Mystery endings rarely get love

by harmone2528

Rating: 10.0 / 10.0

I think it was really really great and I binge read this 4 season giant in a day, so I'll have to read it again soon 😁

First, it's rare that a mystery comic translated from another language is ever understandable at all. A lot usually gets lost in translation and I usually just read for the couple. But I was able to follow this one the entire time. The only questions I had were intentional by the author. I definitely read closely though because I was on the edge of my seat the entire time.

I couldn't put it down! This was really impressive for many reasons, including the ending haha. This is some of the best art I've ever seen, and the symbolism throughout was beautiful, poetic, and intriguing.

I LOVE these MCs, they're complicated enough that they're not flat, they each have a beautiful growth cycle, and they're both a bit cheeky,

And I really liked the ending. I believe a lot of people were looking for the perfect happy ending and I believe this was a very believable ending.

The ending was happy, and there was somewhat of a "snap your fingers, the bad guys gone" but honestly not when you think about it. The display of Ideun protecting the prosecutor was the same as the bad guy when he was a child. It's the first time he's shown a mirror of himself truly, and he's seeing his father looking back. His hatred of his father is what has justified all of his actions, people rarely believe they're doing the WRONG thing. But seeing himself turn into his father, his 'evil' he's fighting against, truly would drive him mad. Beautifully poetic honestly. And the father's response in the side stories of why he hated the brother so much "Because he looked like his father," the same reason the brother hated our MC. Just beautiful CHEF'S KISS! Unfortunately, no the family isn't punished despite allowing the brothers abuse to go on. And that's exactly how it would be in real life. Once you're an adult, it's rare the abuser is ever punished let alone the people who didn't stop it. That being said, it says in the side story right away that he has let go of his attachment to those bad relationships. Which is the most chance of happiness he has. Many SA survivors choose to never confront their abusers and it's important to respect that choice. Familial abuse comes with many many complicated emotions so a lot of people wish to live separate lives regardless of punishment. It's as happy of an ending it could be without being completely unrealistic.

I highly recommend reading this to everyone!

The ending tho…

This story was great, and the art was really interesting. I was so drawn in by all the storylines. It had so much depth and then in the final ark of the story everything went to shit. Major plot points were dealt with either off panel or not at all. To say the ending was rushed is an understatement.

SPOILERS (& my rant) AHEAD

The main accomplice of the brother at the very end just turns himself in and spills the beans about everything claiming he hated the brother all along anyway…and we never see him again

Then the fact that the abuse the brother put the MC through was never really addressed is crazy enough, but the fact that the brother then dies or goes into a coma he’s never waking up from off panel under heavy equipment in an implied suicide is nuts.

Then at the very end the Dad I guess really never really gave an F about anybody just assign the MC with the hotel business part of the conglomerate as if that’s supposed to make him get over the fact that the brother SA ‘d him all the time, and everybody knew and just ignored it.

If you’re gonna read this story, anyway, I would recommend you not invest in the plot and read it for the art and the seggs.

well written story

For the most part i was hooked with the storyline, it was clear that the author indeed put in a lot of research while developing the story.

My gripe with this story, like others will mention if they had read the whole story, is that the ending felt very underwhelming, considering how the whole story started out. It felt comical that the >! uke's brother just... got crushed under construction materials and never appeared again. also i felt that we could have explored his character more but could be just >! me. Well, since there will be side stories coming out soon, the ending might be clearer for us.

It used to be one of my fav manhwa but the ending destroyed everything.

First of all what the actual heck happened in the 4th season. It used to be one of my fav manhwa even tho I red the 1st, 2nd and 3rd seasons with unofficial translation and I was lost many times. I red the whole 4th season with official translation and I it was even worse. I don't know if the author has some health problems or sth (bc there were a lot of hiatuses at the end) but the ending was so rushed I couldn't enjoyed it at all. Maybe the whole 4th season wasn't that bad bc I still enjoyed it but the last 3/4 chapters were just so confusing???? Especially the last 2 of them bc it was just a short refutation of what happened that they finally cought that fuck ass brother. Idk how to even rate this. The last chapter was so short and didn't do anything to end the story with respect. I'm so dissapointed with the ending.

Enjoyed the story for most time but

Season 4 was a bit of a disappointment. After knowing each other for so long and sharing so much trauma it's crazy they still lacked the communication.

Also! The hell was the ending about? Whole arc about bad guys finally being taken responsible was taking so long, that I was expeting the final arrest and trial to be so epic. It was exactly opposite of that. Really rushed ending, many hiatuses between chapters (for like 2-3 months it really went like 1 chapter, 3 weeks hiatus, 1 chapter, 2 weeks hiatus) and disappointing final. Why the worst guy's possible fall was introduced to a reader after the fact by a 3rd person? Crazy. Last episode was also really unsatisfactory.
