This is kinda out of topic but it felt like the author's Art style was changing all the time, and the transition between scenes/settings was a bit lacking i termes of smoothness.
I liked that the author tried to add more color into their story but it also felt like the color palette failed to communicate the feeling behind many of the scenes. I felt like the Black and white thing suited the author's art style better but that's just my opinion...
I love the second couple way more than the first but it feels like the way their story could've been in a much more original way. Ik the author can do it, i just don't knox why the second part of the manwha didn't deliver as much as it could have.

I stopped reading such a long time ago and came back to see if Taku got the justice he deserve IMO but omg I'm still sad they ended up together, after all that hurt and manipulation Haesoo picked the wrong partner for a long term relationship.
I've seen people like that IRL and they never are good to their lovers for long.
Anyway Taku all day long

I've always commented under this manhwa saying everyone needs to stay alone and get therapy and heal.
Now since we didn't have that option as an audience and we instead had either a taku n Haesoo or Joowon n Haesoo pairing, I think it's HELLA clear which would be the less toxic one for our protagonist on the long run.
But that's just my opinion.
Joowon only looks good n is good at sex, aside from that all he offers as a character is hurt n toxicity. Yikes

first of joowon: joowon did not manipulate him. he did things with better intentions than both haesoo and taku.
second of all: taku is the most manipulative character in this story which you choose to overlook - http://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/9517513/

you should just reread this story since i think you dont really understand joowon's character and his growth or his relationship with haesoo.
gardenfairy explains it well: http://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/10526356/

what a bad take lol
what did you genuinely understand about love or hate ??
taku deserved fully what he got after saying he wanted to be used, and also manipulating haesoo and taking advantage of him and feeding off of haesoo's unhappiness. he also never grows from his nasty selfish self unlike joowon either. joowon who made genuine mistakes out of love and desperacy. while taku literally just wanted to play with haesoo. "wrong partner" my ass

Y'all I literally said less toxic ON THE LONG RUN. I told y'all that I think all of 'em need healing, I think nun is ready for a relationship as of now, they need to work on themselves.
But aside from that, I still think that Taku would be a better choice than Joowon, Joowon has had years and he truly messed Haesoo up, I don't see a guy like him being a good long term partner cause I've literally seen what he's done through the years. Taku is just a threat to him, might take the person he takes for granted, is all.
Again, this my opinion, I'll repeat that again I guess.

Taku isn't less toxic in the long run when he's a dipshit telling haesoo that he hopes he's hurt, that he wants him to feel guilty, etc. etc. joowon literally had the most growth in this manhwa, while taku just regressed more and more becoming a selfish prick. while joowon literally gave up EVERYTHING for haesoo? his relationship with his dad, his drama and compromised his whole career to protect haesoo.

also, "this is my opinion"
cool maybe if you could actually support your opinion with evidence from the story :D
you literally dont even seem understand the conflict between joowon and haesoo at all and want to pin the blame all on joowon, when haesoo is equal in the blame. and it all goes back to their taboo as ex-step brothers and how their parents treated them and their relationship.
like WHY DO YOU THINK have they've been doing that for 10 years? did you once ask yourself that while reading this lol.
Mathew hella abusive and crazy.
HELL TO THE NO
