throughout the manhwa, both Jo and Taejoon are shown to be possessive and combative of one-another. Jo is uncomfortable around TJ, the entire focus of the story thus far is how unstable and toxic Youngwoo/Ian and Taejoon’s relationship is. they cling to each other because that’s all they’ve ever known, knowing full well how much worse things will be and continue to be between them. Taejoon is controlling and borderline abusive, remarkably noted by Ian himself to be obsessive to the point it’s a problem.
the only way them being poly would make sense whatsoever would be for porn scenes. if you’re here for porn and not plot, i think there are other series fitting that better.
