things aren't 100% confirmed since we still haven't gotten cheoljin's pov BUT imo it's clear that cheoljin really really really likes minwoo ;~; like he actually is very intensely quietly suffering rn with minwoo liking norman...later on minwoo treats him pretty badly during sex (cheoljin feels nothing while bottoming finds it painful/triggers his OCD-ish tendencies + minwoo is rough) but he hides all of it from minwoo even manipulates the situation so that minwoo doesn't notice him bleeding ;~;) basically he's the type to quietly endure and hide ALL of his struggles and emotions so it causes all kinds of misunderstandings...the issue with him is that he's TOO good at hiding his emotions - even with this latest english chapter cheoljin is likely insecure about how minwoo is judging where he's living rn and hurt by how minwoo is demanding his help with norman but he's just quietly "...." + tries to manipulate the situation so no one catches it
but like cheoljin is also absolutely kind of insane, controlling and manipulative LMAO his personality is so fascinating (one of my favs in all of BL)--- lowkey i feel like he thinks him and minwoo never broke up and that minwoo is "cheating" on him rn fjsalkdjf anyways there are tons of misunderstandings between them that are only hinted but it's likely class related. all signs show that he comes from a super poor family (rougher than jaehyun), was basically boy-mom to younger siblings -- to this day minwoo seems to have no clue about his circumstances? idk minwoo definitely has blind spots, including when it comes to his own privilege. (so those hints in previous chapters about how cheoljin went through a hard time in HS and worked a billion jobs...that was when he "betrayed" minwoo somehow (through minwoo's pov) so we know something probably went down then). ...so the misunderstanding between him and minwoo is likely stemming from a lot of issues linked to cheoljin hiding his circumstances, his attempt to be "equal" to minwoo, but also his naturally hyper-rational, controlling personality and manipulativeness (that he relied on to survive all this time)

they're actually at PEAK misunderstanding right now in the story in a very toxic cycle ;~;
rn it's basically like: anything Cheoljin says/does (even when he's being honest)--> Minwoo "this fucker is manipulating and lying again" lashes out and is angry --> Cheoljin gets more desperate and possessive, so becomes more manipulative and also hides his hurt by putting on an act --> Minwoo "this asshole is ALWAYS LYING" etc etc
in the recent chapters we have minwoo leaving cheoljin alone after VERY rough sex...cheoljin hid he was hurt and was like let's have lunch together! and then minwoo make a false accusation accusing cheoljin of stealing the hairband that norman gave him. cheoljin's patience definitely snapped and he revealed his (lowkey scary) side - but then regretted it and is obviously upset when minwoo leaves. now minwoo is ranting to an upperclassman about cheoljin lmao there's a lot of memories from when they were in middle school
things are probably going to have to blow up before they get better tbh...they're definitely the most intense relationship out of the three and they kind of drag everyone (like jaehyun) into their mess hahaha

there are quite a few scenes before that are mixed with norman but i would say 149 is around where it becomes focused on cheoljin and minwoo and then around 152 that's when there are a lot flashbacks from their past (from minwoo's pov) (and they have super drawn out sex where it's hard to tell who will top fjldkas) https://newtoki468.com/webtoon/42178998?toon=BL%2FGL
Posting this here if people are confused
CP 1: Suyong (orange hair) and Jaehyun (black hair)
CP2/CP3: Sungtaek (tall dude), Norman (short dude), Minwoo (long grey hair), Cheoljin (black hair-blue eyed)
The CORE complicated/hating relationship/misunderstandings are between Minwoo, Cheoljin and Jaehyun
Minwoo and Jaehyun knew each other from childhood (when Jaehyun was moving back and forth between Seoul and where Minwoo lived).
Minwoo and Cheoljin know each other from middle school and high school in Seoul (sorry if this is a spoiler). Jaehyun I think joins the same school (middle school and high school)
Minwoo:
- hates/loves (?) Cheoljin bc he thinks Cheoljin was playing and using him the whole time, esp when Cheoljin disappeared (I think around high school) and broke his heart
- hates Jaehyun bc of some misunderstanding (we don't fully know yet, but it's suggested that he caused something to him and Cheoljin's relationship).
Cheoljin
- HATES Jaehyun (again, we don't fully know yet), but C especially hates "thieves" (remember, Jaehyun stole his money at ktv) and "people who play victim" (thinks Jaehyun is using Suyong)
- how he feels towards Minwoo is *spoilers* bc right now in the story we believe Minwoo and think Cheoljin is playing with him. But happy to spoil if anyone wants~
Jaehyun
- HATES Cheoljin (thinks he's manipulative; remember, he flirted with Jaehyun back in high school even though Jaehyun knew he had a thing with Minwoo)
- towards Minwoo, it's complicated. formerly (with Suyong) was angry bc Minwoo was deliberately spreading bad rumors about him and hitting on Suyong. but now, might actually want to help Minwoo bc he still remembers how Minwoo defended him in their childhood. In middle/high school, Jaehyun knew Minwoo had a crush on Cheoljin and thought about helping out. But later/now, probably thinks he's helping Minwoo by keeping Cheoljin away.
OTHER CONNECTIONS
Suyong and Cheoljin were BFF in high school (hence the drama of Jaehyun "not liking Suyong's friends" + Cheoljin trying to "expose" Jaehyun to Suyong in earlier chapters)
- one of Suyong's friends (the bald-ish guy) did NOT like Cheoljin and thought Cheoljin was using Suyong. Ends up stabbing (?) C though we don't know fully why
Norman and Sungtaek knew each other as kids.
OK! let me know if you have other questions. esp for spoilers about Minwoo and Cheoljin I could write an essay about them
