from being a long time reader of yaoi, i know that love is everything in this genre to the point that the psycho, obsessive leads are even heartily accepted by the main characters in the end ("my love is a murderer? doesn't matter, at least he loves me" kinda mindset) and clearly, the same logic applies here. but *personally*, i just feel a tiny bit sad bc this manga could have subverted that. everyone knows that in real life, too much love and obsession doesn't bode well especially for the person on the receiving end, and that could have been the end message for this one. i feel like maybe there was a tiny buildup to it, that one time when chiwoo kept insisting that he had to home bc jin cooked, and that could have been sustained. especially with jin willing to step aside because chiwoo loves hwan. like, i know yaoi mangas/manhwas/webtoons are usually meant to be taken as unserious and guilty pleasures, but idk... this just could have been more.
