Cute and all, but after Yi-Hyeok's confession and that rejection—just no. I'm not pleased at all. It's living up to its title, but the kind of angst that's going between them just isn't my cup of tea. It's clear that Inseo is into him for such a long time, but I hate where this is currently going. I just don't want to read it anymore, I know exactly how it's going to be. I'm outta here!

But art is insanely good 🫶

Un manhwa BL entre dos amics d'infància que recreant una foto de petit* s'acaben fent fwb/f*ck buddies, però en el fons estan enamorats l'un de l'altre i no s'atreveixen a fer el pas per por de perdre l'amistat... Més enllà del gran clixé, la personalitat del seme és fastigosa i desconsiderada, mai fa cas o escolta el que li diu l'uke cosa que et fa plantejar-te els límits del consentiment... La parella secundària, protagonista dels side-stories, fa directament vomitar perquè és una exageració massa bèstia de la dinàmica dels protes. En fi, en la línia habitual: un manhwa molt tòxic farcit d'escenes hot amb unes il·lustracions a color espectacular...

I agree with majority of the reviewers here, the main story between Inseo and Yi-Hyeok is really good but the side story with the friends, Tak & Sanho... Yeah. No. Tak needs to be in f*cking jail or something. Not f*cking anyone

Also, is the boss supposed to be 'dark romance hot' or just straight up creepy coz I'm leaning more towards the latter. Mans has gorgeous eyes but he gives me the heebie-jeebies

Rating this one to mark season 1

One thing remains true - Inseo is beautiful af. Every time he would show up, I would just marvel at his face. I was so happy even though he was being so f*cking, ridiculously stupid. No communication here just pushed me to the edge. I was so annoyed. Super annoyed but his face made up for it.

That boss... I am just sick thinking about him.

That side story... why? I usually look forward to stories about the second couple but this one???!!! Why was it all rape? I kept on thinking, nay, they jest. No one would actually think about writing this and reason to themselves that, yes, romance. It was disgusting and angering to get through.

I also despise how Sunho is just written off by everyone and I am of the very real suspicion that had he shared what he was going through, none of them would have thought to help him. Just narrow it down to him being dumb and moving on. Baby boy needed better friends tbh. These ones hated him.

Love the main couple, Inseo is just really hot & Yi-hyeok cute. The boss-plot is interesting. But Tak & Sanho is just a big no for me, Tak is too creepy and Sanho not really willing at all. Total turn-off.
But nevertheless I’m anxiously waiting for season two. Does anyone know when it’s supposted to be published?

I'm a sucker for good art and this manhwa never disappoints. Though Inseo has such a weird personality, I like how Hyeok handles his situation and more so his train of thought. Over all, a great read for me and perfect to pass time. 👍👍

it was aight. Green flag top? His feelings for the bottom were solid but he did some confusing sh*t. This story could have easily been 30 chapters if they communicated. Also that boss was weird, didn’t like him from the start. Overall basic read, no intense drama just exhausting at times.
