a side couple... seriously...

i may belong to the small few who generally enjoy this manhwa, idk i like to read toxic problematic stuff, i can't help it but the introduction of a side couple into such a complicated, tormented narrative feels really... irresponsible, and lazy. this was my exact issue with viewfinder, too; to shift from a genuinely interesting pair of complex characters that we've followed for however many chapters to two people i literally Do Not Give a Fuck About is really... frustrating! i don't need to waste chapters following after a side couple that fails to serve the story in any meaningful way; i'm here for sooyoung, to watch him navigate his situation & (hopefully) escape it.

i just think a side couple is the last thing this story needs. sooyoung & jihwan are easily compelling enough on their own. anything that takes attention away from their quite necessary development moving forward seems to me like an incredibly foolish decision, narratively speaking

    Exactly I hope the author just focuses only on sooyoung and jihwan because we still haven't gotten far in there relationship
