Gyeom is almost purposefully confusing Ja Wook by being kind (personally preparing food, being gentle/touchy) and sending mixed signals (inviting him to his home)... and then just steamrolling him with the rough stuff. Literally an average person doesn't stand a chance. At least, unlike other manhwa, this isn't rapey.

Ja Wook even seems to have to tell himself not to take Gyeom's gestures at face value. It's so sad.

Muchas gracias. Me gusta mucho la mezcla de emociones y de no saber que esperar, tantos pensamientos del uke pero bueno a seguir esperando.

@Ceereus Nicely said! He must sense that Ja-wook wants to break up and is trying to entangle him further. Gyeom really isn't good for Ja-wook, despite his attractiveness, and Ja-wook knows this...

@Sanbaisan Thank you! I don't know if you read my comment on the series but there's something so messed up about this so-called bdsm expert going out of his way to target someone he knows isn't suitable, will never satisfy his urges. It's sort of being presented as out of love by the side characters. Like he doesn't know how to show love so he's using him for sex?

Typical yaoi fare. Yawn. I wish we could get some decent gay angst instead lol.

Wtf Gyeom, you're so twisted hahaha. What he did it felt like when u give your puppy beef and then you pamper him the whole night because you're going to sterilizehim the next day, hahaha. :c

Being honest, mmmm, I do understand that Gyeom is trying to give Jawook what he wants to then obtain what he likes, but somehow this feels unnatural? It is consensual yet it's not been fulfilling for any of them, so I don't really understand what they're waiting for (I mean, I do understand MC's pov but not Gyeom's). U can portray Gyeom as a polite, cold/distant, and smooth guy but there's something pretty apprehensive about him that breaks that image. I also do wonder if he truly likes BDSM or whatever, it just feels like nothing moves him or moves him enough and that kinda worries me? Because wtf does he needs to do or how far does he need to go to feel satisfied? Should we feel grateful that he's showing interest in Jawook or should we feel worried?

Idk but for me, his whole act seems kinda forced as well, like "u must like blood", "u must do this", "proceed this way", "wait till this", "build this in this way", etc. I do understand that maybe he wanted to go slow with Jawook but it doesn't feel organic. Is that how a real person acts? And yeah, he's being pretty manipulative since day 1, but I thought he was just trying to play with Jawook. The more they know each other, their dynamic gets more and more confusing. I just want to know what to expect XD haha, this is getting pretty stressful.

I do like both (I guess) but as I said before, everything feels confusing. He's aware that Jaewook isn't enjoying what they're doing but despite that, he keeps saying with his poker face to take it slow, to relax, etc.

Why would u push someone who can't satisfy u to be with u and vice-versa? He also said not to get emotions mixed but it seems he's taking advantage of the MC's emotions to continue seeing each other, not to say that it's obvious that Gyeom is feeling something as well. That makes me feel confused about his intentions, what's so special about Jawook for Gyeom to act like that? Because dude, if he has two hundred boys waiting for him then he doesn't need him, then why? What does he like about Jawook aside from not telling what he feels and thinks? If both are not on the same page then why he's still there? I do understand for Jawook to act like that since he's more easily attached and feels hungry of love, but what about Gyeom?

It's also interesting the conversation he had with the idol and the manager and how everyone in the bar was talking about Gyeom's boyfriend. He didn't deny it when he was in front of the manager and he let the rumor spread in that place with the many people in the hotel's bar, like... why? In the beginning, I thought he was the type to care a lot about his privacy and professional and personal life mixed but it doesn't seem so anymore. And by the fact that he hasn't done it with anyone else it's giving the vibes that he likes Jawook now, but then what's the purpose of everything else? Because if that's the case, then we're just making things complicated without need.

Idk how to feel about it, I don't feel angry, nor sad, nor happy for them, it's just a numb feeling. Yeah, emotions are coming from both Gyeom and Jawook but I feel like we haven't seen any of them getting deep into their roles (which kinda breaks with the whole BDSM stuff), we haven't seen them getting fully immersed in their feelings neither and idk, their relationship and dynamic together doesn't feel real yet.

Tysm for sharing this story with us, I want to see where it ends.
Btw, that other man was Jawook's ex, isn't it? I want to know the truth behind that relationship as well (he looks like a psycho if u ask me, lol)!
