Why It Should Get Picked Up:
It's a very interesting and more dark themed BL novel that explores the depths of social hierarchy in school and life. Both the ML and MC are not perfect and try their best to fit in. It also explores how ones view towards things change with time. It's a great novel. There will also be a manhwa adaptation in 2025!
Description:
“Go Yohanyou really are a terrible bastard.”

“I can’t help it. Bullying is more fun than being bullied.”

Despite his outer appearance of a kind model studentKang Jun was filled to the brim with an inferiority complex.

As he advanced into his second yearhe grew closer to Go Yohanwho was in the same class as him.

“I’ll treat you especially different.”

At some pointas if it were only naturalGo Yohan claimed his seat at the very summit of the pyramid inside the school.

Hewhose second nature seemed to be ignoring and suppressing othersshowed interest in Kang Jun.

Kang Junwho was subtly ignored by his friends for being weakdidn’t dislike Go Yohan’s interestbut…

Eighteenthe period where one’s pride took the lead and held fear of crossing the line.

Kang Jun had to make a choice to survive.

A very wise choice.

I love this novel and hope someone can pick it up!!

 

Hello I'm assuming you are considering picking up this novel. I found the translators NU username in the reviews of the novelyou can ask them yourself.

Spoiler: username

envyies

 

had a vision of a dmca coming to me in a dream... lol jk on a more serious notethe manhwa adaptation of the novel will definitely make translation crackdowns more strictespecially with how popular this novel is in korea. i didn't want to deal with that shit since i've already been hunted on twitter by an author onceso i just washed my hands clean of it LOL

fyifor anyone wanting to pick this upi would really not recommend it if you use MTL or ai to translate. the way the characters speak will be really hard to truly capture if you dont speak koreanplus some other language issues that machine wont be able to comprehend. of coursei cant stop anybodybut it is one of my favourite novels (i meani even own dolls of go yohan and kang jun ) so i would rather not see a super butchered version...

 

Is no one else going to translate this after vroomvroom? They deleted their website and we can't access the old chapters. I desperately need chapter 11or the one after chapter 10 part 2but I can't access the ridibooks 19+ novels because I don't have a Korean phone... Pleaseoh pleaselet some translator pick this up. I'm dying...

 

Yeahh! Really wish this one gets picked up!!

 

Is there any spoilers?? I want my baby taesan (? Idk if they way I spelled his name is correct) is happy cause I don't like the fact that he's gonna get bullied

 

There’s a way for foreigners to create account and use their own country’s phone number to read 19+ content. You can check on YouTube by account name “Retro Learns Korean” just search up age verification in ridibooks for foreigners or sth.

 

Can someone tell me if it's a happy ending??? I'm reading the novel but I saw someone saying that they don't end up together and I want to know if it's true

 

omg thank you for answering me I'm reading the novel too and I'm already on chapter 10 but it's so much suffering that I want to skip to the end to finish it quickly and know if they will have a happy ending or not

 

OmgI totally get it! I'm only on chapter 4 of the novel but I can already sense this story is going to be such an emotional rollercoaster and they're just high school kids wow...

Heycould you do me a favor and edit your comment and delete my thread? That’d be great. I didn’t realize this wasn’t a spoiler thread and I wouldn’t want anyone to accidentally get spoiled.

I decided to check out the side stories instead because I want to read the main story in order and it doesn’t seem like it has a bad ending. From what I gatheredthe MC has to redo a year of school because he dropped out earlierand now he’s trying to catch up in college. There was some intimacy between MC and Yohanbut it looks like they never actually had sex. Yohan mentioned doing "the same thing they did in the hospital" so I’m guessing they made out or maybe gave each other a blowjob at some point in the main story. After that sessionYohan definitely seems to be getting more touchy with MC now.

In the next side storyI didn’t read everything but jumped to the endand it seems like they finally had sex. I can't tell if it was Yohan but someone said "I really like you a lot" while they were at it. It turns out Yohan didn’t realize that MC had feelings for him because he thought MC was still into Junwoo. When MC confessed he liked Yohan since he was 18Yohan cried but still had doubts. Howeverhe was thankful for the lie and they ended up having sex again.

I have no idea what happened with Junwoo and Taesan but they never come up in the side stories and MC and Yohan never mentioned them.

 

Beside the side storydo you know the ending for junwoo and taesan? Thanks!

 

does anyone know what's gonna happen to yohan with his family? i read a few chapters but dont have coupons to continue and i have a few questions

Spoiler: questions

like how he and jun dealt with yohans family. did they fool them and succeeded in making yohan looks straight? did they reconcile or something? i hope not cuz his familys seems like shit. and how exactly did kang jun fall from the hierarchy? why did he have to repeat a year? how did their relationship develop?

 

Spoiler

I am like at ch 11 and their relationship developed into shit to be honest. It happened because Jun tried to make Yohan eat with his family or something? And Yohan thought he was making fun of him and like started attacking him in his room like twist his arm or something like that and kind of assaulted him? And afterwards it had gone completely downwards with their relationship and the class started to kind of bully Jun? I don't know if it is bullying but they only gossiped about him and no one talked to him etc. (I think they once scribbled something on his desk) I think there was a guy that was nice to him but I only read it in the comments (I can't read the next chapters because you have to pay for the chapters afterwards and I don't really want to spend money so I'm just gonna wait up T-T)

 

bro im in the same situation as you TT

Spoiler

i like his 2 new friends and that one kind guy you said jaehyun or some. its nice to see jun opening his eyes and see his surrounding more. real happy that he seems to be making some genuine connections other than just his crushes' peers. lets pray that the next chapters are gonna unlock soon

 

Yeah I also hope that they unlock soon and that Jun somehow gets his own happiness because he kinda deserves it but I also hope that he changes the way of thinking because I didn't liked his attitude and how he was thinking of others

 

Please tell us more details❤️

 

Hellocan anyone please spoil me the ending ToT

I'm really helpless and

Spoiler: spoiler

I can't take the way Yohan was messing up Jun's school life because of their misunderstanding TvT

 

I haven't read the novel but I'm obsessed with the manhwacan anyone spoil me when their first kiss will be?? I'm just waiting for that moment to happen

 

When is the misunderstanding resolved? Why and how does the ml get revenge on the mcsince he was the one who made the mc misunderstand his relationship with his family?

 

anymore spoilers? and why the MC drop school?
