Seungho seemed like a jerk in the latest chapter but since I can’t understand Korean, I’d prefer not to base my image on him on a likely inaccurate interpretation. Maybe Seungho’s trying to trick the nobles? The power struggle between him and Min seems to be kinda rough right now.
i read the chapter on lezh*n

yeah, he was kind of a jerk. plus he's pissy (you know how he gets when he's in denial lol). he did kiss min to shut him up, but at the same time, i think to spite nakyum (i'm assuming based on the way he reacted about figuring out nakyum was being submissive bc of inhun). i'm not sure what you mean by "power struggle" though.
and i agree about the seungho trying to trick the nobles theory. that's exactly the same way i viewed the scene.

Currently, Seungho's the most powerful of the nobles in that village, or in terms of bed matters: he's the most dominant, and this can be seen by how none of the nobles in that village has ever topped him. Not to mention there are several other hints that imply that he's pretty powerful but they're never in your face.
But now this position of his is being threatened since Min has pretty much implied that he wants that position and has been chipping away at Seungho's influence over the nobles. He's even trying to act like Seungho lol, with him smoking while staring off into the distance. Also, the nobles seem to be with Min more than Seungho, a sign that Seungho's influence over the nobles is weakening.
The conversation between Seungho and Min during the hunt was Seungho basically saying "I know your schemes and I will stop you." So yeah, there's a power struggle between them.

imo, seungho's not the kind of person to let others' words affect him. he's playing a game, but, idk what kind. tbh, it's hard to imagine him letting others touch nakyum given how possessive he was of him in all the earlier chapters.
(i'm referring to the seungho's last quote where he says, "fine. let us enjoy him together.")
I'm pretty sure this is gonna get downvoted but here it goes...
Maybe it's because I've never been jealous but from my perspective, the MC's like a bratty child. His crush is straight and it feels as though he just somehow can't accept it unconsciously?
It's like he still has some hope of his friend turning out to be a gay/ bisexual person. Not that that's bad (perfectly normal actually) but his behaviour because of it is plain awful. He goes to yell at his friend for pretty much PDAing with his gf. Yes, PDA is pretty unnerving to look at but you can't just yell at someone for doing it. You can politely tell them that you feel uncomfortable. If they make some snarky remark back, then harden your stance. People understand. Whats more, he's your friend.
Then the MC hates the gf just because she's dating his crush? That's unreasonable.
Look, it's not like I can't understand the MC. I'm a bisexual person. And it's hard for me to tell my parents or anyone close because it's really difficult to determine who'll support you when society is generally extremely anti-LGBTQ . I don't want to burn down all my relationships nor do I want to be ostracized. Yes, hiding and denying is tiring and frustrating. But please don't lash out at others.
actually I kinda understand why the MC behave like that.. .it feels like a defense mechanism when someone hides their frustrations or pain or disapointment to one or another.. .well given to his situation that he never told anyone about his sexuality or feelings, maybe that is his own way of saying that his hurt without realizing that he's acting rude.. .
Please keep in mind that this is a real person’s life story, and humans grow up by making mistakes and learning from them.
The author has decided to share his life story with us, putting it on paper, therefore they must have also known about their shortcomings. The first step of changing and growing up is knowing about your mistakes and accepting them and I believe that they have achieved that, since they are sharing their mistakes with us thru this story.
I like that they didn’t sprinkle the story with glitter and hid away their flaws, it made me feel closer to this person that I most likely will never meet. It is human to make mistakes, but to be able to realise your mistake, accept and learn from them is very hard, so shouldn’t we be praising the author of this story for achieving that, instead of finding faults with them?
I’m only sharing my opinion so you don’t have to agree with me tho ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
Thank you for sharing your viewpoint, but this is a real person, we have to remember that. From a different time period, different culture, different education, not exposed to other experience you have had that has molded your way of thinking and making decisions. This "bratty MC" is a real person not some character we can easily nit pick their flaws to make the story less angst because this is real life. Real feelings. Real mistakes. You said you've never been jealous, me neither personally. But he has harbored and bottled up all these emotions for years and it seems like he's at a breaking point. I don't think it's fair for us to criticize his frustration especially after all he's been through. Anger is an emotion, lashing out on others is not rational when we're not in their shoes. You have to try to be more understanding.
This is based on real life and not every country have the same perspective. He still in the process of trying to find himself and understand himself. We learn and grow. Everyone makes mistake. Everyone have different personality. Just bcs you not in his shoes, You can said he a “bratty” person. Everyone undergo different phase. I tell you. It’s not that easy to hold up the emotion. You will explode too one day.
First of all it's a real life experience so we really shouldn't be judging, but I think his jealousy is not simply bc he likes his friend, but a lot of other emotions (anger for not being "normal", he's afraid he won't be loved and that he will left alone). He just happens to direct all his complex feelings on his friend and his girlfriend.
It actually happens a lot when a situation is very frustrating and we blame people who are not responsible directly for it.
