Kangjin is clearly In love with mafia guy based on raws I don’t know how the author will make him reconcile with jungkwon. Jungkwon is using the blonde and imagining him as kangjin even making him buy same perfume which is gross. His also a miserable guy who needs to get over his useless pride If he truly wants the uke back.
The black haired dude is in love with the red haired dude and using the blonde haired dude. Dropping this.
So I've read the raws and this is just my inference:
Basically, both the uke and the red-haired friend liked each other. They are more than just friends who experienced tough times together (mostly the red hair guy had a sad background). Their bond is so deep that they did not want to label themselves as boyfriends for it might affect their friendship (I'm guessing this part). The uke has a hard time opening up to his feelings because of his character. Since the brown-haired seme showed up, he has to decide whether to let go of his friendship to the red-haired friend or pursue his feelings to the brown-haired seme. Although he accepted to date (?) the brown-haired seme, the uke still can't get over his feelings to his friend.
That's all I can guess for now, still waiting for the next chapters....
PS: I like how realistic this can be TBH
I get that he has a hard time opening up but his now hurting two people the red head seme by not being honest with his feelings and just ditching him, plus the brown haired seme who is oblivious and thinks everything is all good. Judging by the cover brown haired will be end game but even still I can’t deal.
His not really an asshole... all things considered. But if you marry a girl who stutters and clearly been mentally abused you should probably try to adjust your attitude. I go from yaoi to straight romance and it’s always the same ole toxic nonsense. I’m close to giving up on manga.
He might not know explicitly she was abused but the signs are there.. her fear of abandonment, stuttering, second guessing herself constantly no way he can’t think something is up with her. His in love and that’s all great but it takes more than love to truly and understand someone and how to deal with them.
In real life even people in love will not realize if theres a trauma in a person. Some other suicide and they didnt know because they are good at masking their emotion. In the case of Max for sure his father and the people around the dukedom hide the fact and cover it up with lies. No matter how smart the person is if its covered up, you will believe the lie. Don't you?
Thank u angel *throw visual kisses. I'm a fan of Max, I dont want to be a spoiler to anyone bcoz I read the novel. But Max personality improves as the story goes and I want to think outside of the box. Most readers here just blame Riftan or said bad things about Max when in fact they dont know anything. If you read the story you must be in the position of the character and not just get mad with the characters.
Its just too sad that some reader always lean to the ML (Riftan is a hero but he is not superman lol). Riftans character is quite realistic, how can Riftan help the FL, if the FL itself doesn't open up. But I will said this, Max will have a big character development and she will open up little by little to Riftan.
I will never get the image of him cackling like a mad man as he raped the uke whilst he was passed out disgusting.
