Yikes... your partner expressed multiple time that he was uncomfortable and you didn't stop. Now you want to choose a safe word??? In a healthy relationship things like that has to be discussed prior any intercours. It's a big red flag
A) Yiyoung wasn't raped.
B) Yiyoung agreed to the act.
C) Both he and Kang realized they needed to be a bit more clear on their terms.
D) Rape isn't simply an act of "not consenting," it's an act to overpower the person entirely.
E) Mistakes happen. Miscommunication happens. The fact that Kang and Yiyoung realized they miscommunicated and worked together to fix that is proof that no rape happened. Kang prides himself on consent.
Takes like "he didn't stop when told, so he raped him," is straight churlish and disassociated from the given context. It's a lazy take on a real-world issue and it's being thrown around carelessly for the sake of ego instead of accuracy.
Yes. Absolutely. Thank you for putting into words when I was too lazy. You said it better than I could have. I do feel bad for the people who are disagreeing with this, because they are probably victims themselves and need therapy. But this definitely the reformed take on what happened. Those were two consenting adults and it’s a shame others cannot see it that way.
Fuck the context. Your partner should stop immediately when you're are not comfortable. No is No even during the act. It's not a communication problem come now. Again this shit is normarlize. And you are the problem here if you can't recognize rape. Most people reading this are young girls and they are the primary victims of sexual violence in intimate partnership. What you are saying is dangerous. And because of take like yours many victims are not taken seriously.
For a man as old and experienced as Kang should know if his partner says "No" "Stop" "Please I don't want it" in the middle of the deed, not to mention even MULTIPLE TIMES, he should ask if they're comfortable to move forward. Just because consent was there in the start of it, doesn't mean the partners can't change their minds in the middle of the act. Saying yes in the start is not a binding contract that's set in stone.
Also, at this point they've been dating for what, years? They way they screw each other, they should know new plays should not be put into beta testing before communication. Mr. Kang is a typical man who thinks having a big dick and knows how to use it overrides whatever perferences and deal breakers their partner has.
Conclusion: Mr. Kang is not the green flag you thought he was. If you enjoy it, you can enjoy it. It's up to you. But keep in mind that you might get desensitized to real world sexual violence because you would think Non-Con is sexy.
That’s such a weird way to frame consent “miscommunication” stops being a harmless mistake the moment someone says no or is visibly uncomfortable and the other person keeps going. Consent isn’t just “well they eventually talked it out after,” it has to be clear DURING the act too.
Also saying “he prides himself on consent” doesn’t magically erase the situation intentions don’t matter more than the other person’s boundaries. People are allowed to criticize scenes that blur consent instead of brushing it off as “mistakes happen.”

Ooooohhhhh myyyyyy Goooooddddd this is a freaking manhwa, and Yiyoung says in the shower scene "I wanted you to keep going", when Kang asks "should I have stopped?", they had a bit of miscommunication and worked it out with a safe word and by talking like couples do, the only worry in Yiyoung's mind is if they were seen or not





I don't think the end was rushed. The story literally took a year to reach this stage. Last year Dan was an alcoholic who didn't want to see JK anymore. And JK was so desperate to find him.
