- Receive: Once you recognize the Lord, you will take the Lord’s thoughts and thinking as the main focus, and you will not be picky about the environment, and you can ‘receive’.
- Highest: If you are praised, you will walk away in a low-key manner. Everything is based on S and you will be proud of S’s training success, which in turn shows that K9 is also glorious. Therefore, K9 can be taken out to various GT parties, but K8 cannot, so you can only enjoy it at home.

Some additional notes about letter circles
- Origin and Development: The words K0-K7 were created by domestic players. There is only the word K9 abroad, and there are no such words as K0-K8. K9 means ‘human-shaped dog’ abroad. At first, the ’letter circle’ was called ‘sadfast love’ in China, and was translated by sociologists and later popularized by Ms. Li Yinhe’s research. The Taiwanese translation of ‘skin rope pleasurable’ may be closer to its original meaning.
- Understanding and Respect: There are many within-circle terms in the alphabet circle, but many terms do not have a fixed explanation because they represent a certain habit and group. In the process of understanding these terms, you don’t need to go too far and understand their general meanings. Different statements may be correct. If you can find your own space, happiness and satisfaction are the most important thing.
- Volatility and Security: In a normal Sado, the dom and the sub are completely voluntary, and there is no coercion or coercion. Based on complete free will, an unequal social relationship is voluntarily established. Many behaviors in the alphabetical circle may be at risk of inappropriate, immoral or even illegal. Under all circumstances, laws and ethical norms should be abide by and ensure that all actions are carried out voluntarily, safely and healthily.
- The saying ‘M is the master’: There is a saying that ‘M is the master in the training process’ circulated in the alphabet circle, because dom’s control over sub is completely under the default situation of sub.
- Emotional dependence: Sub can gain emotional dependence on dom in social or trained relationships with dom, which is similar to the Stockholm effect. This emotional sustenance may be the long-term lack of sub in life.
