Damn, the omega really using his pheromones like a drug to force himself on the alpha… not sure how to feel about that
Role reversal, when we asked for dominant bottoms this not we asked ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Awh, that’s kinda sad.
She says she and her ex husband have nothing in common but they are both soft introverts who could make such a lovely couple (like all of those cute side couples or the loving parents of the main character). I think it’s the first manhwa I’ve read where the ex husband isn’t villainized at all. He’s just got a meek personality and can’t stand his ground.
But at the same time, their marriage WAS political. They had a comfortable life, the passion they lacked in their love life, he found in leading the family business, and she in raising their child. But you can’t just force yourself to like or desire someone you don’t. Even if they are a wonderful person, even if you would selfishly LIKE to hold onto them because you know their love or commitment could give you a cozy and stable life… that’s just not how it works. ╥﹏╥
Just because you can write something doesn’t mean you should type of story
Man, I love the fan-made translations. “Sorry to interrupt, but I have no idea what he’s talking about” (● ˃ロ˂)੭⁾⁾ NO, LOVE, YOU’RE DOING GREAT
Man, I’m kind of struggling to get through this one and I’m at chapter 37!!! It took me like 4 days to get there and I felt like I would be at around chapter 15 or something…
Not much happening, the art is pretty, the smut is good, I liked that little domination play the MCs have… But at the same time I’m not buying their characters at all.
FL doesn’t show much character for how she is portrayed as this queen of the society type of lady in the beginning.
ML is boring, his only personality trait is liking the FL and his love isn’t even believable, it kind of happened put of nowhere (fell for her at the first sight cause she was showing a human fucking emotion and now I will abandon everything I have to be with her for no damn reason type of romance).
They have no chemistry outside of bed, their interactions and conversations are just plain and unremarkable (and they met like three times in those 37 chapters).
The political drama is repetitive, unimaginative and boring. So far the villains show no motives and purpose, the princess is just plain evil so we have to hate her and that’s it.
The only character I’m kind of vibing with is that man-child future duke. Sucks that he has a mentality of a five years old competing for toys with the ML but he’s a cunning smartass in an enjoyable way.
I think I showed more agent skills when convincing my parents I was sober after coming back from a party I shouldn’t have drank at than the MC on a mission to thwart a terrorist organization’s plans.
(at ch 79) Wow… There were times when I didn’t really want the main leads to be each with other at the beginning of the story, but I would usually warm up to them as the story progresses. It’s the first time I wish they just stop and move on at the very end. It’s not a bad read, we’re complicated creatures, I can see the characters points and emotions, I don’t hate any of them. I just… don’t root for their relationship at all at this point. I almost want to stop 10 chapters before the end of the main story so I DON’T see them get together.
When the side stories are better than the actual story lol. (I mean, it’s just that the drama got too repetitive at certain point).
Kinda bummed w didn’t get to see Yirim get back to skating though… Just this one sneak peak scene. Wished they showed it in the side stories.
I agree.
I have such insanely mixed feelings about him… TT I would have never guessed that he was such an obsessive psycho in the first few chapters lol. The thing is, his behaviors would be a total red flag if the other party wasn’t interested. And even in a relationship, if my partner acted that way I would run for the hills and never look back. But since MC LIKED how he expressed his affection through obsession, enjoyed the attention and it stroked his ego …I guess it’s fine? As long as the relationship dynamic truly works for the people involved, I have nothing to complain about as an onlooker.
The only issue I have and I am SO MAD they didn’t show how it was resolved: was ML hiding from the MC that his family and friends know he’s in a gay relationship. Open obsession, stalking, jealousy, being controlling - whatever, the MC knows he acts this way and consents, heck, even enjoys it. But he can’t be ok with something he doesn’t know about. ML claims he did it to protect him and because he didn’t want to stress the MC out but bffr: he’s keeping him entirely dependent on himself. MC has no idea that he has a support system in case anything goes wrong with their relationship. What could possibly make him anxious about knowing that the people he values know how he lives his life, accept it and support him?
Finished this after 6 years and as much as I was suffering from a second lead syndrome back then (though I had no idea he was ACTUALLY the 2nd lead, I’ve secretly thought the brother is an impossible ending), I gotta say… Upon rereading it all at once, it was kinda obvious that’s how it’s going to end. No idea how I haven’t seen the utter lack of chemistry and feelings on the MCs side towards K before. I was hopeful that MC would gradually heal and move on with a new lover who also grew to love him with time but he always kept his distance, never left an opening, too preoccupied with Jowoon. So yeah. Idk how I feel about the ending, I’ve just accepted the story as is, it was okay. You just can’t get too invested and be an impartial witness to their feelings.
