Addiction
There are two problematic things with this story; the beginning and the end. I liked how the story developed but at the beginning it really made no sense at all. It wasn’t really shown how the seme developed his feelings towards the uke, to me most of his words sounded like excuses he used to win the uke over since he actually did fall in love with him at some point and didn’t want to lose him because of his sick alpha wolf mind games. The ending between the main couple is perfect but it’s totally unsatisfying for the secondary couple that had SO MUCH potential. The manhwa ended without revealing whether the second uke has feelings towards the second seme or he’s just fucking with him while being in love with the first uke instead. I’d like a spin-off about them.

I loved how their story developed naturally and they eventually grew up together. Their latest discussion was really heart-clenching because it highlighted realistic dynamics commonly happening to couples of coworkers and the MCs eventually managed to resolve the whole situation really maturely: they didn’t act aggressively towards each other, nor spit bitter words of repressed frustration, but decided to keep their distances to compose themselves and then talk it out once they felt that their feelings were finally soothed and sorted out. Stella is a great character, very sassy and determined, such a powerful woman!! I wish I could read more about Bell (amazing friend, I love him), Lucas (Barney Stinson 2.0 lol) and Koo Taesung and Yoo Jiwon. Director Yoo definitely had some unresolved (probably) romantic feelings towards director Koo. I would have loved to see the romantic development between them.
