I- I need more! Why did it stop? Bring them back! They're the best couple ever! OMG I swoon for these two! I need to see them open a bakery! How do I do that??? PLEASE! There were no more chapters and now I- This needs to be READ BY EVERYONE! I actually just vanished into their love... like completely, we met them in high school and now they're working adults!

I couldn't get past chapter 3 for this one. Not only is the lead in an affair to start with, which he feels very conflicted over while his female partner seems to treat it and him like a game... The supposed romantic lead is creepily nasty. Like, casually using this information to blackmail a straight guy into dating him because the straight guy reminds him of his first boyfriend??!!! I felt so fucking sorry for the lead, like if I stopped reading it would stop getting worse for him. Tip for writers out there... Your leads romantic options should NOT feel like the rock and the hard place, at least ONE of them should be of comfort to your lead. And just general life tips. Should you find yourself in this situation, leave the affair, (you're most likely being played with), and tell the person blackmailing you to do one... THIS IS NOT ROMANTIC... CHRIST why do people think this is romantic???

I was heartbroken reading this... because "Back To School" is AMAZING. I would recommend it all day long. SAYING THAT.... This. THIS IS. Well, considering they made it Canon that Chiwoo was sexually assaulted, you don't see it in BTS but the author does confirm this. To have him asking his lover to "STOP" repeatedly and be ignored felt it undid ALL the incredible character writing of the first one. All I ever wanted for Chiwoo was for him to be happy and safe. And they took the romantic lead, who was supposed to be the romantic Antagonist's mirror image. (Has his positive traits without the negative ones), and they all but turned him into the Antagonist. Being needy, manipulative, and inconsiderate with one exception. And that's just in the first two chapters. I couldn't read on because it hurt to see everything I had loved and rooted for, undone. If you have read "Back To School" DO NOT READ THIS.

Back to School

Complete | Oryu | 2019 released

This! This is a fantastic character study... I fell in love with Chiwoo! He is a wonderful lead, he fights against his abuser, and never gives up. Surrounds himself with good people and strives forward. EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER feels real and fleshed out. Of course, there are trigger warnings, so read it if you think you can. But if you do... DO NOT READ THE SEQUAL!
