I think the author is taking their time to develop Seowoo as a complex character. We're slowly seeing this shift from a character who didnt even care if he died to finding the joy in living again. That is the tragedy of it all because we know he's already going to die and as far as the audience and characters know - there is no changing that. I really appreciate the author for not rushing the story. There's something about a tragic character finding hope again that wrecks me, I just want him to be happy again. And the worst part is, he'll probably find happiness in the ONE thing he cant have which is Mr. Reaper. Behind the sex scenes there is actually a really interesting plot. (PLUS THE SEX SCENES ARE GREAT SO IDK WHY PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING?? ) The slow pacing is fleshing out the characters to being complex and multidimensional and im living for it!
