I've said this before got but Hyung definitely did alot of manipulating juju on our MC here that's why everything's twisted. It's like he's in a spell and the narrative is all the people around him dont treat him right or dont want him. So I wouldnt be suprised if Hyung even manipulated MC's recollection every sx encounters with Sunbae and makes it unpleasant. Let's also not forget that he wanted Sunbae "useless" and I'm 100% positive he did something to Sunbae for him to fall on the stairs(He almost admitted it). If that's really the case, he seriously injured him. He couldve died bec of that fall. That gave me chills tbh I cant believe some people here are rooting for a potential murderer and seriously dishing the other guy who is rude and bad at holding Hanjoo.
Sunbae 100% isnt affected of that spell and his POV chapter is already a hint coz he was the one who got interested at MC first and it was him who shut him down (asked Sunbae to be just sxfriends). When he fell, he couldve reached Hanjoo's hand, it's kinda instinct but he even had a moment to think not to grab his hand bec he might not be able to support his weight, fall as well and get hurt. He have been looking for Hanjoo for the entire time he has not seen him. If he just playing and if it's the truth that he is annoying for him why bother? Wouldnt it be better not seeing him around?
When people already start noticing the MC and started talking to him, it looks like the "spell" is weakening and Sunbae is the reason why. It's like his influence on MC's life makes the "spell weak" bec Mc is already having awareness.
l Also, I feel that Hyung and MC's "sx" isnt real and was just also a manipulation. And it looks like the "agressive doorbell ringing" symbolizes something when he opens it would make him escape that "spell" he is in.
Im guessing MC would cutv things off with Sunbae and go full on detective on Hyung to know the truth. It is less likely that he will continue being with Sunbae (or confess or whatever) bec he said he will first empty the hands that he greedily filled. Sunbae here symbolises one of his greed ig.

I think Sunbae is like just a typical jock and "yea sure if you like me then yea" kind of guy. At first he just finds him cute and convenient but his curiosity with Hanjoo got into him more when Hyung get into the picture. The weirdness that is happening when he first met Hanjoo, what people say about Hanjoo, when he first met Hyung (he said he was short and face is just typical and the vibes he get is what people say about Hanjoo), how hyung and Hanjoo acts towards each other when he met hyung again (like he is a different person now than he first met him) all of this flipped a switch on him. He even gave a thought that there is no way he is jealous of Hyung (but it's kinda obvious he is, being bitter that Hanjoo shouldnt do it with him if he is messing with Hyung - staircase scene). It's like he become invested in him that from Hanjoo being just a cute convenient puppy he suddenly decided to protect him from Hyung and keep him away from him. He couldve just stayed away from him. bec it's troublesome and it's creepy. So I think somehow he is stepping ahead. Maybe the arrogance is keeping him in denial, but it's kinda obvious imo

This story ended in chap 76 them getting married (YJ is still preggo). I got teary eyed bec it is CEO Seo's POV and chapters before will show how whipped he is for YJ and how he wanted to give everything to him. Damn I hope side stories would finally show the baby!! So far on chap 77 they are on a honeymoon
The only masterpiece in this story is the line:
"But all of those pent up thoughts and feelings will soon become "their fault"." This line goes for all- family friendship, partners..
I get that the authour is trying to create a plot hence the father's 8 year absence without contact. I mean it's sooo unrealistic well everything here is (fiction duh) but if I disregard common sense here I liked the story bec none of the chars for me is irritating. It's cliche but not too cliche-ish. It's drama but they are not being overly dramatic. The lines were written well; simple words but hits deep.
