I didn't know it had side stories and now since I've read them I don't understand why the author even made them lol
To show us that relationships don't last unless you really work on them? But this was a silly manhwa and it kinda felt unnecessary to hit us with this. Plus what is the point if they're still together in the end? Like...let's be real, it happens probably in 1/20 (or even more rarely) relationships?
It would've been better if the author made some side stories about their daily life in 5 years oк so, something silly and funny
This is scanlated right? All sfx are cleaned. Why there's no credits and no chapters on mangadex, I wanted to thank the team for this absolute fluff
Gonna buy it in japanese for sure!
Poor guy...Every time I see this type of manhwas I end up thinking this. I've got no problem with ppl liking bdsm, but this manipulation, ugh
Too intense for my pure soul

30/31 chapters now, they translate it fast, so it's close to the korean ones
I mean her friend's never even asked her out. He was never honest and probably arrogant thinking she would never find someone who would be interested in her to the point of learning sign language...And that she would break up with any guy in the end and settle for him or smth
So yeah, I don't feel bad lol
In the description said "Also included is an extra, "6th Year Obsession," featuring the two of them after the events of the main story!" is it about them separately? Or do they actually meet each other again? Cuz I'm not reading yaoi to be sad, life is sad enough lol
I enjoy the ending tho, but I like fairy tales too
There's a novel, and as I understood fron the reviews
>obviously they're gonna be sex friends and then all this slowly falling in love stuff
>the director has an ex-wife and I didn't really understand if they're on good terms, but probably are (or at least they don't hate each other) bc the mc is gonna be jealous and
>the mc will leave him when he realizez his own feelings bc of this jealousy or smth
>he goes to the war zone in Turkey and there after all kinds of situations he realizes he wants to be with him and so on
>so he goes to him to his house in America and since he knows his password for the door (as I understood it was like a promise, that the director won't change the password as long as he has no one else by his side)
and well their reunion after 1 year
>as for his ex, he breaks up with that guy bc he understands it's not love and it would be cruel to continue this relationship
I don't know if he has some important role in the story, probably not, he doesn't chase the mc or smth, at least it wasn't mentioned
This soijds like some sugar daddy toon ive read before lol
Ngl it's like some unknown force keeps me reading this, it's so bad in so many ways I just can't make myself stop, I keep reading this and just cringe and laugh every chapter, the plot is like...well there's none and that's probably what makes me want to continue. And the author never disappoints me, she delivers what she promised - no plot, no development, I feel nothing for the characters bc the situation and their motivations - everything seems so surreal I don't feel any emphaty or anger, so I can peacefully continue to read this.
I sooo want to know how she's gonna make the power of love win, I mean it's so unreal it's just remarkable...
And damn I really want to know how the editor or lezhin even approved this...like it was probably 2019 not early 2010's when it could be popular.
empathy* lol I probably lost some brain sells after reading this to make such mistakes...
Well honestly i don't know if I should agree or disagree with you lol... i guess i can kinda understand you and i agree that this is very addicting and interesting but i have to disagree on the part where you say that there is no plot. I mean it's obvious that there is, that's how we know that kang has some issues and trauma from the past and there is a reason why this is all happening and we're just waiting it to find out what it is. If that's not a plot (containing drama, reasons, tragedy, bad behaviour etc...) idk what is.
Obviously when I write "no plot" I don't mean there's actually no plot, I mean there's a plot in every shitty thing people have ever written in all the years of human existence lol, so yeah. What I mean that this plot is very, very bad written and it's ridiculous.
I mean let's see the last chapter for example and try to understand this guy's reason to blackmail and rape the blue haired guy I don't even know how many times. We see that line kind of triggers him, but it makes no sense tbh
Honestly I can say that about everyone, starting from uke and ending with that uncle with a ridiculous eye-patch lol
I may not have a degree in psychology but this manhwa is definitely not the best representation of human behaviour over all.
In general about the human behaviour yes you're absolutely right and about the plot yea it doesn't make much sense for now but i think that's on purpose. We'll get to the point where the author explains the whole story and we'll understand everything, i'm sure of it.
Actually there's only twenty plots. Some extend that to 23, but that's the utmost limit on how many plots there are in the world.
Yep, obviously there are patterns the stories follow, genre clichés etc , I've never said that everything has its own unique plot :) Ofc the main idea behind two stories can be the same, it's the way the author tells it that matters)
Btw, I'm majoring in psychology and I can say with conviction that their behavior is believable. Trust me, you can even search Behaviorism (Skinner) If want confirmation.
I don't condone the blackmail/rape, but I'm pretty sure the author will pull something like the One-eyed uncle would kill or make Junho's life hell If he knew that Lee Kang was even remotely interested in him. The trauma content is already there for Lee Kang, he probably was raped when he was a child and don't exactly understand the concept of "consent".
To top It all, Junho seems to have a masochist streak on him and is homophobic, even though he's at the very least bisexual.
Yeah, yeah, we saw it all already, there's nothing new. Every time there's a trauma involved it means everyone have to put up with the shit this traumatized person does. But it doesn't work in real life. If it's not a family or someone you really love, no one would get involved with a person who is not stable. And in uke's case no one would try to do this petty revenge or idk what he's planning, every sane person would run away from that. Especially after the moment he heard about the deleted photo.
"he probably was raped when he was a child and don't exactly understand the concept of "consent"." From what I've read he understands very well that he rapes him lol
"To top It all, Junho seems to have a masochist streak on him and is homophobic, even though he's at the very least bisexual. " yeah, it's nothing new too, apparently it's yaoi logic that after someone raped you you just move on like nothing happened and just enjoy your life discovering your sexual preferences. No signs he was struggling with that, nothing.
And the first time he was raped there wasn't a struggle too.
Honestly I can go on and on, but I don't want to.
Yep, that's about It. I do not like how they portray rape in comics (I particularly abhor yaoi logic), because author's tend to romanticize rape, one way or another.
With the exception of your first sentence, I disagree with your first paragraph. If you know enough about psychology/human behaviour, you will understand that Very few people are "stable" or "sane", as you put it, hahaha.
You are under no obligation to "put up" with the behavior of anyone, traumatized or not. Morally speaking, you shouldn't make the problem worse, obviously, but If you force yourself to stay with an unstable person, you may end worsening his case. This is why borderline personality disorder can get really tricky to deal with.
"If you know enough about psychology/human behaviour, you will understand that Very few people are "stable" or "sane", as you put it, hahaha."
- Well I'm not talking about some minor stuff, ofc we all are a bit damaged in our own way, I'm talking about the cases when people harm others, like the abuse here. That's why I'm saying normal people without any major psychological issues would not involve yourself with people like the mc here.
And I agree with everything else you said, just wanted to clear up that part above :)
what the hell does ngl mean? It looks like niggle. which seems ridiculous. niggle this niggle that.
ahaha never thought that
ngl=not gonna lie
Look, there's 20 plots. This has been know for oh... 2500 years. it's not "patterns"
You're not letting it go, are you? Bc I obviously know what you mean (and I even googled it in case I didn't) and it doesn't change anything I've said, you're just picking on my line "no plot", when it's obvious a lot of people say it meaning the story is poor written.
So please, let me be :)
whatever you said, I like conscientious people who will look something up to make sure they absolutely know what they're talking about. I read this topic mainly because I liked what you said about how for some reason you keep coming back.
Oh, thank you, then I've probably misinterpreted your words.
ty, man
I hate how they typeset at manta...they just type all the sfx with the same font and in line, who does that? I still pay for it but I wish there'd be some button where I can complain cuz it's just hideous...
