Am I doing that thing where the blatantly awful ML does an earnest thing one time and I completely forget every evil horrible disastrous thing they did before………
Or is Vercike like… actually really cute and genuine?
Agia’s a bitch for attacking them but god can’t they just help him get through some goddamn fog and send him on his way and get his kidnapped lover back? I can guarantee it’d be less of a hassle than actually nearly getting murdered and maimed just because you’re stubborn. He’s not in the right at all but helping him isn’t the wrong choice.
I hate Jaekyung but I’m not gonna lie… I’m actually really really excited to see him become a functioning human being lmao. The sketch of him gently grabbing Dan’s hand and them in the mirror made me hopeful for what’s to come. Gonna have to get through all his bull still but I love a good personality shift, it’s actually my favorite trope lol.
I wish I too could be the worst most unloving annoying insufferable selfish inconsiderate loser of a person and still have a perfect man be obsessed with me
Author really said “what if I take the miscommunication trope, and made it 30x more annoying than it ALREADY is? And made the main character so violently allergic to just saying what’s on his mind like a normal function human with cognitive functions, that every time he begins to speak what’s on his mind or simply hear something from someone else that’d fix his whole self-made issue, he decides to be a dumb stupid rude interrupting annoying insufferable idiot instead?! Wouldn’t that be fun?! Isn’t that such good and not lazy writing whatsoever?!”
…………… cute story though I guess lmao
Highkey not enjoying this stories direction anymore lol. Maybe it’ll get better but rn it’s like only annoying trauma porn with unlikable characters.
Absolutely hate that he’s leaving thinking he’s still at fault for a single thing that’s happened to him and that Jaekyung treating him like literal shit was warranted. But whatever, he’s out of there, Jaekyung is guilty af and at a low point in his life (although I wish he was wayyyyy lower). I know Dan isn’t gonna be living well in the 2nd season but that just means the only way to go is up both is is mental and physical well-being, and also in Jaekyungs ability to be a functioning empathetic human being with a soul. Honestly can’t wait even though this story stresses me tf out lmao
I despise Jaekyung and have been rooting for his downfall, but there’s something so unsatisfying about him losing to OTHER pieces of absolute garbage shitbags who are not only scheming losers that can’t even hide how evil they are, but ALSO have to cheat in order to win. And now once again , Dan’s gonna get blowback for something that’s not his fault whatsoever, because he just has to suffer for no reason over and over and over again. There’s just no relief or excitement or anticipation for another chapter because it’s just constant annoying frustration.
I know I just complained about Dan suffering all the time, but I feel like a more interesting result would’ve been Jaekyung immediately confronting Dan about the picture, Dan telling him the truth about rejecting the offer, and before he used the relief spray on Jaekyung, he instinctually uses it on himself burning his hand. Because it’s happening so soon before the match, Jaekyung is off his game from the anger of the opposing side plus the pain in his shoulder PLUS a slight voice in the back of his head worrying about Dan’s injury.
All of this results in him losing the match. But that’s just me and what I would’ve preferred. In reality, he’s probably gonna lose the match and with the previous thoughts of Dan getting poached, having to fight his childhood bully (?), and Dan inadvertently injuring him less than an hour before the match, he’s going to go CATATONIC on him, probably physically and emotionally hurting him very badly (and most likely sexually), which will lead to Dan quitting, granny dying, and other shitty things lmao. I’m not looking forward to any of it tbh.
I’m still waiting for Garam to mention that the VERY LAST TIME he even brought up the possible IDEA of Jaehyuk liking him, he THREW HIM to the ground, leaving him with bruises, and called him a disgusting homo… the very last time… so maybe, instead of popping out the gate like “oops hehe I actually do like you so love me now :D”, he can realize his first and only step for the time being should be to APOLOGIZE. It’s really not rocket science but he is the ultimate himbo without any of the endearing qualities or actual issues with intelligence. He’s just so self absorbed that he’s an idiot when it comes to anyone else’s emotions or lived experiences.
Praying for him to conjure up half a braincell to figure out why Garam may have not smiled at him like that and why he has to do a triathlon just to run into someone who’s actively avoiding him
Greeeeeat. Punishing the actual shitty person by targeting a passive defenseless 2nd party who doesn’t have shit to do with shit… I loooove storylines like this… definitely wouldn’t be better to just hit Jaekyung with a car or something…
Now imagine if he was just a real genuine human being for once who realized his countless mistakes and senseless cruelty, apologized, and actually put in the work to make Garam’s life easier/more enjoyable like how a privileged little shit such as Jaehyuk is capable of doing…… but nahhh convoluted nerd transformation scheme much better.
