Old Mout Cider's Topics (43)

So I’ve read this whole thing from start to finish and have a LOT of thoughts. I was iffy about the power dynamic in place from the beginning. On one side you have a man born with a golden spoon, 31 and already a director of a huge company at that age, obviously coming from a rich chaebol family (which is what made his career advancement possible so early on.. he’s basically the heir to the conglomerate, you don’t normally become a director at 31 irl). Then you have someone much younger 23, a student, living in misery because he’s haunted by his father’s debt and hunted by loan sharks. Wonderful combination. Even for a middle class normal person it’s hard to understand the way he’s been living. You’re just used to different standards and wouldn’t date such a person because your lifestyles don’t match. With Yeomin it would be hard to do even normal things like going out to a nice restaurant from time to time, having a few vacations per year, buying each other gifts, renting a nice place together, going for grocery and clothes shopping and so on. It would be hard to get him out of the cheapstake mentality, he’s just not used to a normal lifestyle and it would take time for him to adapt even to that… Now for someone like Taeseo it’s impossible to imagine how Yeomin lives. He doesn’t understand the kind of mentality you develop living like that, the kind of struggles you went through. For Yeomin it’s his life long trauma. For Taeseo all of Yeomin’s problems are minor insignificant issues that can be easily fixed with pocket money. Like I bet all clothes he bought for Yeomin combined are close to the amount his debt is ☠ Like that’s Balenciaga, Hermes, Channel etc right there. Their worlds are so different that I was thinking from the start that they don’t work well as a couple and I don’t get why someone like Taeseo wanted to play/get involved with a kid like Yeomin (I mean I get why but what an asshole). He’s clearly not interested in anything Yeomin is sharing with him. He’s at a different stage in life not only due to age but also because of social standing. What’s there to even talk about with Yeomin? This was even more obvious after he paid off the debt for Yeomin and the kid could attempt to live a normal life finally. You’d think that now everything will be perfect. But it was just weird. While Taeseo was preparing to go to work, had a lot of business meetings/dinners daily, Yeomin was going to university, working on group projects and preparing for exams. The contrast was so stark that something felt wrong about the dynamic. Like you’re at different stages in life. One is not interested in your childish university stories cause he’s over that already and the other can’t understand your businessman lifestyle. Like the man told you 100 times that he doesn’t eat dinner at home (clearly because he has dinner in town, obviously to discuss business). Embarrassing not to get the hint and I understand why it could be annoying for someone like Taeseo. And it only got worse when Yeomin tried to live like a normal 23 year old would, going to university , meeting up with friends after classes. His social life basically in danger, headed towards extinction because Taeseo’s old ass clearly had other expectations from him. He was expecting Yeomin’s time to be dedicated to his needs. You know after a day in corporate, full of tiring never ending meetings and annoying work it’s nice to have someone on standby you can just fuck. And yes, although Taeseo did develop some feelings he still HAS been treating Yeomin as a sugar baby, as an easy fuck. Which is why I don’t understand how Yeomin fell that hard. I mean I get why. Because of the pitiful situation he was in he saw Taeseo’s bare minimum effort (yeah for him it was nothing, that’s why he liked Yeomin cause he was a low effort fuck) as a saviour hero full of kindness type of behaviour when Taeseo just wanted an easy fuck

It’s been so long that I was remembering this was finished already and I read it so I was confused with the notice. But when trying to remember how it ended I couldn’t and that’s when I realised

I love the art so much and they’re so sweet with each other. This would have been perfect if there was no child marriage involved. This way it feels like the ml got attached to mc as a child because he happened to be the one to take care of him in that period. Low-key high key grooming and idk why authors are so obsessed with this type of story lately. Like it would have been way better if they actually fell in love with each other normally as adults without any type of weird attachments. Just my two cents. Still gonna read this story and will try to ignore the age gap and forget how they met because the art is way too gorgeous and I like them as an adult couple

Does anyone know where we could read the censored version? My friend is uncomfortable with explicit scenes but I wanna recommend this series to her..

I just want to see him go to the top university he got admitted to, study, make friends. I want to see him get the degree he worked towards all his life. Getting a good job, good money, building a good life and career for himself. Find true love, be in a healthy relationship. He deserves so much better. Why did he have to get involved with a psychopath

Can' wait for season 5 official translation to appear

I like the golden retriever bf material guy. He's so pretty when he smiles I would melt too

Those fight scenes were so bad. Who would throw their sword while facing a monster like that??? especially a knight, cause last time I checked wasn't wolfie a knight? Then suddenly the crown prince was teleported in front of the monster and the knight took two students (one unharmed mind you cough cough) and was about to flee with them?? Like Maythan can walk?? And okay the crown prince might be strong but he is royalty the first thing to do in that situation would be protecting the crown prince not shrug and say it's okk bro he'll manage. I liked this story a lot in the beginning but it's starting to suffer from weak writing. Hope it picks up again...

The way I was internally screaming for him to concentrate and guide him already. Like what is he even doing in critical moments taking his sweet time trying to talk with someone unconscious. Do your job and leave ffs

So your're doing all this bdsm stuff with someone who clearly has no idea what that is (does not know what roleplay is, safe word etc) and it's cleary scared even of normal sexual interacttions. All this while not explaining your intentions at all or even asking your partner if they wanna engage in bdsm play with you. I'm sorry but there is no logical explanations for this. He says he thought uke knew what was happening. What exactly gave him that impression cause maybe I'm crazy but everything showed otherwise....
