Yeah, I kinda get you. He's so different than the Ricky in main plot but honestly, that's just because he was mostly there at a surface level. The story took weird turns later on that sort of pushes him to the side for the sake of how the main story plot kept on unfolding. It only makes sense we see Ricky in a different light here in this side story because he's much more fleshed out and I really like that because I will take him over that ugly bald old fart or that guy who's literally called a professional rapist

yall... I might as well just forget about everything that happened in the original plot but it wouldn't hit the same. Seeing Ricky go from that insane psychotic mess to this obsessed yearning man is GOLD. Hojoong is also babygirl as ever This is SOOO my to 3 BL I swear to god
