Honestly I'm so over these old ass trauma-laden love-averse ukes... Like, grow up you shithead. I can't believe I'm rooting for the idiot seme.
I don't really even think he's love averse, I would say he's cautious and probably healing with time from his trauma? Like, he's on his own, focusing on his studies and gets on with casual dating and hook ups. People need time and money (for therapy) to deal with some deep-rooted stuff, and he has neither atm, he's a broke college student that works his ass for his scholarship. Also Mioro said it before as well, Jaehyuk is a piece of work and is just becoming a decent person rn, dude was a total prick before getting rejected. Garam is 100% in the right in my perspective, and some would say he's even being too lenient.
I know this is supposed to be a psycho-seme plot, but I find the uke terribly unrelatable. Like, how can you devote so much time of your life to willingly take care of someone else that bears no ties to you and not fall even a little bit in love when they finally enter your life? TBH I find the uke's coldness more unhuman-like than the seme's psychopathy.
Mr.cha is an adult, has a job, knew his mother, sees him as a child, and tried to set boundaries.
Now the MC, is a child, likely psychologically disturbed, and is rather forceful.
Why would he fall in love when he has never interacted with the kid and sponsored him because of the tie he had with his mother, its logical that he wouldnt feel any romantic feelings towards him.
Uke needs to die rn (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
