The lack of life for the confined person is realistic, im glad that it doesnt romantasize being confined and shows how mentally taxing it is. tattoos are given value and roots the character's personalities. even so, im still curious what Seung jae's original tattoo looks like. im also glad that minwook's pov is explained in the end while giving him a redemption arc to give up before the other person really kills himself.

Mitsuro is a tabloid reporter tackling a supernatural case regarding "biters". A woman was found dead, blood drained, and a bite mark on her neck. He sought for his childhood friend, Annaka, to help him with gathering information. Mitsuro suspects his friend due to his lack of alibi and the woman died within his territory. Annaka warns him to keep away from the case since he might find himself in danger. Nonetheless, Mitsuro approached the deceased victim's boyfriend, a suspect in the case. Surprisingly, the guy was a biter, and he was drawn by Mitsuro's scent. Annaka saves him, but Mitsuro was shocked to realize that he was a biter, too. Upon realizing that Mitsuro has entered Annaka's world, the former was curious and eager to learn more even if it meant satisfying Annaka's triggered bloodthirst. A simple lick turned into a hotel invitation which then became a sex-frenzy experience which soothes the blood transferring process. Feeling concerned that Annaka treats other donors the way he was treated, Mitsuro offered to being an exclusive blood donor. However, Annaka declines. In the end, the victim's boyfriend wasn't guilty and Mitsuro dropped the case. It was also meant to show Annaka that he can be trusted to keep the details confidential. However, Mitsuro knew he was still being kept in the dark and wanted to know more for himself. Out of nowhere, a biter calls him a "nectar" which fueled his curiosity about who he was and why Annaka was adamant to decline his offer to become an exclusive donor. Turns out, being an exclusive donor meant more than just feeding.

Chamin can hear the thoughts of other people except one kid, Mogyum. However, a tragic fire incident caused the child actor to forget him and retire from the acting scene. Nonetheless, the bored genius actor, Chamin, kept his prestige in hopes of Mogyum's comeback. Finally, when they became lead actors in a series, Chamin was keen on keeping Mogyum by his side. However, Mogyum's past is too complicated and dangerous which makes their relationship difficult to progress the way Chamin wants to. In the end, the incident involved Mogyum's idol, Doyoon and his stepbrother, Seungho. Not only do they endanger Chamin and Mogyum, they have a complicated relationship together. Aside from the two, a pesky photographer risks their reputation especially as an incident took away Chamin's ability. Personally, I dont need Seungho's story. More so when it was executed as if he had no crimes whatsoever.

Mc is kind, timid, and a coward. She's stuck thinking about the game and the basic trope of death flags but isn't able to fully comprehend her relationship dynamics—to be fair, she already admits to being antisocial and poor social skills. Her knowledge of the game as well isn't enough to help. Indtead, the knowledge of the game made her social skills much poorer and complicated as she denies all sorts of possessive behavior towards her, lets them push her around, and is unable to properly confront named characters from the game.
