Ren is not in a good situation and I think meeting and getting a crush on Haruto had the unitway need side of effect of making Ren really think about just how unfair the situation he’s in is and how unhappy he is. It seems to me as if he was living willfully ignoring fact that his life could, or well really should, be better. It was a painful truth he was able to mostly ignore until Haruto.
As for Haruto, he really isn’t handling things well and I can’t say that I blame him. There’s a hard limit to what Haruto can actually do for Ren and it seems as if he’s wary of doing anything that could make the situation worse. Being so blunt and upfront about it was not the correct way to go.
He wants to be a responsible and mature adult but in trying to do that he ended up turning away Ren when he really needed him.

We as an audience have seen Sangwoo as what was probably his worst [when Bum slit his wrists] and we saw how quickly he switched emotions and how he eventually regressed to a childlike and vulnerable state but you know who hasn’t seen Sangwoo like that yet? Bum.
The only time Sangwoo freaked out like that Bum was unconscious and I’m really curious as to how Bum would react to seeing Sangwoo like that. To him Sangwoo has always been someone who’s very in control of himself and the situation so seeing Sangwoo as well, sort of helpless as he was when Bum almost killed himself probably would confuse the Hell out of him.
I know this isn’t very related to what’s currently going on but it’s a thought I had and something I genuinely would like to see happen in the future.

This is another chapter that confirms that Sangwoo likes taking Bum places with him. He enjoys being seen with him and I choose to interpret this as Sangwoo sort of showing Bum off in a “this is mine,” kind of way.
I also think to some extent Sangwoo is confused as to why Bum is still able to smile in his company. I don’t think he understands why Bum seems to be willingly staying with him at this point. Sangwoo obviously has some trust issues and there’s been many times where he’s acted violently towards Bum to sort of “test” their relationship and so far Bum has passed all those tests but Sangwoo is still uneasy. He’s afraid of rejection, that’s what I think.
I think it’s been a while since Sangwoo has genuinely enjoyed someone’s company. He doesn’t really “like” people and has friends only to appear normal. When he’s with Bum he seems to genuinely enjoy himself. He obviously finds Bum’s reactions to things entertaining which is why he pokes, prods, and teases him so often.
He’s gotten used to having Bum around and is now comfortable enough to begin integrating him into his daily life. At this point Sangwoo probably at least subconsciously assumes that Bum is going to stay with him until one or both of them dies.
Something is obviously going to happen in the upcoming chapters and I’m 90% sure it’ll involve Bum’s uncle and I’m 80% sure that it’s going to cause Sangwoo to behave violently and erratically.

I know that these last two chapters were supposed to be “breather” chapters but with Bum and Sangwoo’s relationship being what it is I just can’t relax.
Every time Sangwoo and Bum do “normal couple” activities I always feel like Sangwoo has some other ulterior motive or as if he’s just waiting for Bum to screw something up so he can get angry.
I also feel as if over the entirety of the story thus far Sangwoo’s mental state has been more or less deteriorating and he’s become more unstable. I’m sure this will come to its natural conclusion eventually and I’m on edge.
There’s a slowly mounting tension in these chapters. The longer the peaceful period lasts the more sure I become that Koogi is about to drop some intense shit in these upcoming chapters.

Man, a lot of people here are being really hard on Hyesung for his reaction and the way he treats Dojin.
You guys need to remember how young Hyesung is. He’s like nineteen. He’s barely even an adult and suddenly he finds out that he’s pregant with a baby he doesn’t want and the father is a guy he doesn’t love. His reaction is understandable. Childbirth and pregnancy in general is painful and often times scary.
Also, he does not currently love or even really like Dojin and he makes sure Dojin knows that. It’s not like he’s sucking up to Dojin in order to get his money. He’s very transparent about wanting money and honestly, Dojin doesn’t have to indulge him. He spoils Hyesung of his own free will. It’s not something Hyesung is forcing him to do.
Hyesung is also probably feeling controlled by Dojin. He’s a person who doesn’t like feeling controlled and Dojin is very controlling and possessive even though they are not in any sort of romantic relationship. Hell, Dojin fucking raped and knitted him for even trying to leave.
Hyesung is kind of stuck in a shitty situation and he’s trying to make the best of it.

That dirty dude knew exactly what he was doing. He secured himself a sweet honey with a lot of money and a cute ass to boot.
He strikes me as quite a wily and interesting character. I can’t wait to see more of this couple!
what he is doing is like, my dream- i wish i could find a sweet honey with a lot of money and a cute ass to boot (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
