This is now the second time that MC bro has told Heewon the cold hard facts about his misplaced romantic expressions.
It always was the case that Heewon's one sided feelings for the brother wasn't love. It was a case of having a crush at first sight, mistaken belief about the identity of his fated lover + internalised shame after learning that Hangyul who was still attending middle school at the time was his actual fated lover.

I really hope this puts the nail in the coffin of their ship, it was never going to sail. Not when there's still a 1% chance that Heewon finally comes out on top over eunshit and reclaims his and Hangyul's future by reconnecting their thread

    the number one red flag is the fact that Hangyul was in middle school, barely even a teen, when the two were fated to be lovers and is still trying to cling to that. like no that's creepy

    Yeah but that's only the realisation. He didn't have romantic or sexual feelings for a minor. I think he just internalised the age gap to the extent of projecting would be romantic notions on the older brother instead.

    doesn't make it right though. that's borderline pedophilic, and the author is trying to work around it (in the sense that the gangster isn't a pedophile) but is struggling

And those two are really not giving 2nd couple material, idk what yall are seeing.

This such a good story with a refreshing take on age gap romance. It would make a great kdrama too someday

Do we think the journalist friend also likes MC romantically? He looked a bit disappointed when he was like yeah "one time thing" also who suggests wanking a friend off unless they're a closet homo w a big crush ? Personally ,i hope there's no second ML in this story.

    Yoohan May 25, 2025 9:44 pm

    Definitely

    tebbysweet May 25, 2025 9:46 pm

    hes definitely not going to be a second ML, eunsan didnt even enjoy what they did and stopped because it didnt feel good. hes definitely got unresolved feelings for eunsan though so thatll be sad to see him get turned down. good for the plot though, it gives ian a reason to be jealous even though its clear eunsan is never gonna look twice at this guy.

    I dont think so,friend hasnt made but mc has been divorced for a while now. I think he's resolved any feelings he had.

    i dont think hes resolved them, he just backed off bc eunsan didnt enjoy "being with" a guy and didnt want to do anything else, even when he got divorced he still didnt make a move bc eunsan made it clear he wasnt into it. i think ian being back though and seeing eunsan get involved with ian, a guy, is going to stir it back up though. he only backed off bc eunsan didnt think he was into guys after what they did and he wanted to stay friends. unfortunately i think eunsan being into ian is going to make his friend think he might have a chance, and hes just gonna get his heart broken.

I literally binge read this . Appreciate how character driven the story was, drama is driven by realistic relationship dynamics not shock value and genre tropes that are all too common in bl (no shade) idk the last time i read a story , especially bl , with character's that were flawed and toxic in a relatable way. 5/5 although I bc think it could've ended at s1 maybe 4.5/5 tbh

Jane May 24, 2025 4:02 pm

4/5 for hot butch dom
1/5 for story, bc it was a 2 pack of assssss

Jane May 17, 2025 1:47 pm

I loved it, lowkey reminded me of Dumplings (the movie)

Jane May 16, 2025 11:33 pm

Wouldn't be surprised if MC goes limp with the shock wtf

Jane May 10, 2025 1:06 pm

MC managed going no contact for a year but suddenly has weak resolve and can't resist the urge give in?

Jane May 6, 2025 9:04 pm

A bit mad to ask your much younger situationship from a rural province to abandon all they've ever known and head off to the big city with you.
