gloves stay on during sex is all I got from this
jokes aside, id dog on heejae for his violent approach to sex, but I guess it somehow balances out because of garams masochistic tendencies.i also wonder if their music styles influence the way they have sex. It was mentioned before that heejaes playing is electrifying, seductive, and intense, whereas garams is more careful and gentle. but just as garam was able to see the softness and the underlying sadness in heejae’s playing, does he see that same vulnerability during sex and just as heejae sees himself reflected in garams sound, does he also recognize that beneath garams soft, careful touches there’s still a need for rawness and intensity. im just rambling now but I’ve been thinking about it
not influence but maybe mirror
Oh I love this idea of the mirror so much! Especially when you consider how similar and different their approaches are to their sound! They both hold the power to be soft and to be sharp and know how and when to wield it. It also kinda suggests inherently this idea of the inner, like Garam and Heejae may not outwardly seems like mirrors of each other to others/the world bc of how different they are in their sound and repertoire and their positions in society (the intense volatile Romantics that Heejae loves and is so good at along with him being Garam’s mentor/professor vs the quicksilver, fractured, ephemeral Impressionists that are Garams’s natural inclination and him being a student/protégée), but if we continue the mirror metaphor when they look into it they see each other inside them, in a view only they can have/understand. While outwardly not bearing a resemblance, internally knowing that they hold significant pieces/influence of each other. These pieces of each other come up in important moments both professionally and personally! Their enmeshment is depicted so intricately it’s beautiful
Anyway sorry to rant (hope this makes sense?), just really loved your thought!!!
im crine we went straight to 133, maybe it’s for the better
Sameee I've been just refreshing since 2h ago
this is off topic, but I like how the faceless side characters are drawn because they actually look like real people. that white woman in this chapter talking to krueger about garam looks exactly like my hl gp teacher who made my life hell. ms harris I will never forget you
when he’s geriatric and crazy but can still lay down pipe
son
It’s the fact he’s not even that old
Lol! How old is he? I’ve forgotten.
In the beginning he was probably in his mid-late 40s I think. Right now he’s in his late 40s. He’s just kind of skinny so his face looks more gaunt and older.
Like 42-44
think he’s around mid 40s?
Ty!
Ty!
Ty!
oh my days why did garam have to apologise when his anger was completely justified? and heejae needs to get a rock thrown at him cause his secret plans are doing nothing but setting garam up for failure… we’re moving 2 steps forward, 10 steps back
also, garam really giving away his bussy too easily. like…can I get a turn next time
im glad garam is finally standing up for himself. I get that the professor’s plans usually lead to good results, but he’s so controlling over garams career that it’s making his musical journey feel stagnant. When everything is handed to you, you never really learn how to work for it, and I think that’s holding garams sound back.
If garam were real, the one piece id want to hear him play is franz liszts consolation no.3
or maybe romance sans paroles no.3
if i had sex with garam, id record that shit (with consent), compress the file into a microscopic brain chip surgically install it into my skull, and make that shit hotkeyed to my consciousness. every night before bed id play it back and go to sleep all bricked up
You have such a way with words
I think Heejae would like this as well
i love literature
Y record it? Kidnap him n fk him daily every sec
Shakespeare not dead
shedding tears from my dih and my eye
I wanna fuck the shit outta garam too omggg
STAND IN LINE BOZO!!!
can’t hear you when youre all the way back there in the line
Oh there's a line? Nah imma kidnap garam i cant wait that long
I feel like people oversimplify this whole manager situation. a lot of people seem to interpret it as heejae emotionally cheating on garam whenever his manager appears during their intimate moments. but this manhwa has always been about emotional growth and self reflection. heejae has always struggled with vulnerability, only confronting his emotions after letting garam into his heart. his late manager isn’t there because heejae loves him romantically, he represents heejae’s biggest regret. he never got the chance to apologise or make things right before his manager died, so hes still carrying unresolved guilt and grief. now with garam, hes terrified of repeating those same mistakes and being abandoned all over again. those memories aren’t a sign that he’s choosing his manager over garam they’re a manifestation of his guilt, regret, and fear of losing someone he finally allowed himself to love.
thank you for saying this, this is exactly what i have been thinking. this story has a lot of complex emotions and situations involved that i think are sometimes misinterpreted.
The way you explained,it is very beautiful
Yeah ppl hating on manager and heejae but they dont understand the deeper meaning
