I love the original novels and am so excited for the manhwa [Spoilers for the story]

I'm going to give some aspects of the story because I want people to give the manhwa a chance. Hopefully the manhwa author doesn't change it too much and keeps the core aspects the same.

- The MC and ML settle MC's unrequited love for ML really early in the story (MC confesses, ML rejects him) but there are no hard feelings because MC always expected the rejection and ML still wants MC to be an important part of his life, so the two stay friends.
- MC never wishes that ML would "choose him". He is a simple guy that just enjoys seeing him in person and seeing him happy. He can't even imagine ML ever loving him back
- ML's friends get together officially, and ML accepts his long-running unrequited crush is over. There is no more actual romance drama between the 4 characters, as they all become good friends.
- ML and MC become best friends, and ML starts falling for MC really hard. He is down bad for him like crazy, but MC is such a precious friend to him that he holds back those feelings
- MC doesn't know about ML's feelings, and mistakenly thinks ML is sad about his friends getting together. In reality, ML's over it and is sad about the feelings for MC he is struggling to hold back
- ML and MC do get together, and being by each other's side is the "place to be" where they both belong

Other notes:
- MC is a pure, impossibly kind and selfless angel who never feels greedy or entitled to anything. (This Inseop from Love History Caused by Willful Negligence, but less pathetic)
- ML's love for MC turns him into a pathetic, possessive dude (and a bit of a yandere) but he does ask for consent. Though, he's pushy the first time because his feelings are so strong
- The story is a slow burn. The novels are 3 books and they don't have sex until 1/3 into the 3rd book

    He did in the past, but he doesn’t do it in the story anymore. There is one spicy scene in 5 chapters between MC and ML which is when ML starts physically desiring MC, and from that point on ML starts having wet dreams about MC. ML just thinks he’s pent up and tries hooking up with other people, but he can’t get it up. We don’t see those scenes with ML, he accidentally drunkenly confesses what’s going on to MC and his ex-crush friend but MC starts thinking ML has erectile dysfunction lmao
