5.0
Did not know what to expect when I began reading this manwha, but I was quickly sucked in and it made for one hell of a rollercoaster ride. Homophobia, racism, xenophobia, gang violence, human rights, mental illness, rape, abuse, etc., are all touched on in very meaningful ways throughout the story, which makes it incredible, but this can also be very triggering for some readers (proceed with caution). With that being said, it is heavy - I read it within a couple of days but I can't tell you the amount of times I silently said "NOOO" to myself, and/or felt the tears welling in my eyes. However, it is a fantastic read, and will definitely get you to think about how these issues are being delt with in the real world. There is smut (duh, it's BL), but it fits in well with the overarching story and you can't help but cheer for the two main characters. I will be reading this one again.
