Myeong-il has always had an affinity for Heonjae not out of affection but pity, he views him as someone docile & in need of his help to "improve". However he does prefer Jingi in a lot of senses that will be revealed in some later chapters, like how he's able to hold banter with him that he just can't with Heonjae.

Can someone tell me why the MC is leaning towards the white hair guy and kind of avoiding the brown hair guy?
