Don’t worry if you feel like it’s not worth the hype because most of the hype comes with contexts.
I remember vaguely back then when bj alex came out it was kinda one of the few Korean bl manhwa with beatiful men and well written pace. Manhwa were also starting to become more and more popular along with the villainess-reincarnation-vengeance trope.
Nowadays there are plenty of manhwa like these and you can totally have higher standards for them
It is a masterpiece in comparison to what was published back then ig. And Ngl it's still way better then so many new manhwas, I love the pacing of Bj alex even tho the plot is cliche
When I first read this, I thought it was a masterpiece.
Then i got into other manhwas, and i thought this manhwa was an overrated garbage.
But now I think like, it’s okay I guess, main characters are a little bit annoying but mostly fine and I can get why people love this and it deserves its iconic status among other BL works.
