The hate uke is getting is so unjustified. I almost didn't read the story because of how much people trash on the uke. But now that I have, I see it's either people who dropped the series too soon or just did not understand it's maturity who leave those comments.
Contrary to popular opinion I actually fairly like uke. He has strong resolve, he may seem weak but contrary is the truth. He could have made really stupid decisions and sleep with his boss when being made advances at, yet he didn't (and he was already broken up with his ex at that point). He has flaws, but that only shows that he is written human.
His reasons for breakup are clear and rational. The ex didn't do anything excessively wrong (though the homophobic slip up was hurtful) but it is still valid to break up over feeling hurt, insecure, or unequally loved in a relationship (regardless of what's the truth). Surely he could have communicated with his ex, but so could have the ex. Plus the ex's pov chapters also show that they were both equally responsible for how the relationship ended.
So all together I don't really understand why people hate on the uke. I am pretty confident in saying that uke gives no reasons for such enormous hate.
The only thing I wasn't a fan of was how he fell for his boss who treated him badly for the most of the time. But then, the uke was able to walk off from that relationship. And during the boss' redemption moment the uke wasn't gonna accept him back easily.
To sum it up "Everyone loves in different ways. That's why both partners need to put in effort to make their relationship work. To understand each other. Because . . . that's what makes someone truly happy" (Jeonghan, ch.50)
meaningful chapters: 10-12, 21, 37-38, 42
