The name of the drug facepalm myself. I love the author but that felt stupidly designed un the worst way possible. If that was the reason why wait till season 2 for that reveal?! Feels stupid to wait for season 2 to figure out something as important as the name.
I can accept that silly and dumb reason for the name in a 2014-2017 wattpad story from some random amateur afficionado but from a author from lezhin with good works under her belt. Sorry not tolerable, it feel super weak for the plot.
When I read the name of the drug I was like: NO AUTHOR YOU DID NOT JUST DO THAT. And then I proceeded to laugh out loud. Because it felt like a joke. sorry not sorry

I think one of the main reasons I can't stand YJ beside being an absolute piece of trash who thinks with his dick, is that he is DUMB as fuck. Doing so many unnecessary stuff it gets him nowhere really. Some times ML are selfish and trash but pretty intelligent and you know why they do shit or scheme against the MC but this YJ can't even do that. Why would you trust the word of some random background character just cuz he said it doesnt have a side effect....Bru wake the fuck up.. every normal drug has a level of side effects, there is no such thing as 0 side effects you stupid fuck. And let's not even begin with the fact that this could have been poison for all he knew and killed wooyu right away.
I swear this YJ gets more hateful with his hypocrisy and fake love bullshit every chapter I just can't. Someone who doesn't cares about your health and wants to feed you shady drugs from unknown origins is just TRASH you need to take out of your life.

It may be cuz I'm in health care professionaly speaking but I f*cking hate and abhor Jiheon cuz I mean you have the audacity to feed your "most loved" friend and partner with some bullshit unknown origins drug, which is shady as fuck and could be deadly or have serious adverse effects to Woojus body. It's the disrespect for me, just go fuck yourself Jiheon or even better why don't YOU eat the shady most likely harmfull drug and die in a ditch.
Choosing to do it already makes you hateful but to still claim you love him, he's you priority etc is just even more irritating and hypocritical, makes m wanna spit his face.
Because it's obvious to us all Jiheon, You are more interested in naturally getting you dick wet and satisfying you claim that in Wooju's body health and well-being. You are fucking trash that's what.

My brain cant help but remember Iason Mink from old school Yaoi, Ai no Kusabi every time he comes into panels.
The long blonde hair, height, the elitism, blackmail, and even the entitled bastard attitude is just so alikeee
Like I can't unsee it (/TДT)/
Ai no kusabi is an iconic work but still why can't my brain forget Iason

I went back to check some facts about the novel and found volume two which I hadnt read.
It continues, and we see them in their crazy lovey dovey bubble living together woojing carefully build up...but like everything build on lies it's crumbling at the same time woojins convinced his happy ever after is about to come. Like everything goes to shit for him for the rookie mistake of having Haewon monitored. So since that point Haewon wakes up and found out fucking everything, that WJ manipulated everything about them, that he has psychiatric problem, the fucked up bunker and assault, his schemes to own the companies and sadly just how much Taeshin suffered.
Haewon always said he hated Taeshin but at that moment when reading it was bullshit, he was truly sad and collapsed crying when he knew just how Taeshin had been treated like a fucking dog and abused. It was one of the moments when he feel like a real character. And HW at least accepts he is a frisking psycho, I gueds that something.
An extract from that Part here:
"In that forest......, you said they were lost and wandering around for three days, trapped....., could it be Taeshin?" He didn't answer, his mouth tightly shut. Haewon's heart was beating like crazy. Haewon was about to throw herself, No, no. It can't be. No. No. No! 'Are you crazy? Are you really crazy?! And you still don't know why he died? Do you really not know ?
".... .Haewon."
"Don't call my name. It's disgusting and I don't want to hear it. Don't ever call my name again! You fucking punk!" I hit him with my fist. I only hit his shoulder. I only hit the part where I was trying to kill him with a stone. Woojin's face distorted every time I did that but he didn't really stop Haewon. Darker blood began to seep out of his shoulder, which was wearing a dark gray jacket, and soaked the fabric. I didn't stop punching him even as I watched his shoulder turn crimson. The car swayed for a moment. Woojin's car, which had been barely able to keep within its lane, ev entually stopped on the shoulder. The blood flowing down his shoulder dripped down the back of his hand, "Why did you do that? Why did you do that to Taeshin?! Why did you do that!"
"Why on earth did you do that! He just liked you, why on earth!"
No matter how much I hit him, nothing was resolved. It felt like my throat was burning, Woojin, who had caused me this pain, and Taes hin, who had died......Now, I really hated everythin g; He wanted to end his life in a hurry. Haewon, who had been punching him without thinking, was out of breath. The strength of the hand that had been hitting him hard also weakened, and eventually he could only hit him with a tap, tap. "Are you human? Are you....., Hyunwoojin, are you human?" I held tightly to the hem of the clothes of the man I liked and still love, and asked and asked again. l couldn't see clearly because of the tears.
Woojin, who had been silently enduring Haewon's wickedness, opened his mouth. "He's not human."
"Why on earth did you do that! Why on earth!?"
"I thought it might come in handy. I needed it for work. That's all."
He didn't treat him carelessly. He put in time and effort and made an effort. Woojin didn't think he did anything wrong to Taeshin. However, Haewon's whole body rushing towards him was pointing out that Woojin was at fault. He just looked at Haewon, who was savagely at tacking me with his emotionless, inorganic eyes at a point of confusion "Do you think that's an excuse?"
"I.....am abnormal."
"....what?"
"I still don't know what's wrong with it!"
It felt like Woojin was being questioned about stories that were merely conceptual and had no material basis, something he had been trying to understand his entire life, No matter how much he searched, he couldn'tnd the answer. No matter how hard he tried to solve it, it didn't work. Woojin shouted that he was so frustrated that he thought he was going to die, and that he was going crazy. Woojin deliberately stared straight ahead, not even looking at Haewon. He felt like he would do something if he kept his eyes on Haewon. He was scared that he was losing his self-control.

