Soohan Woo
Taeyul Ki
Sungjoon Yoon
Shihyuk Han
The creator of Totally Captivated did it again... a heartwretching story of love so drastic, that if you don't have it, everything falls apart..
I'm kinda sad that Yoon Sungjoon didn't really get a happy ending... he continues to live with a woman that tried to sabotage him, tho she does love him enough to not want him trapped and suffering, while he secretly still loves his male lover.. Tho I don't agree with how he treated Soohan Woo like a naive child who knows nothing, but I guess it worked. They were very cute together, and it's clear from the extra. You kinda question throughout the series whether Sungjoon truly even loved Soohan, but it's later proven that he does, but just has too much riding on the line. Soohan is such a baby.... He has so much trauma from always somehow ending up with straight guys, that when Taeyul Ki rocked up with being mildly homophobic but loving him, he was constantly doubting their relationship and whether it would even last.. but I'm glad Taeyul put aside his own beliefs and loved Soohan well. Kinda mad that Taeyul never brought up that he may have cheated on Soohan (tho he didn't actually sleep with Shihyuk; but he doesn't know that....), just feels like they bypassed that idk..
Taeyul was such a green flag at the start with being so accepting of Soohan, and giving him the love and appreciation he deserves when he had hit such a low... Taeyul managed to pick Soohan back up and shower him with the love that he previously wasted on someone else who didn't appreciate it, and Soohan wanted someone who would openly show affection as did he. But he slowly began to became a slightly tinted green when he locked Soohan up. I know it was to protect him, but they kinda bypassed that he also did that for his previous partner too, unprompted... he clearly has a passed with being a controlling and obsessive boyfriend, and I know it's cute in a manhwa, but it gives a bit of a sour taste in my mouth too that they kinda just said "oop- well he did it cus he wants to protect him", when in actuality it was also because he didn't want Soohan seeing Sungjoon too. He's a murky green flag by the end, but I'm glad they worked out.
but either way, it was a cute read. Kinda took a bit long to get to it, but I'm never disappointed when the author is the author of my favourite BL.
