honestly the first chap and whole idea is rlly interesting and i kinda get like its suppose to be an irony of mc never being able to escape ‘the film’ like how he cant escape being in the cult/his past but its done so messily. the idea is there but the mc is just a mess. his actions are done only to move the plot not bc they make sense to his character or literally anything else unless his personality is being a two face dude who forgets his goal every chapter.
could have been a good psychological webtoon too if they focused on the characters & their emotions. felt like if they didnt know what else to add, rather than exploring the complex emotions mc was feeling, they added sex instead
theyre so oblivious its not hurting its choking on a stick annoying genuinely how tf did they stay that way for 7yrs holy shit
i read the novel & wanted more like it felt too short,, the manhwa is a rlly close adaptation to it too so im expecting it to be like that too but hopefully they add more
also yuri states in the novel he realized & fell inlove with xinlu when he was an adult, but those scenes of yuri saying hes inlove as panels of xinlu drowning as a kid appearing still are weird as hell. i still think the age gap and first meet is weird but IG them being attracted to e/o as adults makes it a little more okayish
i think its still a fun read overall,, i heard this was more like a character study for the author i dont think its perfect or anything but the mcs get u hooked and especially their relationship since its so ambiguous until the ending. theyre not entirely healthy nor toxic jst very grey imo (both characters & their relationship). i think thats why its entertaining.
Is this one as long as passion? If so im gonna marinate it even longer
No there are only 2 volumes with few side stories. It has been some time I have last read this but I think this had like 24-25 chapters you can read this in sammy and passion site just type the above name in google and there is a password which is also easy.
how much of the story is already done? like more than half or something? do you remember?
I don't think a lot is left
nope its close to finishing i wanna say like maybe 30+ more chaps(?) like its on its final arc rn
miss them everyday i need more of them everyday genuinely no couple does it like them i love how unreliable soohyun is as a narrator & how unlabeled n complex their emotions + relationship are
Is it messed up and like one doesn’t really deserve the other but they love each other anyway?
Or is it wholesome in the end and a good read
its a dark romance so i’d say it depends on what u consider messed up but the topics the manhwa touches on are messed up,, imo i think its somewhat ‘messed up’ but worth as their care for each other is mutual & so is their relationship
black haired is obsessed and possessive with the blonde since high school & its a complex feeling of love and hate but he more jst wants to keep the blonde to himself and for him to hit rock bottom with him. i dont wanna spoil too much but id say its worth 20 chaps at least to understand it & ending is good
Sick. That’s sm better than what I thought. I was worried it was gonna be like locked up with very little feeling of redemption(づ￣ ³￣)づ
