The story started out really good, premise was really good and there was such good tension between Taemin and Woojin; plus you do naturally always root for a character that seems to be an underdog or a character that's very feisty and can actually back up their own claims. Now, here lies the problem with this manhwa: the fricking ending. It fell really flat for me and it personally pointed out a lot of flaws to me regarding the character development, because objectively, it did wrap up the whole issue that the characters had; they were finally able to catch the person behind all of Siwon's (not Taemin) anguish (although was he really held accountable with real-life consequences?). In my opinion, I think it was because there wasn't an adequate villain/antagonist. I think Joohoon had great potential for this, he holds more of a threat as compared to Jiwook that's just a bad person and a loser? Yes, even if he drove his own brother to his death. To me, his whole character was so surface-level especially towards the end, this is the same with Woojin in the ending too, like he was just invincible, which wasn't fun either btw. And that panel where Woojin was talking to his dying brother, like we been knew this was all for him so it's not like that was a crazy revelation. Ending aside, I still liked the whole storytelling and dialogue though it's really just the ending that drove me crazy.