Yep, there is a whole arc of "redemption" and political stuff where WJ protects Haewon fron the other asholes with groveling, confused psycho and more political legal stuff with a ledger where WJ goes to jail and at least grows some humanity when he
"understands" what he did wrong. So time pases 1year and then he meets Haewon again and they end up together after he keeps apologizing
Then they sleep together and are like: don't lie to me again, I love you and need you by my side...and it ends with one more chapter where they show us lovey dovey behavior...so yep both pretty fucked up and crazy if you ask me:
Here where to read if you know korean: https://booktoki467.com/novel/5689481?stx=%EC%93%B0%EB%A6%B4&book=%EC%99%84%EA%B2%B0%EC%86%8C%EC%84%A4

Here , continuation my previous comment about the chapter that show how psycjo the ml is. In [ ] Taeshin letters:
"You wrote down the dog's complaints with great care."
He was saying that Ha-young's death was his fault, and that Tae-shin suicide was also his fault. Woo-jin didn't push anyone's back. He just did his job diligently and faithfully, The last piece written was not a diary, but a letter. It was a warning to Moon Hae-won, whom Lee Tae-shin believed to be a friend.
[Haewon, that person might come looking for you. When the two of you meet, you absolutely must stay away from that person. No, Haewon, you must run away. When you see that person, run away. Hyunwoojin doesn't love anyone. That person will eat you. Run away. Please run away.]
Lee Tae-shin must have had a premonition that Woo-jin and Hae-won would meet in some way after he committed suicide. He must have also known that if Woo-jin saw Hae-won, he would want to drag him to the bunker.
Woojin, who had been looking down at Lee Tae shin's notebook for a while, put a cigarette in his mouth and lit it. He put the two photos that Lee Taeshin had left behind between the notebooks as a clue to what Woojin had done and pressed the lighter. The flame lit up. He held the weak flame to the end of the notebook. As the wind blew, the flames sucked in oxygen and blazed fiercely. The fire began to burn the paper. For a moment, his face was clearly visible in the red flames. It was a face that was terribly indifferent, without any anticipation, sadness, or regret. Woojin held the end of the notebook and quietly watched the burning paper and flying sparks. The black plum tree that Hayoung had hung herself from also had this dark red color. The black plum tree that Hayoung had hung herself from was blooming petals in profusion.
The thick wick was completely burned, and Lee Tae-shin's last record and the letter he sent to his friend were shattered into charcoal. I threw the remnants of the completely burned notebook onto the floor. I stomped on it and crushed all the charcoal and ashes. Only the blackened traces, like the stump of a black plum tree, remained on the cement floor, leaving an eerie impression. Woojin finished smoking his cigarette and looked down at the ashen city. The neon lights illuminated his face in full view... "Run away?"
Run away. Run away from Hyunwoojin no matte r what.
Run away, Haewon. It was Lee Tae-shin, who he believed to be insensitive, who, like Kim Ha-young, had noticed Woo-jin's true nature. He was a snake, a murderer, and a monster who felt no emotions even though the flesh inside him was boiling and rotting.
That is the end of my spoiler, it is fucking scary for real, I like the author writing really, Like many said Haewon is special to woojin because he is obsessed but that guy is no less psycho by the end. The only reason he didn't do the same to Haewon is because he got obsessed. In his toxic love, you read him always describing Haewon as cute and how all the interactions when he seems normal are purely his faking or programmed behavior he displays because he analyzed Haewon won't run away or be easier to manipulate if he seems normal.

