She really did choose the wrong twin, didn't she? lol
It's also scary how the ML reads like an actual real life man... The paternalistic and male chauvinistic way of thinking, the useless pride, how he failed to understand her hurt until it was almost too late, because for him she was just being childish, how he treated her like a possession and didn't care about her thoughts or opinions, the way he ruined her life knowingly when he didn't even like her just her looks... Like it hits a little bit too close to home, ngl
This one is so good that it's the first regret/chasing story I've read this year that I'm not even the tiniest bit mad at the ending. The ML's backstory and the narrative progression were so well done to the point I actually rooted for them to back together. And this happens like almost never, so yeah it's peak.
Maybe it's because I'm a very petty person but it's extremely hard for me to empathize with Jooan. If I was in Seojoon's shoes I'd never forgive him, even after all that chasing and explaining.
Like I get it, the whole "idealized first love" vs "the one who's been with you all along" parallel is supposed to be the whole point of their romance, but to me just thinking about the insecurities Jooan gave Seojoon during those FIFTEEN years is enough to not make their relationship worth it imo.
But that's on me. I'm always reading these stories hoping for the uke to turn over a new leaf and heal with someone new, knowing full well that's not gonna happen and getting disappointed lol.
I feel the same.
Seojoon should’ve waited years before giving Jooan a chance.
Jooan was so selfish.
Imagine, Jooan slept with so many men who had striking resemblance to Hajin (his crush) for 15 years, and Seojoon stood there in complete defeat.
The fact that Jooan only realized his feelings for Seojoon after being rejected by Haiin is so bad.
What if Hajin accepted him? Then Seojoon never stood a chance.
Jooan is nothing but a selfish manwhore in my eyes
Exactly!! Them getting together was not satisfying at all to me for all those reasons you just said. I also got disappointed because I was thinking about how much better the story would be if Seojoon was the seme lol It's not fun seeing an uke suffering like that, that's a seme's job! And brats like Jooan should always be the ukes. When it comes to these things, I'm a tradjoshi through and through.
Yk when you see a ship and is absolutely sure they will last? This one is the opposite of that to me. I can't see them having a healthy romantic relationship in the long run. What I can see is just things getting worse as time goes by, because of their abysmal differences in all aspects and her inferiority complex. IMO it'd be so much better for her to be with Lucas, (ik it's impossible ). Maybe it's just my second ML syndrome talking but I feel like his love was more genuine in a way, like he loved her personality as much as he loved her appearance, and Vincent seems to me that he loves her DESPITE her appearance... Also I can totally see Lucas falling in love with her in different circumstances, but I cannot see the same with the ML... Idk I just feel he's not the best choice for her. She suffered so much in her life and he contributed to some of that pain, albeit unknowingly, in a way I don't find romantic at all. She needs someone who will find her beautiful first like Lucas did.
I want to add that I don't hate Vincent at all, for a ML he's nice actually. It's just when comparing him with Lucas that specific difference between their love for Paula started to bother me a lot. How am I supposed to still act like the ML is the most deserving of FL when the 2nd ML, which only appeared to be used as a plot device btw, was lowkey more sincere than him?











I'm sorry but it's buttcheeks
It had so much potential but the progression of the story telling is a mess and a lot of things make no sense. Also I kinda feel bad about the brother, he's trash but he didn't deserve all that yk, it was excessive and not satisfying imo.
