this manga genuinely fills me with dread, i love it so much and it makes me feel so many things and i can connect with yaguchi so much, but i think its because i see myself in him that i feel this way. the writing is amazing and conveys emotion so clearly. i love this manga so much that i hate it LOL
ARE WE JUS GONAN IGNORE THE MAJOR RED FLAGS HERE ?!/?!?!?!? this mf is guilt tripping him, isolated him from others so that he would only go to him made him believe he was the only person that really cared for him, EVEN HIS MOM WAS LIKE hey he didnt pressure u into this right ? jin come get ur mans.






this is just me being nitpicky because i see it in so many series but why does the victim HAVE to work for forgiveness from their abuser? jintae was and IS being abused by his mother and while the series does somewhat acknowledge that, it ends it with him having to win over his mother when she shouldn’t have access to him at all. maybe this is me expecting too much of a BL but damn it would’ve been more compelling if he cut that woman off
It's an asian culture family thing, most countries in asia value family more than anything and if any conflicts occur between family, most of the time the will be 'you HAVE to forgive them, you're family, you need to be there for each other'. -just my opinion as a Filipino
Yeah. I wish more media shows abused children leaving their toxic households
Real
true
yeah, i completely get this as someone who comes from a mexican household. family is often put on a pedestal, and there’s an expectation that you’re supposed to forgive, forget, and tolerate things simply because they’re family. i call complete bullshit on those traditionalist views. being related to someone doesn’t automatically excuse their actions or that you owe them forgiveness.
Exactly sigh I am going through it rn I feel literal guilt for wanting to be distant from my family even though they argue all the damn time??
