Completed

my favorite story back in the days. definitely want to reread it again some day.

couple goals; teaching readers how a normal healthy relationship should be like ;;-;;

i thought it would be full of angst, which is why i didn’t want to read it. but unexpectedly, it’s quite tame and a bit boring? still a decent read. just wish the characters would have been fleshed out more. maybe the side stories will help with that

“loving you has become an integral part of my identity”

really shows the author’s growth since their debut

Author delivered a warm and happy ending. But it also has a bittersweet yet hopeful aftertaste; maybe bc the story is rooted in the reality that gay people face… unable to come out to friends/family and unable to officially marry in their own country among other rights. Even so, I have no doubt in the MCs’ promise to stay by each other’s side forever

was on my ‘To read’ list for a while. only regret is that i didn’t read this sooner

i can see myself reading this manhwa a 2nd/3rd/4th/5th/ … time. it’s such an underrated gem: no true villains, awesome plot, character growth, lovable characters

i esp love the cousin’s ending. it’s rare in BL series for a character to acknowledge that he needs to work on himself before starting a serious relationship.

read on bato for consistency

great in some aspects, lacking in others

the handling of the uncomfortable sex was *mua* (so few BL are willing to confront that)
