I'm personally dropping this and recommending anyone reading to drop this or just scim through the raws yourself (it's currently completed at 72 chapters, maybe there will be side stories or a new season).
Honestly, this story was quite intriguing and I had hopes for it even with all the angst and miscommunicate between the characters. HOWEVER, the ending is shit, MC somehow loses all self-respect, chooses attachment over love and falls for the ass-hat ML again (and mind you, ass-hat ML literally hasn't even redeemn himself much, it was just a pity party at this point)
Anyways, what's the whole point of creating such an amazing second lead, have amazing chemistry between him and the MC just then toss him aside. The villain dude's overall re-appearance and motives seem weak (I know he's there for ass-hat ML's char development) but it just left a bad taste in my mouth when they had sexual scenes. Anyways, I just think MC could have just dealt with his own problems, worry about himself and move on (maybe be with secons-lead).Ass-hat ML can just deal with the villain himself as his karma. The end.
The start was nice, but it went downhill from season 2 onwards. The story was 80 chapters but was severly lacking detail and the development of the characters seem shallow, where so many unecessary details were brought up but did not contribute to the plot. Don't waste your time reading because it's mediocre and it's boring nearing the end.
