can someone tell me what they like about the story (plot, character writing, dialogue, etc.) other than the smut and art? The art was amazing but I feel so confused because I found everything else okay at best.

Yeah, it's just so basic. Nothing wrong with it, but I've seen this trope so many times it's kinda tiring and just leaves a bland taste in my mouth. There wasn't a single unique or interesting thing about the characters either it just seems like a song on repeat. Except it's one of those songs that sound nice as long as you don't listen to them more than twice in a row, otherwise you end up with a headache lol.
This really is a guidebook for BDSM. Everything is so well done :’)
Hopefully this inspires some authors to do similar manhwa.
