It's genuinely confusing because he seems so uninterested even besides wanting to please Hyun, I honestly have never read about asexual characters but with the kind of expectations this manhwa has and with that "provocative" cover, it seems weird that the author would end up making her MC be asexual after all. I'm not complaining about it, it's just that the direction of the manhwa (marketing and promises for the +18 version) is clashing with what we're shown.
My theory if Baekya ends up not being asexual, is that that all the stress he has about having sex to keep his relationship (since he thinks Hyun will break up with him if they didn't do it) is making him forget that he's supposed to enjoy himself. He's so focused on pleasing Hyun that he's ignoring his own pleasure. Basically he's thinking way too much during the act.
I mean he could be asexual or on the spectrum of asexuality but still have sex. Lots of asexual people still have sex even if they don’t experience sexual attraction. I agree it seems like he’s doing it all in service of Hyun rather than it coming from his own interest. I’m hoping whether he is ace or not, Baekya can find a way to enjoy himself and they can come to an understanding where they are both happy. This is only their first time after all!
Has anyone else wondered if Baekya may be on the aroace spectrum? I’m not on the aroace spectrum so I don’t wanna assume, but I’m noticing some signs
