So I saw the raws and am now reading the novel ch.51 out of 138 (Google translate) and I have to say… I think the hyung genuinely has an interest in the MC but there’s so much misunderstandings and the MC has some trauma/issues from his past that definitely affects the way he handles his relationship with the ML. Also, the ML seems like he’s in a “fake” relationship?? With a girl idk will continue to read more to find out what exactly is going on
He’s hot but I hope the FL doesn’t give in easily… let him stew in misery and jealousy for a bit until he becomes sincere with her. Also, I wonder if he has anything to do with what happened between the FL and her ex-fiancé?
Omg this is hilarious! when they were French kissing and she pictured their tongues like ppl fighting
I’m probably of the minority opinion here but I actually like seonbae for the ML
Yes I know he has some a**hole moments but I actually think it stems from jealousy and misunderstandings. From the beginning he noticed the ML, was nice to him and thought he was cute. He’s never thought of him as weird and has defended him multiple times against ppl who have said it both in front of ML and when ML has not been there.
Seonbae accuses hyung of acting more than a stepbrother but isn’t he actually the one acting as more than a f*** buddy?
-He turns down the blind date meeting
-calls ML babe, honey etc
-calls, texts, asks him to hang out like they’re dating and gets upset when ML doesn’t respond
-after their night together, one of the texts he sends the ML is why he left without saying anything? Why would a normal f*** buddy care about that?
-apologized every time he said something that upset the ML
-seems to genuinely be concerned about the ML (tried to find out about hyung, didn’t take ML’s hand when he was falling, when ML went MIA for 4 days was worried)
I think that if he had never joked around in the beginning that ML only wanted to sleep with him, then they could’ve started dating “normally”. They both seemed disappointed when they thought the other was only looking for sex
No cause I agree I don’t think seonbae is that bad. The only thing I think he sucked for was when I think their friend asked if he would date mc some thing and he was like hell no. And then the other part that actually really sucked was when the MC was like Seonabe “what are we” like after they had just finished having sex and he was like what do you mean we’re fuck buddies. Like I don’t think he’s dense so that was upsetting either than that I actually am rooting for them simply because the second ML isn’t doing it for me just yet. Like I’m getting nothing. He not enough yet
i actually like the sunbae too, and decided to drop this because i read the comments.
reminds me of another manhua, one step from hell
I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE
Wait… what ch is it that the friend asks if he would date the ML?
But yeah he does say they are just f*** buddies and you can see the ML so sad after that although technically that is what they are…
I read the raw for the author’s notes after S1 and they mention Chan Young (sunbae) having his first heartbreak so… I’m guessing ML breaks up with him and he realizes he really likes him. And like someone else’s theory in the comments that ML and sunbae will eventually team up and figure out what to do about hyung/tree spirit. Looking forward to S2!
EXACTLYY OMG
SPOILERS:
You actually get some chapters with the seme’s POV and it turns out right from the beginning he’s noticed the uke and he realized that the uke was just all talk and would actually show signs of being nervous around girls. At first he thinks he notices inwhi because he wants to sleep with him but once he realizes he likes him for real that’s when he starts pursuing him. I’m not sure if that the seme didn’t pretend he needed relationship help that the uke would even actually notice the seme like that…
Anyway, so yeah the seme genuinely likes him even if the method to get close is kinda dubious He’s really gentle and caring with him and is 100% all about the uke
Has it been translated to English and if so do you have a link?
Unfortunately haven’t found any official or fan translations. Read it using google translate. The translations can be kinda wonky but I got the gist of it
Binge read this to the current chapter and honestly Eun Tak gave me so much second hand embarrassment in the earlier chapters. Like, I get you like him but Do Jae told you outright how he was and what he was all about which I think is better than others who pretend just to get in your pants. And unless someone tells you outright it’s exclusive or that you make it an official relationship, never assume!
But, now we’re in phase where the seme is the one all obsessed and for Eun Tank’s sake I’m going to enjoy watching Do Jae squirm and get hot and bothered with everything lol
It’s so weird for me how it seems to be so common to sleep with 10 people at once and at the same time try to date? Like why is this acceptable. ML is just trashy
Not that I’m condoning the behavior, but unfortunately that’s just how some ppl operate. You can’t change them. You either take them or leave them and unfortunately ET still decides to pursue DJ despite all the warnings.
In the real world, if ET was my friend I’d be yelling at him to leave the walking red flag alone and find a better person to like. But since this is the webtoon verse he got the fuckboi to fall in love and commit
Same :(( ML needs to get help for his social and emotional sides instead of sleeping around and dating. MC needs to get some self respect because wtf
*social and emotional issues
Unpopular opinion but… I like Soo Hyun x Daon. At least during their college years…
ME TOO!!! Even at the end I feel like he got the short end of the stick and was left for dust... I liked Soohyun a lot.
This makes both my head and my heart hurt…
I feel like so many things could’ve gone differently if the characters had just communicated with each other… like real heart to heart open honest communication…
And don’t get me started on Daon and Soohyun… I wish the author would make a side story or an alternative story with just these two…
