Almost every time he was about to give advice that probably would’ve cleared up their miscommunications and everything, Hongyeon was dragging him away when he barely got a word in, which led everything to getting dragged out.
Logistically, it’s obviously just the author wanting things to go on longer, but character-wise, it dragged on because Hongyeon refused to let Taejun do what he’s good at. His obsessive possessiveness can be sorta cute sometimes but it’s also annoying when he refuses to let him be an individual? Then he goes off avoiding him for days (even if it’s for a surprise) just to start going catatonic when he’s not 1000% available for him.
Of course Taejun is fine with it because their auras are perfectly matched therefore their personalities are too, but from an outside perspective, it is indeed annoying how his only personality trait is “MY TAEJUN MINE MINE MINE NO ONE ELSES IF I COULD LIVE IN HIS SKIN I WOULD HE BETTER BE LOOKING AT ME AT ALL TIMES
Wait wait wait. People are saying Hongyeon is annoying because he doesn't like the fact that Taejun is constantly doing cupid stuff? Y'all. You're the same people who were bitching about how annoying the pink haired coworker was and ya know who was taking up all of Taejun's time? His annoying pink ass. Like Hongyeon wants to spend time with his significant other and Taejun seems to feel the same, but sometimes doesn't have a back bone to tell people no
