Was so relieved this was NOT a shota, and the story was actually really cute.
The Perfect Relationship
Suki ni Nacchau yo.
On Doorstep
Jimmy, a small-time thief, is caught pickpocketing by a middle-aged guy named Reese. Instead of handing him over to the police, Reese makes him slog hard for a day at the book store where he works. Wanting to get back at the other man for humiliating him, Jimmy breaks into Reese's apartment, only to find evidence that he's a retired cop. A bit spooked now, he leaves in a hurry, determined to put it all behind him and carry on as usual. ----------- Gosh it's too short! I would've loved to read more on these two, I loved their dynamic. And the Art is topnotch too! Such a shame it was this short. Still very enjoyable as it is, but I'd have liked more on this story.
Lover Boy
Eunho, the little neighbor boy that always asked Jaeha to marry him is all grown up now. Jaeha never gave little Eunho a second thought until one day, years later, Eunho suddenly reinserts himself into Jaeha’s life. Will Eunho forever be the little neighbor boy to Jaeha? Or will Jaeha finally see Eunho for the man he’s now become? ---------- The plot's a really interesting one, the Art's pretty and the characters are all interesting to follow. I can't stop to say just how refreshing it is whenever I read a story where the third man of the story isn't unnecessarily made into an *sshole. Hanjun's character is a very interesting and loyal one. I really appreciated how upfront and earnest he was in this story. He obviously had feelings for Jaeha for a very long time, yet he respected his boundaries, as well as his feelings for Eunho. We seriously need more secondary characters like him in stories. Jaeha's character is also a very fascinating one. His personality's a very complex one, and seeing his growth as it is being influenced by Eunho was truly intriguing. Eunho's character's also a pretty intriguing one. And I really like his personality shifts, and how he can go from seeming simple-minded, to being really serious and intense. Also, lots of consensual action in this one. Can't get enough of that. Give me more of those healthy and well-developed relationships. I am, though, very disappointed that the end was cut-short. I was looking forward to seeing the build-up from the moment when they got back together, to breaking the news to Eunho's family, especially since I felt like it'd be very moving and positive... And... The wedding! The whole story was based on that. How am I supposed to feel like this was complete with only a few snippets here and there?
