He’s a Russian top so manhwas can’t fathom a plot otherwise. Like passion or roses and champagne (=・ω・=)
Did you really think a Russian mobster, a murderer, and a bloodthirsty killer was actually going to share your values? ;-; Psychological manipulation is present here, as is physical abuse. It's a dark romance. That might make you uncomfortable.
Hey so rAP£ is NEVER AND NEVER WILL BE romance, its not dark "romance"
I agree wholeheartedly, but nowadays the line between dark romance and straight up crime has thinned so much. Like some of the dark romances is literally just stalking, rape, and objectification. I used to dislike dark romance and now id throw such a book off the Burj Khalifa ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
That's your opinion, but it doesn't change the fact. Zhenya and Taekjoo's toxic relationship is what makes up the novel.
The potential this manhwa had. It had everything I like, a dark skinned bottom, good plot, tension, interracial couple, spies, politics but they had to add grape Urghhhh im so annoyed I love a toxic yoai but dark romance doesn't mean you need grape you could just have Zhenya manipulate Taekjoo emotionally not assaulted him.
