My Thoughts on A Contracted Gangster Who Has to Die to Survive
First Impressions
Okay, so "A Contracted Gangster Who Has to Die to Survive" is a mouthful, but the premise definitely grabbed my attention. The blend of action, comedy, drama, fantasy, and yaoi? I was intrigued! Diving in, I quickly found myself rooting for our protagonist, Woo Kyung, as he navigates this crazy situation. It's the kind of story where you immediately want the best for the main character, even when he's making questionable decisions.
What Works Well
The comedic elements really shine in this novel. The dynamic between Woo Kyung and Taejoon is hilarious, especially given the setup. Taejoon, the supposedly ruthless gangster, is basically a blushing mess around Woo Kyung, and it's incredibly endearing. The author has done a great job subverting expectations with his character. I’m genuinely invested in their relationship, and I'm eager to see how it develops. I also appreciate the attention to detail in Woo Kyung's idol career. It's clear that the author has put thought into the group dynamics and the pressures of the industry.
Areas of Concern
While I love the idol aspect, I do feel like it could be explored a little more deeply. I want to see Woo Kyung performing, not just hear about it! It feels like a missed opportunity to showcase his talents and add another layer to his character. I hope the author revisits this element and perhaps even gives Woo Kyung a chance to shine as a solo artist. I also wonder if the story will be able to maintain its momentum as the plot progresses.
Final Verdict
Overall, "A Contracted Gangster Who Has to Die to Survive" is an enjoyable and engaging read. The humor is on point, the characters are well-developed, and the romance is surprisingly sweet. Despite a few minor shortcomings, I'm definitely hooked and excited to see where the story goes next. If you're looking for a fun and unconventional web novel with a unique blend of genres, I'd recommend giving this one a try.
