I liked the story. Although Jooin was pretty fucking insufferable, I understood where he was coming from, as I've dealt with a similar situation like him before (assurance, commitment, indecisiveness). Imagine realizing you're gay, immediately do the nasty with a hot guy you're crushing on that you have no established relationship with, then a second guy comes into the picture that clings on to you, how tf would you not go crazy over dealing with emotions you've never faced before, more so that it was bombarded to you in such a short amount of time?
I liked the author's statement about what these three needed to learn. How to love, love without losing theirself, and loving yourself. It was portrayed so realistically, like the lack of communication (which based from the people I've met and the friends of my friends, and stories even farther from that circle that somehow made it's way to me, is more common that you'd think), being weak in certain situations - for example a sensual atmosphere (I've been there, especially when you're in the moment) - or because of the empathy you feel towards that person and what they've went through, the desperation to cling to someone, the willingness to give yourself when you're not even sure if they'll give back the same, and the fear of the outcome of the choices brought to you.
Although there are some parts that gave me the ick, like consent and stuff, it was portrayed somewhat realistically, like it happens more often than you think (the first time Yahwi and Jooin did the nasty, I couldn't blame Yahwi when the atmosphere was sensual and Jooin was very forward while drunk. Things really happen in these sorts of situations, and while I don't approve of it, I can't really blame both of them when they've been put in that predicament, especially when we're naturally driven by primal instincts). It's just the readers who make it seem like it's being normalized when it's not. People take things way too seriously, even when it's fiction. It was handled here better and made the characters, especially Yahwi, feel remorse for what they've done, unlike some other works that brushes it under the rug with just one episode, or sometimes just a few panels then it's like it never existed (I remember reading some works like this, but it's been so long since I've last read them and I can't remember the names right now).
Give it a read. You'll get frustrated a lot of times but the end makes it worth it, and you'll start to understand why the characters made the decisions they did. You'll probably find a thing or two to relate to in your life.
