I love this manhwa. It's such a treasure to find in the Korean bl manhwas. It is rivals to friends to lovers type and they do it so well. No toxicity just friends turning into lovers that's just so sweet as it should. The I would die for you and the I live for you trope is used well, especially looking at how their relationship grew as they spent 10 yrs with each other, it's goodd!!! Waiting for the side stories! Spoiler story summary: Haon met Gon when they were young, his father had brought him and made him stay in their academy. The two spent each other as enemies then rivals and then friends that truly trust each other, soon their relationship started to change with they lent a helping hand (ahem ahem sexually) to each other. The two started to fall for each other. Gob was keeping a secret and was planning to leave secretly but he had stayed for a bit for Haon. Everything was okay until one day the academy was attacked and Haon saved Gon which led him to fall on a cliff and stuck on this cave. Gob thought Haon died. Haon was forced to learn the teaching of a master before able to leave the cave so he spent the next ten years stuck, until he mastered and left. He then joined the high lord of murim to avenge on his family. The alleged culprit of the murder was the cult and he fughted against them when he met the well known leader which was Gon. That's when the two reunited and had a talk again after their pretend fight. The two's relationship ended with helping each other as their romance takes on another level. Gon feels happy and grateful for Haon's survival and the two found a new will to live for each other. The truth behind the massacre was that the high lord was the one who orchestrated it and the cult was framed causing the war. Gon wanted revenge for that and also for his mother. The fact was that Gon was the high lord's son and the high lord murdered his mother causing Gon to feel and met Haon's father. After having many ppl on their side, they finally succeeded in exposing the high lord and Gon kills him, finding liberation. The two then decided to travel and live together. Really really love their relationship, very natural and very heart warming. They really feel like friends to lovers. Reminds me of danmei. Even though the sub plot of murim genre didn't reach the level of danmei's with how detailed and complex they are, this manhwa still did a good job entertaining me. The huge catch us the main couple so I say it's worth it.

One way to describe this story is that it is creepy and disturbing but also hauntingly captivating. The story telling is also very good. Though the story itself is terrifying. And I believe the paneling of the author gives this story what it needs. I've been a fan of their and story telling from their previous works and this is the same. I don't like the main couple because of the age gap but also how seme is pedophilic but their scenes were intense and very sensual you could feel uke's sensuality through the panels. And honestly, it was a good read but I'm not hoping for the ending to be satisfying as I want front eh ending I've heard. Tbh if I was given a twisted choice for an ending, it would be that the main couple doesn't end up and that the brothers get obsessed with each other (not saying sexually) but that they would instead fill each other's hole(like what missing in their lives not their a**). Honestly, the semes don't deserve the uke in this story . Summary spoiler: Too long for me to write hahaha I hope I can write some day but too lazy for now hahaha

Oh Thai was so sweet
