and the fact that sihyun did not leave a single mark on the mc's body... breaks my heart a little cuz well.. he did say that he'll make sure that the 'main chic' won't find out. what is even the mc thinking?? what made him commit to this misunderstanding?? does he think that this is also sihyun's kink? he basically made sihyun believe he's a mistress and made him commit to that role. everything was ok besides this thing. i hate anything cheating

mc committed to the misunderstanding because ml accuse him of being a cheater first. sure he was pretending to be married, but even as he pretended to be married, he remained "loyal" to the role of a dedicated husband and wasn't sleeping around (after all, their first time is their actual first time sleeping together).
ml caused his own misunderstanding and pissed off mc, who could have easily told the truth, but why tell the truth when you're pissed off someone thinks of you that way when you haven't done a single thing to insinuate it. reminder mc had no clue ml was wanting to sleep with him until last minute. mc was just trying to do well at work and socialize with his coworkers and work-partners. ml was the one who mistook those actions and assumed mc was sleeping with colleagues. imo mc could have told the truth but ml doesn't have a good image of him to begin with. and that is the conflict. hopefully to unravel in s2.
so much misunderstanding... i don't care for anything else, but the misunderstanding that the ML is a mistress (what's the boy version of mistress??? i forgot) is something that i really want to clear up between them. reading the ml's past, i have an intuition that his mother is a mistress, and her saying "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree"... it breaks my heart somehow cuz the ml practically accepted that he really doesn't fall far from the tree cuz of his relationship with the mc. maybe he hates himself for it too. im dropping this, maybe I'll pick it back up when this misunderstanding clears up.
