can't disagree with the comedy aspect of the manhwa and the novel. can't say that about the ML. idk what the author is thinking but director guk isn't likeable or endearing. there're are shameless characters that you'd find funny or root for, he ain't it. there's crumbs of romantic scenes between him and MC where you'd momentarily forget about his trashy character, he's still keeping up to his namesake. i continued with the novel until volume 6 and i'm still waiting for some character development for director guk. he's got sex for brains. he's only told by his mother in the latter part of volume 5 and first chapter of volume 6 that he should treat MC with restraint, not act overly jealous and not be horny. well, he's portrayed as an animal - saying he's got good instincts.
reading about him made me reevaluate my taste in literature. because a lot of MLs are like him selfish and doesn't listen to the MC and only thinks about doing it with him, gets jealous easily, irrational. and embarassing it is to admit i did enjoy those before. now it gives me the ick. no offense but it's like the ML in y/n novels or like the cringey characters in the novel by the MC.
all in all if we're only looking at the comedy tag it fits. if you're looking for depth it's there in bits and pieces but it's overshadowed by the joke of a relationship between MC and ML. ML might have a character development or may not ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭

i'm fine even if BL isn't explicit or if there are no seggs in it at all. but this is one of the few works that i actually want the seggs scenes to be shown, the other, a kuroken dj with the swallowtail butterfly tattoo
Well, maybe graduate to actually calling it sex first
saw commenters censoring certain words so i thought i should
Probably cuz they’re used to censoring their words on social media apps like TikTok or YouTube
