As someone who has finished the Novel, I can assure you that Dohyun is not a red/black flag, and his mistake is not as bad as the spoilers out there. This is why you should read the novel until the end idk why they called him manipulative but i never find that side of him in the novel, he never gashlight Wooyeon or anything. He aplogize properly. And his POV is soo funny and sad at the same time...

I read at this page

here ya go mate have a nice reading

True. calling him a black flag is too much lol. i have high standards for ML, and rarely tolerate toxic behavior, but in Dohyun's case, i understand the reason behind his mistakes. He also never treated Wooyeon badly, in fact he really cared for him.
a little bit Spoiler below:
Dohyun knew from the start that what he did was wrong, but was too afraid to say it because he was worried about Wooyeon's reaction (he was wrong for this, but i understand). He never intentionally wanted to hurt Wooyeon.

You guys are so mean lol. Idk i can't help but feel sorry for Yejun, his mental breakdown was caused mainly by Doyoon. I understand how hard it is for him to communicate to Doyoon.It's not easy yk, Have you forgotten how bad Doyoon treated Yejun? if i were raped multiple times, blackmailed, and trapped in an unstable relationship with someone i love one-sidedly, i would be scared too and think i would be just as crazy as him.
I really don't understand why people hate ian when he hasn't even done anything other than being depressed. If it was because he met heron, he has a valid reason to do that. what do you expect from someone who was groomed and manipulated since childhood?. or maybe you're too used to brian? well, good news ian is the depressed and manipulated version of brian!!
Right? Poor Ian is just super confused and doesn’t know who to believe because of the grooming.
100%, leave my man Ian alone!
they might be the same person at a fundamental level but their upbringing was vastly different, thus creating this interesting contrast between the two's actions & attitude.
I love them both dearly, this story is so interesting.
