The ML is unlikeable but Overall a good story

I got to say.. overall its a good read and realistic story. I think ppl didn't like it bc of forced twist of amnesia but from the very beginning Minyul has been possessive.

Even in the beginning chapters he would get like 57 missed calls from Minyul.. I am not sure if anyone has dealed with this before. But personally, its suffocating and draining to be with anyone who expects you to answer their calls ALL THE TIME. I have a friend that calls me EVERY DAY.. trust its not as romantic as manga makes it seem. For awhile I had actual anxiety looking at my phone bc I was so tired of my friend calling every day.

So there was clear signs of a toxic relationship in the beginning, but bc Minyul is handsome and has trauma it seems to offset the readers expectations. However, it really is not that rosy in real life. Minyul also knowingly allows Jungsoo to be in a dangerous pyramid scheme to 1)Spend time with him 2) cripple him financially. I hope other readers see this too.

Jungsoo is not the most likeable character, hes indecisive and doesn't have any "strong" qualities that many leads have, but he is realistic. The pressure from getting into college is really daunting, its easy to fall for these schemes and have low self esteem. Just going job hunting is super stressful.

To conclude, I really liked this story. The drawings were great, plot was exciting and I felt the suspense from all the characters.

    I know the feeling. Literal anxiety looking at the phone lol I still respect him as a friend with his accomplishments, but his lack of respect for my boundaries is putting me off.
