Fuck off. That was the first thought I had when I read this chapter.
I will refer to the characters as "uke" (the bottom) and "seme" (the top) as you would do with manga. I am doing this because a) I cant remember names and b) calling them "top" and "bottom" feels wrong for this manhwa
His apology is well thought out, and I agree with the comments that say it took courage, and that admiting accountability is a hard thing to do. However, the way he's saying "give me one last chance" (to me) is like him saying, "I admitted my mistakes, now forgive me." He said that the uke doesn't have to forgive him, that he can say no, but because of what he's done in the past, the uke will feel obligated to forgive or at least act like he does.
Since the uke has even been threatened with suicide of someone he fell in love with, he will most likely assume "if I deny this apology, will he actually commit suicide?" The past they have together also adds onto his guilty conscience.
I also belive that in the period they were separated, the uke did not fully move on from his feelings towards the seme. I do not clearly remember the earlier chapters, but based off of phycology, when guilty, you are more likely to think about and have a harder time forgetting than normal. The uke most likely experienced this, and therefore has not been able to move on from the seme.
There are many ways the author could take ch.65, such as the uke straight up rejecting the seme (though I doubt it), hesitation, and an actual chasing arc (which i believe would be the most satisfying to majority of readers), or the author could just make the uke accept the apology as they may want the story to end, or would rather have the happiness. The author may surprise us all, we really have no way of knowing until the next chapter comes out.
Needless to say, I'm excited to see what route this manhwa takes. Thank you for reading the whole thing if you got this far, and as always, love you all xxx
Upon re reading the chapter, and taking more notice to what he said, the content of the apology was good, well thought out, and something that the uke wanted to hear. Saying that, I don't know whether to trust if this apology is really from the heart, or some twisted way of manipulating the uke again, as hes obviously good at that. I still stand by what I said though, that his apology seems less guilty ridden and more with the intent of getting the uke back, as if that's his main priority rather than actually putting everything out there.
Man at this point I don't even care if it's a real apology or not, he needs to fuck off never to be seen again because everything he did was objectively unforgivable
I dont read much angst, I mean I will if its in a bigger plot, but I dont typically read specifically for sad angsty stories. Yesterday, my friend recommended me "Die in your arms". The title was something like that- it might have been "my" instead of "your" but I know it was something along those lines. I don't care much for triggers, as I normally just ignore them and continue reading anyways.
I'm wondering if I should read it? Like, is the plot good enough to warrant me leaving my usual fluff for angst? If you've read this, please let me know.
As always, love you all (づ￣ ³￣)づ

HELLO ALL I dropped this a bit after S1 because the 180 was WAYYY too much... should I continue? I want to know if their relationship starts to progress again and if its started to get cute. PLEASE tell me all my broskis
OKAY LOVE YOU ALLLLLL (づ￣ ³￣)づ
It’s circling back around and their adding a second ML to make it messy, so I imagine the plots just gunna circle two or three more times between “lovey dovey”, “how could you betray me”, “me angry an hurt you” and “sowwy I just a toxic guy or whatever but I look good so you’ll forgive me
It had potential to explore self denial, internal homophobia and the like but it seems like it’s gunna take the popular non con black flag romance and take the Caveman approach to romance
I guess im dropping this thank you for telling me though (づ￣ ³￣)づ
AGH PMO!! Thx tho for the reply (づ￣ ³￣)づ
No worries, I’m giving it a few more chaps then will probs drop it too lol
Do you have the link for the novel I tried reading it but the translation seems off ( ⸍ɞ · ɞ⸌
I thought this was gonna a be a hole]some read, you know, some nice friends to lovers, a bit of a slow burn when it comes to recognising their feelings (nothing else is slow- it's fast and hard), so wdym Su-ah is getting possessive and slightly toxic Okay, good for you ig.. but the poor bottom is the one dealing with that monster, not you I wish you luck, bottom I forgot the name of.

This is the exact same as the animation (as others have said) it's getting to the point I'm just skimming through it since I already know everything. The only thing I'm waiting for is ep 12 to be turned into a chapter, since apparently it's deeper (ikyk). Oh well, nothing I can do about it.
LOVE YOU ALL (づ￣ ³￣)づ
I HATE THEM GRAHH FUCK OFF LEAVE HIM ALONE (╬￣皿￣)凸 (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
