If you try and think about it really really hard, turn your head sideways and use your imagination to let the bottom's hair grow and tune some small details this is could BASICALLY be satosugu fanfiction....
I know sunwon always was a twink but how'd he get ultra mega twinkified? The difference from the early chapters to the new ones is so stark it doesn't even feel like the same person, looks and personality wise. Ik they're revealing more of his trauma so obviously it's not as goofy anymore but where did our cunning and weirdly considerate scam god go
Bruh no wonder everyone on social media calls this rapeslop with the speedrun the manhwa does their relationship seems as deep as a puddle, if I were the author I'd be SO pissed ☠
Exactly! Their relationship development at this point is SO different in the novel!!!
Is it really stray from the novel? If yes, imma start reading it
Yessss omg, taek joo clearly states that he doesn’t want to leave because he HATES Zhenya but because of another reason (sry dementia kicking in frrr).
The manhwa does adapt aspects of it but it's kind of more like a summary? If that makes sense? Like when you read the summary of a book you don't really understand the personal parts of a character, only what's happening.
A lot of the nuances that make or break this particular kind of story are in the massive amount of details the manhwa simply doesn't adapt. If you liked how fleshed out season 1 was in comparison to this mess, you're gonna LOVE the novel. I mean it when I say I was pleasantly surprised with how well-written the novel is, and I say that as a book geek.
So yeah, I'd heavily recommend picking it up if you're interested in the characters and story, but trigger warning for graphic violence and assault if you're sensitive to that! That is also one of the aspects the manhwa glosses over in the grand scheme.
Thankyou so much for the insight and heads up. Im totally find with violence & assault. So imma start read it then
Eheheh thats so sweet of you to trying explaining while dementia kick in. I appreciate that. Tq
I hope they film a nasty "ghost catching" tape, allat kinky shit included #mythruth
Excellent use of freedom of speech.
Ok now that the first season has ended I gotta say I HATE how the supporting cast keeps making these "when will you finally accept him comments" and find the whole situation funny and endearing, that trope of give your adorkable harasser a chance is so harmful and dangerous and the fact that the author is still propagating bs like that in 2026 really rubs me the wrong way.
Im aware this trope has done most harm to women with male admirers, but the victim and perpetrator can be of any gender and this happening between men in this story doesn't diminish the fact that Juhyeok cannot defend himself from the social pressure that's being put on him by his environment to end up with a guy that literally assaults him. Like wtf
Had to get this off my chest
That old man NEEDS to be let off his viagra his behavior is so insanely uncomfortable and predatory
On my SOUL that's a fossil and a newborn he needs to leave that kid ALONEE
Literally like can you please go fall in love with your assistant I’m tired
I fucking love this manhwa and the community here it's like we're all connected by the bullshit
Never seen a top be dunked this much by the whole community EVER and the guy is like a douchebag at worst lmao (THE HATE IS STILL VALID THO) it's so amazing let's normalize this
Ain't no fucking way I start this masterpiece and have to end on this cliffhanger. ANY OTHER CHAPTER WOULDVE BEEN FINE HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO SLEEP NOW
