. . . . . When i first heard that there were only a few chapters left, I already knew Junseo would not be the end game. However, the final chapter being disappointing is an understatement. While I don't expect Jaewon to suddenly change his mind and end with Junseo, I was expecting a final wrap up towards Junseo story. Perhaps an insight to what he thinks and learns from a second broken love, or a moral message behind the story.
What we get though, is well, almost nothing. He was given zero dialogue, and pretty much an afterthought. It is like the author also does not know how to wrap up Junseo story. If that is the case, then why bother making Junseo liking Jaewon in the first place? I don't understand. Even the third wheel of shoujo manga normally gets better treatment than this. Junseo, arguably has way more story, development and interaction with Jaewon than anyone else in the story. Not to mention, he is the only character where we get to see his point of view outside of Jaewon. He is more of a deuteragonist than a third wheel, and yet, he is given a treatment worst than a side character. (Case in point, Hanjun from Lover Boy gets a better resolution than this...)
Unless the author is planning an epilogue, or better yet, a sequel that could properly wrap up Junseo story, then honestly, this story, as cute as the journey is, is terribly planned, where the end really undermines the journey.
P.S. I am not upset, just a disappointed reader, since it has so much potential. Maybe I should take solace that the series at least did not jump the shark the way A Man Like You is. Oh well... ╮(￣▽￣)╭
