20 million won (a month) is 15,000 USD. I've spent too long looking into the average salary of a Korean CEO Vs a sex worker to see if it's comparative.
Okay so it appears to be about right for the average Korean CEO / or a very wealthy individual (although the high end executives earn 4x that). Sex workers.. that was the difficult part. There's too much variety. Number of customers Vs $$/hour .. Could be on par, could be the lower end of a professional escort. Some examples were talking about 50k a month, others 50k a year (4000 / month).
I suppose what we can take from this is... Whatever Panther is doing.. he's very good at it.
Argh. That was kinda a let down. Mainly because I was holding Sehyuk to what he said back in c15 (if I screw you just because I want to do it, it's no different from masturbating).. and then that's what we ended up with. WTH.
Where were the smirks? The choices (either I put it in, or you put it in...), the proper foreplay! Where was Hamin realising why he was so angry... He missed you...
I had an idea of what it should look like and was expecting better (based on the characters interactions)... And this. This was not it.
So... I can work with the conniving/manipulation because that's politics, but I read the epilogue/author's note on another site and... it still doesn't give any closure!! There's still so many loose ends and plot points introduced that went nowhere! All the epilogue is, is Sioen linking his life to Minhu in a ceremony.. I thought this meant that hey now Minhu can't die until the emperor dies but nooooo wrong, it's confirming the dragon's prophecy of the emperor dying so when Minhu dies so does Sioen. Aaaaargh. And then all you have is the 8 year old prince left to rule the kingdom because everyone else is dead. I'm annoyed. I thought this had potential and then the character development went weird.
This has to be a trap... Right?!
I do feel sorry for Min though. Poor guy was shoved into hell / psychological murder illusions and expected to cope as well as Yugeon who'd at least had some training inside a gate.
I wonder what the plan is.. because killing off a bunch of guides (when they exist in fewer numbers anyway) seems like a reckless move unless they're just bait?
Ch12 the prince is talking about how Lilly went on an inspection... Did that happen off screen because I can't find that chapter. Then Ch13 she's visiting an orphanage.. and is suspicious about the disappearing kids .. but ch12 already had the outcome of that???? Are these two separate similar events??
I wondered about the same thing. I was thinking Gray was gonna tell her he had already taken care of it, but when he said he'll look into it, I grew even more confused.
