I have a theory

Ok, so, obviously none of us can recognise ml and mc.

First, you have to admit that the artist is skilled - the lines are very clean and with the exception of face blindness it doesn't pull you out of the story.

There are some perspective/anatomy issues, but it's generally very good. So now, how many of you realised that about 90 % of all Korean manhwa MLs look very similar?

Now, imagine you are an artist who is trying an edgy look, has some issues sith drawing faces in different angles, tries to follow the vibe (being realistic, normally you would have more hair variety at least), but then can't resign from that same face type which they perceive as extremely handsome.

So they add a wee bit of eye variety (yeah, it's there), wee difference in cheekbones and go off. Now they find both characters attractive without making one too feminine, but keeping with style.

They probably have a higher up, an editor or whatnot who overlooked this.

Also, I do enjoy stories of horribly degenerate characters.

Guys just because they're the main characters and it's their story doesn't mean we approve. So far the story never said that their actions are appropriate, so don't trash. It's not exactly promoting it. I wouldn't be surprised if they got a kind of retribution, but then got away free&fine willy nilly, and I'd be fine. Cause it's fiction and I know it's wrong, even a fuckin 10 year old know such shit.

Like, obviously it's supposed to be edgy.

    100% same thoughts lol, something about this manhwa has art, vibes, and story I've not seen in a long time and I am so here for it. We need not good fictional people in media for those who enjoy reading it for diffrent reasons because, you know, it's fiction, and its not being romantizied, its only romantized for them, the two main dudes in univerese from their perspective of eachother, cause theyre kind of bad dudes in case people didnt notice lol- 've aslo not seen two main characters in BL that are so close in design in a LONGtike to the pont I have to reread panels over like 6 times to tell who's talking, but it fits this manhwa well and keeps me on my toes lmao- I think the author and artist are cooking on this one personally lol
