A quick summary
After the MC's father passes away, the MC begins to struggle with severe memory loss, which leads the ML to bring him into his home for close monitoring. The MC is deeply afraid of the ML hating him, to the point where he believes that if the ML were to hate him, he would end his own life. This fear drives the MC to try desperately to keep his memories intact. However, due to a combination of grief, drugs, and other factors, his mental state deteriorates further. The MC starts forgetting important things like the name of the cat, where he is, why he's staying at the ML's house, and even the fact that the ML has already cleared his debts.
Bc of this the ML feels he has no choice but to keep the MC confined for his own safety, even going as far as chaining him up to prevent any dangerous actions. Despite this, the ML is deeply caring, attending to the MC's needs every day. Feeding him, bathing him, everything.
As the MC's condition worsens, he begins writing the ML's name repeatedly, as if to hold onto the memory, until one day he forgets the ML's appearance entirely. When the ML visits, the MC no longer recognizes him visually, even though he remembers the name. This scene was so sad bc it where the ml started to realized how awful mc conditions was and he couldn't take it.
Since the MC frequently talks about Red Mansion, his parents, a drug addict who nearly killed him, and the ML's brother—but never the ML himself— so the ml decides to take him there. In an attempt to shock the MC into reality, the ML pretends to abandon him at the mansion, telling him it's over.
Devastated, the MC goes to the room where his parents once were, finds an old blanket, and in his despair, uses a knife to slit his wrists. Meanwhile, the ML, having left but consumed by a terrible feeling, rushes back just in time to save the MC's life.
When the MC wakes up the MC has amnesia and only remembers his parents getting sick and him taking over the convenience store, and the first few meeting the ML (before the starts of the story) the ML lies and says that his parents died soon after they got sick and now he lives with him and they're together which is so cute because the ml fear that if the mc remember his condition will get worse. They also moved houses bc ml doesnt want mc to remember red mansion. Ml also has a fear of Sharp things like knife and scissor bc the mc almost died to those so he almost had an panic attack when the mc was looking at it.
BTW the mc doesn't have amnesia. He did for a little bit but he remembered it all. However he never gonna tell the ml about it. Since it show how much the ml love him. They both love each other deeply and live happily.
GURLLL HE A LITTLE HARSH. HE IS SOOO GREEN FLAG THOO LIKE IN THIS SCENE IN THE NOVEL
His brothers had schemed again to take what was his. They gave money to the doctor who abandoned Kim Sung-kyung’s father, telling him to hide deeper. They tried to break Kim Sung-kyung and drive him mad, ultimately aiming to separate him from Chungrim. They used different tactics this time but ended up being no help to Chungrim, as always.
The ml goes to his brother and beat them up. He then confessed how he feel about his brother and about the mc, “I needed someone to be by my side, not the type who thinks money solves everything. Someone who followed my words, did things I liked. Someone who didn’t weigh me against money. That’s what I needed. And that’s why I chose him.” (this line always get me. Like the ml love mc so much)
AND IN THIS SCENE AT THE HOSPITAL
he squeezed Sung-kyung’s index finger tightly, watching as his nail turned white and then red again. He was alive, no doubt.
'When will you wake up?'" He kept pressing Sung-kyung’s fingertips, ensuring blood was circulating well.
