"When he was just a student, Soohyun, ranked second, felt envious of the perfect Eunsung. Although he tried catching Eunsung, his soul aflame with passion, it wasn’t enough, and he lost all his motivation upon graduation. As time passed, Soohyun forgot everything. However, when he saw Eunsung collapse for the first time, he felt extreme pleasure. With his obsession for Eunsung rekindling, he has a desire to see him fall even further in-front of him..." ✰ Enemies to Lovers ⤷ [9.6] OH MY GODDDD YOU FR PUT ME ON I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT TO READ THIS!!!!! they are soooo fking cute omg!!! the way eunsung looks at soohyun had me SQUEELING! HE'S SO IN LOVE! The art is so good and some of the skinship scenes were so unique. i love those little details rather than them just going to pound town every 2 pages "enemies" to lovers, slow burn / emotional development, strong uke with a dead gaze, puppy seme, dramatic-ass "who did this to you" scenes...bro this had everything i love. only reason it doesn't get full points is bc i feel like the plot was wrapped up a lil too quickly/simply, and the plot felt a little unrealistic at times, but this type of shady/exploitative shit really does happen IRL, so i guess maybe seeing the behind the scenes made it hard to comprehend how it was going on all that time. yeah i could read 500 more chapters of them being in love UGH!!! trope: hate but has always been in love subconsciously
