from the first time we found out she was sick, in the two years i waited, it never crossed my mind Ssamba would die, i always thought she would just get better. When the update came up saying she had passed a part of my heart broke, i never realized how much this story meant to me, how much a strangers death could mean. She was real, a living person who created something beautiful, and now she was just gone. I keep coming back here, i think a part of will always be reaching out to her and this story, i imagine she felt a great pain not being able to give us a finish to their story. I hope people will continue to always love the work she left us with.

see i thought it was the teacher since it was at first giving off the vibe it was going to be the childhood best friend and they were gonna do an obvious reveal of it not being him, i thought it was gonna be cliche. but now it seems like a lot more is going on. like i loved how the "A" note was explained by how her and the science teacher passed notes and how the mc was like "whats so good about him" about the cold childhood friend, she's very realistic in my opinion and i like how she's trying to make it work with her boyfriend and doesn't just seem to be leading him on. im excited to know who "A" is and what happened between her, the science, teacher, childhood friend and boyfriend and if in the end if she'll even care and just decide to do and pick someone new.

[spoilers]
okay so ive read up to chapter 19, and like damnnnn. this story is so captivating and chilling, i havent read something so interesting in a while.
its the opposite of Stockholm syndrome since Bum already loved sangwoo, and he now finds out he is this crazy guy and we see this battle he is having with himself,like he can stay and risk being hurt and killed but he'll be with this guy that he had loved for so long or he can go and be free but to what life? he has no friends and was being abused by his uncle. it's amazing to see his both want and will to survive and escape and at the same time how he might descend into madness with sangwoo.
i think Sangwoo is becoming obsessed with yoonbum, its not love but he does love to toy around with him, and now he has made him his partner in crime, he doesn't want to let go of bum and now he has manipulated him to kill, this in a way has chained bum to him and that house forever.
the whole story has this eerie and chilling feel to it. and that scene when bum opens the door after deciding to escape and Sangwoo is siting there, waiting for him, listening to that song... god it felt like out of a movie, the reader wants him to escape they are cheering him on to just go and after he finally opens the door your heart feels with dread when you realise it was a trap (although i had suspected he was sitting out there since he hadn't taken the umbrella, still an exhilarating scene)
it's an amazing physiological-thriller story, and i cant wait for the next chapter

You don't think Sangwoo is in love with him in his own twisted way? He's yet to kill him despite all his other captives dying within like a day, He basically starts crying when he thinks Bum ran away, he actually fuckin' BLUSHES when Bum rubs their semen together and says he wishes they could be together like that, he SPARES Bum after the whole "I'm leaving!" scene (can you state a single person he's had patience with?). Even in this latesty chapter i'm pretty sure he is literally proposing to Bum in his own creepy way, like you say it'll keep Bum chained to him and he calls it their anniversary. He's definitely in love in my book, but an obsessive love as he is sick.

what i only just realised on one of my many re-reads is in chapter 4 after reading the authors note that all of the narration with the black box outlines are done by Momoya (black haired boy) even the ones at the start, he was the one saying he wanted to be noticed by her, that he still had a long way to go and he was the one saying it was a small miracle when she talked to him. i think it made it all a little sadder and knowing that he had loved her for as long as she had loved her sensei. i really really love this manga i think all the stories are amazing and the characters and love feel real

okay but like when it said he packed everything, not leaving a single thing behind, it really just hurt my heart that little more when i though about how he said previously he left lots of stuff at his old house (with his dad and mum) because he thought that they'd bring it to him or he'd go back. and now he's just taken it all and isn't even thinking of going back

I fear lest Junhyuk might try to flee even farther than that and accept his father's offer (about America).
i hope the teacher saves her
