I know honorifics exist, but…

It’s a little jarring to read them calling each other “Mr.” When they’re dating.
Didn’t at some point Jaehyuk explicitly tell Yeon-oh to call him by his name since they were supposed to be dating and it would be wired if someone heard him speaking to him so formally? And this was when us was just pretend. You’d think now that they’re actually dating, they would call each other something other than “Mr.”

    I actually find it kind of funny how sometimes Jaehyuk randomly drops the honorifics for a little bit during sex...then he goes back to formally addressing him it's not so evident with the English translation because there's no t-v distinction in modern English but it's very interesting to observe in other translations... I think it's because their relationship is still technically very fresh, still a bit (a lot) awkward and there's a visible distance between the two. Hopefully with the side stories they actually get comfortable enough to act more casual and stop using honorifics with each other
