Ofcourse! Well, it depends as to what you consider by the actual " plot ", like, it you're thinking of the highschool life (the I'm-learning-to-love-myself-by-socialising-and-occasionally-beating-up-my-bullies) then yes, it has strayed far off from that and is an entirely different story. But if you're considering the gangs, Charles choi shit as the plot, then no, the story has rather chosen to go in depth with those plots and explore it (mostly because they were doing well)
Though some people may have complains as to how the story is paced, since it's your typical backstory-fight-fightagain-fight-haidefeatedyou-loluthought-finallydefeatedu-yeabutdidu-trainingarc-friendship-emotionalshit-alilinfoontheplot-randomfocusononecharacter-backstory and repeat
But it's just the PTJ company milking lookism out cuz god damn are the fans (us) eating it up everytime. Now it's completely up to you whether you're gonna sit through all those hundred chapters and read them or not, but if you do, just read them with a light heart and without taking it seriously lmao
Plus points? Fight scenes are epic andd more male hot characters
(P.s. we got vin jin's backstory!! )
non-romance action manhwas w some fruity straight bros. yk male characters who have some weird sexual tension but they claim they're straight.
