Rereading some earlier chapters, I get more chills from Heonjae. Jingi is horrible and outwardly shows that he knows it (still chilling ofc)—but Heonjae almost seems to do horrible things thinking there’s nothing wrong with them—only deterred by the possibility that it may make people he cares about hate him. Like, he does not care if it’s immoral as long as it doesn’t lose him anything vs Jingi who still sucks, but somehow still seems to have more potential to change. No use in comparing bad with bad but I thought it was an interesting thought.
Somehow I feel like if the cover had these two on it instead and if we started the story with them, it wouldn’t have been all that different from other BLs out there…

I absolutely agree. I would not feel like I'd be able to reason with him if he snapped in an emotional meltdown. He's a loose cannon
