Honestly, considering it’s BL I’m just happy he was just a douche and not a rapist/abuser compared to other titles.
Yeah I feel like because he was just a douche his redemption arc actually worked and people love him now compared to other bls that no matter how much "redemption" they gave their mls it didn't matter because of how toxic they are
Tbh he's like a yellow flag to me, in the beginning and even now tbh, he's not a red ,or even worst, black flag type of ml.
Just the type of guy in real life where if you ever meet him, you would wish he would stub his toe every morning with how annoying he seems, but don't wish for his death because he's not that bad yk
I feel like jaehyuk at start is what most people are like in college and hs, horny and date just to date/play around, he was just also rude asf but that was only towards mc because he's a man but it seems like he was a good with other girls and treated them well during their "night", literally the only thing that made him bad was that he was homophoic but that was only the reason for first 10ish chapters then it was more like " I don't like that I like you because there's no way I'm gay" he's bascially just a real life immature man finally growing up and realizing that yes I like someone who's not a 10/10 mommy and that personality exists ,compared to other MLS that go through same " there's no way I like a man" but are abusive and are literally just psychos
