i really wish i liked this more, but it's hard when it's this obvious that the author likes taebum so much more than they do hoyeon next to taebum, hoyeon really lacks any real or distinct personality outside of the ego he's built up around the kind of sex he likes to have. chapters that could have been spent developing hoyeon's character and feelings towards taebum were instead spent on taebum getting toyed with or whatever, and i'm definitely not against reading stories where it's clear the author just wants to draw the couple having a lot of sex, but if you're going to include some plot in it, you should care about developing both leads to a somewhat equal amount.
even now with the end of the 1st season, i am honestly still not sure what taebum likes so much about hoyeon because he did not treat him well and at best he was just a pretty and nice guy back when he was a high schooler. it's also unclear what hoyeon really likes about taebum and what made him change his mind about him beyond "i shouldn't push him away and treat him like this because he likes me." as the audience, we find taebum very lovable, but we only see hoyeon's apprehension towards him most of the time, and we don't really see when or even if he'll change his mind about him. he just decides to stop stringing him along and chooses to treat him better almost on a whim. and seeing the ex pop back up to inevitably cause artificial drama between them when they still aren't exactly together yet is not inspiring feelings of confidence in me that this will get better, but i'll wait and see i guess
