Top tier yaoi... The uke and the backstory could have been better, but a true winner!

Whoa what a rollercoaster of emotions and what a powerful manhwa! Love love loved it! So many questions pop into your head whiel reading it... And no clear answers are given. I love it! As a true romantic at heart, I somehow believe that the seme has some specs of emotion for the uke, despite being a hard core psychopath. It's not the love we have come to expect, but heck, who are we to gauge such delicate and nuanced things? And the plot is truly brilliant. the characters, the story line, the narration style, the twists and turns... You are never sure what's going on and whats gonna happen!

I think that the background over the uke's sister and her suicide was not well explained, and this marred the uke's motivations to a degree. The uke himself is also not written evenly. The seme is written top line, and I understand that the uke is a starinkly different type, but he never really impressed (until the extras, at some moments) and I have the feeling that he could have been a top tier char, if only they gave him more personality and character outside of his revenge scheme and his relationship with the seme.
However, when you stumble upon such a diamond in the sea of mostly mediocre (but solid) yaoi, it's worth sticking it out with some relatively minor flaws. Simpyl enjoy it...

It made me want to know more about 1 level psychopaths (antisocial disorder)

So, this is a veeeery good story, I enjoyed it a lot and binged I in one seat: look at the tags and the other review, if you're fine with the warnings, please read this one.
I don't usually read yaoi stuff but I bumped into this manga while looking for something smut and psychological, I was hoping for it to be as good as Ten Count but this work exceeded my expectations.
It is perfect: the perfect dose of drama and fanservice. The author said that what Kang Moo feel isn't love and I somehow both agree and disagree: I think he's just unable to understand and express it and prioritizes his desire over a more noble feeling, but somehow I feel like he cares for Kirin and Kirins is aware of that. Kirin understood and has accepted how Kang Moon works.
Of course their relationship is romanticizes but, tbh, I'm happy for it, so if someone asked me: "is Kang Moo unable to love?" I'd probably say "no". It is a story about two people who want to be together, no matter what. It's distorted, twisted but I feel it's okay to call it love.
Kang Moo is trying hard to fight his nature.
I'm not sure this is realistic but it's okay, I like it the way it is, it's definitely better than having Kang Moo kill Karin. I don't want the reality to slap me in the face, I'm fine with a sweet lie ❤️
Beautiful work ❤️, a lot of sex but it never gets boring, the only thing I wish would have happened is: (SPOILER ALERT, idk how to hide the text, sorry)
I wish they switched roles at least once, when Kirin got a blowjob I was like jumping and dancing out of happiness ~ I'm sad it didn't happen

excellent writing and art is good too (improves a lot later on) however

However this work was in the end Not my cup of tea atmosphere whise and overall type of relationship down the line that they had.

The art significantly improves later on. The sex scenes were SO good. The writing is excellent (dialogue wise, how they spoke to each other) but one of the MCs characterization are kind of....hm? I'm saying that on the real type of personality that they have
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
which is a psychopath who is interested in Lee Kirin but not in the unconditional love sense. I will give props to the author that they kept Moo consistent in the sense that he still has psychopatic urges, and Lee Kirin is more of a thing he is interested than having actual deep love for. At the same time its kind of weird that he has been in a "relationship" with Lee Kirin for SO long for SO MANY YEARS (as evident of the timeskips). Viceverse. Their relationship at the end of the day is a bit fucked up and bitter sweet.
. Only read this if you are okay with an unconventional relationship.

Always happy and a real treat

So I've read The Beast Must Die for the 5th time now, whenever I publish a new print edition (German edition) I order it and start reading from the beginning. The Yoai story is simply the best I've ever read and I've read 399 already, but The Beast Must Die stays in 1st place for me. Not only the story but also the drawings are absolutely amazing and beautiful. I am particularly pleased because there are far too few print editions of Korean Manhwa's - it really is a gap in the market.
I hope that Lee Hyeon-Sook will also publish his new story "I'll Be Here for You" as a print edition... I would be very happy.

Good enough

I enjoyed the dark themes. Although the problem with this is Kang Moo shows too much attachments for a psychopath. There's nothing human about a psychopath so the depiction of Kang Moo seems a bit wishy washy. Especially since Kang Moo get's excited by murder. There's no way he can be held down by relationship.

i did thoroughly enjoy this one, both characters are quite fucked up people imo. i like how kang moo didn’t really get rid of his tendencies magically just cuz he found “love”

I'm sooo happy, finally this manhwa was picked up by a group. I waited for almost three years I think. This manhwa is a little bit twisted, but all Lee Hyeon Sook's previous works has been like that so there's nothing new I think. The art is absolutely beautiful, and the plot is completely dark, It incloudes murders, corpses, etc. But I don't care 'cause the main BL couple compensate It. I'm looking forward for the next chapters! 😍😍😍
