I'm confused, i'm on chapter 30 and I can't even read it anymore because like isn't myungha just constantly getting sexually assaulted and raped by the ML at night??? Why the hell is no one talking about this??? Seriously, I feel like fucking crap. Everyone keeps saying this is a gem and the ML is a green flag and like yeah, during the daytime maybe, but it doesnt change anything??? This really should have come with a massive content warning of my fucking god. I really don't get it. I read this expecting an actual green flag and real consent but this doesn't really count in my book....
I half agree with you.. Yes myungha is getting assualted but the ML doesn't know.. He doesn't know what he is doing at night.. And the other characters for the sake of thr ML they refuse to tell what the ML is doing to myungha.. Once he finds out what he is doing to myungha he hates himself.. He is genuinely disgusted with himself.. I mean till ch 30 doesn't give you much plot answers... I feel like you should push through it.. That's what I did.. I wouldn't say it's like 5/5 but it is well written
Whatever this "being" is clearly had absolutely no understanding of human relationships and boundaries.... to "it," there probably is no difference at all between siblings and lovers and friends... in any case, it probably determined that the easiest way to get itself into as close a place to the MC as possible is by becoming family. Since it's true that in society, immediate family like parents and siblings have the most importance to most people, if this being wanted to be as close to the MC as possible, creating a position as his "brother" and "changing" the world around them to fit this new reality would be the best plan to accomplish his goal.
Frankly, I think the only thing this being told the truth about is anything related to his "love" for the MC, which is also not actual love but obsession, fixation, and a desire for possession.
This is an excellent psychological thriller! Absolutely not a romance! But it's interesting so far, I'm curious where it will go!
This reminds me of that one straight webtoon with a similar premise, where the MC wakes up to find herself married to a stranger who doesn't have a human face ever. And then the strange things pile up of course, but honestly, "from the burnt ashes" is already way darker than that one...
I also think this being has been watching the MC for a long time before this, possibly since that accident the MC had as a child. I mean, there's no way his abusive and neglectful patents suddenly turned over a new leaf for no reason... this is, in my opinion, absolutely the doing of the ML.
Why he hadn't weaseled his way into the MC's life sooner is a mystery though...
i thought of that story too!!
This is very well said!
