(semi spoilers) this had 5 plots in one and I enjoyed every bit. yes it starts with rape so remember always look at the tags or comments beforehand. I loved how twisted this was, it was less of a love story and more of an action and masochistic/sadist story. I thought the twist with the uke having a tragic background and then the man who caused it being released was fun. the author made an exciting story that kept me drawn in. the rape wasn’t necessary but you can’t erase it so it’s best to move on :)
i honestly don’t see how this was grooming. yes the uke is in high school but he is still around 18. i just don’t think y’all should throw that word around unless you think this was manipulation/abuse. also remember just because there’s an age gap doesn’t make it grooming anyone can be a groomer. personally i think it was cute and the seme was very respectful, he refused to have sex and understood that their relationship would be frowned upon. he wasn’t forceful and when he confessed he went to another room so the uke could think. age gaps are always a touchy subject but i think as long as the younger party isn’t under 17 and the older party is respectful and caring there is nothing wrong. ofc more factors go into my views but that’s a big one. it’s all about consent and the uke never said no or pushed the seme away. so i have no complaints.
i enjoy how the author didn’t make Hye-sung an obedient omega. yes Hye-sung has been annoying and has made me mad especially when byul was born but come on he never expected that life at all.
i don’t think enough people realize that Hye-sung was never going to be a “perfect parent” experiencing extensive trauma doesn’t disappear it stays with you forever. being depressed doesn’t just go away because you have a family and child. instead, you smile when you can and try keeping it together. people need to understand that Hye-sung was raised in an unhealthy environment and then when he had dreams and goals they were completely taken from him by dojin. neither one of them is perfect but many people favorite dojin and preach how great of a parent he is but he's just had a healthier life and was able to adjust. dojin has been controlling and manipulative when he feels jealous or that Hye-sung isn’t happy. and might i add dojin violated Hye-sung and said you’re an omega everything you believe is a lie and you’re dumb for thinking different. i’m sorry but if a stranger entered my life and flipped it upside down i would despise them also.
Hye-sung being an alpha was his only escape. then he gets knocked up and was manipulated into having (ever so loving byul) and people still expected him to just wake up and be a god of parenting?! some of these comments make me so sad because having trauma and mental illnesses is not something you can easily push aside, it’s not easily dealt with. when Hye-sung feels better yes talking about it can help but he will never be 100%. his life was flipped upside down and he’s not perfect but he is also young and inexperienced. he’s growing and trying.
his dad just flipped his world upside down again and he’s broken and some of y’all expected him to just push all those emotions aside?! him smiling at byul and not running away are major stepping stones. he’s still at home he’s just hurt. byul is a baby he’s going to cry when he sees his moms upset and ofc he wants his mom but byul also has a huge group of people that care for him. let Hye-sung feel and then we can see what happens after. and also to top it off i’m pretty sure that’s his mom. y’all can’t say if this was you you would be okay?! maybe i’m different because if i was Hye-sung i would’ve lost my sanity by now.
yes! no one seems to ever talk about how bad dojin’s possessiveness can get and how HE was the one who manipulated hyesung into keeping byul, and isn’t as great as a character as he’s made up to be. they come from such different backgrounds so it’s no wonder dojin from a stable rich alpha family can’t understand why hyesung reacts the way he does!
ofc!! it just irritates me when everyone kinda just went over hye-sung getting pregnant ... like it wasn’t some sweet and nice one night stand or anything with dojin. and i was frustrated with hye-sung for leaving byul at first, but then i understand the more i thought about his relationship with dojin and their first impressions and interactions with each other
I laughed so much. did he split the sea like a god... the innocent pose.. his dying and his glasses breaking from the combo attack... the snow booty. 5 stars because this was so funny
