The ML is really patient and love that for him. Personally I don't like MC that much coz I also don't have the same patience as ML have and I've been out since I was a kid and grew up fine (Obviously there's bullying here and there but it's not so hard that I've lived a bad life, I'm lucky) and I think MC just have to open himself even if it's slow and not keep pushing away ML like bruhhhh ML isn't gonna do everything for you if you wanna be in a relationship especially in public
From what I can see, during season 2, MC can be very communicative but only in private settings when it’s just the two of them, so that’s why I’d still give him some credit, but then again he wouldn’t have the courage to do so if it hadn’t been for ML. MC’s lucky af he had strucked for a golden boy.
I just hope that we won’t have to wait for too long for MC to get his shit together and be the more active one in the relationship and stop making ML going through this insane patience is virtue test _(:3 」∠)_.
Hoping for fast progress from MC and also hoping that ML wouldn't be such a good boy that he will do everything even if it hurts their relationship just because MC said so.
Chapter 33! Guys when the comic comes back you just have to be patient for another 3 chapters!
And now I will now enter slight rant territory:
(Btw my Korean is not the best so there may be some inaccuracies to how I feel about the currently ongoing second season but I feel like it’s still somewhat justified thanks to the sentiments of the Korean comments.)
It’s great that they get together right at the beginning of season 2, but I won’t lie I still feel frustrated towards the MC reading season 2. Season 2 is not complete yet so things may change and there is plenty of 18+ scenes, so take my words with a grain of salt. And since it’s mostly MC’s perspective, I get why MC acts the way he does but goddamn the saving grace of this relationship is ML and the only good part about the relationship is the ML.
Even though they officially became a couple with much deliberation from the MC at the beginning of season 2, MC still ends up saying things that is hurtful to both the MC themselves and the ML because of his fears. MC is trying to change but honestly if it wasn’t for ML god level patience and understanding of MC’s character, this relationship probably wouldn’t have lasted. At some point when ML’s friends probes on the topic of romantic relationships, MC suddenly says that ML is meeting a girl and that confuses the fuck out of the friends because ML already came out as gay. Like bro, your man already came out and now you are trying to say he’s not what he says he is in front of his friends who have already wholly accepted his sexuality??? Like the Ml already reassured you that at least with these two specific friends it would be okay. When I saw that scene I literally thought: no matter how much you feared exposure of your relationship isn’t that too much? But I think this is probably a common response living in a conservative society, and ML being the patient and understanding guy that he is wasn’t offended and they ended the chapter with the two of them secretly holding hands. At least afterwards they do communicate and have sex so that’s fine and all but goddamn if it was your typical person and not the saint like ML this relationship would’ve ended with a fight.
MC isn’t a bad character since a lot of his fears is understandable in a conservative society like South Korea, but maybe because I don’t have saint like patience like ML, I sometimes feel like ML kind of deserved better than having to constantly wait for MC only to hear hurtful things MC says out of fear in a public setting. And obviously they are end game so I just hope that after the newer raw chapters come out we’d be able to see the MC doing more of the work for once when he becomes less scared, but I guess that’s only going to happen after ML puts in a tremendous amount of effort first to reassure MC…
Currently the most recent update is chapter 43 and there’s a new plot obstacle coming up with a bit of an LDR. Naturally things will change and apparently the novel was good albeit cutting a few details, so I shall be patient, and hope that later on in the relationship ML won’t have to work too hard anymore for their relationship to work out.
