This is a gem. A new favorite of mine. And I just love the art; so beautiful. <3 I can't believe we're stuck on an indefinite hiatus. Wonder when this will come back, if it ever does. So far, I just went through all five stages of grief in the span of a second. I'm torn. I'm battered. I'm bruised. The color of my world got drained and all I'm left to see is shades of grey. Nothing matters anymore. It's super toxic and like morally f***ed but I absolutely loved the main couple. It's just such an intense relationship. ლ(´ڡ`ლ) It's really just an obsession and I love that.

After reading this, I get the feeling the webtoon is incomplete, though I realize that the author left it like that so we know Sekwang will die but not hurt us by actually reading about his death and the pain Jun will have to go through. I liked the basic idea of this; seeing the number of everyone's lifespan with the twist not seeing the one's you want to see the most. Another thought I have that was hinted when Jun mentioned that the other person would soon see the other person's number was that the ones they held close those person's numbers they couldn't see but when they had less than a year to leave, then they could see it in order to enjoy the remaining time (which is a year) to the fullest. I would have liked to see more character development, it's the only thing that was amiss from this. Their emotions were really lacking we can only see them in the last 3-4 chapters. I am actually kinda glad that it ended before he actually died. Don’t think I’d be able to handle the sadness. Though I wish there was some way for them to “skirt” the issue. Like if he died for a minute, but was able to be revived, this “resetting” the timer, as it were. But since Jim Ha is an actual doctor, I am guessing that he would already known if that were possible or not, since he would have seen people like that and seen their numbers before and after the temporary death. And if that could work, he’d have already run across a case like that. But even if we don’t see his actual death, it still feels very bittersweet. And it makes me sad. The ending is a sad-open ending. If someone likes angst, then I would recommend this story to you. Another kind of ending I would have enjoyed would have been: if on the day Sekwang was gonna die, they planned a vacation. It was calm and mysterious as they held hands, the moment of his death was mere minutes away. "Jun ha, you... seem to have numbers too and it says, 30 seconds" Jun ha looks in shock and relief that, both of them are gonna die at the same exact time. The End.

This sexualizes human trafficking. That's an icky premise. With such a despicable seme, how can this relationship even play out? I just want to see a submissive alpha.

Part of Bomtoon Short Story Gangster Champaign and the 3rd Story (Ch.10-12) on Lezhin. Short but with an unexpected twist. Loved it.
