sure the 2nd couple's story had a more compelling plot but even the author admitted that they had no intentions of redeeming Seonwoo and that they were pushed to continue by the producer. mb thats why i personally didn't really feel much in terms of 'character development' from him...bc it was mostly an afterthought lmao like yeah first couple's story felt kinda bland in comparison, but at least the characters were likeable honestly I just feel like Tae-seo deserved more love bc both stories wouldn't be shit wo him if Seonwoo was set up w literally any one else, the second couple would not be getting as much praise as it is rn. that's how hard that XL himbo carries this story
even though it's around a BL couple the story feels mostly BL adjacent. Like yes it's abt the two boys, but author put it best in ch30 in that it's definitely more of a coming of age story. like even tho the side stories concern their relationship, they're more about how they're dealing w the experience than actually depicting it (as one might expect from side chs).
