Switching the POV

After rereading this story carefully — first only from the ML’s POV (excluding all of Yigon’s), and then again trying not to be biased towards Yigon — I came to a few conclusions:

1. From ML’s POV, Yigon really does come across as unstable or even delusional.
ML ran multiple background checks on Yigon’s claims and found nothing suspicious. So when Yigon had his anxious breakdown, it understandably made him look like someone losing touch with reality — even like a drug addict dealing with aftereffects.

2. ML might have had a crush on Yigon long before this contract.
His PA and the brother both mentioned that ML’s past one-night stands(ONS) all looked strikingly similar to Yigon. At first, I thought Yigon was just “lucky” that ML happened to like his face. But after rereading, it feels like Yigon is actually the original blueprint, while the ONS partners were merely echoes of him. Maybe we’ll even get a flashback one day showing ML’s first time noticing Yigon.

3.Yigon isn’t really in love with ML.
What he feels is attachment to the comfort ML provided — because it was the first time he felt alive and safe. So when we thought Yigon was “the one who fell first,” that was actually bait from the author. His feelings don’t stem from true love but rather fear of losing that comfort. In contrast, the one truly crazy in love here is ML.

4. So why did ML treat Yigon so badly if he loved him from the start?
Because he was in denial. Attendants even pointed out that ML’s behavior with Yigon was not how he usually treated his flings — it was out of character. A lot of his cruelty comes from the power imbalance of the contract and that immature “bully-your-crush” dynamic.

5.Yigon’s brother is a born serial killer
No wonder this mf is stupid in bussiness this bitch was born to be a serial killer prodigy. He’s manipulative and cruel in a way that makes my blood boil every time I read how he treats Yigon.

6.Taekang disappointed me in the latest update.
Not once did he ask how Yigon was feeling. He just walked in and said, “I have a question to ask,” instead of something like, “Are you okay? How’s your injury?” That lack of basic concern hurt to read.

7. Final thought: I want a new ML.
I want Yigon to finally grow a spine, stand up to his brother, and flip a middle finger to ML while he’s at it.
