I do love this story I waited years to let it marinate so I could binge read but i definitely felt underwhelmed by the revenge the build up was so much better and important pieces happened “behind the scenes” while he was unconscious…I’m not the biggest fan of the “recap trope” where instead of everything unfolding in front of you they just give you information on what already happened that we missed first hand idk like he wasn’t involved enough in his own revenge towards the end like myungshin literally just ran away at the sight of jay being taemin’s sponsor which is how almost every confrontation between taemin and myungshin went…something unexpected happens and he flees I was expecting a bit more for their final showdown also why do i lowkey feel like the whole actor who evaded the military arc didn’t really matter in the plot in the long run like his character didn’t really do anything else…I still rlly love this story I’m enjoying the side stories maybe even more than the main (bc it feels like it should be part of the main story) i definitely need to get my hands on the novel so I can experience this fully:)
