I know unnecessary scenes have to be cut out to move the story along but the presentation part really was one of my favourite (non-romantic) parts in the novel.

Wooyeon worked really hard on his presentation and pretty much finished it only to discard it all so that Junseong didn’t get his way. He completed the presentation in 2 days with Dohyun’s help of course, but even Garam and Seongyu (after listening to the story) got mad and became emotionally supportive while helping make his presentation.

On the day of the presentation, Wooyeon’s group was asked to present first, and Junseong thought Wooyeon would beg him for the script, but he didn’t so Junseong was going to present himself until he saw Wooyeon go up anyway. He started the presentation without Junseong’s name on the PPT and Junseong tried to argue but the professor told him if he had something to say he had to wait until ALL the presentations were done so he had to just sit there awkwardly in frustration.

When all the presentations were done, the professor immediately calls for Wooyeon in front of everyone- just to tell him his presentation was particularly good. Wooyeon tells him that Dohyun helped and the professor goes on and on about how good Dohyun was as his student lol

In the end Wooyeon showed the professor (in his office) evidence of the text messages and he basically sided with Wooyeon completely. Afterwards when everything was over, and Garam and Seongyu welcomed him back at the club room, he realised that those two sacrificed their two days just to help him with this thing. And realising that he probably wouldn’t have done the same for them if the roles were reversed, was when he broke down crying. (At least that’s how I remember it).

FL looks stunning with black hair. So she deliberately used up all her powers just to show off her black hair in front of Cecil? Because I respect that.

Also Alice seems like a cool person. It’s a pity she died because she’s still somehow the best character in the story. Her husband didn’t deserve her.

lmao what do i do with my life now other than waiting manhwa updates.

I have to say it was waaay too addicting. I’m taking a break now but I was at chapter 250 and could not believe how it only kept getting better. I already liked all the characters but somehow I managed to love them even more.

I think I had the biggest change of heart towards both Sejins. I didn’t pay much attention to Sejin A but reading his story from the beginning and following his (very slow burn) character development in the novel all I can say is that he’s a badass.

As for Sejin B, I found him slightly annoying in the manhwa but now I love him so much. It’s not any single moment but the way he doesn’t seem like he’s thinking about anything on the outside but is actually very observant and emotional on the inside. And also the way he cares for Moondae so much is so sweet to me (same with Sejin A).

I also already really liked Moondae, but I somehow managed to love him more later on. The way he’s smart but the story also shows his thought process so it’s realistic, and the way he can still mess up by overthinking because he’s desperate to survive and complete all his missions with the same members he has now (he cares about them more than he thinks he does).

As for the rest, it will be too long to explain, but basically I just love all the characters way too much now lol. I want to read the rest but also I don’t want it to end. I guess I’m lucky I’ll be a bit busy soon so I can take my time.

Honestly that wasn’t so predictable for me but also predictable. I feel like old competition manga likes to show bottom tier to first place stories but that doesn’t really happen recently, because realistically it’s impossible to close the gap on years of experience and pure talent.

That’s why I honestly thought Tokise would get 2nd place, maybe even 3rd (though Takezou would miss his chance to symbolically ‘defeat’ Meiryou).

I guess Satowa’s wish during her first appearance chapter came true lol (she said she would join a run down koto club and bring them to first place in nationals to make headlines). I also love how Chika hugged Takezou when his gf was right next to him xD

I do feel terrible for Meiryou and Ichiei though. But the top 4 still get to do the performance, and they still got perfect scores.

Whenever I read other manhwa, the emperor husband is always busy with paperwork 24/7 sacrificing food and sleep over proper work life balance and giving the FL attention (until they get repossessed).

After reading this manhwa, now I know why.

I like how on the dummy chapter it literally explains why there are dummy chapters and where to read the real chapters, yet there are people who still don’t know why there are dummy chapters and where to read the real chapters.

There are also apparently some people who are okay with aggregate websites using bots to snipe scanlations so they can profit off the original author and fan translators who are working for free because ‘we’re all doing illegal stuff anyway’.

Reading this manga on the scanlator’s preferred website is a minor inconvenience.

I think there is no right or wrong way to navigate this situation. Some people would prefer to have the right to out themselves, some people would prefer not to be kept in the dark. Chae Heon and Jeongyoon’s sister decided the best thing for him is to keep him in the dark. Partly because they’re overprotective of him. Partly because they want to give him that right.

I think what Chae Heon said about not wanting Jeongyoon to be uncomfortable about inviting him over, sums up their decision. It’s inevitable that Jeongyoon’s relationship with his family will shift if they bring it up, whether or not they support him. Maybe one day Chae Heon and Jeongyoon will break up, and he might meet with other guys in the future. I think Jeongyoon’s family doesn’t want him to be conscious of them over things like that, so they want to wait until he’s ready to tell them. After all, he is only moving in with a friend, on the surface. And in the event of a breakup, he could comfortably return to his family knowing they won’t ask him questions. Even if Jeongyoon’s family are comfortable about his sexuality, it doesn’t mean Jeongyoon is comfortable about them knowing. I think it’s important to Jeongyoon’s family that he’s comfortable around them in his own home.

And to be honest, I think if you’re close enough as family, you would know what your sibling would want. Knowing Jeongyoon’s character, when he finds out later about them knowing all along, he would probably beat himself up for not realising it sooner than he would get mad at Chae Heon and his family.

This is so cute

Okay before everyone gets excited this is a friendly reminder that the characters that are coming next chapter are the club president and Minjeong, NOT Taegyeom. There is no cameo from the main characters (at least for now).

The former club president is the one who convinced Taegyeom to join the club to attract more members. Minjeong is the woman who let Dohyun leave his shift during the university festival, because she noticed he couldn’t concentrate (he was worried about the student he was tutoring that day).
