mf its been years since ive read this and i havent even realized that

we're getting pretty close to finding out what happened that caused them to separate in childhood and about the incident that incited chaejun's insomnia so i'd say there probably aren't more than maybe 15 chapters of this story left, the author said they want to wrap this up soon too.

i gotta marinate this for 15 weeks thanks for the info g

You might wanna come back in a few months then friend ╮(￣▽￣)╭

Wdym I have to wait 3 months? Is genuinely back writing. How do they go from the ML raping the MC violently and then giving us 20 straight chapters with them as children to somehow “justify” the MLs behavior. It’s weird asf. I’m not enjoying these back stories and don’t think we need an entire flashback children arc to make a story make sense, it’s poor writing on the authors part.

But we do. We know MCs perspective was almost completely skewed since he was trying to forget some key details that happened in his past. Now going into MLs past we can fill in the gaps of what really happened but also getting details on how he was raised in a traumatic environment as well.

if you dont want to read the flashbacks each update don't come back each week, drop the story until its finished or forever lol

i think you think it's bad writing because you're not understanding what the flashbacks are explaining, and also i don't agree that the backstories are justifying anything, its explanation to me . trying to puzzle out their behavior from season 1 and understand them was really hard and its only starting to make sense now that we have details about the past. their life in highschool has always been core to their relationship and now as we are seeing it (along w the rest of their childhood) is core to their behavior too

how else would u suggest the story be made to make sense if not through flashbacks?

The story of s1&2 told from mc's POV is full of gaps, not the whole truth, that's why we get flashbacks and repeated scenes from ml's perspective, his POV is necessary to fill in where mc forgot things, kinda like piecing together the truth of a crime from multiple testimonies. The flashbacks are not an attempt to justify their behaviours, but to gather all the pieces missing from the other's POV to create a definite timeline. If you're more into the omniscient narrator style with no backtracking, I don't recommend this work

15 downvotes just delete the comment bro

Do you want to go back to the present where everything is still unclear, unstable, full of mysteries left unrevealed, still not understanding the characters and their actions properly, not seeing what truly happened back in their highschool years which was severely misled by Yuwon's unreliable narrating? This is a psychological genre, so it's gonna focus on the characters' internal psychological conflicts and explore their complex mental states. It's not gonna be your average story that narrates on basic actions and physical conflicts. This is a genre where characters and their mental states are the main focal point of the story, even sometimes more than the plot itself. Yes, oftentimes, seeing too much flashbacks in a story can get repetitive and boring but that is bcuz they are straying from the focal elements/originally intended purposes of its genre in the plot. Here, the story is showing many flashback chapters yet it does not feel like we're getting sidetracked. Why? Because the story still focuses on its main element and follow its genre format; the characters and their psychological conflicts. In this case, showing flashbacks where the characters' background are revealed is another thing that builds up to the psychological aspect of this manhwa. It's not dragging on something repeatedly.

If you're feeling like these flashbacks are simply something that comes on cue as an attempt to 'justify' a character's horrible actions, treating this as if it's like any other rapeslop manhwa showing the shitty ml's sob story after abusing the mc, while thinking so very little of the emotional contexts that are finally revealed after countless mysteries where we readers were left in the dark with Yuwon, we are consuming this story the same.

42 downvotes..delete this loser

Why would I delete it? I’m not some yaoi fujo drone like you who eats slop. Go get raped dumb fujo cunt

Such unfortunate language. Only those who cannot express themselves intelligently would resort to such crude substitutions in vocabulary.

exactly why u should delete this..rape threats r crazy ik u stroking ur shit to this LMAO

Their last story was genuinely good. You're just a shit person with shit taste. Hope this helps ( ╹▽╹ )

Yaoi. Just very wholesome Yaoi. It’s sooo worth the read BUT I will say the first 100-200 chapters is random.

Its a shouen ai so a bl but without any sex scenes

shounen*

erm aktually it’s a bl/shounen ai, not a yaoi.

It's not yaoi. It's shounen ai.
Yaoi in the manga world is always pornographic while shounen Ai is simply emotional romance

Side story, chapters 23-25

Right? This is unbelievable. Myself give it 9.5

the story is sooo cute and amazing but i think what’s ruining the rating is the non-con scene from when the ml first moved in

Could agree more! I really hate that part. Even though, they do have past stories, that’s unacceptable. He treats my twink kinda bad especially the side story. The twink could really find a better man! Like me LOL

It’s only like that in the first chapters dw, the rest is translated very well

I looked into the second ch and it was not all that good either but I’ll look into more
