I understand he’s supposed to be a villain and a bad guy. But do authors not realize there are other ways to portray villainy rather than rape? The term villain has just become code for rapist now when it comes to manhwa. Could work with so many elements and plot points revolving around being a bad guy but everyone always wants to come back to just making the ‘bad guy’ a rapist like omfg I’m so tired
I wish he got angry over the fact that he got literally assaulted on the regular both sexually and physically by jaekyung. To me it just felt like he kept blaming himself and attributed it to “oh he doesn’t love me” baby girl he was raping you. I wanted to see Kim Dan confront him more about all that but up until the end it just felt like he was blaming himself my poor little baby. Kim Dan deserves so much more than what was given to him.
Yeah. I can’t really see Jaekyung cry and take it seriously cause we never address the absolute trauma he imposed on Dan. It feels superficial. I’m still resentful of Jaekyung, and it sends a bad message that you can abuse someone, then change on them and that’s enough to make up for all the previous shit. Compared to BJ Alex, this feels unearned.
I feel like this is one of those scenarios where she just felt too much pressure from misogynistic societal norms to have a child to be deemed legible in the world. So many women with successful careers and significant accomplishments still can’t escape patriarchal society forcing them to essentially become baby producing factories without a care of what they want to do. She shouldn’t have abandoned her child like that but I just can’t help feeling for her. She was kind of pushed into that position of bad parent by her deadbeat ex husband and society.










I don’t get it. At least Donggyun from BJ Alex had a backbone and stood up for himself. So wtf happened to Kim Dan for Mingwa to just forcibly remove his spine like that. Wdym “we both hurt each other” NO BITCH!!! 102 chapters and Kim Dan blamed himself till the end for Jaekyung’s anger and raping him like omfggg please stand up.
