
Well, not me ofc. I don't know where this has been licensed but yeah, the officials are definitely been sold somewhere, we're reading illegally after all ¯_(ツ)_/¯
GUYS I know we're already at chapter 65 but I just remembered something in chapter 55 where Minjae (Sejin's brother) was arguing with Sejin and then he says "I LIKE Y–" and Sejin interrupts him.
So... umm... It can't be what I'm thinking, right......????? I mean, I can be a little slow sometimes and I could tell from the beginning his "little brother" was worried about him, but he's a tsundere after all. Well, that would be WAY different from confessing to his brother though???? Can we PLEASE talk about it for a second? Am I losing something??
His brother has feelings for him Sejin knew but kept it hush and family friendly, he has no romantic interest in his brother
Yea the brother is in love w him
Literally bc really glossed over that I was shook
Oh my god just do it already and keep up with the story, I feel like they have been dragging this scene for the past 4 chapters and they didn't even started yet, how much longer is it gonna take?? Just get it over with already man, I wanna see the parents reaction geez