He literally flung him to the ground hard as hell, bruising the shit out of his back, completely flabbergasted and appalled at the mere question of whether or not he likes Garam before calling him a dirty homo and using him as nothing more than a convenient fleshlight, but still can’t realize why Garam would possibly not want anything to do with him??? This is a level of dense I truly can’t stand. At least the imbecile realized he did catch feelings, and may ACTUALLY makes the necessary moves to repent. Which doesn’t mean throwing out all his clothes to force him to wear an expensive sweater he has no interest in.
However, knowing this character, he may just use him liking him as an excuse to continue treating him like garbage and pushing him away because he thinks Garam “infected” him or something. The idiocy knows no bounds so I wouldn’t be surprised.
Dan getting butterflies and shit because it’s the first time he was actually allowed to actively consent before anything happened??? The first time Jaekyung actually listened to what he wanted and focused on Dan’s pleasure instead of his own??? Which only happened because Jaekyung is a lightweight drunk??? This is genuinely SAD man
I know he’s been demoted from physical therapist to fleshlight, but the way he refuses to hop off his dick is so insufferable and I truly hope this is a wake up call for him because he needs to stop being the weakest link.
It doesn’t matter how many people JK hurts, abuses, bullies, manipulates, etc. etc. etc., most of which is literally happening to him, that pedestal is still as high as ever.
Now he’s working his ass off doing deliveries all night to get the rich prick a new designer keychain for his luxury car, so he can run back in the morning to make him breakfast, so he can get verbally accosted and yelled at to do his job while actively being forced to not do his job, like for the love of god GET A GRIP. TAKE A HINT. FORM A FRACTION OF A BACKBONE.
I understand the appeal of the innocent angel characters paired with the literal devil but I can only take so much delusion and lack of self respect/self preservation…
People have been giving Ho-In the hardest time saying he’s a horrible friend and Woojin should drop him forever and deserves better… but… I can’t even blame Ho-In… like not even slightly.
They have been actively trying to piss him off just so Chinwoo could see his angry side, he’s already been cheated on by him, and now this whole situation. He’s literally not in the wrong here if he beats the shit out of Woojin because this plan was STUPID and SELFISH and POINTLESS.
“Fuck actual communication, let’s do some crazy mental warfare gaslighting shit to make my boyfriend blow a gasket, and then act shocked when he blows a gasket”
I was sitting here worried about everyone acting like Ho-In suddenly became some sort of evil violent psycho out of nowhere and poor innocent Woojin is just his helpless victim like wow. I get being worried for Woojins safety because he wasn’t actually trying to steal Chinwoo away, but Ho-in is factually not in the wrong here.
The only thing that makes characters like him work is the moment they stop being delusional assholes and start being pining obsessive whipped losers like I want him on his knees with puppy dog eyes begging for Garams affection or I’ll be forever annoyed at him lmao
“Ohhhhh BROOOOTHERRR!!! THIS GUY STINKS!!!!!!”
I hope he loses. I hope he gets fucking obliterated and the news, and his fans, and his investors tear him a fucking new one. I don’t want to victim blame but I legit want to punch a wall every time Dan fixes his lips to say shit like “oh he’s done so much for me” and “he’s probably suffering even more” like no! This privileged fuck has been using you like a fucking fleshlight to quell his own made up fucking jinx that formed out of his unhealthy obsession with being a domineering abusive prick with a power-dynamic fetish. To the point where he literally just takes you without any regard of consent or care or shit. To the point where while he forces you over a counter like you’re not a living breathing human, all you can do is hope that he doesn’t make you bleed. THIS IS ABUSE. THIS IS AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP. I bet if any of the guys at the gym found out about what he’d do to him, they’d fucking jump his evil ass. I wish we were at the point where Dan was sick of his bullshit and decided to chuck the jacket back at his dumb fucking skull when he threw it at him. I don’t care how fucking strong he is, someone needs to take a goddamn baseball cap to his knees and then see how fucking strong he feels. Matter of fact, a bullet. Like I don’t fucking care anymore, I want him to crash and burn… IN FUCKING HELL…
Fun story tho with great art
