Personally, I knew this from the get go which is why I stopped reading this. I only come back when I have nothing else to do and I'm like "yeah let me see if that dumpster fire is still ongoing".
But I think I somewhat understand why some people stick around. People want to see the "regret and remorse arc". They want to see retribution in the form of uke leaving and seme begging to get him back and groveling. I have to say that I sometimes do enjoy that as all but this shit here doesn't seem like it will follow thay plot. At most the seme will tell the uke "comedy back" and he will wag his tail and bark at the seme's command. Also, there is no enjoyment in a regret arc that comes after so much rape, abuse, and toxicity.
That dumpster fire thing was hilarious but you’re right. I think it’s the anticipated ‘redemption arc’ that people are sticking around for, and yes while I do find it enjoyable in OTHER webtoons… This one is beyond repairable. It’s just that badly written… I also do not understand how people are putting up with Kim Dan’s character. I can’t stress this enough, but regardless of how much you like someone as horrible as Jaekyung, your inferiority complex is not the way to deal with it.
Quite frankly after this chapter I have been contemplating dropping the series. I so much love gifts and birthdays that I can't see any reason why it should lead to this. I really really expected something else. But I guess I'm at fault for hoping. If I'm ever to keep reading it, I just hope the Uke does a little more than just leaving him. I might take a break from the manhwa
“I hope Dan leaves him” … Um… Do you realize what you’re reading? It’s a smutty yaoi made by an author who likes to romanticize rape, but sure if you want to be delusional about it…