And this is just the part I like per se and find more informative over all but When you read other parts of the novel in Woojins POV, its scary, and you are able to realize how he saw everyone abusing Taeshin at that bunker and he was like, "Taeshin was enjoying it" Bru no he wasn't and he asked for help. Damn he really sick in the head

....
...
On the side stories they try to make you understand Woojing more, his psychiatric diagnosis and how he changes to become more human by falling or realizing he "loves" Haewoon. They show you how he feels things he never did or considers Haewons opinion important, how he now feels scared that Haewon will find out about his shady side or what came down with Taeshim and think badly of him. Yes the author makes him more emotional and human but sorry not less psycho, he's obsessession with Haewon only gets worse he wants to totally own and control him. Such a complicated dangerous character is a death flag.

Part 1 of my coment, too long spoiler so I will post another part.
Woojing is pure evil bru, psychopath level crazy pice of shit. Here mtranslation from the part of the novel I felt really conveyed his nature, the [ ] are the content of the letters Taeshin left for the uke, which by the way never read them. It's translated so maybe some parts are weird but believe everyone can understand enough:
[l don't know what's going on anymore. He just stared at me, smoking a cigarette. Tied to an iron pole, I had to become an animal, not a human. Dogs chased me. I ran away like prey being chased by wild beasts into the black forest and the mountains. It was a miracle that I came back alive. He who took me home had a pitiful look in his eyes, as if he couldn't even endure this. He said that I seemed to be enjoying it quite a bit. He had no idea how I felt. Something was shattered inside me. I was breathing, but I wasn't alive. I wasn't dead, but I wasn't alive either. What should I do? What should I do.....I keep having trouble breathing. It feels like something is tightening around me.]
As Woojin had feared, Lee Tae-shin had written down everything about the bunker. He majored in sculpture, and with his useless talent, he sketched the inside of the bunker almost exactly, and he drew himself tied to a pole and being teased with violent penstrokes. You could tell that his mind was broken by the deep pen marks that tore the note book.
Woojin's eyebrows twitched. Even though he se arched Haewon's officetel like crazy, he was holding something that hadn't been found. If it had been there, there was no way he wouldn't have found it. If it had been there and he hadn't found it, he would have kicked all the investigators' balls. Wooji n, who was furious at the investigators, soon realized that it was impossible for them not to have found it. This note and photo must have been given to Haewon after the illegal search .
[He is a snake. He is a murderer who eats huma n flesh. He is a snake that destroys souls and eve ntually eats them. I heard that he had a fiancee an d she committed suicide. He killed her. He was killing me The hardest thing is not that he didn't love me. What's really hard, what's really painful, what's un bearably painful, is that he can't love anyone, anyone. He has no emotions. He doesn't feel pain, suffering, or sadness. To a man who would sell his own parents for a purpose, I would be worse than a bug.
It drives me crazy that I still love and desire that person. That's why the people who loved him left. Like me......, and like his fiancee.....]
He thought of the possibility that Haewon might have seen this. Haewon must have put this note and photo in the box. Woojin frowned as he thought of that assumption. If Haewon had seen the contents, it would be a headache. He thought of what he had done when he found out about his relationship with Soyoung. Haewon tried to throw me a way, saying that it was wrong. He treated me like trash. Haewon, who had been buried like that, clung to Woojin as if it was a lie when he cleared up the misunderstanding He didn't see it. His indifferent personality towards others made him accept it, throw it away like trash, and forget about it. "You wrote down the dog's complaints with great care."
The name of the drug facepalm myself. I love the author but that felt stupidly designed un the worst way possible. If that was the reason why wait till season 2 for that reveal?! Feels stupid to wait for season 2 to figure out something as important as the name.
I can accept that silly and dumb reason for the name in a 2014-2017 w*ttpad story from some random amateur afficionado but from a author from lezhin with good works under her belt. Sorry not tolerable, it feel super weak for the plot.
