Just came here to say that this is my 8th time rereading this....still my favorite of all time
I love this. I relate so much with Bom and I feel her life could be mine if was born with privilege.
There's something so sinister about poverty and the fear of it. When I was younger I didn't really want to achieve anything, I felt drawn to no one and desired nothing, my mother's opinions about me ruled my reality and I had so much self hatred that I constantly looked for love anywhere, despite not wanting it at the same time. I'm a bit older now, an adult, life is filled with so much uncertainty and chaos that I've grown apathetic. In every stage of life I get to I always dream of leaving despite just being at the entrance. Apathy and numbness, despite the ongoing chaos in my life, that's what I usually feel. And just like bom the one of the few times I felt alive was when I was with my childhood crush (which is very silly) but it made me aware of the fact that I am capable of this feelings but it leaves an ache in my heart that I haven't felt that way in ages.
I have goals now, I'm trying to pursue everything and anything to get accolades from my peers, to get admiration from everyone and to be able to simply run away whenever I want. However, that numbness and apathy is still there.
I'm about to embark on another stage of life and I'm so frightened, I sincerely hope everything goes well. I can't wait for more chapters
I can relate to how you feel, wishing you the best on your next stage. <3
This is a beautiful piece of art. From the beginning, the execution has been nothing less of a beautiful mastery we don't see anymore in media. The angst, forbidden romance, yearning and tension in this story..it's so beautiful. With no debate I can call this one of the top 10 best Manhwas out there.
I can't wait for this to finish so I can reread this masterpiece again
You were capable of being so much more
