I think it's a nice story and the characters have some depth.
As a gay with a late coming out I can really relate to someone first suppressing his desires and then opening up. The hormones keeps you switching constantly between guilt and desire.
The Little brother's ambivalence though is a bit hard to understand.
I could not stop reading this - why does this guy always return to his tormentor instead of staying with his other, sweet love interest?? Frustrating!
That reminds me of the classic theme of Greec drama: Because of a whim of the gods, the protagonist becomes guilty without knowing. He is the reason for everything around him becoming undone - even destroyed whithout him conscioulsy wanting this or intended by him.
His beauty is a catalyst for unsettling the fragile balance of his surroundings. He cannot avoid it and because he doesn't understand, he cannot act. It's his fate.
Greec Drama follows 5 phases/acts. What we have just seen is the catastrophy. Now the so called catharsis ('cleaning') should follow.
OK, all this stuff I just wrote to cope with my empathy for the protagonists. The theme of a guy returning to his abusive relationship again and again is deeply unsettling for me.
I hope in the final, Kyung-Soo will find some kind of peace for himself.
Am I the only one thinking that the two have a crush on each other without knowing?
And what role does the gay guy will Play in the end?
Suspense!!
I read the raw.
SPOILER ALERT!

The main character (gay who like to dress as a girl) is basically like a cupid for the other two.
The other two end up being together.
The main guy got a partner (new guy) introduced in the later chapters.
