Yes this is probably going to end sadly and the story has a certain melancholy to it, but I couldn’t help but chuckle when the Dude thinks he’s outsmarting the prince and feels super conniving. Like „hehe he’s showing me this super secret path that conveniently fits perfectly into my plans, clearly he has no idea hehe“ ……. Helloooooo please wake up my guy haha

Can we have a single story where they haven’t met somewhere before? Why can’t we just have a setting where two adults meet and start things off and not this stupid “we met as children” or “I saw him before” bs sorry this story is nice so far but I am SO fed up with that trope

It's /the worst/. I imagine a lot of authors do it because it's easier than trying to build or show real chemistry between two total strangers, but god damn is it lazy story telling. I'm still enjoying the story personally but I would have liked it so much better if they really had met for the first time in the story's present. (':

Yeah I also still enjoy it. And yeah it is lazy Storytelling or this wird obsession with destiny I see in a lot Korean stories. And I am soooooo tired of it. It makes the world feel smaller as well and unnatural because what are the chances of people meeting as children (talking about other stories now) and then meeting again as “strangers” Years later? Not very high especially not in big cities like seoul or in this case in America and here it is even west coast and east coast -.-

Okay so trying to make the second “couple” a thing just doesn’t work here, especially not in one chapter. I think the author could have had the cake and eaten it too if the dude didn’t commit some of the worst atrocities. The story could have mostly functioned if he had “just” been a bully, but no he has to bully, assault, sa and even film the victim and have zero remorse/ is still actively pursuing him for no real established reason besides maybe trauma?? Or some weird power fantasy?? Idk in any case it’s weird to write such a character and then try to couple him with the most chill and nice characters in the story.
I feel like I read a different story compared to the comments. Our cute little Mc acted super weird towards the ml. Imagine a guy comes up to you and is clearly super into you even though you have no memory of ever meeting him. The Mc is sweet but he is absolutely hyper fixated on someone he talked to exactly one time. To the point that he went to the same college and club to meet him again. I find it a lot weirder why the ML is suddenly into him though? We have seen them barely interact on a surface level and now he went “oh wait actually he is totally different to aaaall the other people who were interested in me”
Sorry the artstyle is great but the story is barely reaching the level of fan fictions.
10000000000% agree
Nailed it. You really have to turn off your brain when reading this
