Yeah the art style has changed a bit from how they looked before but its following the novel.
Like with Taekjoo he becomes more muscular and strong looking while Zhenya gets more pretty or something like that, so while its definitely different from before some of that is due to the changes of the characters looks in the novel!
Completely agree with your other part tho, while the character design and looks are very nice and appealing people need to realize that bro is a complete red flag and separate the two!

Wanted to add something to my previous reply :D
So the artstyle change is actually almost completey due to the novel and trying to make it more accurate with their looks not just "some parts" like I said before lol.
Zhenya is described as a more "pretty" and "angelic" type of handsome while Taekjoo is more of a "manly" and strong type of handsome.
While I like the new art style the old one will be missed fr
I wish they had an edit option for replies so bad lmao.

but zhenya is also described as a beast....like a killing machine that just looks angelic maybe but he is so menacing that taekjoo could FEEL his presence before ever even having laid eyes on him....his physique is much stronger than taekjoos which is why he is being dominated by him who is usually the strongest...like his grip feels like unbreakable steel chains and if he pushes his weight onto of taekjoo he cannot move because he is so heavy...which is why this is so weird how he now looks kinda more dainty than taekjoo what
The art has changed so much they don't even look like how i remember them... What didn't change is him ing him and people yearning for him knowing very well that it's terrible...
What more it didn't endup them just calling him perfect lover but they want a person like him in their real life... I mean read it but remember to clear your mind see what's right and what's wrong.... No one is stopping you from reading such things but use your brain a little..
