I like stories like this one. As in, manhwas where sex isn't a plot device essentially written for the cheap thrills (looking at you, Omegaverse and guideverse), where there's an actual plot (looking at you PWPs that masquerade as stories but are failing at it), an actual story that makes narrative sense, where the main characters don't just jump into having gratuitous sex and there is actual development (looking at....well it's hard to name them, they are so maaaaany) and the writer has done their research and due diligence before writing the story (looking at all the manhwas set in Russia or with russian characters, or where MC is a spy and others).
I like that the characters have goals, aspirations, the uke has a solid personality that doesn't just revolve around the seme (looking at you jinx, and many others), the seme isnt a sex crazed jealous maniac with his brain in his dick, and the macro story goes beyond their relationship. A well rounded story, that explores not only the characters but also encapsulates the time, location, culture, era, the weltenschauung. I have read easily two hundred bl manhwas but well written stories, i can count on my fingers. Although the length of schlongs in this bl is disturbingly unnatural like in most manhwas, but oh well, we pick our battles.
