apwepuee's manga / #love triangle(10)

compulsive lying is an inherited and contagious disease on this manhwa

i dropped this when it was still ongoing bc i couldn't stand the mc, but since i couldn't remember the plot anymore i decided to give this a second chance. now instead of just the protagonist, i despised almost every character (there are hardly any likeable ones) and trying to finish this felt like going through hell and back by how boring and irritating it was. i should have listened to my past self.

ch. 24 king of home cooking sucked but this one might actually cook (imma kill myself)

i found the story interesting at the start, but it eventually became like another one of those melodramatic k-dramas where i stop taking it seriously midway. in this case, that moment was when chisoo's personality took a complete 180 for no apparent reason. it was good that the two main characters split up after everything that happened, but i couldn't care about their ending. jungkwon and kangjin had more chemistry with the other characters than with each other, and they're both very... complicated. people are throwing a lot of shit at jungkwon, but personally, kangjin is the shallowest character among all of them. his motivations revolve around having daddy issues and acting recklessly for the sake of love, with literally no external factors being affected by the terrible decisions he makes (seriously, it didn't even look like this guy attempted suicide at the start) despite being involved with the alleged most dangerous man among the gangsters in the city or something. i just couldn't like him at all.

the main couple sucks and the story is too messy to follow.

writing was compelling at first but not worth reading until 3rd volume. i wouldn't be impressed if this turned into a victim to abuser pipeline by the way aya was becoming ngl.

ch. 36 alr im done another garbage

supposedly older protagonist who is naively immature for his age and concerningly dumb to be a competent investigator and, oh of course, becomes a victim of sexual assault. nothing interesting about the plot.
