I have been rereading this over and over since 2019. Its my favourite shounen ai, from the art style to the plot its just beautiful. Some people seem to forget that stories like this are supposed to invoke sad and negative emotions, and that stories aren’t always supposed to have everything resolved in them with angels for characters. If they did then they wouldn’t really be realistic. Rating the story down because it made you cry or because you didnt like that there were difficult scenes doesnt make sense. If thats your reason for rating it low dont bother to write a review in the first place and go and read some confirmed fluff. Ive cried over and over from this story myself. Yes the characters are complicated, even criminal, their personalities twisted, a guy bullying the buy he likes or not knowing how to approach a difficult situation happening to someone he cares about. Yes there is sexual assault. There are people like that, and those are real experiences that people go through. And twisted situations with twisted people do happen. The story gets more dark as you learn more about the characters, which is why the beginning is fluffy because you know nothing about them yet. This story is supposed to be complicated and angsty. Thus the only warning i would give is that if you dont like angst or those are triggering topics then dont read this! Otherwise read this with an open mind because the characters and their approaches to relationships are interesting.

Am i the only one that finds seowoo the older one a bit creepy and obsessive, bit uncomfortable

I don’t think he’s being obsessive, rather he’s upset that his own brother is lying to him while knowing his feelings so it’s like he’s showing thats he’s unwilling to let go this time (since previously he’s always given up or let Jaewoo be him in his stead) so I think its more to do with his determination to not give up this time. If Ohn truly chooses Jaewoo even after finding out that they’ve swapped identities Im sure Seowoo would give up

Yeah of course him being upset is understandable but im not talking about his actions in relation to his brother. He watches Ohn all the time, its called stalking. His determination is obsessive. While Ohn is sleeping grabbing on to him and getting all excited made me really uncomfortable. Neither of them actually deserve Ohn though
I think everyone is being way too harsh on that girl. Shes misguided, she didnt have parents or anywhere she felt she belonged and shes grown up in a very conservative place, she isnt going to understand just like that and is using her own experiences to make sense of things bc shes only looking internally right now. At least she knows she did smth wrong but im sure her opinion will change with time, i dont think its fair to just start calling her a bitch because she doesnt know any better
Yeah I think so too. I think she's wrong for comparing her experiences with the guys' and obviously also for the whole dating site thing. But she's a neglected child with very little understanding of the world. She said herself she's been doing better since she moved to the village, I think there is much for her to learn still
Didn't she go to college in Seoul? She can't learn anything about open mind in there?
Well if her friend cycle was that limited, it can be. Even an introvert with small number of friend wouldn't be that closed minded. Just showing what kind of a person she is.
