Hated this. Not for the interesting toxicity and "dive" in psyche, but the lack of explanation, responsibility, sense.
In others story I get why and how, above human nature, but here... It's toxic and characters kept getting in litteraly ALL directions for no reasons, nor rythme.
The last 5-7 chapters were better, not only cause of the softness, but because some things got more senses (not MADE sense ! Not the same)

This is seriously messed up. What could be the reason behind all this? The only theory I have is that he had a brother who took his own life because Jiwook used to beat him up or something similar. Now, he's trying to get revenge in his own twisted way, even though deep down he seems to have a kind heart—just completely broken and lost.
That's my hypothesis.

In the novel the MC had the ML gangraped when they were in highschool (I think) and the MC lost his memories so the ML is doing this as revenge. The only difference i see so far is that in the novel the ML didn't give a crap about the MC after his gangrape but in the recent chapters of the Manga we can see the ML caring and regretting what he did so I'm hoping it ends better and happier than the novel lmao..

Idk if I misunderstood the plot, but as far I remembered, it was the same in the novel isn't it? T-T Juyeon showed sympathy/care/guilt before he bought Jiwook to his home. Mostly when Jiwook joke about him taking his own life (prolly coz it reminds Juyeon of his hospitalized family).
ML is a black flag and what he did to MC is like many times worse than what the MC did to him. But what he'd been gone through, as an underage, also ain't light either. I think his psycho tendencies is some kind of coping mechanism(?), for the traumatic experience and the state of his mom it resulted in, and also some form of revenge
The thing I'm kinda looking forward is, the extra chapters where they're back to daily scene (the campus, etc) and already had some sort of resolvement. which actually not sure would be adapted into the manhwa or not (I mean, even tho it's not exactly fluff, but it's better than the main story)
Why the hell have they taken that toxic and angsty repetitive turn when all was green and interesting ? It's tiresome, and gets on my nerves every time I'm about to read. And every chapter it makes us believe it's over then "here we go again", what's the idea, the message behind all this ?
Didn't expect this to turn into a story about anxiety and separation anxiety. It hits too close, and it isn't what I wanted with this story.
The problem with dating someone who wants to hide in the closet. I cannot do that at all. I rather be open and free. Not be forced back into a closet just because the guy who wants to date me doesn't want people to know. Fck that! You can stay single for all I care. I'm gonna go do me... (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Mhm, although I understand your pov, I don't think that's the right justification for the plot right now. :p it's one of the reasons that's for sure but I don't think it would automatically lead to that kinda plot and angst. We're used to the "I'm not ready to go out yet" in those stories we love, but here it's... Uuuugh.
Also, I'm like you. Couldn't handle staying hidden, I'm a pretty transparent person and can't really handle lying for saving my life. xD but I would understand the difficulty and choice to make to get out of the closet. :) I'm straight, so I can't really understand what it's like appart my experience from reading queer stories for more thanks half my life.
