There's a Sexual Assault scene. A lot of people don't want to mention this because its the kind of thing that scares away readers but it needs to be said.
It does happen between the main couple. The assaulter is Jinhyeong. From what I remember it's not super graphic and it ends very quickly. It ends because Uyun grabs Jinhyeong's dick and proceeds to scold him harshly.
The scene is extremely nuanced and does treat the moment fairly seriously (there's still a humorous element after Uyun grabs Jinhyeong's dick to scold him but even then the actual assault itself is never a part of the joke). I don't want to go into the reasons why it happens because it kind of spoils the entire first arc of the series.
I'm not going to argue whether it was handled well or not but I do think it was, in some ways, realistic (especially with how it happened). I think it mightve been a little too lenient with Jinhyeong (he never tops after this) but as you go on its hard to hate him. I think it's a very nuanced take on how assault isnt always something done by people with bad intentions. Sometimes it's done by people you love and trust and who might love you but for whatever reason also resent and wish to hurt you.
It's still a good story in my opinion. Jinhyeong is still a character I like and find very interesting but he's very complicated and did something pretty awful.
Please read at your own risk.
