The illustrations in the newest chapter (33) are just stunning wowwww wow beautiful. I especially like the drawing with the slightly overhead view while they’re having beers at the outdoor restaurant.
Also I love Heesuh. He’s so funny. He’s that tsundere that you’ve gotta keep hugging, while they’re flailing and complaining, until they buy you a gazillion dollar watch and admit to liking you too.
As an addendum to my earlier comment: I think people are forgetting that president mo started out cold and extremely difficult to work with. He didn’t really turn around and become a more likable person *until* secretary Xiao began to influence his behavior. He had to be taught to engage with his employees and show that he cares. Mo has flaws too! And that’s okay!
I’m really weirded out, though, that there’s so much hate for secretary Xiao because he’s an abuse survivor. It’s been very plain (obvious) in the story that that’s what he’s been going through. Mo is sad that they’re not official boyfriends but he doesn’t HATE secretary Xiao because of it. The plot is clearly headed towards a happy conclusion! It’s not dragging to me at all!! President Mo will get his happy ending! If everyone is so into Mo, the biggest part of his personality is that he loves xiao nuo! C’mon!!!!
My only comment is: these are the most 80s looking illustrations I’ve seen since reading actual printed comics from the 80s
Dang so many people are crazy harsh on secretary xiao!! Yeah president mo might have deep and lingering feelings for him, but I think xiao nuo’s been honest about what he’s capable of giving. He hasn’t been leading anyone on! I hope everyone remembers that when pres mo wanted them to get serious and live together, he cut things off cuz that was more than he could handle. We’ve not gotten the whole story so far, but the flashbacks are plenty to know he was in an abusive relationship before and getting beaten up.
Xiao nuo’s character should be allowed to have an arc and move at his own pace! He’s not going to magically get over horrific abuse just because someone wants to be his boyfriend!
And Mo isn’t perfect either! He’s had to learn to be more kind and humane. They’re both having to learn to open up in different ways.
Honestly, there’s no story if they just fall in love from day one.
This is a great comic that has a lot of fluff and humor, yet deals with complex topics, too. I hope people can gain some empathy and learn to be more humane from reading it, as well.
I love how Seo an thinks woo won is prissy for wanting to shower first but then he’s actually too prissy to have his ass eaten Seo an, woo won can teach you some things too I love them so much ughhhhhhh
I think their behavior makes a little more sense if you consider who they are. Heesuh is a top tier chaebol who thinks a Mercedes is a shabby hooptie. Jinmoo is also from an extremely wealthy family but he’s not at that very top percentile so he’s perceived to be a “dog.” Heesuh was raised to believe that relationships and marriage are solely transactional, theyre for business/class advancement.
Reading this comic, I’ve never thought that Heesuh actually hates Jinmoo. He’s fighting against the fact that Jinmoo is this person who causes him to have all these FEELINGS. Feelings in his world are uncomfortable and annoying. If you have feelings you might have to learn to be true to yourself. If you have feelings you might have to deal with the fact that you’ve liked Jinmoo since high school—instead of being the perfect chaebol with a trophy wife. It’s a fight Heesuh is having with himself, not Jinmoo.
Because Jinmoo is a lot more perceptive, he understands why Heesuh is struggling so much. It’s kinda like “ahhhhhh you’re trying” when Heesuh gets all pouty and whiny. I get why Jinmoo finds it so cute and adorable!
At least I’m not alone in feeling like this series has gone haywire since they started having sex. Before the boss really was doting and would do all these little things to show his love. Now it’s like… “who else is gonna cook for me” and forced sex. Wtf happened I hate this!!! The mc would be so much better off alone ☹ It feels like he’s in a loop of shitty relationships because he’s afraid of being outed. Looking back there’s something really ominous about the boss saying “now you’re not alone” or whatever after they first have sex. It comes off more as “now you’re trapped with me.”
I love these characters so much I wish I could chill with them in Haebeom’s courtyard every day ╥﹏╥ I wanna move to the countryside!!!
Thank you to all my fellow commenters who were like WHERE IS THE LUBE!??!!! Cuz no duh jeongmin is so uncomfortable rn!! owwww he will not be okay afterwards
There’s so much hate for the doctor but the motorcycle guy sucks too!! He blows up in anger really easily and was following Shi Yoon around and showing up at his house. A true lovable himbo does not give off these bad vibes. ☹☹
Also if shi yoon is a mob doctor (not legal) how is he working out of a regular hospital?? Lollllll
Omg I’m soooo happy they finally talked!!!!!! But is Juwon not gonna explain what he was actually jealous about?? That he thought Jeong Min had five gfs or whatever??
I hope the grey haired sunbae suddenly leaves the country or something!! He doesn’t like or love Hanjoo. He just views Hanjoo as a piece of property and is annoyed when that property isn’t easily accessible to him. The tree spirit is definitely creepy, but if he’s genuinely a manifestation of Hanjoo’s desires, ‘hyung’ is at least motivated by that. I agree with the other commenter that spirit-hyung is manipulating Hanjoo’s reality to mask how painful his life is. That’s suspicious yet…. to me, it’s nowhere near as alarming as the abuse and manipulation Chanyoung inflicts out of selfishness and entitlement. Sunbae finds it entertaining and pleasurable to hurt and control Hanjoo. That’s way too messed up!!
A happy ending for me would be if tree spirit hyung helps Hanjoo to find a livable version of reality where these weird familial imaginings aren’t happening. Hanjoo shouldn’t be with either of them!! He needs therapy! This is a BL story, though, so what’s more likely is he’ll end up with the grey haired abuser or something horrific like that
The chapters are sooooo short! I wish more progress could’ve been made before the season finale!
I feel so bad for him Juwon hasn’t texted him back in more than a week and is visibly avoiding him at school. He hasn’t done anything wrong but is left to feel sad and confused (and used) because of something that’s made up in Juwon’s mind. They’re so cute together!! Get your shit together and be a better bf Juwon
