I don't think this should be labeled as romance or romanticized... I got to chapter 53 before I quit, and it was a struggle to even get that far. I'm not bashing anyone who enjoyed this, but I personally hated it. Poor Minho was raped twice so far. I get he's a pretty shit character, but that's awful. I couldn't stand to even read chapter 49. Doona is an awful person, too. I thought she was nice, but she she unapologetically raped minho, and is just a shitty person. It's good in the first few chapters, I really enjoyed it at first, but for me, it fell apart when the female lead thought rape was okay and didn't feel bad about it. I know it's not for everyone, and some people enjoy this more than i have, but this made me sick to my stomach.
