This shit is so ass
Not adding a spoiler warning because I feel like there’s nothing to spoil. Literally nothing fucking happens.
Very predictable first of all. You can already tell that the story is gonna have a hugeeeee miscommunication (bigger one than they alr have), uke is mad at seme, semes “secretly” liked uke all along, then the story turns into more plotless porn. And yes, I say MORE plotless porn because this shit has the storyline of a god damn saltine cracker.
I reallyyyy wanted to like this. The idea of the ukes secret identity, but not really secret because the seme simply forgot, was really interesting!!! It could’ve lead to a muchhhh more intriguing story with UNDERSTANDABLE crash outs / betrayals. But no. That whole plot line was dropped within the first few chapters. And for what??? More sex?????
The art is ok, definitely have seen better, and the characters are one demential. Even if you read this with the intention of having a wank and not for the plot, this isn’t even good fucking porn.
Maybe, MAYBE, I’ll let this marinate and give it some time for some actual story advancements or art style improvements. Until then however, this shit is not being touched again
It's a MANHWA. Even worse, it's a college MANHWA. Of course it's gonna be trash
I’ve been reading since about chapter 5/6 was posted and was a littleeeee sketched out with the beginning and the SA(?) part but I’m glad a stuck it out.
The art? Chefs kiss. And, better than a lot of modern yaoi/bl now.
The story? The right amount of cliche, drama, and comedy.
The characters? Sooo refreshing!! I’m SO sick of the “beefy abusive alpha male x crybaby small twink” in bl now!!!! I want to see HUNKS going at each other. Sure, ML is definitely larger/stronger than MC, but they’re both tall, masculine, and have meat on their bones. Something that’s RARE in yaoi now. Not only that, but the characters are so likable, and relatable! MC’s anxiety being part of his character and visible (physically and mentally taking a toll on him) while not portraying it poorly or undermining it is amazing!! ML being supportive and worried without babying him??? LOVE IT!!! We really need to stop infantilizing bottoms/ukes in queer media and make them feel and look like real adult men. Because that’s exactly what they’re supposed to be.
Also, these recent chapters are soooo good. I love love love mutual pining (although I’m not too sure that the MC realizes his own feelings yet). I need these two to just sit down and talk about their feelings. Like ML’s feelings being so obvious and pure while MC acknowledges it and talks about spending the rest of his life with ML??? UGHHHH SO FREAKING GOOD
Anyways, I’m not sure what the update schedule is (even though I’m pretty sure there’s not really one) but I need more NOW. I’ve been checking every time I open my phone. I consume ts like it’s crack. Can’t wait for more!!!

I’M LIVINGGGGGG FOR THE SLOWBURN.
Was this worth 30 something chapters of waiting?
Yes. Absolutely yes.
I came across this manhwa while lurking waiting for new Unsleep chapters—which by the way, if you aren’t reading Unsleep already, let me PUT YOU ON—and holy shit was I pleasantly surprised.
This is amazing. Reading this chapter by chapter was like slowly ascending to heaven. Like an ice cold sip of water on a hot and humid day. Like getting an acceptance letter to an Ivy League school. Like hearing a flute play melodically whilst gazing upon the horizon.
My point is, this shit is AMAZINGGGGGG.
The way ML is so interested in MC is very refreshing, as well as the built up tension. I feel like I’m soooo sick of starting off manga/manhwa with smut. I want some feelingsssss. Also breaking the stereotype of “nonchalant top x submissive bottom” is literally a breath of fresh air. GET YOU A MAN THAT WILL WORSHIP YOU THE WAY JUNGWOO WORSHIPS JIWON.
ALSO THE “Do you think you could cry a bit more for me?” LINE???? I SCREAMED. I ACTUALLY SCREAMED.
The art is super cute and I really like the character design, as well as their personalities!
This is one of the only manhwa—besides Unsleep of course—that I am currently ENJOYING reading. I live for these characters, and I can’t wait for more updates!!!!
i think bro really likes this one
