Put A Smile On review It starts off with Lee Kang and Junho... Lee Kang; a swimmer, got good looks and good physique. Sleeps around ; a total jerk. His parents died when he was young because of an "accident" and he was adopted by the Chairman of the School. He was under his "care" with free education as long as he'll compete at the School's Swim Team. He came across with Junho ; (a baseball player) once when the sponsors were pulling out from the baseball team, and they weren't allowed to use the gym they use to practice. Junho thought that it was Kang's doing. He was about to go to Kang, when suddenly he caught Kang having sex with the T.A. He thought it was a perfert opportunity. Junho was about to threat him having sex around and outed him all over the campus, so that he can get his revenge, however, it was a total twist. Kang's physical built was so overwhelming to Junho, that he was the one under him. Kang raped him. And it was recorded and he turned the tables onto Junho. He threatened that if he won't be his sex partner, he'll spread the pictures/videos around the campus, and as he was close to the chairman, Junho might not be a baseball player any longer. He accepted the deal and everytime Kang is horny, he'll be there in an instant, and they'll practically have sex anywhere in the classroom, in an alley or in Kang's house. Kang didn't really thought of Junho's feelings about this. No consideration at all. Even though Junho didn't want to, he'd still penetrate him anyway. Along and after their "set up", Junho learned a lot of things about Kang. He was also involved with some issues since he started "playing" along with Kang. 1) His parents died because of the chairman. The chairman liked Kang's mother ; but since the chairman didn't have any money , a total loser and was coward to actually confess to Kang's mother, she didn't spare an attention to him and married Kang's father. In which the Chairman became jealouse and despise the whole Lee family. Kang and his parents were supposed to be on a vacation since Kang won an award on swimming competition. And that vacation and "accident" was planned by the chairman. 2.) Kang was adopted by the Chairman, simply because of greed and money. He invested in his studies, swimming team competition and everything from young until highschool. He made him his "dog" and tortured him when he's not behaving well. He learned about Jihoon ; Kang's bestfriend and hurted his leg, the reason why Jihoon has to leave Korea for a awhile to heal. 3) His new target was Junho. When the Chairman knew they were sex buddies, it might change Kang's emotional practice. And that he doesn't like the idea of it. So when Jihoon was caught by him, he sent Junho the text and lured them to the hideout wherein Jihoon was tied down in a chair.. When Kang was about to kill the Chairman after knowing he was the reason why his parents died, Junho and "Blue" and the police came to the rescue. Authorities pulled Kang from the swimming official competition and he dropped from school. Junho went into looking for him after those incidents and confessed that they like each other. That's the end of it. REVIEWS: I don't really appreciate rape/non con > turned to romance. Because sex isn't romantic at all. I'd totally get it if Kang was really out of it, but it's not an excuse to manipulate and hurt other people just for his own entertainment. The story could have been more acceptable if it weren't like that. And it was pretty obvious that it was rushed. There's too much sex scenes on the first and mid part of the story that the main story wasn't attended to and the author just squeezed everything in one place. That's a horrible way to end it. I mean, I hope there was a character development for Kang and I hope Junho wasn't too forgiving. But nah, what happened is that Kang came back and Junho just accepted it wasn't a big deal just because of his 'feelings'.. It's more of a infatuation for me. Their relationship began with a physical desire, and they thought they had feelings with each other just because they enjoyed the sex. I need a season 2. Wherein Kang will be rehabilitated. And Junho will wait for him. Kang will quit the swimming team and will find good scholarship and find a job for his own future. Then I hope that if he realized his feelings for Junho were real, this time, he will pursue Junho with a romantic approach. I'd give his a 2 stars out of 5 just because I like the art and effort lol.
