Commenting this here before dumb people ask dumb questions:
1. People complain about rape in yaois too, two things can be true at once.
2. If you want your disgusting master x slave sex you can look at the 1928383 other yaois that feature this in a FANTASY SETTING. I’ll explain it properly for your smooth brain. ITS FANTASY = it doesn’t use ACTUAL people’s racial TRAUMA for profit + for your yaoi slop.
3. There are historical inaccuracies present in this FIRST CHAPTER that are JUST to make the white MC a “one of the good white guys omg ” and that’s problematic asf. If you want to bring up such a sensitive topic, at least speak on it well?
(literally only one chapter out and it’s already inaccurate, so you want me to believe that a Korean woman is educated enough to speak about such a sensitive topic ?)
4. If they want a real slave x slave master story, they don’t have to use black and indigenous people’s suffering, just use your own. Why do I never see a Korean slave X Japanese slave master ? Because when it’s them, they know it’s fuxked up.
5. “It’s only for entertainment” bitch so you want to use slavery for entertainment? The suffering of MY people for your yaoi gay sex for you to masturbate to ?
If you’re slow and an idiot stfu and sit this one out.
Omg, I didn't actually see the first chapter, cuz I thought it would be released on the 30th. Anyways, from what you're saying, this just seems, disrespectful and racist. The "white savior" trope has already taken over many forms of media, and not until recently, black people (and any marginalised groups) have actually started to become more spoken for. And, before you say: "White people stopped discrimination against black people by 1863 when Lincoln announced that all slaves shall freed." Well, you should educate yourself more, or at least watch movies cuz like, stop using your incompetence as an excuse for not having the knowledge. Ik this may sound like a paper on slavery or sth, but the fact that I was anticipating this specific manhwa because its from an author I truly cherish and it turned out to have such themes, I'm sorry, but this is unacceptable. I've seen on a different post on mangago, that Jaxx has apologised for her ignorance, I appreciate that they have apologised, but that doesn't change the fact that they should've done their research.







Jaxx published an apology on twitter. The manhwa is discontinued. The apology showed actual reflection so me personally, as a black women im satisfied but I don’t speak for every black person nor do I speak for indigenous people .
welp..
I'm happy she took accountability for her work; hopefully, her next one isn't tone-deaf and well researched.
honestly i was expecting the usual kpop playbook of denial (featuring the cult following of they didn’t know :(((( ) or the usual ignore it and push forward so im glad she read and reflected and decided to axe the work entirely
