This story feels so human because of how the MC stays true to his character: awkward, shy, and timid yet still pushes himself out of his comfort zone to express his feelings for the ML. He is completely smitten. Even though the ML has a future fiancé, he can't help but hold onto his love for the ML, even if it means being selfish. Despite being rejected too, he still prioritizes the ML’s happiness, going so far as to try and save his sister from a death, even if it makes him look like a stalker, weirdo or a creep. Which is a nightmare to be perceived by. Especially, if its your crush too. YET does so, cause he loves the ML and knows the future events.

Yes, trying to "steal" the ML from his fiancé is selfish, but honestly, I can’t blame him. If I were in his position, I’d want to take my chance and convey my feelings too. The heart wants what it wants after all. And that, to me, is what makes him feel so real too. It’s almost ironic.. he’s timid, yet when it comes to love, he’s willing to cross lines he normally wouldn’t dare to. Being selfish then the next selfless. It’s so human, how contradictory and hypocritical his actions are, and that's what I love about him.

I DO get why some people wouldn’t like the MC, and that’s fair. But personally, I don’t think he’s *that* bad.

    yeah i usually don't like the kind of plotline where the mc tries to "steal" away someone but i kinda can't hate the mc cause even if the rest of the story is a little weird, the mc is well written i think
