Thank you for this. There was major angst in today’s chapter but it had to happen sooner or later. Jaehyuk is all in with how he feels for Garam, however, Garam is still cautious with his emotions given his past hurt and how him and Jaehyuk’s “relationship” began. Jaehyuk wants to be lovey-dovey, and sweet, and all, but Garam may not be ready for that.
Yeah this is bound to happen. I think both their sides are valid. It's just that Jaehyuk is misunderstanding things from his side (about Garam having strong feelings for his ex and questioning if Garam even likes him) and Garam needs to clear it up.
Yes, 100% agree. They need to properly communicate with each other!
Thank you for the spoilers I had it all wrong from just the panels lol I thought Jaehyuk was super tired and sleeping bad because of Garam disgusyin food and he couldn't tell him the truth haha. Then I figured he was jealous of the ex and he finally confronted Garam about it. I am kinda disappointed he didn't tell him how he felt and only blamed Garam without explaining anything :((
Thing is, Jaehyuk has been expressing to Garam how he’s felt for some time now. I think it was back in chapter 61 when he told Garam that he wanted more from their relationship than just sex, that his feelings for him were real. This came after he was stealing kisses from Garam in his sleep (or so he thought). Then in the first chapter of the new season, after Garam pulls him in for a kiss, he asks Garam if this means he accepts his feelings for him. I feel Jaehyuk is ready for a real relationship with Garam, but they obviously have issues to work through. Garam has to reconcile his past relationship and the resulting emotional scars with the wall he’s put up between himself and Jaehyuk.
Yep. Sounds about right. I get that. But there also the difference in their character we should consider. One is very extroverted and exuberant while Garam is the total opposite. Even if Garam was head over toe into Jaehuyk, I still don't expect him to become all lovey dovey and clingy. He just doesn't give that vibe. He's cautious and kinda serious. That's how he is in his daily life with his college duties, work and even his family. Jaehuyk is insecure and rightfully so this time, but he also should not expect Garam to become just like him and deny his own personality
I agree 100%. They both have some work to do to make their relationship work. They have to communicate better and understand where each other is coming from. It’ll take time because as you say, their personalities are opposite to each other, Garam is clearly more guarded with his emotions while Jaehuyk is more open. I’m fascinated by their development and hope they can communicate clearly how they feel and what they want.
There's a short flashback of Garam and his ex in this chapter where Garam was kissing him and saying, "I like you, really," so Jaehyuk wouldn't be wrong to think that Garam was different and more expressive about his feelings for his ex. He just misunderstood and thinks Garam doesn't do lovey dover stuff because he doesn't like him as much. What's really the case is that Garam isn't the same as before because he was badly hurt. It's only after his breakup with his ex that he became more cautious, and I think he'll work his way into being more open again as their relationship progresses.
Yes hopefully. It really looks like Garam was madly in love with his ex and it makes me sad for Jaehuyk. I hope that ex will come back and be a nasty one so Garam will finally move on so we'll all be relieved, including JH
Based from how the ex couldn't defend Garam in front of his mom, his ex just really doesn't have half the balls/shamelessness Jaehyuk has lol I wouldn't be worried if the ex comes back, Jaehyuk is so much better
For real! And I am sucker for the bitch rival cliché anyways lol I just know we will have peak Jaehuyk's chivalry and nastyness if the ex comes back

- Jaehyuk used to be annoyed about people making a fuss about past relationships but now he's very bothered about Garam's ex that he couldn't sleep well.
- He wonders why Garam didn't wanna date after breaking up with his ex, if Garam liked his ex that much, and if the guy was Garam's first love.
- Garam notices that Jaehyuk looks tired and asks if it's because they had too much sex, but Jaehyuk says they're supposed to do it as much as they like. He pulls Garam into a kiss, but Garam is flustered and pushes him off, which causes his plate to fall down and break.
- That's when Jaehyuk snaps. He asks why did Garam even go out with him. He says he tried to hold it in and wait because Garam didn't like it when he says I like you or things like honey, but now Garam acts like that from just kissing. He asks if Garam even likes him. He asks if Garam was like this before and if he just have sex when he meets his ex.
- Garam says it has nothing to do with now, and Jaehyuk resigns to thinking that Garam really was different with his ex. He says in the end, he's just a dildo to Garam while cleaning up the broken plate. He leaves and says he won't be coming back to the apartment for today.
