this is one where i’ve checked out the raws because i like the novel and was curious about its manhwa adaptation once i was made aware of it… i will say its not a bad manhwa but its pacing is crazy fast so i kind of gave up on it but now that theres an actual tl it’s perhaps time to try again…

the main reason i like the novel by the way is that there are like. actual consequences for actions. this isn’t some cutesy romcom as the cover and art style might suggest it’s ultimately about a duo of childhood friends cracking apart horribly because of how one reacts to the other’s feelings for him and the ML has to take a LOT of time to try and make up for how much of an asshole he was being to the point where it actually bleeds into their relationship once they get together. he hurt his friend very badly and no amount of wanting to be close with him or apologising is not going to fix it on its own and i thought it was impressive how well the novel stuck to its guns like that.

since i stepped away from the manhwa before their fallout hit i’m curious to see how it’s portrayed!

    i don’t share links publicly so hold on let me dm it to you if you’re having trouble finding it! ^^ it goes by a different name for the novelisation (simmering heat) so that might be why it’s hard to locate

    btw for anyone going forward past this you can find the novel by searching for “simmering heat” on novelupdates and going forward with looking up the translator / site from there!

    it was TLed before the manhwa came out so there’s a name mismatch, so try “simmering heat” instead of low temp burn ^^

    he says more harsh words for sure. He doesn't wanna hurt mc but he is an idiot. But dont worry, no other future gfs for the ml. He realizes his feelings and acts pathetic soon enough. We all want a loser ML who chases mc. I'm in 2/3 into finishing the novel and this adaptation is very lacking after I read one chapter.

    i haven’t been keeping up with anything on mgg in months so i don’t know if the manhwa has covered any of this atp yet lol but the ML treats the MC VERY badly after confession point, they have a very nasty fight about it that pretty much destroys their relationship for a good chunk of the novel. no girlfriends are involved because he’s too busy sorting through his own feelings and issues. he does get very very jealous of the MC’s relationship with the sunbae as well and he is very put off by (what he correctly pinpoints as) the sunbae having feelings for the MC. which i agree with him on considering the implications the sunbae developed his crush when he was the MC’s teaching assistant in high school and he was like 22 when the MC was 17. yuck. personally i recommend the novel i like it a lot and i think it does a very good job of showcasing the lasting effects cruel behaviours can have on a person even if you didn’t intend for the consequences that occurred. like the ML has to work Very Very hard to make up for his fuckups and even after they become an item he still has to keep making up for it because in his repression + misplaced resentment towards the MC for developing feelings and “ruining” what he felt was a perfect friendship (little did he know…), he said some very cruel things. i don’t think the manhwa would be able to cover the nuance of that at the pacing i remember it going haha
