Love or Hate(Yeongha)
Oh god this is so frustrating. There is so much that I don't like about the whole story but the worst of it all have to be the characters. The whole relationship between the uke and the step-brother is so bad that I don't even know where to start. First of all, they shouldn't have even done the things they did knowing that they are step-brothers, which is disgusting. Also, when the mother found out about it and told them off, they should have ended it right there but they didn't and the fault mostly lies on the psycho step-brother since he was the one who started it and kept going after his brother even after they got found out. I hate the step-brother with a passion because he was so thirsty for his brother and didn't stop even when his parents and classmates found out about it. On the other hand, he doesn't have the courage to confess to him and become lovers and instead half-asses it even after they are no longer brothers, like if any, that was his chance to get together with him. He has some nerve to tell the uke to not fall in love with when he is the one manipulating him and keeping him tied to him. What the hell is wrong with the uke though? I understand that his first love is his brother but when you know that he is going to treat you like shit and you are going to only feel hurt in the end, why do you keep thinking about wanting to be with him, especially when you have someone who actually love you? Taku, the photographer, is the only one I like in this story and the uke deserves to be with him instead of the manipulative psycho step-brother. If the uke doesn't end up with the photographer, I am really going to hate this story even more because it will become another one of the cliches where the bad guy who has done the things that deserves him to get arrested ends up getting a happy ending. Dropped it because it no longer interested me and the guy ended up with the step-brother, which is the worst choice.
