For the spoiler i wrote i made sure to check the box that hides the spoiler. Secondly, i only just found out I may not have read the whole story. I read on a raws website that had 30 parts some of which were extras and some that were part of the main story. The raws stopped updating in 2022 so from my perspective i thought i was reading the whole story and the last chapter I read felt like an ending. Based on the translator I have not gotten the full picture and was being misleading. It was not my intention to be misleading, I wrote what I read. I only posted the spoilers because I personally get curious especially when I know theres a novel that the manhwa was based on. Please dont let my spoilers be the reason you dont like the story because it only included snippets from the story. I really was not trying to be messy and misleading I simply get curious and want to know more and i figured some people want that too. I didnt try to skim through the novel and draw my own conclusions, i just relayed what i had read. The novel is pretty long (and apparrently thats not even the full story), so I know it will take the manhwa a while to get to everything. I am actually happy to find out theres more, i personally enjoyed reading the novel and felt like I needed more closure and apparently there will be. So keep reading the manhwa because theres a lot left i missed
him being depicted as having sympathy for jaekyung when he himself is in a difficult and terrible situation is ridiculous but at the end of the day, dan is a victim. Hes a victim of his upbringing where he was constantly made to feel small, very few people are nice to him because the only people hes had time for were terrible people trying to take things from him. He grew up with the love of his grandma but shes been sick for a while which has left him alone. He is certainly jaekyungs victim. Jaekyung is abusive and mean to him but hes also gotten dan out of some bad situations and given him a place to stay, something he was struggling to do on his own. So in his mind, he owes jaekyung something. Stockholm syndrome is a thing and add debt into the situation, how can you expect dan to beleive he deserves better when no one has ever told him he does?
i get there are some people who are repressed, not good at expressing their feelings but the way jaekyung acts youd think he face some serious trauma when he was growing up. why does he have never ending amounts of anger, why is he always exploding and not just at dan but at anyone. are we just supposed to see him as that kind of guy?? what is the author going for in making jaekyung so damn mean and angry all the time, barring his repressed feelings for dan?
- the grey haired girl who shows up in ch 11? ml has slept with her once before (before ml and mc ever gtt together), mc does find out about this at some point and is jealous and hurt but decides to move past it because he and ml were not even involved at the time (shes not an important character and doesnt show up much but there are instances where we see her because she wants to date ml)
-when ml loses his memory toward the end, mc does cut off contact for a bit after they break up, he hides his location so ml cant track him and when ml does find him, he waits out in the rain until mc lets him inside his home
- there is a side character hoobae later on in the story who is in love with/has a crush on mc. This hoobae is pretty sweet overall but he does force a kiss on the mc which mc hides from ml until ml finds out on his own
-earlier on in their relationship, mc is sort of overwhelmed by the ml clinginess and possessiveness and sometimes wishes he could have more alone time but he does eventually come to enjoy spending all his time with the ml
- both characters parents are homophbic. mc never tells his parents about his relationship with ml but ml parents know about theirs sons obsession with mc
- ml skips out on his grandpas funeral because mc isnt answering his texts or calls which sort of led to his parents finding out about his obsession/relationship with mc (this happens kind of early on in the story so this tells you how quickly obsessed ml is with mc)
-ml parents hope ml will eventually get tired of dating a man/mc so they let the relationship continue expecting it to end ( in the end they dont really/cant really interfere with the relationship)
Apparently, i only read some of the story based on the translators words so for those who may have been turned away by the novel, just know that I might not have gotten the full picture
I read the novel and the ml didnt consciously like the mc in the beginning, he thought it would just be fun to play with the mc, sleep with him once and be done with it but then he decided he could sleep with the mc any time if they were in a relationship. The mc never really finds out about this which kinda pissed me off. I will say the ml was always lowkey attracted to the mc he was just in denial. while they are in the relationship, the ml becomes very obsessed with the mc and pretty much hates when he interacts with anyone, male or female. He doesnt want mc to work or live separately from him either. This is pretty much how the whole novel goes, they have sex a lot and they are obsessed with each other.
Toward the end of the novel, the ml loses his memory from a car accident and his original personality returns. Mc tries to get ml to remember their relationship but the last thing ml remembers is being annoyed with mc for trying to pretend hes experienced with women/sex. They sleep together once and then ml decides that he doesnt want to be tied to a relationship he doesnt remember, least of all with someone annoying like mc. Mc decides to back off and moves out of their shared home and agrees to the break up because he doesnt like the current ml, he misses the 'kind, sweet' ml that he knew. He hopes the ml memories will return and then they will get back together. Ml tries to go back to his playboy ways because thats really who he is at heart but of course he feels unexplained attachment to the mc and eventually grows attached to him again. Ml and mc get back together with the mc accepting the 'new' ml (but not really new because the ml was always a playboy asshole, he just never showed that side to mc)
ml memory does eventually come back and he even gets jealous of himself because he felt like his amnesia self is a different person and that the mc was basically dating someone else even thought its all him. They live together in a new home and thats how the story ends basically
