got recommended from tt and they said the preferred the ending and i honestly expected "cool, the puppy love crush wins" but now I've read this and see how it defo should've gone differently.

while i do love karam (i rlly do) as much as junseo, the story's development made it seem junseo and mc got more depth together. for one, junseo's background story was shown more than karam's nonexistent one.

this made karam look perfect, flawless—an enigma and all we know mc likes him for being cool. he doesn't even show much emotions. in contrast, junseo was laid bare for us. i could even argue that junseo had more screentime with mc.

it seemed like the author originally intended for junseo to be the endgame but scraped that idea last minute to be "different". I'd say this is a bittersweet and boring ending. But hey, i like to think there's more to happen in the future for the characters


6.5/10 good for a light read. Not a well fleshed out story but not problematic. The only flaw is the writing but characters are sweet n likeable
