How do we feel about the new pairings. From the first chapter, I was super into the side characters, but I didn’t think they’d be coupled up with others. The motorcycle helmet guy is maybe hiding that he’s an anomaly to give anomalyXanomaly dynamic. I think the tall guy is a normie to give normieXanomaly dynamic. Can’t lie, I was super excited to see our main couple exit the mysterious box. I hope we see them soon.
There's a part of me that kind of expects the author to make the two other couples get an easy/simple room requirement to contrast to show just how unlucky Seungchan is ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Also, I know I'm in the ultra-minority here, but I HATE when authors switch focus to other couples. I came here for this one couple - don't lure me in with them, build up to a climax (lol), and the leave me hanging indefinitely for a resolution while you explore a bunch of other stuff (╯°Д °)╯╧╧ (Also also, I have this annoying thing where my dumbass brain only allows me to like dark-haired bottoms, so if the side couples have a light-haired bottom, it's even less enjoyable for me. I end up just skimming through/skipping entirely, waiting for it to be over & return to the main.)
I started rereading and this is the first time I’ve noticed that there’s a little boy with the bleached hair strand. I’m shaken up!! He only shows up briefly in the 6th page. I thought it was about the sister lying about being class president, so I never noticed him! Did we know about him already??
So I don't know if this theory is confirmed yet, but I read some people hypothesize that the boy shown with the blonde streak is more so foreshadowing events that happened in the past rather than depicting the boy's involvement in anything sexual. I would that the theory is correct because it would be really sad if the boy was actually being abused.
The kid with the same blonde streak as Myeonggi shows up in chapter 16. Now, I just had a revelation. While looking for that reference I came across chapter 34. In chapter 34 the Uncle's kids go to the same school as Myeonggi's siblings.Is it possible that the Uncle could somehow interact with Myeonggi's siblings? It makes me sick thinking about it but is it possible that the Uncle could find out about Myeonggi's involvement with Jingi, find out that his kids go to the same school as Myeonggi's siblings, and use them to lure Jingi into a trap. If the other prisoners were able to use Myeonggi's attachment to Jingi to lure him out then it isn't above the uncle to use Myeonggi's siblings to lure Jingi into a trap. GGGOODDD I hope I'm wrong.
The bottom’s thinspo daydreams make me concerned despite it all being fictional. Thin can look healthy, but the author really romanticizes the drawings of ribs and hip bones poking out. With that said, I like their dynamic. Neither has too much power in the relationship and I think they can be a versatile couple I’d actually like it the author went that direction.
I don’t think they’re romanticising it. It’s differently depicted for each character, in my eyes this is likely a hey I’m gonna experiment with dynamics and different body types sorta thing, there’s no like…romanticism going on? From what I can tell. He’s skinny cause he’s into fashion, and models have always been pushed to unhealthy skinny limits, plus I like that you can tell he’s unhealthily skinny, it’s unique you don’t see that type of body depicted very often, unhealthy or not, drawing it like this is more of a rep than a romanticisation
I do agree with it being representation instead. I shouldn’t have been so harsh on the author’s intentions.
I guess I felt that way because we read it through our MC’s POV. The unhealthy thin bodies have sparkles around them. MC referred to ML as an overweight pig (though MC is becoming more and more supportive). I also don’t see why ML being a model for the boyfriend is so rejected. When a focus on one body type gets put down so much, the other feels uplifted. I’m still looking forward to the development of these two characters though!
I think the sparkles are likely cause it’s mentioned that thin bodies are mc’s type??? I think. But yeah he should totally just let him model for him idk why it’s an issue but we’ll see. I think it’s likely that being bigger is put down BECAUSE it’s set where it’s set. They’re not incredibly progressive there. Plus ml is winning cause it’s working out for his career so he’ll stay winning regardless lmao






new guy is creepy
