I really hate Lata.
She goes about cursing and showing her disgust at Heechul's actions, yet, when Heechul is injured, she practically sells Yunho off.
To me, she is a hypocrite in regards to her beliefs and way of life.
They are something which she can pick and choose to accept whenever it suits her.

I hope that Yunho will return safely and be treated kindly.

I think Yunho was quite disillusioned about Lata after what happened to Heechul as well. I mean, she did betray everything she had been preachin about, letting Yunho go like that. I understand they have a dozen mouths to feed but even so.....

We will see what happens to Yunho, hopefully soon :)

Thank you for reading!^^

They sold Yunho to slavery or prostitution? When will they meet again? All these questions running in my head. But glad to see an update. Thank you!

[taemun]

Did they sell Yunho? Or was he kidnapped? I wonder if they are the kind of people who would actually sell away one of their members. Though practically forcing someone to work as a whore is also selling, I guess.

Thank you for reading!^^

that was unexpected...yunho finally left, not in the best way but he did...that place did him no good i think, even if they protected him...it is too messy for a young man!
i pity heechul's faith...things would have been sooooooo different!
now faith has to play everything right and bring them together !!
thank you author nim

[taemun]

He did leave indeed... maybe he will have a better chance at finding Jaejoong, now :)

That place was messy indeed, and since Yunho is even more messed up inside his head... Not a good match ^^;

YunJae, if anyone, are destined.... They shall meet again :)

Thank you for reading^^

Whatever went wrong I can only sense it's better for him to move on and maybe get closer to finding Jaejoong. Not that that would make him ungrateful or anything like that because I think he's learned what he was meant to learn from living there. I think both Lata and Heechul gave him very useful lessons that he can now make use of. As he matures it will be up to him to take what pieces of knowledge he'll make use of and pave his own path in life. It feels like an accumulation of knowledge, like a quest of sorts, which will lead him back full-circle to Jaejoong.
The scene where he gets lost is the dance shows another talent he has grown fond of and has developed well by the cheers they got at the wedding.
Thank you I missed this story very much. Thank you!

It's really nice to see how different perceptions different readers have of Lata; your view is quite close to mine, tbh. It's true that Yunho has learnt a lot during his stay, but it's also true that he has grown up. Maybe soon, he will have the chance of not always trying to follow everyone else's orders and ideas, but actually making his own life the way he himself sees good and proper.

I sure hope that full circle is slowly drawing to completeness... even as the author, I miss YunJae being togehter xD

Thank you so much for reading~^^

It looks like they sold Yunho!
He prepared to replace Heechul at making money but that client just took him away! I guess Lata thought it will benefit Yunho who had promising abilities and skills so he deserved to live at a different, better place instead of this nearly hopeless one, but still it's so sad because they were his family...
Although maybe I'm wrong and they didn't know what was waiting for Yunho when they prepared him to be Heechul's replacement for the night...

And I'm glad Heechul approached him to teach him his thoughts and desires aren't bad and he shouldn't feel ashamed for his feelings! Even if he hadn't enough chance to convince Yunho I really hope his efforts just shoved Yunho in the right direction to make peace with himself!

I'm glad you're back, I really missed this story, I liked the part with Yunho's thoughts about the dancing and singing he learnt to enjoy so much that didn't even look at the act like job or obligation but something fun, an occasion he can be truly himself!

Hmm, you really put thought into that! I think both of these scenarios seem very plausible. I am also happy to hear from someone who has a more favourable perception of Lata :) She seems quite hated, even though I have to admit that those opinions are also very reasonable xD

Idk, I just really like it how everyone seems to have a very different view on what has happened to Yunho :)

Yunho really needed Heechul's voice of reason, didn't he? Even though such promiscuous life might not be the right choice to make either, but it made a very important contrast to what Lata was teaching him. I really hope she can help Yunho to make a peace with himself too :)

I'm glad to see you still reading<3 Thank you for that!^^
