I was kinda scared to check the comments cuz I loved it so much and i thought ppl would hate it but that wasn't the case and that makes me so happy.

For people who wanna read more with this/ similar dynamic, although not as toxic, I'd recommend these -

Hiraga san's character design is my weakness.
(つ✧ω✧)つ

- Shoulder length dyed hair with visible roots
- Piercings
- Pretty face
- Tall figure

my heart would burst if I ever even breathe the same air as someone like him TT
and it all started from Kenma (つ≧▽≦)つ

such a cute oneshot, like always I WANT MORE

To read the novel, find it on #2 in the list:
https://www.mangago.zone/home/mangalist/2960527/

Not gonna lie but the art is not giving in comparison to the novel.

There are 50 chps in the raw sites and the scenes are really choppy and artstyle doesn't do any justice to the beautiful descriptions in the novel.
It deserves a better artist, also seeing some of my fav scenes being changed in the manhwa was pretty heart breaking.

I'll give you an example of how the novel describe ml from mc's perspective and then you can compare it yourself, if the art does justice to the comparison:

"His eyes shone more golden than before, his bleached hair with black roots, fair skin like white jade, neat eyebrows, his high nose bridge, and his fine jawline that moved every time he spoke, his protruding neckline, and bright red lips.
Even though I've been seeing this face for a long time, it still feels like it just popped out of a painting. No, it actually popped out of a novel."

The art is so plain it doesn't capture any of these words as it should. Baek Tae Beom (ML) is also described to be quite taller and muscular than the mc but the manhwa's anatomy perspective is so messed up that in a lot of scenes it seems like both are of the same height and physique.

Another thing is that Baek Tae Beom's expression are drawn as very aggressive in certain situations, whereas in the novel in those situations he's described as "whining like a puppy" kind, this will give the manhwa readers a very wrong outlook on ML which is so sad. Novel him is like a literal puppy in front of mc and manhwa him is like a teenager with extreme mood swings and anger issues at least from the art. (。•︿•。)

The manhwa is still quite true to the novel chapter wise but the novel explains a few things here and there that helps us to understand the story better whereas the manhwa doesn't, which makes it really difficult to immerse yourself in the manhwa and the artstyle already doesn't help.

2 chapters of the novel (could be more but as far as from what I've read until now) weren't included in the manhwa, although not that important, those 2 chapters gave readers quite the insight.

I'm not a novel reader or well i wasn't a novel reader until I decided to read this manhwa's novel and honestly I loved it enough to now consider being a novel reader lol.

The chapters in the novel are short and easy to follow, the pace is a lil fast so can't do much about that, and there might be times where you'd be like "uh this thing isn't explained in detail?" and you just gotta accept as it's given but regardless its atleast better than the manhwa.

I'd personally encourage ppl to read the novel until and hopefully the manhwa adaptation gets serialised by a better artist.

I thought 4 years of studying Sanskrit was for nothing......who knew I'd use my knowledge to understand a bl manhwa's dialogue (≧▽≦)
but fr tho,
WHY DOES A BL MANWHA HAVE SANSKRIT WHAT THE HELL WHAT KIND OF CROSS OVER IS THIS??????
FIRST IT WAS DISNEY PRINCESS STORIES AS BL
THEN IT WAS MY FAV JIM CARREY MOVIE : "THE TRUMAN SHOW" AS A BL
AND NOW I AM READING SANSKRIT IN BL

I've said it before and I'll say it again, bl universe never fails to surprise me be it in a good way or a bad way

Season 1 was pretty frustrating and boring and also the reason why I had dropped this a few years ago but every now and then I'd come across edits of Daeshik and Yosef and it peaked my curiosity a lot about their relationship, hence i came back, skimmed through season 1 and only stopped at chapters in season 1 where Daeshik and Yosef interacted lmao and then savoured each and every panel of season 2, everything about it was amazingggggg.
The entirety of my review is based on season 2!
Daeshik is soo cute!!!
The whole communication thing in this story is so great I can't appreciate it enough, especially between Daeshik and Yosef.
I love love love the fact that the actual insertion (D and Y) happened after 3 foreplay situations lmaoo, it made their sexual tension soo much higher.
I realised I love their relationship even more cuz of Yosef being in mafia and Daeshik being a civilian and the whole "we can't be together, i can't afford to put you in danger" ITS ALL BECAUSE I USED TO STAY UP ALL NIGHT PLAYING EPISODES WITH SUCH TROPES!!!!
I'll say it again, their level of communication is too fucking good, the way Yosef explained all his reasonings clearly as to why he can't leave the gang was so refreshing!!! or maybe not so much but it's just that all the popular manhwas with toxic ass semes that dk the C of communication have made my standards weirdly low TT.
I loved Daeshik's thinking skills a lot!!! He's entj and I'm intj so makes sense lol.
Also this turned out way more interesting than i thought genuinely what the hell!? Especially the plot twists and omgg Daeshik is the actual mc of the story idek why they put Jihyun and Yohan on the cover!???
It was really intriguing and interesting when the whole leaving gang arc started.
Not one chapter of Season 2 made me wanna take a break cause of how good it was!!
Also by the end the whole found family scene was soo cute!! made me cry lol.
Anyways, really good story as long as you kinda forget about season 1.
would recommend!

same author as our sunny days!!? I'm reading this really late lol.
First off, thank you to @Jay for mentioning about this story, cause that's what led me here.
As for this story?
I don't have any words, its beautiful, it's perfectly well paced for the amount of chapters it has, their relationship is very healthy, the plot was focused perfectly too.
Dean is such a cutie pie, despite all his trauma, never once did he let that affect his behaviour towards Craig, I can't with how healthy their relationship is.
Love this author a lot, bless her for making these stories with green flag semes and healthy relationships while others mass produce garbage cuz it's "popular".
I loved this story a lot.
would recommend! <3
