So I kind of loved this story until I reread it and discovered he was actually raped every Saturday..
In my mind when I read this for the first time I thought yeah, he has a choice to say No and he was only crying because of what had happened to him before BUT after rereading this I saw it for what it was and I just couldn't accept the new picture I got, that he actually was mentally unstable to say the word "no".
You can agree or disagree but after reading it twice his crying is a sign of him needing help, real help and his boss KNEW IT FROM THE BEGINNING OTHERWISE HE WOULD NEVER DARE TO ASK HIM TO SLEEP WITH HIM!
Remember when he said at the beginning he knew what a shitty position the uke was in and after his boss interviewed him he could see how easy it would be to manipulate the uke to do the fuck he wanted. I was in love with that bossy attitude and the sexy smirk, now I'm only disgusted after hearing him admit it all
I understand your point of view. I started reading this last week and personally, I always thought it was rape, coersion is rape in any form you know. However, what makes this different from other rape yaois like Jinx or any others is that here the rape is addressed as it is. Its not necessarily meant to be sexy and to some extent the seme does comfort the uke when things get hard although he is still forceful. Im not saying that makes it any better, rape is rape I am not trying to defend him. It is still disgusting, but what makes me tolerate it is how self aware the top is (bare minimum i know). But its refreshing. He actually takes accountability instead of moving forward with no remorse and just confessing his feelings like alot of these other bls where suddenly the top is in love and everything is fixed.There is a visible development on their relationship that is triggered by both ends enjoying each other’s companies instead of linking the only through the project and sex while they hate each other all along. Seo Dan even realises he was scared for nothing when they are done with their first time doing anal. AGAIN , that doesn’t make it better, it could’ve turned out differently and in many situations in real life it does. Point is: this is tolerable because the “rape” is not a continuous torture to the reader (imo) because you can see a development and shift in character from both the uke and top. Its not filled with unnecessary rape scenes as “fan service”, each sex scene contains a developmental change in character, either through actions or narrations that express Seo Dan’s shift in attitude. Anyways, sorry for the yap. Rape is rape, Juwon is still disgusting, but he is self aware which does not make it better, but makes it tolerable in my eyes.

I'm trying to find the name for this manga (I don't mean the translation in English) so I can search for the raws but the name ( プラセボ) isn't helping much... Anyone with knowledge of the original language who can help me out here?
It's purasebo/placebo
Pretty sure it’s just called 플라시보 and if you want a link to the raws here it is https://newtoki341.com/webtoon/29009409/%ED%94%8C%EB%9D%BC%EC%8B%9C%EB%B3%B4?stx=%ED%94%8C%EB%9D%BC%EC%8B%9C%EB%B3%B4
Thank you!
Is it wrong to think that this story won't have a happy ending...?
Nah i think that too
I beg whoever is taking charge of this story's translation to translate a little bit faster. The original author takes FOREVER to give out one chapter AND THEN I have to wait for it to be translated here. I would have paid whoever is doing the translation BUT the original translation on Lez is soooo far away I can't possibly wait this long to KNOW!
The translator is taking time out to translate this story for free. I know it's hard to wait for updates when we enjoy the story so much but we've got no right to pressure them into working even harder. It's not like we're paying them to do it for us.
This is worse than Killing Stalking and I didn't think I would say this, like EVER, I swear! They at least had a connection, Bum and Sangwo AND A STORY WHERE THE KILLER BECAME A KILLER BECAUSE OF HIS IDIOT DUMP FATHER. But this story here? I don't see ANYTHING other than a killer enjoying killing WHILE having sex!!!! And a smartass trying to save his ass in a smart way but is not even aware that the man he "loves" is only using him, so I can't even understand how he can be smart in one way and be a complete idiot in another...I don't even know what I think of this story, it's so fucked up that I see Killing Stalking as child's play right now....
it's a sign that it's a bad story.
Please fix your wording.
It isn't a sign of a "Bad Story" maybe a "Bad Ending" yes. But, overall its hella thrilling to read.
(For Commentor: Lolo)
We all rad the summary and shouldn't be shock how this surpass "Killing stalking" cause after all they are different stories.
Dude what u hoping for 13 chapters. Wer still even far from the mid chaps. Chill ~ judge it when it's already complete
you must be a 12 year old kid. stop reading this
i think it’s too early to assume... maybe the author character also had a bad childhood that killing people before/after sex gives them pleasure... same w the pretend-blind guy... bc of his past, he became fixated w giving when theyre aware of their partner’s infidelity ;-; behind all this killing and manipulation shit, i feel like this is as sad as killing stalking
my bad i was going to say "bad writing'' since the actions of the characters don't make any sense. Also, I find the villain superficial. To each their own ig.
i am 16 and it won't take a genius (i assume that's what you see yourself as) to figure it out, kudos to you for understanding this webtoon.
As you know the freaking manhwa is still "ongoing" and stop comparing KS to this Manhwa because not all the pyschology yaoi are like KS
I think he is referring it to the main commenter : LOLO >.<
oh shit, that was too ''fast and furious'' of me. if this is true sorry @yoshi.
yeah im talking about op's comment, also id like to ask how can you say that this is already a bad story if we don't know a lot of the character's motivation? also just because there is a bad guy in a story who kills for 'fun' doesn't make the story bad.
A character can be interesting even
A character can be interesting even without the need for a backstory or motivation.I just don't find this character interesting enough.
well I guess we will never agree because a motivation and a backstory helps a lot in making a character interesting. even without that though, this story already intrigues me so
What is this? IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO KILL THE SNAKE BOSS BUT IT ONLY TOOK LIKE WHAT? A CHAPTER TO FINISH A WHOLE DRAMA? WHERE THE FUCK IS THE DRAMA? THE ACTION AND THEN PAIN AND ALL THAT SHIT THE SNAKE BOSS IS? HE SHOULD HAVE DONE MORREEEEEE! MUCH MORE THAN GO TO THAT STUPID PARTY WITHOUT CARING FOR HIS LIFE. HE EVEN TRIED TO TAKE HIS LIFE!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I'M SOOOO ANGRY RIGHT NOW AT THIS SHITTY ENDING I JUST WANNA SHOUT WHY WHY JUST WHY THE FUXK???
No at all strange that this is mind blowingly good story, it's a story written from the same person who wrote Moritat!!!!! Gooood I love this
Yeah, I am all team Ray. I love Sooha so don't get me wrong but when Ray cried I thought my heart would never stop crying. I like that sooha has someone who cares about him but isn't their boyfriend supposed to love both? Why is he only taking care of Sooha while the only thing he has for Ray is "tell your grandpa where it is". Like, can't he understand that both needs love? Not just one? And just because Ray is 16 does not mean that he can't have sex. Some people start by 15 soooo. And it's the same body for god's sake! That's not a reason to hurt Ray and then be uncomfortable every time Ray comes out. He can at least pretend to not worry to death about Ray bringing trouble. I just hope they sort it out and that they becomes happy :))))
With DID i think it’s best to see them as two different people at least from what I know. I see it as cheating but idk.
um- ray is a minor a literal 16 year old it doesn’t matter if he has the same body as sooha, his brain is not even developed yet ... isn’t mr lee like 20+ not u tryna condone underage sex i-
In the end, he became his father..
