I just gotta add more about how much I love Haesoo. She's been through hell and back and the way she's caught in such a toxic relationship HURTS. The fact that she was trying to convince herself that everything was fine and as she said all those things like "it's not even a big deal, you're just making a fuss" it shifted to Minheok being the one saying it? Like, he infected her so deeply that her inner critic has his voice.
And she perseveres so much. I genuinely can't blame her for any of her actions thus far because life has dealt her such a fucked up hand that she's strong just for holding on in whatever way she can. Genuinely such a well written character in my opinion because her hurt runs so deep that she's scared to allow herself even emotions, even from a young age she was hesitant. But now she's jaded (understandably) and exhausted (understandably) but she goes on without complaint. It hurts seeing her so poorly treated, but I really, really, really hope Taeha stays good to her. I know he loves her so much and even when she's rejected him he's been pretty okay with it so I don't think he'd do anything crazy but dude has a lot of demons. So I just hope they can be together and heal rather than hurt each other because DAMN IT this woman deserves GOOD things!!! For once in her life!
About Jay: the rest of that section on why I'm obsessed with him was supposed to say: "like we love a disgruntled employee who does his job diligently. Him holding the sign that says "now let's say it together. Do not abuse power." Lmaoo I'm obsessed" and also have the blushy emoji bc he's so
This is so fucking beautiful??? Like, the angst is devastating, I felt so damn bad for Haesoo. The fact that Minheok used to be the brightest thing in her world, and he was genuinely so sweet, is actually devastating. (Also the fact that they made him hot pissed me off lmao like I HATE him I don't want to think he's pretty). No, but seriously, when it showed how sweet their relationship initially was it tore me up. How he devolved into someone so detestable from someone so wonderful is so terrifying. I hate him so much.
Taeha is such a fun character cause this dude is definitely crazy but he's also damn loyal... Do I just want Haesoo to have a sweet, lovely relationship? Yes. But with the shit in her life maybe she needs a crazy guard dog like Taeha lmao. Also, he's so beautiful like damn... As soon as he pushes his hair back I'm like wow.
The art is really pretty.
Seriously though, this is genuinely so beautifully written. I wanted to cry on so many occasions, and I have too much to say to get into it all. Like, even just the way that things are phrased is so... Idk, it's just beautiful. SO many amazing lines, but some that really hit were "The scars life left on her made her strong, but... When it came to wounds left by a loved one, she was powerless." and "Will I live until my dying day bleeding from the memory of you?" and "Everyone... Thought you were a waste." and "The most glittering thing I ever had... He disappeared just like that."
Like uGH, just rip my heart out. Jeez.
Bonus: I'm obsessed with Jay he's so
