Was good, became a disappointment

I have stopped reading this way back when the chinese guy first appeared in the uni and started to get all buddy-buddy with Siwon. It frustrates the hell out of me that the stupid (and I mean he really is fucking stupid) Siwon just won't shut up and fucking listen to the guy he supposedly likes. Ever heard of the phrase "relationship is built on trust"? Why ever the hell would you believe some random stranger instead of your bf?? Since the very beginning Siwon was a fucking pain in the ass with his wishy-washy attitude and misplaced morals. Not that Kang Jinha is much better. He is better, but just a bit, and I believe that only because I'm already used to idiots refusing to just open their mouths and start fucking talking instead of creating unnecessary misunderstandings and then playing the victim when their attitude bites them in the ass.
Sure, the whole "conflict because of a misunderstanding that is born from miscommunication" is a popular trope and like 80% stories have some kind of version of it, but seriously, no need to base all of the angst in the story on the same fucking trope for the fiftieth time. Especially when the MC is usually a pathetic looser but the author makes him act wildly ooc just for the sake of yet another misunderstanding. At least stay true to your characterisation.
My point is, that in the beginning I really liked this story and was excited for every update, but ever since the chinese guy showed up it just became unbearably frustrating. I kinda still want to know how the story goes, but I'm not masochistic enough to force myself through this.

    Unpopular opinion, but I want the Chinese guy to end up with Jinha (this time Chinese guy is the one getting blindfolded etc). It seems like it's what he wanted all along, as he just wanted to hold onto Jinha's attention.

    If Jinha is going to end up in a toxic relationship, it better be with an adult (Chinese guy) than the whiney man child that is Siwon.

    (Not that this will actually happen, we all know how this story will end... Jinha will be stuck with Siwon and Siwon will blame the magic stones for his poor behaviour.
