Honestly I had super high hopes for it in the beginning, lots of things were going on and the MC was investigating what the previous owner of the body did. His bodyguard friend figured out who he was and then…..that’s it, the guy literally vanishes. He hasn’t been introduced in chapters now and the MC isn’t even investigating anymore, just continuing to be an idol. That would have been fine if it wasn’t already at 60 chapters. The way this stories going, there’s so many fillers that I honestly think it’ll be 150+ chapters long before it’s finished. This is also labelled as shounen ai, yet there’s not been a single indication of this in any chapter. I’m all for slow burns but this is next level, it’s slow burn because there’s nothing there. No romance or anything, 60 chapters in at that. There’s also so many things that were introduced but never talked about again. Even that actor that threatened him, we still don’t even know what he was threatening the MC with or what he was even talking about. That was like 30 chapters ago or so as well. Honestly the art is soo pretty, that I’m not dropping it yet but things need to start moving along with the main plot.
I just realized we're already in season 3 the story should have picked up around season 2... da hell
Does nobody realise how cruel this was?? The fact that Taewon purposefully kept Yusung by his side for years, treating him like actual shit and he knew the entire time that Yusung liked him?? Like yes how amazing that Taewon did some nice things for Yusung behind his back, but that doesn’t justify or erase how badly he treated him. I seriously hope Taewon’s not end game, he seriously needs some karma and a reality check cuz wtf.
It actually is quite bizarre this is seen as romantic and it very common place in Korean romance plots too but seen usually traditionally seen with as the chaebol or young boss and his female secretary/ underling dynamic quite often. The I treat you horribly because I know you will put up with it and it lets me test how willing you are to put up with the abuse means you really love me back or are worth my love should I feel inclined. It’s honestly disgusting but it’s extremely beloved as a trope it’s the Japanese Tsundre trope but made real with work place harassment and improper power imbalances. It’s why a lot of Korean women don’t want to get married because of the mistreatment they have and the cause of birth rate decline. Yet these same women are part of the patriarchy issue but making media and content that perpetuate these harmful and outdated forms of romantic allowances in a relationship.
