This isn't really a necessary comment but in chp 17 Taejun uses a fancy lighter. I recognized it as a S.T. Dupont lighter because of a reel I ran across recently. When I tell you that this brand of lighters range from a couple hundred to thousands and thousands of dollars. I'm so gagged at the needlessly expensive bs that rich ppl buy. This particular lighter he has I can see ranges from abo 400 to 1300 dollars (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
Fun short read that's kinda fluffy teeny tiny bit angsty(kinda superficially)
Kinda spoiler but not really
Last thought for this would be that I wasn't really on board with the final scene of them pretty much kidnapping a teenager to drop him off into the school. I really liked the part of the story where the mc was a full grown adult who had at least SOME life experience
I'll always prefer officials over other translations(specially mtl) but the officials have his term of endearment as "Boy" and the fan translation has it as "Puppy". I def prefer puppy over boy. Like I can kind of get it in the terms of dog ownership calling ur dog "boy" lovingly but it's super weird in an actual relationship
Though I also prefer puppy over boy, this reminds me of the discussion that crops up every now and then about doing away with boyfriend/girlfriend and replacing them with another word like datemate; it is a bit catchy.
But I have given it way too much thought and have come to the conclusion that when using boy or girl in romantic situations or in friendships, what you're really saying is the person makes you feel young, happy, and carefree, harkening back to how you felt in a time where you had less responsibilities as well. Springtime, in more poetic terms. This couple does fall into this season of love but because of all the hanky panky, I view it more as a summer glow, you know?
I got through 20 chapters and it just isn't keeping me interested. I have no prob with the top omega X bottom alpha dynamic. I think that's super fun. Jaeyeon just doesn't do it for me as a character. It's not even his appearance that's the issue(tho I'm annoyed af that an aspiring hair stylist has a head of hair that looks like he got trapped in a wood chipper!!! They even cut it and it looks the freaking same!!) but his personality that's such a downer for me. Cute puppy top can be so good if it's done well but Jaeyeon just isn't quite right











I'm well aware of the chokehold this has had on everyone for the past few years. I truly enjoyed it. The drama at times had me double fisting popcorn! Man do I miss the excitement of the early chapters! That being said it really did feel like it went a little too long. It drug out some people's suffering way too much and threw in random ppls side stories that really didn't do much to the story as a whole other than padding the chapter count. I read the novel to a point and even then I felt like there was just so much unnecessary extra. That being said I think ill go re-read the beginning again cuz that's where all the juicy bits were ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
