i get the person who said theres no substance, because it doesnt have a very profound story--which is fine, its simply just cute!
garam is a typical result of what happens when you lack parental love. hes annoying, bitter but TRIES to hide it, and emotionally manipulative. i would go as far to say that he might have a tinge of BPD(borderline personality disorder). but seeing him and jaehyung was kind of refreshing, especially because he mentioned that he sought out to top everyone as a way to protect his pride and conquest others. seeing him be vulnerable made me satisfied lol.
on the flip side, the age thing is a bit weird yes, but juho is a grown ahh man and tbh having crushes on older neighbors are pretty normal? hoyoon expressing "delayed guilt" abt their age diff is better than glossing over it....the only thing fundamentally and logically wrong about age gaps is power and maturity imbalances that come from being older, and considering that juho isnt being pressured or manipulated by hoyoon, i dont really see a major issue. there are wayyyy worse age gaps manhwas out there so its not as bad in comparison.
theres definitely loose ends here and there, but the 8.8 rating did surprise me. no way theres a 0.1 star rating difference between this and jinx the story is fairly mild, which was a nice change of pace after the copious amounts of drama/angst stories out there.
