I hate stories between the victim and their abuser aka Taesan and Junwoo type. So the MC who is carefully navigating the little high school social games and hierarchy ladder to stay safe is a breath of fresh air. Anyway he’s not a good person, neither is Yohan or all the people surrounding them. The webtoon is very well done but it’s leaving out a lot of the intricacies from the novel unfortunately! I feel like at this stage I’m the novel, by now, the MC character is well explained and people don’t have anymore illusions or expectations about what kind of person he is lol.

What I love about this BL is that it makes fun of the usual toxic abusive rapist ML that falls for a poor, spineless but cute MC. Those stories are usually so predictable and boring full of jealousy, possessiveness, violence and rape on their way to a their happy ending. To each their own taste but I don’t get the hype. So it’s a delight to see it from outsiders POVs here. Now Yohan is a manipulative psycho plain and simple, just born that way and Jun is a self-centered, selfish, calculating, insecure ans mean little shit and I love the two of them together. They’re not nice. They’re not the good guys and they’re relationship won’t be not smooth either but still it’s an enjoyable ride.
