Encounter again in his wife's funeral when he's a detective whom has to investigate a fishy lawyer, Yuri! Moreover, he found his wife cheated & the adulterer was...
«✤[]✤» Umm.. Sometime even a Smart Man can also be Stupid!! -- [Spoiler] --
»» The Seme thought the upright Uke didn't accept his guy-love so he just fooled around. Until the Uke resigned which means he didn't let him do for work then he realizes the Uke's actually loved him since high school. (Pg.48) ( ̄ε(# ̄)ΣΣ *Hits Himself Twice*
»» Upset with the Seme did teacher, the Uke tried to forget him by working hard. But seeing the Seme again stirs up his buried feeling.

Hi to the uploader. Please remove this chapter. Didn't they say not to upload it here. They even reported it to mangago just to remove the chapter. Please respect their decision not to upload any chapters here. They already warned everyone on tumblr not to do it. It's very clear for everyone to read. The chapters are available to be read on tmblr. Because of the constant reuploads it is sometimes difficult to access their new translations. We don't even know if the next chapters will still be accessible on tmblr or if they'll even continue scanlating.

this story is connected to a story in "zhen" (chapter 6).
(this comment will contain spoilers so read both this oneshot and chapter 6 of zhen before you read my comment)
so there isn't any confusion, we'll call the seme flower 1, and we'll call the uke flower 2.
now. this oneshot follows flower 1's pov. we see that he is in love with flower 2, but flower 2 is in love with an insect, and wants to bear fruit for him.
every year, one (1) flower is chosen, and that flower will bear fruits. flower 1 has been chosen for a couple times before this oneshot. flower 2 wants to be chosen, like i said before, so he can bear fruits for that insect he's in love with. so, flower 2 goes to flower 1 during the winter to get advice on how to be chosen. they have sex, flower 1 doesn't admit his feelings though. he says that to bear fruits, a flower needs to be jealous.
flower 1 is jealous of the insect that flower 2 is in love with. which is why i think he was chosen for a couple of times.
after this, flower 1 "retires" and nominates flower 2 to be chosen next. flower 2 is chosen, as we see in ch 6 of zhen.
now, let's move over to what's happening in ch 6 of zhen.
we are introduced to the insect that flower 1 is in love with. he's having a flashback to a year before, when he learned that flower 2 could not bear fruit or nectar. flower 2 says that while he cannot bear fruit, he loves the insect.
the flashback is over, and we see the insect, who is with flower 1, pollinating (having sex). flower 1 tells the insect that only one flower out of all the rest bears fruit. he also asks the insect "just how many times this year have you been covered in pollen?" which indicates that this insects goes around to a lot of different flowers. the insect responds "i can't help it, you all smell so delicious, even though there's nothing inside". at this point, flower 1 tells the insect that flower 2 had become the top flower if that year. (the fact that flower 1 tells him this is important). he says that if the insect is looking for fruit, he might find some there (with flower 2).
there is another small flashback, where flower 2 tells the insect "i don't want to let you go to any other flower" (jealousy). so then, the insect heads over to flower 2. as he approaches, flower 2 tells him to not come any closer because he's covered in another flower's pollen. the insect asks if flower 2 is jealous, to which flower 2 responds "i had no idea! to become the top flower i..." at which point, the insect flies down into his flower. he's looking around, and mentions that there's a barb at the top of the flower, then asks himself how he's supposed to get out.
we then see flower 2 say "there's no exit." flower 2 then explains that if a flower becomes the top flower of the year, they close the escape hatch for insects. he says "you can never leave here again. i will use the pollen on your body for fertilization and make fruit. the most splendid flower is a deeply jealous one."
additionally, the flowers are japanese arisaema. these are sex-changing flowers, as the author stated. these flowers have a "pitfall trap". usually, it's carnivorous flowers that have this, but the arisaema use it as a method of pollination. the key points that relate to this story are the differences between the male and female plants. male japanese arisaema have a hole at the bottom of the flower so that when an insect goes into the flower, they get a bunch of pollen on them and come out of the hole at the bottom, then (hopefully) go to a female flower and pollinate. this is key, because the insect that flower 2 is in love with was stated to "be covered in pollen" often, which indicates that he goes through a lot of male flowers (perhaps all of these encounters are sexual, but we aren't really shown an explanation). in any case, this is why flower 2 was okay with meeting the insect. the insect could still leave the flower afterwards.
now, the female japanese arisaema, however, doesn't have an escape hatch for insects. it would be really hard for an insect who went down into a female arisaema to get back out, hence why flower 2 was crying. therefore, the insect most likely would die.
i hope this explained some things to you, because i think this story was wayyy too vague.

As in I completely missed a major theme of the story and just how clearly Dohyun and Sungho are each other's foils lol. So I feel like the main theme of the story is how to cope with the transience of all relationships. The high school relationships of the main characters pushed them in two opposite and unhealthy directions: Sungho clinged obsessively to his memories while also slightly distorting them to place more blame onto Dohyun (he actually admits to himself that Dohyun didn't really pressure him into sex at one point, but he holds onto the idea and his hatred of Dohyun due to internalized homophobia.) His feelings quickly spiralled into a terrifyingly severe mental illness which ultimately contributed to his crimes.
Dohyun meanwhile went down a more functional but ultimately extremely damaging path. From early on, he came to believe that all attachment to others results in pain. When he was together with Sungho he allowed himself to hope that things might be different, and that his duelling hope and doubt led him to test Sungho's attachment to him, which in turn made Sungho desperate, which in turn led to tragedy. A sad case of miscommunication.
In any case, the way things ended cemented Dohyun's mindset: his chief goal in life is to avoid pain, which is why he'll take pleasure when it falls on his path, but never pursues anything. No ambition. Nothing to look forward. No-one he cares about or who cares about him, all in the name to avoid the pain that would come when the relationships would inevitably end. He's functional, but a pretty shitty person and definitely unhappy. It's all survival all the time, which is why he so easily forgot everything about his HS school that might have caused him pain. And what did all those sacrifices to avoid pain get him? A dead-end life, followed by kidnapping and awful abuse with no end in sight. Pain upon pain upon pain. No wonder he cracked.
In this light, I feel a little better about the ending: it's two people with horrible, (self-)destructive approaches to relationships finding some kind of middle ground: actually having a meaningful connection with someone (Dohyun) without ruining everything with too much possessiveness and obsessiveness (Sungho). So at least it makes thematic sense even if I'm screaming THERAPY NOT DATING at the screen. With that said, I still wish Sungho had answered for his crimes as well as gotten some SERIOUS psychological help. Dohyun definitely needs serious help too is symptoms during his breakdown match with acute stress disorder which can turn into ptsd if not treated :( But at least as a short-term thing, maybe them being together gives them a better chance to actually improve their lives. I hope.
(yeah I do think they were actually getting some kinda therapy at the end but i'm not sure that's enough. :/ Fingers crossed.)
