To me it almost feels like Yoosung is both scared to get involved with Joo Hyuk because of family pressure while simultaneously waiting for Joo-Hyuk to actually pursue him.
Since we are mostly in Joo Hyuks POV it seems like all the longing is coming from him but, unfortunately due to how others have treated him, he evidently feels inferior and undeserving of Yoosung. He doesn’t chase. He doesn’t explicitly say how he feels. He doesn’t put Yoosung in his place. He comes when he is called. He is justified in cutting off the relationship.
Meanwhile all the action is coming from Yoosung. He is used to get what he wants. He is used to people coming after him. He flirts. He calls. He pursues. He plays with him. He baits him and tried to make him jealous so that he will step forward, but he never does. I think the engagement brag was first of all a defense mechanism for rejection and secondly jealous baiting to get him to speak now or lose him.
Neither are handling the relationship the right way. Especially Yoosung. He’s acting like an F boy. I don’t know that I could go as far to say it’s abusive, but I would definitely say he is toxic.
I won’t stop reading though lol the art is good and the language used is so pretty.
