It's pretty cute but they butchered the stalker subplot. I'd love to see a side story with the green haired guy and the grey haired doctor friend. I bet it would be pretty intense. Toxic but intense
Yeah, it was very anticlimatic; he only pops up occasionally, and then when he makes his move, he's easily taken down. And I really hate the grey-haired friend since he fueled the seme's toxic behavior with the whole "you're too easy on him" talk. Given that neither he nor the seme are depicted as being in the wrong but the uke's friend is, I'm not sure they'll get a side story with each other.
The normal and healthy relationship is obviously with Raon but i can't seem to shake the feeling that he's sus or that somehow his love is "not that deep" or that I'm waiting for a different side of him to pop up - I can't explain it. On the other hand, Gaon's obsession/ love that he doesn't know he feels - is more intense and sincere but it's abusive and unhealthy.They probably are going to pair imae up with him though, let's be honest..The only way i can accept the Gaon endgame is if it comes out later that he wasn't the one responsible for Imae's mother's death ( maybe it was a villager that happened to kill her right before the invasion or something like that) because Imae never really cared for anyone else tbh and his fellow villagers would have sold him for grain if they could..
The first story is brutal and doesn't have a happy ending, which maybe now that i think about it is a good thing imo. It reminds us that these kinds of naratives with rape and forced sex can never become romantic in real life..and honestly, i should check descriptions and tags better from now bc boy! was reading this one of the bad decisions in my life











Dropped at ch57. Kinda uninspired, shallow. Can't get over the fact that they were both living debaucherous lives with no intention of settling down but as soon as the pregnancy occurred they realised they wanted to be parents, get married and live monogamically. Get that patriarchical way of thinking out of here.. story sounds like my grandma saying "when he finds the right one and becomes a dad he'll change" which is bullshit. Also, 1: the omega is a tsundere pro max, so much so that sometimes it took me out of the story. It was so infuriating... And 2: the alpha was horny ALL. THE. FUCKING. TIME. I was starting to wonder if he really liked the mc or if it was purely physical.
