I just reread the whole thing up to the official translation and OMG, this has such a great flow. I feel like when you’re reading the chapters as they update, because of all the breaks in between, you don’t fully appreciate just how well written it is.
I LOVE how the author treats Shin and Jake as equal partners and, most importantly, as actual grown adults. They literally match each other’s freak in the most consensual way possible, and I LOVE IT!! I love when characters are on equal footing and there’s no babyfication of the bottom. I hate when authors write grown-ass adult men like children!
I also love how we slowly see Jake get softer throughout the chapters without his character doing a complete 180, and the same goes for Shin. They both stay true to who they are at their core, even as they realize there’s actual love and real feelings between them.
I seriously can’t wait to see how they navigate living “normal” lives together. I really hope we get to see that!
It's sad when really good stories and complex characters get reduced to a love-triangle rivalry by fans. This story had so much more going for it, great writing, layered characters, and a compelling plot.
I love Jo, but the way some fans infantilize him is weird. He's a grown man who, honestly, in my opinion, came out ahead in the end. YW and TJ's history runs so deep and dark that I don't think someone who grew up in a loving, stable home like Jo could ever truly understand it. And the way Jo's obsession with YW was starting to take him down a darker path was honestly not good for him.
Also, part of the reason YW even started becoming interested in Jo was because he saw the same obsessive look in Jo's eyes that TJ once had. That parallel felt very intentional. And to me at least shows that TJ was always end game.
Overall, I thought it was a great story, and I hate seeing fans tear apart the author just because their favorite didn't end up being chosen. Personally, I was rooting for YW to find peace on his own, but whether he ended up with Jo or TJ didn't change how good the story was!
