Description
“Your brother borrowed three thousand, just the principal, and the cremation cost five hundred today. How are you going to pay it back?” “P-please, not my eyes… C-can’t you just… take one… one of my kidneys…?” “No. Why would I?” Baek Pilsung, the top gangster, lived a smooth-sailing life, fearing nothing. That is, until he met Nam Wooyoon, a ridiculously naive, insignificant, and adorably cute guy. Pilsung, visiting the deceased debtor’s body, falls in love at first sight with the terrified Wooyoon. He then devotes himself to winning Wooyoon over. “…I didn’t buy you this, did I? You said you didn’t have a phone.” “…Ugh, please spare me…” “Who the f*ck said I was going to kill you?” “I’m… sorry.” “Are you sorry?” A gangster’s courtship, interpreted as a threat by an ordinary person. Due to Pilsung’s rough speech and appearance, Wooyoon mistakenly believes him to be a loan shark who also deals in organ trafficking. He desperately tries to avoid Pilsung. Completely oblivious to this, Pilsung, believing a special connection exists between them, confesses his feelings and asks Wooyoon out. “I’ve never seen anyone who looks like you. I can’t get you out of my head. It’s driving me crazy thinking about you, what the f*ck am I supposed to do?” “…….” “f*ck it, I’ll be a fool for you. I’ll be your sucker.” “…….” “I’ll protect you. I’ll find your brother.” “…….” “Go out with me.” The tearful, unrequited love story of Baek Pilsung, transitioning from top gangster to lovesick fool!

My Thoughts on One Day, A Gangster…
"One Day, A Gangster…" certainly presented me with an intriguing premise. The blend of omegaverse, gangster themes, and a hefty dose of humor promised a unique reading experience. After diving in, I found myself both charmed and slightly conflicted. It's a story that's easy to get swept up in, but it also has elements that require a bit of a discerning eye.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the potential for comedic misunderstandings and the promise of a strong, albeit flawed, male lead. The setup, with a gangster falling for a seemingly meek omega, felt like a classic trope ripe for subversion. I was eager to see how the author would navigate the delicate balance between power dynamics and genuine connection.
What Works Well
The humor is definitely a strong point. I found myself chuckling at the ridiculous situations the characters find themselves in. The author does a good job of blending lighthearted moments with more serious undertones, exploring the discrimination faced within the omegaverse society. I appreciated that the characters, while not overly complex, felt believable in their reactions and motivations. The male lead, despite his questionable profession, is portrayed with a surprising amount of vulnerability and self-awareness. He acknowledges his flaws and doesn't try to excuse his behavior, which I found refreshing. The dynamic between the leads, built on a foundation of misunderstanding and burgeoning affection, kept me invested in their journey.

Final Verdict
"One Day, A Gangster…" is a flawed but ultimately enjoyable read. It's a story that doesn't shy away from exploring complex themes within a fantastical setting. While the consent issues are a valid concern, the overall narrative arc, with its humor, heart, and surprisingly endearing characters, kept me engaged. If you're a fan of omegaverse stories with a touch of dark humor and don't mind navigating some potentially uncomfortable situations, this might be worth checking out. Just go in with a critical eye and be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions.
