fingers crossed this continues going so deliciously. i love their fucked up dynamic - but mostly i love how seonu is a guy who gets what he wants!! also, the art style is even more beautiful than before!!! what incredible improvement

just binged this in one sitting it's so good. my favorite toxic yaoi dynamic & it's actually well written? seonu is clever & cunning & can stand up for himself, while simultaneously acknowledging that he wants love? sion is tormented & traumatized & aware of how twisted he is, hoping that someone will come along with the will to love him anyway? sign me up dawg!! KEEP IT COMIN!!

i may belong to the small few who generally enjoy this manhwa, idk i like to read toxic problematic stuff, i can't help it but the introduction of a side couple into such a complicated, tormented narrative feels really... irresponsible, and lazy. this was my exact issue with viewfinder, too; to shift from a genuinely interesting pair of complex characters that we've followed for however many chapters to two people i literally Do Not Give a Fuck About is really... frustrating! i don't need to waste chapters following after a side couple that fails to serve the story in any meaningful way; i'm here for sooyoung, to watch him navigate his situation & (hopefully) escape it.

i just think a side couple is the last thing this story needs. sooyoung & jihwan are easily compelling enough on their own. anything that takes attention away from their quite necessary development moving forward seems to me like an incredibly foolish decision, narratively speaking

i'm not understanding why yeonsoo's No's and Stop's aren't being taken seriously despite joohwan literally LOOKING UP SAFE WORDS and being upset yeonsoo didn't even know what they were never mind have them in his prior relationship w that freak ass master guy. like he's laying there crying saying Stop and I Don't Want To and joohwan keeps going like it's a joke. and is now... performing nonconsensual somnophilia??

like it's yaoi manhwa the bar for consent is in hell i get it but MAN i'm so exasperated by the bottom in these contexts begging to stop and it being brushed off by them either later revealing "i didn't actually want you to stop...!" (despite the top not even bothering to confirm that in the moment) or the top saying "why would i stop when you were enjoying it so much?" BECAUSE CONSENT. THAT'S IT. LET'S JUST TRY A LITTLE BIT HARDER TO HAVE CONSENT!!!

the fall off of one summer day will be studied by yaoi scientists for generations

IT'S SO PEAK im having a heart attack oughh

I LOVE SLOW BURN THIS WAS SO WORTH THE WAIT im literally throwing up and crying

i missed these little guys so bad wahhh

i listened to 'i guess' by mitski for ch87 instead of the theme song. like an idiot. i'm crying and throwing up right now why is this actually the best piece of media ever put on the planet earth

but actually. as someone who has dealt with the harrowing reality of near-constant suicidality in the past, watching yoohan navigate it himself is... so fucking devastating, so painstakingly relatable, and because of its relatability... very cathartic. i understand him; i want him to have a chance to get better, too. all i can do is hope and pray he gets the happy ending he truly, genuinely deserves. preferably with jay. pls and thank you

now i've got to go blow my nose for the next six hours straight!! maybe scream into my pillow a bit who knows!!! i love you yoohan!! fuck!!

YOOHAN PLEASE PLEASE YOU ARE SO DESERVING OF LOVE AND LIFE !!!! god this manhwa finds new ways to break my heart every week

i just read this whole thing in one sitting & i'm so obsessed... like it's actually perfect, my heart also feels like it's gonna burst outta my mouth
