I LOVE YOU BRO YOU FUNNY AS FUCK

no way you're asking someone to explain 116 chapters worth of lore

Confirming your questions:
-Dohyeok never raped Suha, mostly pressure and dubcon to consent. He hit Suha twice or thrice after they broke up, but I don’t think repeatedly. Dohyeok and Suha were together when they were young and knew each other, Dohyeok kinda had Suha under control and Suha was into him but also helped Dohyeok out because Suha felt the need to pay back for how he was helped out by the family (I think). The history between Dohyeok and Suha is basically assault, dubcon, threat/manipulation, don’t rely on my words though. Hopefully someone else can confirm.

-Suha has raped Jiwoon ch 49 so it’s double standards how people ignore that and blame it all on Dohyeok for rape when her never did. People blame everything on Dohyeok and how Dohyeok deserved the rape he got, taste of his medicine they also said. Which makes no sense and just crazy cause Suha never went through gangrape and suffered physical signs of trauma (vomiting) as well as PTSD in general, Dohyeok vomited during sex with Siwoo and told him to keep going and Siwoo flipped him over to see his face, Dohyeok’s face was not of pleasure but he looked very scared and distraught.

-Jiwoon being worse than Dohyeok is debatable. Idk. But he is a red flag and has repeatedly assaulted Suha

-Siwoo (brown head, ML in the side stories and with Dohyeok) avenged Suha by raping and drugging Dohyeok, apparently taste of his own medicine Siwoo said, and Dohyeok repeatedly told him no and to get out, Siwoo hits Dohyeok, and Dohyeok finds out he’s into being hit and can’t admit that he does like that. He’ quickly gets attached to Siwoo. Dohyeok around chapter 134-135 was gang raped by his “friends”. He was drugged too. He exhibited signs of PTSD and had nightmares, he looked scared and vomited when remembering it. Siwoo is currently on the way to find out but isn’t too sure of himself and thinks Dohyeok enjoyed his “sex” with other guys. A misunderstanding.

I can’t spoil much cause I don’t remember jack shit , I rely on people to find it. Feel free to ask questions, maybe I’ll remember it that way

EDIT: I can’t edit my comment so I’m making another reply here. About Suha raping Jiwoon in ch. 49, it’s rape cause he did it to a sleeping Jiwoon by rubbing himself on Jiwoon’s dick when he realized Jiwoon was apparently turned on while sleeping (probably had a erotic dream). And Suha inserted Jiwoon’s dick inside his ass, while Jiwoon has no idea and still sleeping, and Suha proceeds to continue.

I just confirmed their questions, but I really can’t explain 116 chapters it’s insane if anyone can.

yeah like there was a lot going on, most of it was subtle so i could never have this much patience to explain everything, but you did a great job!

in addition to this, jiwoon also raped suha in chapter 7 during their first time. jiwoon penetrated him without warning, and suha was clearly scared and shaking his head, but jiwoon didn't let him any anything by kissing him. he also tells jiwoon to take it out but of course he didn't, now this can be seens as dubcon or whatever but if we're holding everyone accountable then our beloved ML from the main story shouldn't be left out lol

EDIT: didn't let him say anything**

Jesus. Everyone here is toxic as hell, I can’t keep track. I did remember Jiwoon being toxic as hell and insecure and assaulting Suha but wasn’t sure if it was rape or assault. And I’m not justifying Dohyeok at all, he deserved the beating for all he did, but then so does Jiwoon Suha Siwoo and his “friends”. So why does it feel like everyone’s out to get Dohyeok?

exactly i am not defending dohyeok, I just want everyone else to get just as much hatred because they're all rapists lol

Bro what is this story . I remember seeing some stuff about it being like a cute office romance a couple years ago wtf happened

BRO you don't understand I'm so curious like I read the beginning chapters a few years back and dropped it, but now I'm here again and apparently so much shits gone down and the cover's changed too. Then you look in the comments and it's a BLOODBATH lololol. Reminds me of the days of Love or Hate

JUST ONE MORE THING (and really, thank you so much for the answers ): Is Siwoo in love with Suha? Or at least was he in love in any way? Cause after binging the side story, it feels like their relationship goes beyond the normal "best friends," or at least in Siwoo's case.

(sorry ik you didn't ask me but i am answering) no siwoo only thinks of suha as a friend, more like a younger brother because he has known him for so many years so he is basically family to him. since his dad was homophobic and he was kicked out right after highschool, suha has been the only consistent person in his life, and he has seen suha struggle so much at the beginning which is why he is special to siwoo.

The main couple of the first part were healthy at first, and wholesome, but Jiwoon the ML became really toxic and insecure, telling Suha to stay inside out of fear, and Suha is also quite toxic himself. It was a 180 change my jaw dropped

Don’t remind me, Love or Hate literally had me shedding tears out of anger

“No, Siwoo only thinks of Suha as a friend, more like a younger brother because Siwoo has known Suha for so many years so Suha is basically family to him, since his dad was homophobic and he was kicked out right after highschool, Suha has been the only consistent person in his life, and he has seen Suha struggle so much at the beginning which is why he is special to Siwoo.”

Adding onto what @Bear replied to you, it’s true. Siwoo has never really been into Suha, he saw Suha as no more than a friend and no less than family. You could say they’re siblings almost. Siwoo saw what Suha was going through even though Suha did try to keep quiet about it, the signs were there and Siwoo suspected something was going on between Suha and Jiwoon and he felt like something was off about Jiwoon. I think I remember Siwoo also telling Suha to leave Jiwoon, unsure though. I just know Siwoo never liked Jiwoon.
