so good! i think it was a little slow in the middle, especially w the main couple w jaerim rejecting yuri and the whole ex prez arc bc it got repetitive, but before and after that whole section, it was really really good! i actually really liked the side couples, though ik a lot of people didnt like them. tbh they were very complex, and thats what made them so good despite still somewhat unrealistic. the first side couple resolved their issues too quickly imo, but their fluff was so cute that i wish we got more of them. the second one w the ex prez and vice prez is the only frustrating one bc we never got a proper conclusion or even understanding of their relationship. i really liked aerak and heeno, even if their relationship was built on one-sided resentment and trauma. it really made me think abt how i would feel if i was in aeraks position, and i only grew to love them to this extent in the very last panel of the the very last chapter, i adored it. fuck that random bitch and fuck her henchman too idc. i dont think he raped jaerim but i think he unquestionably assaulted him. the main couple were great - again it was so slow at the beginning but i really enjoyed seeing jaerim slowly fall in love and yuri get over his demons. the art is really pretty and there were so many hilarious reactions from all the characters. the art is what made it what it is and also - no wonky translations!! its rare but truly a gift i didnt know was so satisfying. ALSO - i was expecting some smut damn. i realize that though i dont like when the plot is 50% smut, i do enjoy a pinch of it in every story. it wouldve been nice to see yuri and jaerim, especially bc he was assaulted :( i'll always love pure angst and fluff too tho. the message was really good and deep too. i really enjoyed it and i think i might reread, maybe? no real urgency but it was a fun time! 9/10
