The storyline was so good in the beginning and had alot of potential but I feel like halfway it got lost and all of sudden the seme changed too? Then towards the end he came back to the person he kinda was in the beginning? Also; they made Saha look like a dumbass in the department store chapter. Never went there? Never went on the stairs?? This would only make sense in a story where he had been shielded his entire life (by instance being in the shrine all day somewhere deserted and homeschooled) but later on we find out he went to a regular school (also to highschool) which means he did have somewhat of a regular life. And all of his personality in general was lacking: author really put him out as being a way too dumb naive person, which IN MY OPINION doesn’t pair well with the seme. Yes seme had a shitty childhood but let’s not forget everything he did have; the looks, wealth, status etc etc. In these type stories I just can’t understand what the seme ‘loves’ in the naive childlike person as someone that is or has to be superintelligent (seeing he is now a CEO) and ambitious. It always feels kinda off, and kind of manipulative.
Also; in my opinion what Saha saw was right then? Indirectly I still think Heesu killed his brother (not to say I liked the brother bc fuck that guy), but in theory he did calculate and drive him too it. I don’t think the brother would’ve actually went through with it if he only saw them doing the deed. What was the last drop was the talk with Heesu and a momentarily decision where he was already at the brink of death. Saha was sleepwalking (dont know how a sleepwalker can actually see and notice real life things that happen bc that actually devies sleepwalking I guess but okay), so he was fair I think in what he saw, bc maybe not directly but definitely with alot of manipulation Heesu did kill him. PS: wtf happened to the dad? And the mom??
Right?? I feel like there are too many plotholes that we missed to be able to connect all the dots and which just suddenly appeared to make the storyline somewhat logical to fill up those gaps. With some story you just really miss some critical thinking, realism and a proper story building. Which I think lacked in this case, which is so sad bc it had the potential in the beginning.
They just didn’t want us to be murderers and happy. Like we couldn’t be both. It had to be an accident. We couldn’t be 100% at fault for nothing. It wasn’t gonna go down like that. People had to be rooting for us to win and everyone else to lose. She knew how fine she made that man and she knew he couldn’t be a villain. They didn’t want us singing,”Heesu the red dick villain.” Cause we would all be like run Saha run! The whole thing at the end with the names and shit was just pure rambling at some point and that dude that kept coming back. Can it be plot holes if it’s filler with no point? Cause what the fuck was that medicine? And why did he want him to give it to his brother if it was nothing and found to be nothing?
By the comments I thought the ending was gonna be brutal. I actually liked the ending, I feel like a story like this could be a longer storyline with some more indebt about the characters and background. Like the plot is good; but with some more nuance and buildup this kind of story can be way more interesting and could pull you in more.
It’s literally 1am and I need to work tomorrow but I couldn’t put this masterpiece down. The story was so gutwrechingly good and realistic. *Spoiler ahead: it also doesn’t happen alot that in these type of stories the mc ends up with the second lead which caught me off guard. In the first couple chapters when the second lead got introduced it was so swift and we got so little indebt of him that I thought he would be a short filler person (like one that pushes the ‘main couple’ together, by some jealousy or something). By some reason what I love about this too is that, just like in real life, a person that may seem very small and insignificant at the time may be the person that changes your whole perspective and matures you. Alot of chapters I was waiting for Subin to waver (seeing his character I wouldn’t have been suprised by this). I love how they showed that a slow-paced and not always steady relationship, but one that always keeps trying to put in effort is the one that wins at the end of the finish line instead of the heart-racing, a little obsessive and unreachable first love.
I am very interested to see what Hyeonwoo, the older noona and her ex (but also the friend with red hair) will end up taking as a lifepath.
The last chapter had me shocked and gasping omg, the way everything came together. Makes me as a reader think how many on the things we saw were actually reality, how much of it was faked/calculated my Sungkyung and how much of it was out of the perspective of Cheong-rim ABSOLUTE CINEMA. Does anyone know more stories like this? I loveee this kind of angst/thrill!










I’m sorry but I can’t feel one drop of empathy for the seme. The only ones that I actually feel sorry for are Hangyul, his hyung and the gangster. I think the author is trying to make us like the seme after everything he did ‘wow look at him redeeming himself and not fucking a ghost’ well newflesh thats the least his shitty ass can do.
