coming back here just to remind yall that JOOHAE ARE ENDGAME BYE TAKU SEE U NEVER UGLY ASS MANIPULATIVE BITCH AKDJFJFKFKFKFJ KNEW JOOWON WAS THE CUTEST BABY SINCE CH.1 FEELS GOOD TO BE RIGHT

Lol I wanted joowon to be the end game too but I can't say I don't feel anything for taku ,it's not that I like him but I do want him to be happy and he really did love haesoo and gave his all to make him love back but failed miserably and it really pained me but at the same time I was happy and relieved cause it meant haesoo and joowon would end together which I really wanted from the very start,trust me I dropped this manhwa for months from the ch where haesoo and taku had first sex scene cause I just couldn't see ,I didn't even read that ch at first and dropped it cause I was joowon stan from the start and I only came back here after I read the raws and saw joowon is the end game lol it's funny but if it hadn't been joowon and haesoo at the end ,I probably wouldn't have come back here to read it again but I do feel bad for taku ,he deserves love ......

yea I get your point luv, I mean I don't know who would believe taku would be ukes end game, the whole mf story line REVOLVES around haesoo and joowon but the fact this bitch is calling TAKU, a "UGLY ASS MANIPULATIVE BITCH" got me, because from what me and a LOT of people see, its joowoon whos the ugly ass manipulative bitch.

im sorry but you do know that haesoo also fucking excepted it and said he'll try, c'mon a bitch has to learn to let go FFS, and idk what the fuck you think but without taku these two bitches was NEVER gonna reconcile, taku was the string, so in all honestly girly, you might thank taku or your ship would have fucking sinked <3

yes because ur fav was so forceful about it he didn’t even had time to think, ur fav took advantage of haesoos emotional confusion to force his love into him and bestie im afraid to tell you this but joohae loved each other for 10 years do u really think it was because of taku that they ended up together???? they were just scared to face their feelings but with or without taku at the end they would ended up together

I think neither of them were manipulative they both were eager and desperate,I know why u r saying joowon as manipulative ,cause he lied about his love for haesoo when their mom found out right? And later he told haesoo to not to fall in love with him or take them having sex seriously ,ik he completely broke haesoo's heart but he did it all for a reason ,joowon knew if they came out to his father at that time when they were a family ,he would have been forcefully sent to a foreign country for studies and he and haesoo wouldn't meet for yrs and he knew he wasn't independent at that time ,he needed to make his own money for him and haesoo if they wanted to have comfortable relationship but haesoo didn't know about these probs ,he simply thought joowon was playing with him and never loved him ,also they were step brothers at that time is was major problem besides them being in same sex relationship but later when he settled down after becoming a successful actor he did take haesoo for granted cause till then he was sure he wouldn't leave him but then taku came into picture ,taku was curious and desperate for love ,he was attracted to haesoo and at first he decided to ask him on whim but then they ended up having sex many times cause haesoo wanted to get away from joowon and taku wanted someone to fill the empty place in his heart ,I truly believe he really loved haesoo with all his might but then again it was always haesoo and joowon from the very start and taku was a third wheel who got hurt in the process of them realising their love for each other
So I'd just say this manhwa was absolutely amazing,it portrayed the complex human nature really well through all the three characters and they were wrong and right in many places ,that's how usually humans r ,there r many unsaid feeling, emotions , sometimes these r suppressed without getting a change of being put into words and sometimes they r denied that's why love ain't easy game ,it's tough and requires sacrifices ,it's a whole damn ride
Lol I m sorry it got soooo long haha

