Honestly, i’m pretty surprised people are getting annoyed at Doori lol, if anything I actually felt really bad for Doori. He’s slowly getting an inferiority complex because he thinks he isn’t as good as his Noah which really won’t help their relationship move forward if noone helps him soon. I honestly probably would’ve felt the same way as Doori, because unlike Noah who doesn’t really care about the competition, Doori on the other hand is really invested and for so many years he’s been playing to be better just to get compared to someone who was born with natural talent which basically puts all his hard work aside (noone is invalidating his hard work, but in his perspective thats how it is). I honestly really like how the author actually decided to add this in, cause this is really a normal thing which sadly happens more than often. My only complaint was when Noah and Doori had sex for the first time, Noah was clearly intoxicated and although Doori didn’t have ill intentions, it’s still counted as r//e.
I understand doori, but still, now completely ignoring Noah and refusing to explain what’s so obviously upset him is so unfair to Noah and he clearly doesn’t deserve it. It’s actually kinda annoying to me cause I feel like Noah is just gonna be expected to deal with this, stay calm and collected, and keep blindly chasing after doori, even when being given such contradictory signs (which is what is typically expected of the seme).
I don’t actually have any experience lol but I’ve read enough mangas, webtoons and online stories to know that ignoring someone for a week, no matter how traumatising the reason (which is really stupid I’ll admit - but considering a lot of the guys reasons there usually had to do with an enemy trying to kill them, Dooris problem seems way smaller in comparison ), usually ends up with either a huge fight or a break up cause the person gets so angry and apparently it’s justifiable (which I have to say makes sense to me - except for the murdering plotlines)
As a person who has lots of dating experience, I agree ignoring someone isn’t okay. But in this case, it really is a human way to respond to the problem at hand. In a way you don’t want to bother your partner whom is the cause of your problems because you might be afraid of exg. breaking up. Doori should have his own time to sort out his thoughts, and that’s when he should talk to Noah (Sorting your feelings is different from lashing out, hope he doesn’t lash out ay Noah.) cause clearly, right now Dooriis uncomfortable around Noah due to his growing inferiority complex. The best thing Noah should do isn’t accept what Doori is doing, but encourage him that everything will be alright and he will be ableto solve the problem with or without him (Noah) because although you aren’t giving advice, you’re giving the person who has a problem encouragement and even more-so if you’re their s/o.
Also, don’t worry I understand where you are coming from.
Also regarding the plots you gave, I don’t really think its a good comparison to this manhwa due to the fact it isn’t set in any extreme context in any way (disregarding the asshole). If anything try to compare these twos’ problem to human relationship problems which are usually more ‘normal’ in a sense that murder isn’t involved (specifically relationships where either the couples were able to get back to get or go separate paths due to the inferiority problem).
ButterCat and Cheshire0609, you’re definitely right! I get what you mean, I just felt really bad for Noah at the time, I know the examples I gave were weird, but that was kinda the point in that even though it doesn’t make a lot of sense (this is gonna sound confusing lol but when I said it made sense to me earlier I meant when they get angry cause they were ignored, not so much the break up or fighting part) the plot usually goes that way in whatever I’ve read (in other mangas) but that doesn’t mean this one will do the same, and I agree that other stories and webtoons (and less realistic mangas) aren’t a good comparison. (⌒▽⌒)
I honestly thought “maybe the second couple will be better than the first like always”, till I saw how much of a shitty person Taehwan was. Taehwan is such a peace of shit that he’s venting all his insecurities and traumas onto Yeonwu like chill bitch, get off that high horse. I will never recover from how horrible banana scandal is if Yeonwu and Taehwan get together. Alex, please be endgame.
Literally honestly no arc can save how terrible Taehwan is. All he sees Yeonwu as is a sex toy, and even if he does end up getting with Yeonwu, he’s probably only going to end up ab//ing Yeonwu and destroy his mental state till he passes. Taehwan needs a fucking therapist, clearly.
To those who want a dom like Taehwan, I highly recommend looking at what a healthy relationship looks like, cause Taehwan is one of the MOST TOXIC characters i’ve ever seen.
As bob the drag queen would say, Mama this is garbage. Werq
You can cancel me for saying this but he is literally a 24k purebreed scum
ppl seriously want someone like taehwan???? (⊙…⊙ )
man i do too, but can the person atleast be respectful??? like god dam.
i feel the same w yeonwu, i want to b able to satisfy my sexual desires, but man fr? yalls couldve chosen a way better respectful man
surprisingly so. probably all of them dont think of how insane he is and how abusive he is rather they just go and swoon over his good looks and his sex appeal, truly deadbeats.
glad to find some sane people who find taehwan a terrible person
Not me, i love to have patner that good on bed,but to se me less than human being? just Let me marry with my vibrator
i hear you fellow taehwan anti i srlsy hope it's not like usual bad asshole top turns into regretful and redeeming person type story and just make yeonwoo end up with alex or something..someone who actually RESPECTS and sees yeonwoo as a HUMAN BEING, but i've given up on hoping that
Those fetishes exist yes, but taehwan is literally just abusing yeonwu. My point is that, as long as the top makes sure to ask for 1. Consent 2. Is still able to make sure the play is safe (im talking about the irresponsible act he did where he left yeonwu with a couple vibrators on him.).
Honestly yeah lol. Its so obvious thats the thing theyre going for. Honestly shouldve just ended on season 1 and made a new story if this is how it goes. I dont wanna remember banana scandal as the manhwa with an unhealthy 2nd relationship but it seemsike thats how its gonna go..
RIGHT? DAMN I GAVE THIS A 5 STAR BCS OF S1 BUT I KEEP REMOVING STARS BCS OF S2 I LOST HOPE
