To be fair this “review” is just of season one because I couldn’t bring myself to continue reading.
For me, hyeonjin was just too unserious and pompous. He treated everything so casually but in a disingenuous way. I kept waiting for the ball to drop, like waiting for hyeonjin to finally show his true colors. At one point jaewon even mentions how hyeonjin treats everything too casually and yet nothing changes. I understand he has no ulterior motive but he just seems disingenuous and I can’t get passed that.
Like jaewon seems like a fully fleshed out character while hyeonjin gives off fuck boy vibes despite constantly confessing and nothing more. Jaewon has reason to be conflicted. He has reason to be upset. He has reason to be cautious. Hyeonjin just silences and soothes him with sex but never addresses anything.
Maybe season two gets better but I have little interest to continue reading .
Well!! In first few episodes Jaewon already told that Hyeonjin is nonchalant, even after being unserious on many points, he have always expressed his feelings towards genuine and is always serious about his work, Hyeonjin literally left his job just to follow Jaewon, maybe actions speaks louder than words
At first, that’s how I thought too. Like hes wasnt a character of so many words but he was of action. But then there was little to no action or words from Hyeonjin, just sex. And then it keeps being brought up that he’s so amazing and smart. So leaving his job to go to another wouldn’t have been a big deal. The more I read, the less it seemed like Hyeonjin cared. But maybe I just read it wrong/missed something or it can gets better later on. But overall I couldn’t get past how nonchalant and uncaring he seemed.
Ohh okay
It’s actually comical how all of the interesting plot points in this piece are never addressed. There is no actual resolution but they get their happily ever after and it’s so cute lol it’s so weird. You never find out why Heesu was actually interested in saha initially. You never find out about the sleep walking. You never find out about the divine power thing. You never find out why the brother was getting better. The rape scene in chapter 32 is never spoken of and is completely glossed over. The only storyline that you actually get answers to is was how the brother died.
Side stories are quite fun as they don’t add or take away anything from the actually story
I can’t say I disliked or liked the story. It feels very unfinished but at the same time it gets randomly tied up nicely.
Dropped at chapter 50. The plot is somewhat interesting but it’s all very confusing. All of the “sex” scenes are harsh and violent. Even if the acts were supposedly consensual. The first “sexual” encounter was rape, no matter how the author tried to throw a in an inconspicuous flashback of a “drunk” uke. And every subsequent encounter gets progressively worse.
Rape in first chapter
uke literally said “i’m letting you fuck me” … is that a rape too? am i missing something?
Only read from a friend’s recommendation since i do not typically like omegaverse stories. The story is very much the tried and true: weak omega and strong dominant hero alpha. This was okay, a little choppy on the timeline/flow of the story. The romance aspect was lacking. No SA (Thank god).
The plot though was very interesting and i wished the author dove more into that. Song yeon -woo, the omega, was attacked by a college alpha friend so he ran away to his uncle’s. While waiting for the bus, he stumbles upon an injured Kim Shin (alpha), and invites him to shelter. Flash forward three years and basically some alpha (a red haired dude) that dislikes Shin comes up with some crazy weird plan to knock Shin down a few pegs. That red haired dude somehow manipulates the old college alpha friend who attacked Yeon woo into investigating and finally kidnapping Yeon-woo.
That’s the plot. Almost the entire story is just Yeon-woo having “secret” feelings for Shin but being too insecure to do anything about it and in the background different sets of people trying to get rid of Shin or trying to get revenge of some kind. The only action is in the last 5-7 chapters.
So overall, it’s an okay read.
It is still rape, even if the rapist suffers from mental illness.
Only read season one in hopes the plot would develop better but it didn’t. Almost every other sexual encounter was rape.
