I haven’t started season one yet, but I just have to say that I hope they lighten the vibe in the manhwa because he’s basically in an abusive relationship in the novel. I feel so bad for the MC. He may be a bonehead, but he doesn’t deserve the treatment he’s getting from the ML.

The ML is just… verbally abusive. After finding out about the baby, he tells him that he won’t let the MC have the baby, and forces him to go back to the city and stay at ML’s apartment. From that point on, the ML is pretty much cold to the MC and speaks harshly to him constantly because he’s sexually frustrated, but too prideful to admit his feelings. The MC spends the rest of the novel with his head down, flinching and apologizing during every scene with the ML. He goes from having a goofy, happy-go-lucky personality to acting like an abuse victim/abused puppy. The only time the MC is slightly happy is when he’s eating or the very few times the ML forces himself to be gentle with him. The tone doesn’t change until like two chapters before the end when the ML finally admits his feelings and fucks the MC again.
Because of the manhwa panels I’ve seen, I just expected the novel to be very goofy and lighthearted, but it doesn’t read that way, IMO. Yes, the MC still has his quirky personality, but the overall tone isn’t similar to the manhwa. It reads more serious with a few comedic moments sprinkled in throughout (but mainly in the beginning and end chapters). That’s why I said, I hope they lighten up the vibe, but I think they will.

After the MC tells the ML he’s pregnant, the ML is secretly happy because he thinks that it will force the MC to be by his side. He’d been slowly losing his mind since having sex with the MC, then the MC disappeared, and his brother kind of led the ML to believe the MC was pregnant by a woman, which made him go even crazier. He’d finally calmed down some with the baby news, but the MC grabbed the consent form for him to sign, which gave custody to MC and let’s ML off the hook for all things concerning the baby. The MC is under the impression that the ML wants absolutely nothing to do with children and marriage, especially with him, so… Anyway, this pisses the ML off, and he tells him that he’d never give up parental rights or custody, and that he’ll raise it himself. The MC is super sad and asks what he needs to do raise the baby, but the ML refuses to tell him, so for practically the rest of the novel, the MC is stuck in the ML’s apartment trying to figure out what he needs to do to get custody. The ML wants the MC to suggest raising the kid together as a couple, but the MC would never do that considering their relationship and how he thinks the ML feels about him. The ML refuses to suggest it because he’s too prideful and he believes that it’s the MC who likes him, not the other way around.

Dear god that really put to waste the whole fun vibe of the manhwa so far, I thought this would already be the kick he needs to realize he’s the one that likes mc and confess and properly date but instead he pulls all that shit? ToT especially when he knows Mc likes him, isn’t it weird to him that mc suggests having the baby himself and staying away from him? Like what reason have you given mc for HIM to suggest being a couple and being together, he’s the one who’s been repeatedly confessing and you’re the one that hasn’t been answering, this is bs ToT

I scanned the raws, and the mind break here is next level. I can’t help but appreciate it, tbh. In most manhwa, you would see the mc getting over a gang rape by the next chapter. Not sure what happened to the childhood friend, though. Maybe I was scrolling too fast, but he disappeared after he found the mc and his brother with those guys towards the end.
Edit: Wait, I looked again. I think the childhood friend died in that warehouse fire. :( And I think the crazy ml sent the younger brother overseas? I also missed the fact that the ml kept the mc confined to that hospital for several months in a room without a window, so he couldn’t even keep track of time. That’s what broke his mind further.
Edit 2: Okay, looked once more, and the childhood friend is alive? He’s shown a video of the friend (with a ponytail now?) in a hospital watching over a body he thinks is the mc? I think he believes that the warehouse fire put the mc in a coma, and he sits by that bedside waiting for him to wake up? Idk how he could mistake the person in the hospital bed for the mc, though. Oh, and the brother is in school overseas getting everything paid for by the crazy ml, and he thinks that the mc died in the fire and blames himself. The mc tries to leave the ml when he finds this out, but he’s developed such severe anxiety by this point that when he leaves the ml’s home, he pretty much has a breakdown. He can’t handle being around crowds of people and pretty much views the ml’s place as his safe space, so he runs back to the ml where he’s taken to the bedroom, and we see that his mind has been completely broken.
I can’t believe you dumbasses really think the MC is going to betray the ML for money. It’s like you idiots haven’t been paying attention at all.
Lmfao exactly. There's no way he's gonna betray the ML. He just scammed the brother to get alot of money haha. It's the brother's fault for thinking he could buy him like that haha. He's probably gonna give fake or useless info lmao. The MC is the best, I love him.
