Oh Taeju your start was way to ruff for this to really change much about how I see you.
I would look at this mini arc and think "omg he is such a great male lead and love intrest for our protagonist" then I remember how majority of their relationship is completely built on his own manipulations and making our main guy over here completely reliant on him both emotionally and psychically (and financially).
Like it's objectively sad how you can't honestly say how they "fell in love"
Well I'm here to see how this story end at this point so ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
Would have been 10x better if he just killed himself and escaped Taeju but lmao
