It's probably DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL STORY (since i know Taesung and this girl probably have some sort of agreements and stuff) but i just need to get it out from my heart cause i often saw this kind of route in BL manhwa/manga/manhua
Idk if it's just me, but I don't quite like it when i read some BL and then the top choose to engage or marry a woman even if both parties agree to it for each other sake or whatever, like sometimes the woman knew the reason why the top need to do that and knew that he's gay yadayada, or sometimes both the male couple knew and the woman was like, "yeah sure, I'll help"
BUT!!! BUT!!! HERE'S THE THING, most of the time when i read BL, it's just the top's decision, like... he didn't tell their partner, they keep it hidden and thought, "I'm doing this for your sake too!" (Yeah but u didn't tell them so how would they know lol) and act surprised when the bot actually getting angry, insecure or sad abt the whole situation (i mean who doesn't....) in the worse case scenario, i remember one manhwa that i read before when the bottom literally attempt to take his own life because the top CAN'T comminute for shit and getting engaged (deserve by the way, the top is kinda selfish and dumb for that)
SOMETIMES!!!! it's EVEN WORSE cause the woman herself didn't knew that his fiancé/husband is gay, has a male lover, she didn't know that she's just a cover-up
Honestly I just don't really vibe with a trope/route/arc like this... when the top make their bottom feeling insecure or leaving him questioning whether they're worthy or not LIKE I JUST CAN'T especially the part where the bottom FIND OUT ABOUT THE WHOLE ENGAGEMENT FROM TABLOID, TV, NEWS, INTERNET OR STUFF BXKDHDJSBDJ LIKE AAAAAAAAA— I CAN'T FUCKING IMAGINE THE PAIN
Please please please author-nim, make the wife-cashing-crematorium arc SATISFIED FOR US
(yeah they can't read this ofc, but I'll manifest it )

Since they're using translation machine in their ears, Isagi heard Teddy called him with "yoichi-san" then is there any possibility, that Teddy called him "Mr. Yoichi" in English? Like... You know... the equivalent word of "-san"? ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Idk but i found that really cute (≧∀≦)
People like Jun is seriously a cancer to a group, istg. There's at least ONE member like this in every group
I always feel like this type of people could just debut as a soloist or sum, like you're rich RICH, what are you doing bruhhh, just do whatever u want as long as you don't drag innocent people into it?! So if you're fucked up, you're on your one. But if a problematic individual is on a group? It's a different story. Sometimes they choose to BRING THE WHOLE GROUP DOWN WITH THEM like mf, you are the problem?!!
Sadly this phenomenon is not that hard to find in the kpop idol industry. After ruining the whole group reputation and act like a victim, manipulate the shit out of the media, smearing the image of each members & made the members traumatized so bad to a point they want to commit, that one member can act like nothing happen. Jun is that one member, he deserves to get stoned to death, idk what y'all saying. That dude is a fucking criminal for me
The dynamic between the CEO of 10BILLION and the singers/producers in that label make me remember about that one comedy skit from dingo, where Swings a.k.a Moon Ji-hoon (the founder & CEO) was forced to do a "nico nico nii~" by Kid Milli (he's like one of the youngest rapper that signed under Swings' label)
Author-nim must be into khh/krnb and idols fandom cause i understand some references they put in here i mean... I could probably be wrong about this but some of em like:
1. Seungmin's company named being "10BILLION" is like a pun from a real company/label called "1LLIONAIRE" (by The Quiett and Dok2)
2. In chapter 27, the singers' names: "zian, rotto" could also be a pun from the real singers: Zion.T and Loco since they have a pretty similar pronunciation when you say their name in Korean. In fact, Zion.T and Loco has a song together that quite popular back then, called "It’s Been a While (오랜만이야)"
3. Well for this part, i probably don't need to mention this since you guys know this already but "Drop the Money" (the show that Woo Seungmin in) is a pun for "Show Me the Money" (SMTM) and his being known as "vrom vrom" oppa, could also be a pun from a viral songs from that show (could be VVS or VVIP, idk which one lol hahaha)
Also since Woo Seungmin is from Brazil, here's one of "highschool rapper" contestants who's also from Brazil (shameless promotion hahaha) https://youtu.be/JOHBK3j_og0?si=M-nG-4Ai-HNNL-Ie
