The depth though

Let's ignore the ships for a while and who you want with who, but let's focus on the fact that the mangaka is giving us actual people with insecurities and screwed up personalities and no perfect moral compass. This stuff feels so painfully real and Haesoo is too relatable.
Or am I just a painfully screwed up individual?

    I think it's mostly relatable to twenty-somethings like us (i'm assuming the number in your username is your birthdate).
    I'm not sure I would have found it relatable if I was younger, with less experience. But yes, I love it and am really enjoying all the characters.

    I know what you mean yea I ship taku with haesoo but that's because I can see Haesoo be himself with taku and let his guard down hopefully in the future. Haesoo is a lot more relatable then I care to admit and the one thing I am most looking forward to is haesoo overcoming his writers block and learning how to speak up for himself. & definitely hoping he realizes his true worth because he thinks way too little of himself.

    Yep, I'm 25. You could be right definitely, I highly doubt someone with less experience would find it relatable. This is why it's so good though, it's not often you find a really serious, relatable BL. Ten Count was one of the rare ones I also found truly relatable due to how screwed up everyone was. It's nice to see a world that isn't black and white.

    Oh, my god, I get you so much, with the whole writers block thing! My number 1 wish isn't even for anyone to end up with anyone but for Haesoo to start loving himself a bit more or really just accepting himself? I'm not even sure who I ship with who anymore, but I feel like there will be no endgame in a way? That endgame will be Haesoo deciding to forgive himself and just moving on with his life. (We are so boringly adult in this thread)

    No of course if i had it my way he would definitely end up single cuz all that baggage should be resolved before ever going out with anyone. I think cuz this is yaoi I never pick for them to be by themselves is cuz it never happens. I think when Haesoo finally writes something he himself is confident in 'm going to feel so satisfied. (Judging by your user name we are probably the same age so yea the boring life of adults indeed lol)

    25 :) You're right, no one ever ends up single in yaoi xD I kind of hope he'll be with Jowoon but... I don't know? I'm cool if he's with Taku, too? This is what I mean, I like all of them, they all have their baggage and everyone is so relatable! but I do hope the baby overcomes his block and just feels okay with himself. Like, proper accepts his flaws and slowly works / or doesn't work on them, but just accepts himself.
