genuinely hilarious chaejun ended up developing a crush and then lashing out in response to his own feelings twice towards the same person
i've read many a badly written story in my time, but this one has got to be up there with some of the worst i have ever read. post 2020s, it is genuinely inexcusable to be writing rape as a means of romantic development between two characters. it is the certified mark of a terrible writer, without fail. you write something like this and you tell me without directly saying so that you don't know what it means to write anything, much less a story. "he's evil because he's a rapist and an abuser; he's innocent because he's naive; he's romantic because he likes makoto." so shallow even a newborn wouldn't be in danger of drowning in it. every single character is fully devoid of personality or compelling (or sensible!) motivations. there are ways to write smut-centric stories without making it miserable for the readers every possible step of the way. i feel like i've been punished for even giving this my time of day.
i'm no believer that every story needs to be some highbrow masterpiece to be worthy of existence, but both the author and the publisher should be embarrassed they put this out in the world for people to look at. if you're considering reading this, i would sooner recommend watching paint dry to achieve the same effect.
"car accident genius orphan" words that have never been strung together consecutively in history
They really need to put it together.
I'm just wondering how the hell they remember him when he was so young
seems like a plot/writing convenience situation more than anything imo. narratively, if they've all lived in the same town or area since childhood then they would naturally remember something like that, though i can't remember if this is the case for the people in this school. if it isn't the case, then the author probably just wants to draw attention to both how enigmatic and tragic minyoung is in the eyes of others, and how, on top of his beauty, it really draws people into his snare.
I think it's the latter, it gives that 'magical MC who everyone knows' vibes. That he's popular and all
i have seldom ever hated a character this much in my whole life, my fucking god. someone please hurry up and kill this fucking FREAK i'm so angry .
I LOVE THEM!!!!! i hope jinhyeong tells his father to kill himself next
jinhyeong was crazy for even trying to leave like that, like brother don't you know by now that uyun's temper is worse than yours when he's angry i understand that he's never had a person willing to make major sacrifices just to stay with him so it's difficult for him to conceptualize himself being more valuable for another person's future than any job prospects. when you're mentally unstable from being abused and you haven't received proper support for it, even when you're growing, it's easy to fall back into bad habits because they're all you've known, so i do feel for him. they're so sweet, i love them so much. easily #1 bl couple for me.
FINALLY!!!!! i've been waiting a million years for someone to kill that stupid bitch and shut him up. god.
upeoka, for what it's worth, your translations are clear and concise on top of the effort you put into cleaning the panels. you do all of this in a relatively short amount of time and i'm eternally grateful that you share your gift of translation and localization with us to get these chapters to us sooner. of course, only you can decide the best course of action for yourself, but if you would lend your ear to me and others, i beg you pleaseeeee don't stop translating this. the work you do is meaningful to many of us here. we love u upeoka #ourshiningupeoka
as an aside, i literally called this exact situation months and months ago. i just knew that jinhyeong's father would be the final obstacle standing between jinhyeong and his future with uyun and that the only way he would ever separate from uyun would be if his father threatened to cause him harm. obviously uyun is (rightfully) furious, but i hope the conversation they have will inspire jinhyeong to make the correct decision and properly stand up to his father one last time. truly the only reason why jinhyeong should ever return to his father's house should be to tell him he should disown him and that he doesn't identify himself as his son because this is insane.
i will say that i find it sweet in its own way that uyun knew exactly what jinhyeong was about to do because he loves him that deeply and knows him so well, well enough to know that jinhyeong would hurt himself in such a flimsy trap in his hurry to leave lmao.
You’re so sweet
why thank you~ i mean it, we really appreciate what you do so please don't give up my friend
seokjun you're about to piss me the fuck off bro. yechan is not a good person to be certain, but seokjun acts so damn helpless like he isn't the one making his own choices like omfg dude get a grip !!!! and to top it all off on the shit cake, he's going to see the guy who almost raped him On Purpose like he had no other options. he had to have been dropped on his head as a baby. if u touch his head it's probably all kinds of misshapen in the back.
btw if i even smell a threesome with the literal rapist on the horizon i am wrapping this up. my time on this planet is both short and finite, i don't have it in me to waste it on trash like that. i think out of every person reading this story you could probably count on one hand the amount of people who want that to happen, maybe two or three if i'm being especially generous.
Omg fr. Why is he acting like he has no choice
Brochacho, you left once you can leave again.
Thank you for putting into words why I'm so frustrated with him. I called it in another comment " shojo protag behaviour "
Literally the mention of a threesome caused an uproar and even now especially because we're seeing dickhead pedo rapist more. And it won't be threesome it'll be rape. Author pissing me off badly
i can't take it anymore seriously, there's a limit to how pathetic a character can be before i start getting mad grown as hell and crying because he was the one who chose to masturbate the entire night, is this some kind of joke.
the author better not do it like for all its flaws, the story is still good or at the very least entertaining but nobody here will have anything to smile about if they do that lmao i will genuinely crash out
Legit. Grown man with a job and degree he needs to finish
I hope so bad they don't do this shit, but considering their track record idk. Imma crash out too if they do lol, about to start a revolution fr, cuz loved this story so much, got so excited when it went long form, for them to pull ts. Gonna end up in a psych ward fr
literally like get the hell up!!!
it's truly the worst when i have to drop what was a perfectly good story because the author wanted to be an edgy freak like grow up omfg.
Can't they be sensible for one second
Ain't nobody asked for this, it was going so well too
muyeol genuinely needs to be killed and i am dead serious. i've truly had enough of this now. why does this fucker still draw breath and take up space in any of these panels, it's such a fucking waste.
no joke i would genuinely cry with joy if he got hit by a car and died. i don't care what it takes, just get him out of this fucking story already literally nobody likes him!!
