Fr. Might be a hot take, but I didn't like that one either, I think that mother-son duo couldve lived a fulfilling life even without romantic partners. But I guess the way the manhwa was structured, esp for the mom's, it's inevitable. I rather see her have a successful fish shop, have a late mid life crisis bc all these years she's heen breaking her back to provide for her son she doesn't have to anymore suddenly, then find a new calling for whatever job or hobby she wants to pursue that she couldnt bc she's been in survival mode for decades since her hubby died.
It is what it is, I guess. Hopefully this one doesnt take that much space I still want the manhwa to be centered around mc and not with his romantic interest (copium)

Jealousy? All i hear is mother henning lol. Maybe it's a translation error? Kinda weird to call it jealousy when Young guk is clearly worried for her.
Also, ngl, I wish we don't have this subplot. Not all leads should have leading lady haha anw
