Yaoi Autism at its finest (my current review of this manhwa)

Towayaoi February 9, 2026 5:40 pm

Bare with me for a sec this is gonna be long...So for starters, im autistic as fuck about yaoi and love hyperanalizing plots and the mysteries of them. This one in particular has not left my brain for weeks (probably months at this point) and its honestly concerning LOL i have deadass read it 7 times over(while it updates). Everytime i read it i find something new to fixate over and I am just to the point of accepting that this is now my fav manhwa ever(at least for right now) I find mysepf relating to both chaejun and seung hyeon in different ways, I too have severe insomnia issues due to unresolved childhood trauma (not as bad as him now tho thankfully. I HAVE gone without sleep for more than 5 days in the past tho.) and crippling anxiety with ocd. They both leave me feeling SO seen and it just FUELS my curiosity for whats to come!! So far from what ive pieced together, chaejun got into a terrible accident/incident when he was a kid involving a room with a bed and the smell of the tree oil thing seung hyeon has might have something to do with what i believe to be a sexual trauma. It is only my theory but I almost hope thats what it is(not that i want chaejun to suffer) because it would make SO much sense why chaejun is triggered into a really intense dissociative state after smelling that uniform and the oil. If the author doesnt make it that way its ok, its only what i thought would be super interesting and also, so so sad. I love the way this manhwa is both so hilarious but also so serious at the same time. It has serious topics that I love to see, neurodivergence and childhood trauma. Insomnia being the biggest premise of the story is really what made me stay since its been a huge part of my life for like? the entirety of it? LOL and side from that I ADORE the authors art and the smut is fantastic, thats a given. Their intimacy is so good, from the way they talk to eachother to how they fuck. chaejun making space for seung hyeon who never had space made for him is so fucking sweet and adoring, as seung hyeon had mentioned, their relationship went FULL SPEED AHEAD from the start but its because of how compatible they were... One idiot supporting the other. and yes they had miscommunication issues but i find it endearing and pretty realistic for the way their stupid lil brains work. They just care too much about eachother and it shows. Seung hyeons brother actually reminds me of my own older sister so much, overprotective and treats me like a child at my big age (im literally 28 bruh) I cant be mad at his behavior bc i KNOW this is how an older sibling will react when concerned, specially when he literally had to raise him as a baby for some time cause their parents are actual fucking garbage. Like ofc his behavior is unacceptable and he should not be controlling his grown younger brother like that but I know from where it comes from and it just makes so much sense. I dont know where else to turn for discussing this manhwa bc theres a surprising lack of ppl who like it in the way that I do and as popular as it is, its still pretty unpopular.(my proof is the SPAKLZ COMET mv comment section lacking ANY support for my mans seung hyeon smh smh ima be loud as fuck about him) its consumed my soul and thats ok. I love stories like this that literally keep me up at night thinking about them...(haha... insomnia....) I KNOW there are manhwas out there better than this one, I KNOW it has its flaws bit like WHO CARESSS i love things with flaw, its alot more human to me. i am a huge fan of terribly written stories personally(not to say this one is, bc its actually quite good) and i really do not care anymore if someone hates or has distaste for anything i like anymore HAH. Unsleep takes up atleast 60% of my brain rn. I own all the official photocards and a small ita purse with them as decoration :3 I also, when the right inspiration hits, will be drawing SOOO much fanart, as i already have made a single doodle... when unsleep is concluded i will be so upset honestly bc then the weekly excitement will fade and ill likely find another manhwa to hyperfix over. (it happend with All For Me, my guilty pleasure) anyway this is alot of words that no ones even gonna read so im stopping here. I hope someone out there loves it as much as me(literally impossible bc. autistic) bc i would enjoy talking about it for hours if given the opportunity.
