Jiwon didn't rape him, there was consent and although he was an asshole there was no rape. Once he realized his mistakes he apologized, I think people were able to accept the character development because he didn't do something as far as rape. No matter what way you look at it, Yawhi raped Jooin and to a lot of people that's unforgivable.
You do realize even people in real life say stop during sex too and that’s why couples/sex partners use a safe word to prevent anything bad from happening? If your talking about the chapter with the dild* it can’t be considered as rape because Jiwon and Dong-gyun meet up to have sex. Dong-gyun used that dild* himself and than Jiwon was pissed so he did what he did and Dong-gyung said stop because he was feeling pain not because he wanted to stop having sex. Otherwise if Jiwon would’ve played with the dild* inside Dong-gyun or pulled the dild* and fucked Dong-gyun, Dong-gyun would still have said “stop” so Jiwon could understand that the incident with MD was all a misunderstanding. Not only that many MLM have given their opinion about Bj Alex and enjoyed the story because it portrays a really good and realistic development towards the character such as Dong-gyun learning to move on and stand up for himself and Jiwon being hurt and hurting other during that time to a very kind person to Dong-gyun. The story took its time to with the development of the characters and the best thing is that the author is a female that doesn’t fetishize MLM and made a good and healthy story for anyone to read.
The chapter that comes to mind as of right now was the one where jiwon used the d1ldo on DG and made him cry cuz eh hated it and told jiwon to stop multiple times but never did. No no no no you got me all wrong I don’t like yahwi at all I was genuinely curious why people don’t act the same way to jiwon as they do to yahwi cuz they act the same imo
Aaah I get it. The problem is that when you said your initial comment it came across that you supported Yawhi and it seemed hypocritical. I think I can understand your point of you, though I'd have to go back and see the chapter for myself. But in the story, every time Jiwon and Dongyun met up there was consent. I'm gonna spend my time trying to look for that chapter now to see if I can understand your point.
I just said Dong-gyun was in pain he obviously cried. Please look up for the definition of rape. As a victim myself I can tell what is rape and what is not. Dong-gyun was the one who brought the dild* in the first place and knew that Jiwon was aggressive. And like I said before the only reason Dong-gyun said stop and cried because he was in pain since Jiwon was being more aggressive than what he usually is not because he wanted to stop having sex. “Given” for example shows Akihiko fingering Haru and Haru said “slow down” and Akihiko did not listen and kept going. This is considered rape in a way because Akihiko said “slow down” and Haru didn’t want to have sex with because Akihiko was not in the right state of mind and Haru didn’t want to feel used which personally I would be pissed that I was used to forget about the person’s ex and that person knowing that I like them. There is a huge difference with Yahwi and Jiwon.
I think your brain dead. Did you read the story? When Jiwon and Dongyun got into that relationship, he made it clear it was only for sex and nothing emotional. He was a prick, that's obvious, but Dongyun knew that going into it. Than he had really good character development, which was deserved since he didn't go as far as to rape Dongyun. Yahwi is trying to get into a relationship with Jooin for some messed up reason but IS treating him like shit and he DID rape him. So he doesn't deserve charatcer development, or to be with Jooin.

Personally I don’t like either cain x jooin or yahwi x jooin.
But I’ll never understand how people like jiwon from bj Alex but not yahwi. They’re the exact same person in different fonts. All that’s left is the character development ig
