YaoiHands's manga / #Interesting(122)

Ok I am absolutely loving thisss. It wasn’t too hard to catch on and thanks to the translators notes and extra effort to make sure readers are understanding the plot (plus this bliss of having some of the novel directly translated) it is such a great read. BecUse I can remember the spelling of the names I’ll just use the first initial) Director J has severe insomnia and uses alcohol and drugs to get what little sleep he can. 5 years ago, he had met an actor Hee, and decided to just ruin his life because this man gave Director J mixed feelings that he didn’t understand (he also saw him in a movie and felt the same way in screen). So Director J gets Hee’s manager or assistant, whatever, to plant drugs in his house (I believe it was after a big party that was at Hee’s place). Having no way to defend himself, Hee’s career went down the drain. Eventually Hee is given probation and this is where the story starts. Hee is able to meet Director J through a mutual acquaintance. Hee insists that he needs to apologizes to Director J for something that had happened at his party, but Hee doesn’t know it was Director J who ruined his life. After finally agreeing to meeting him Director J finds out that they had slept together and that he was on the receiving end. Furious and confused, he beats the shit out of Hee (he is now an actual movie director, whereas Director J is a director of a family company). Plot just goes on from there, ahh, so gooooood.

He’s able to read minds and finds out that a quiet jr really, really, really likes him. Super cute. If it was long and more in depth it had the potential to be a favorite for me.

Two stories, connected but not significant in connection. First story: doctor finds a man passing out with a fever on his way home. Finds out he works in real estate in the same giant building complex as himself. The real estate agent comes off mean but does that to protect himself due to a past relationship. He’s actually super nice and considerate. The doctor helps him with those issues. Second story: IT worker is confused why this American new hire transfer keeps saying that he likes him. During a dinner they share the worker explains how a certain client made him uncomfortable because they were overly touchy and doesn’t want to meet them alone again. American guy is like, sorry can’t make it with you. Turns out he was undercover with the FBI and trying to catch these guys who produce a drug. They tried to get the worker to become apart of it and gave him a small dose and was gonna literally fuck him up and blackmail him to work for them.

A magical door connecting two rooms from two different areas in Korea. Both boys are lonely, one moves frequently thanks to his parents work, and the other was forced to live in the countryside for his grandmothers health. Such a cute story

Ending felt very abrupt, but still good. I guess because it wasn’t that typical ‘I love you’ or ‘Together forever, happily ever after’ ending it felt like more could have happened. Still cute, I like the different romances without it being an annoying love triangle, cheating, or ‘will they, won’t they’ nonsense. The different personalities were fun for each character and the buildup was there but not over dramatic. Overall a nice easy going story.

Oh I absolutely adore this sooo much! The historical accuracy and importance (I say accuracy based on the translators notes which I am SO grateful for btw) I love that the romance isn’t overly done-AT ALL. It’s still there, hinted at, but the plot focuses on the resistance and a poor girl who got caught up in it. It’s so good. Now here comes the drama. But omg, it is so well done! I know it has many more chapters to go, almost halfway done at this point. I had to look it up on the naver website, I was so excited. I haven’t been this excited about a romantic hetero plot since the Fruits Basket remake! Lol
