Okay no one asked but here are my nuanced thoughts on this.

I think that this manhwa is catering towards a specific audience, hence why there is still a majorly positive rating despite the content. MLM and WLW, MLM more often, have the tendency to dabble into step-bro, step-sis, etc. content. If that's your thing, then you do you and I can see that some people feel like that's more 'exciting' (not my cup of tea but not everyone drinks the same blend.) The author never intended to make it an actual love triangle imo. MC very clearly was never into the 2nd ML and it showed. 2nd ML was only supposed to act as a plot device to accelerate the relationship between ML and MC. It's rather unfortunate because the minimal development, we saw from 2nd ML was interesting and I would have loved to see 1. the MC choose the 2nd lead and 2. a relationship that wasn't purely sparked through lust.

Next to my stance on the relationships in this manhwa. It can definitely be argued that both ML found love in the MC because of lust, however, I would argue that the 1st ML is a more empirical example of this issue. 1st ML fell for his future sibling's looks, messed around and ended up sleeping with him. All the love came from the psychological attraction from being sexually connected in such a vulnerable way, especially because MC and 1st ML are characters who avoid showing vulnerability (thus, 1st ML lashes out or MC distances himself away). 2nd ML also ended up falling for MC because of a physical relationship but I think that the connection between the two felt more natural (and obviously not taboo). The progression between hate, to curiosity, to potentially something more was a little rushed but it felt more solidified, to me. Especially because MC and 1st ML were either banging or arguing 24/7, I found more dialogue- at least casual one (because relationships should not revolve around the other person [imo]), to be from 2nd ML and MC.

As for whether or not I believe the relationship is taboo, it absolutely is. They were introduced as potential siblings- to be family from the start. Even if they are not blood related, their proximity and the inevitable declaration (that both of them knew about) that they would legally become siblings was something both of them knew about. Nevertheless, they had a romantic and heavily sexual relationship since they were young all the way up to their early/mid 20s. They were 100000% aware that their relationship is taboo- so I'm sorry to any defenders who are saying that it's not taboo, because it definitely is.

Anyways, 2/5 stars. I don't recommend.

I was reading this on my laptop and I am so invested in them that I straight up turned my laptop on its side in the middle of lecture to read those text messages </3

Anyways I love both of them sm ╥﹏╥

can i just push them both off a cliff?

I wish I went back in time 5 minutes ago and hadn't read this. That was... something (⊙…⊙ )

I'm just as confused as everyone else. Idek how the relationships work in this story. Is it a polyamory relationship or two different relationships, or what?
