In the novel the MC had the ML gangraped when they were in highschool (I think) and the MC lost his memories so the ML is doing this as revenge. The only difference i see so far is that in the novel the ML didn't give a crap about the MC after his gangrape but in the recent chapters of the Manga we can see the ML caring and regretting what he did so I'm hoping it ends better and happier than the novel lmao..
Idk if I misunderstood the plot, but as far I remembered, it was the same in the novel isn't it? T-T Juyeon showed sympathy/care/guilt before he bought Jiwook to his home. Mostly when Jiwook joke about him taking his own life (prolly coz it reminds Juyeon of his hospitalized family).
ML is a black flag and what he did to MC is like many times worse than what the MC did to him. But what he'd been gone through, as an underage, also ain't light either. I think his psycho tendencies is some kind of coping mechanism(?), for the traumatic experience and the state of his mom it resulted in, and also some form of revenge
The thing I'm kinda looking forward is, the extra chapters where they're back to daily scene (the campus, etc) and already had some sort of resolvement. which actually not sure would be adapted into the manhwa or not (I mean, even tho it's not exactly fluff, but it's better than the main story)
This is seriously messed up. What could be the reason behind all this? The only theory I have is that he had a brother who took his own life because Jiwook used to beat him up or something similar. Now, he's trying to get revenge in his own twisted way, even though deep down he seems to have a kind heart—just completely broken and lost.
That's my hypothesis.
