HEYYYY YES ITS BEEN A YEAR BUT WHO EXPECTED UNI LIFE TO BE SO EFFIN BUSY. LOOK AT MY EYE BAGS, IT’S SO DARK I CAN’T EVEN. So finally after such a long time hiatus, I’m back to shit on my blog and go. Who knows when I’ll be back. lololololol I’m such a good blogger, abandoning my blog for almost a year and coming back to post something and hoping if anyone would understand, and give a comeback or opinion about CITT together with me.
AND NO GODDAMMIT I’M NOT TALKING ABOUT CITT AS IN THE K-DRAMA ONE BUT I’M TALKING ABOUT THE ORIGINAL WEBTOON SERIES ‘KAY BECAUSE THEY ARE LIFE. THEY ARE MY LOVE. THEY ARE MY SOUL. (no seriously I’m just too into the webtoon series, I can’t accept the live-action adaptation that’s all).
My love for CITT is bigger than what I have for my boyfie, my family, even myself (im just kidding everyone please dont hurt me). I just finished reading CITT from oddsquad translation, having a mental breakdown because I have to wait years for Soonki to finish the webtoon and save me from my misery. GODDAMMIT YOU SOONKI YOU WONDERFUL BAST———- (soonki i love u very much u have to know that).
So as I was saying, I fnished reading from oddsquad, ripping my head off of frustration because of Jung, then I surfed the internet to seek enlightenment, hoping someone would explain the possibility of WHAT THE FUCK IS IN THOSE PRETTY BEAUTIFUL HEAD OF JUNG. I CAN’T UNDERSTAND HIM. I CAN’T FIGURE HIM OUT. NO MATTER HOW I TRY TO ANALYZE HE’S SUCH A BIG QUESTION MARK. I’ve always been the one to figure out a storyline, no matter how fucked up it is. Even if it will turn out to be something completely different of my expectation, some of my points about the characters or the storyline will usually be right. Or at least I can predict the big picture of the ending. LOL NO SHIT IM NO SHERLOCK EVERYONE DONT LISTEN TO ME IM JUST HAVING A MOMENT OF SELF WORTH JUSTIFICATION WHEN I AINT NO SHIT PLZ FORGIVE ME. However it is true that a lot of plots for webtoons, mangas, or manhwas are predictable that when I read them I will just be like yea yea yea wtv i kno how dis will end up anyway. Ok i’ve strayed too far from the main point. My point is (lol) that I can’t seem to find the discussion about this webtoon. Whatever I type, anything that comes up is usually about the drama series that I don’t give a fuck. I’ve never been one to like a drama adaption of webtoon series, mangas, manhwas, or anything. I’d rather stick to the “original” one, since the adaptation usually (ALMOST ALL OF THE FUCKIN TIME) ruins the original series’ images in my head. No offense to Park Hae Jin but no I want my Jung to stay in 2d perfect shape thank u very much. So yea since it’s hard to find a discussion forum to my liking, I decided to put up my thoughts instead of waiting for someone to prove a point for me.
I’ve read CITT a long time ago. At first I was so confused I almost drop this because I’m not used to the artwork style. But chapter by chapter, I’m hooked. HOOKED LIKE A BITC—-. I even, for a fact, not open oddsquad for months (MONTHS YOU HEAR ME. MONTHS IN AGONY) just so I can read numerous chapters at once, instead of biting my nails and ripping them apart every week waiting for new chapter to be translated. That’s how far my love is for CITT. That’s how much love I have for Jung and Seol. That’s how much sacrifice I made– (okay shut up).
I even planned to not open until the series end. But no I can’t. I re-read the webtoon on line app yesterday (worst choice I made this week since I ended up wasting two whole days of my life) and decided to come back to oddsquad to re-read and for more. I MEAN I RE-READ THIS WEBTOON FOR NUMEROUS TIMES (no kidding) BUT MY LOVE HAVEN’T DECREASED EVEN FOR AN INCH. WHY. SOONKI WHAT HAVE U DONE TO ME.
SPOILER ALERT
YOU’VE BEEN WARNED!!
Instead of grabbing a plane ticket in an instant and go to Korea to demand Soonki a personal explanation (which i considered for a while), I decided “hey why not check out the ending summary from the drama…. i heard it sucks but hey….it may enlighten me a bit………” lol lookie at another worst decision I made this week. They’re not kidding when they said the ending sucks. I know it will be different from the webtoon’s ending and the story will be different or is different and all but it disappoints me. I’m very afraid now that the webtoon will have a similar ending to it. Even if it’s different I’m afraid the big picture of the ending will be similar or the same : them breaking up. I won’t accept that. I know if that happens I would not function normally in the society for a month. Just like what Death Note did to me (that shit still hurts).
I agree that some state that the main charm of the webtoon is Jung’s mysterious side and how we are forced to figure him out with the main character, Seol. It’s kind of an adventure together with the main character, a thrilling one at that.
The story plot is genius. It may seem to be a usual, slice of life, school drama kind of stuff at first. But those who read CITT from beginning until now will understand that it is not as simple as it may appear. The characters’ developments are amazing. So detailed and tricky. Everything seems so put together. You can’t get hooked by just reading the first few chapters. You have to read continuously to understand the charm and why people are so hooked up on this. CITT is an effin emotional roller coaster.

WHAT THE F IS HAPPENING WHEN JUNG… JUNG… SAID THAT HE AND SEOL IS DIFFERENT. NO. DON’T. DON’T THINK ABOUT IT JUNG. I mean I can see what he means. Seol is much more………………. normal… (?). She’s smarter than your usual teenagers and more put together, maybe that’s why at first Jung thought they were the same or at least similar. That’s what I thought too when Nam Ju Yeong (Idk I don’t remember her exact name) said that they were similar. Seol is indeed quite mature for her age and the way she hates and avoids conflict is really similar to Jung. They both looked like they were fed up with the shits their surroundings are giving them and they rather pretend to blend in (or even sacrificing themselves) just to avoid having troubles. Now that aspect is where I find them to be so similar, almost the exact same. But as the chapter goes, I see that Jung is trickier than Seol. Seol, at least, know when she should straighten her backbone and play fair with her opponent. She isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty when the situation needs it. Which makes her very different than Jung who’s more of a “puppet master” kind of character. He plays it very carefully, planned to perfection, and doesn’t get his hand dirty. He drove his opponents to the cliff and let them fall to their death by themselves. He wouldn’t push them, he would just make them fall on their own. He would put pressure on his opponents with no mercy, but he wouldn’t be the pressure. Others will do the role for him. I say Jung would be a perfect partner for Light. Now I think about it, they are somehow pretty similar in that aspect. Pfft let’s stop right here.
What I’m afraid of the most is the time when Jung will feel that the distance between him and Seol is just too big for a gap. I’m afraid that it will break them completely apart. Like how the drama goes (fck). I just hope they will never give up. The truth is I kinda like Jung’s character. He’s so twisted. I’m getting kind of sick of main male character who is misunderstood and actually really kind behind his mean facade.
Holy Shit.
I’ve just realized.
With how I put it, Jung sounds exactly like a Yandere. No I don’t want to call him that 😦
I want to know others’ thoughts and speculations about the ending. Anyone is welcome to comment about it.
Ciao.