The thing is Taku never tried to change , Jowon wasnt perfect he was certainly far from it but Taku just self inserted himself . He knew Haesoo will always love Jowon so instead of letting him be happy he imstead guilt trip him , made him miserable and manipulated him . Im not saying Jowon was never manipulative or didnt lie to Haesoo but unlike Taku HE CHANGED , HE DEVELOP, HE REFLECTED , HE BECAME CONSIDERATE something Taku has never been , he was always selfish . But he stop that near the LAST PART , so if Haesoo never left him he wouldnt have changed . And here are some examples of that
Exhibit 1 - He wanted to use his sex tape to guilt trip Haesoo in their relationship. He said: “I hoped that guilt would bring you to me”. It only didn't happen cause Haesoo turned down publishing the sex tape. It was not that Taku backed away and stopped himself because he realized how fcked up his actions were. It made Haesoo uncomfortable and weirded out too,, pretty sure this can count as sexual/workplace harassment lmao
Exhibit 2 - In chapter 96’s flashback Taku says "i just want to read the story he writes about me when i'm gone” (his friend calls him an asshole too lol). This is a throwback to Leo telling Joowon over the phone about how Taku uses his models for his work, and then tosses them aside with little regard. He was planning the same with Haesoo, until he later got “attached”. that’s karma ig~
Exhibit 3 - Haesoo expressed that he was unsure/not ready for a relationship. Yet literally RIGHT AFTER his quasi breakup with Joowon, Taku is pressuring him like, "I'm still waiting for an answer". It's weird cause Haesoo's wounds are fresh from his breakup, and Taku is NOT stupid. He knew this and persisted. Haesoo shouldn't have agreed and that's his own fault (HS is not entirely a victim here lets make that clear). Meanwhile Taku? He was flat out taking advantage of Haesoo's broken emotions.
Exhibit 4 - Quote: “It must have been painful for him no doubt, but I still wanted to see more". This was Taku's thought during a photoshoot with Haesoo, which later made Haesoo cry at the exhibition (Chapter 92/93). Taku told Haesoo: "think about having sex with someone you love, but you can never see them again". This was RIGHT AFTER Joowon and Haesoo's big separation. To inflict emotional pain in your partner, and then say you were interested in seeing more? Bruh no… just no.
Exhibit 5 - Quotes: “Every time I saw how sad you were, it felt good.” “You were lonely. You need me because of your unhappiness.” —Chapter 58. This is from Taku's monologue of how Haesoo’s unhappiness made him feel good, because he felt depended on by Haesoo for comfort // hs get away from this man pls haha
Exhibit 6 - Another quote: “If I can’t beat him [jw] one-on-one, then I at least want you [hs] to feel bad” —Chapter 66 ...Can Taku stop wishing for Haesoo depression, like he's already sad jfc
Exhibit 7 - "I want to bury inside the void he [jw] left in you. And later I'll push him aside however I can." ...honestly this quote struck me as Taku taking advantage of Haesoo's heartbreak and being hella 'opportunistic' (btw: Taku called HIMSELF that in his interview in chapter 5 so I mean... lol). Maybe that's just me though idk.
Exhibit 8 - In Chapter 84 when Joowon's scandal broke out, notice how Taku starts texting "are you okay?" to Haesoo, then deletes it and instead tells him to stop caring about Joowon? This moment said a lot to me, because it's the fact that Taku is SO AWARE of how Haesoo must be feeling, but he purposely chooses to ignore that and cares more about winning and keeping him away from Joowon. Kinda struck me as the opposite from Joowon's phone call after Haesoo's modelling news dropped in chapter 68. JW asked Haesoo to not do the exhibition because he knew its not what HS wanted (he is right: haesoo always wanted to be known for his writing not his face, and felt crappy abt it all day). But when Haesoo said he was fine, JW told him he'll always be on Haesoo's side even as a hyung/friend. He made it so clear how he cares the most about HS simply being okay, even after Haesoo left him.
Exhibit 9 - Taku tells Haesoo he hopes he has a hard time with Joowon after their breakup (Chapter 99). It felt wrong to me cause Haesoo genuinely apologized and gently let him down in their breakup... but Taku tries to make Haesoo feel worse. I honestly understand being spiteful towards exes who mistreated you in some way. HOWEVER with this relationship: it seemed to highlight Taku’s selfishness. Taku is out here acting like Haesoo wronged him for simply not liking him back in a 1 month TRIAL relationship. As if he wasnt the one who initiated and *insisted* on their relationship. As if he was unaware of Haesoo’s feelings for Joowon. As if Taku didnt say it was better that they use each other. Him wanting to make Haesoo feel bad over this is wild considering all the conditions of their relationship and his past manipulation too.
((Also, Taku in this scene to Haesoo: “Sorry I told you I'm not a good person” … Like sir, if you know you’re not a good person, THEN FIX IT. Joowon spent almost 40 chapters self-reflecting n trying to correct the mistakes he made, when he never *intentionally* wanted to hurt Haesoo lol. Meanwhile some Taku fans: “omg he’s a good person that was wronged. haesoo never deserved him!” lmaooo))
///end of examples
Taku not perfect but calling him ugly isnt just it , I get that we all have preferances but you have to learn how to use your words and be calm (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
the mc is dumb as hell… like m’am how can u be that stupid at 33 … embarrassing
finally thank you but then at the same time i get it like girly never had any other types of interaction with men except customer service and with the cunt of a guy (i forgot his name) like yea… hella shallow its giving wattpad vibes lol
Im not suprised lol, it actually realistic for me since i have and met people like that irl
yehh ure right but still.. lets hope she gets a character development, i hate when women are portrayed as bedside tables with no personality
lmaooo damn
i hate people like you. where’s the compassion? i know i would kill a man if he treated me a fraction of what mincheol does but give the MC some grace. she literally has NOBODY in her life to help or support her. i feel like this story is one of few that makes sense why she is “portrayed as a table”.
lmaoo i wish yall had the same compassion for real people.. dear kei i aint talking abt the abuse part im talking abt the way she behaves with the other dude and ppl in general, she literally looks 13 .. its okay if u struggle to let go of someone whos been w you ur whole life but also outside of that she has NO PERSONALITY now go drink sone tea to relax
