I low-key ship the redhead (Yeonghyeon) with the nonchalant black haired guy (Sangjun). Idk why but I got free will and I choose to be delusional with it

(Be prepared for a yappachino ahh paragraph)


I feel the need to let this out because I find it a bit better to voice my opinion on a story than letting it sizzle any longer. Let me make this CLEAR, I'm not gonna shit or wish death on the author for their creative decisions even if I don't exactly agree with them. At the end of the day it's the author's story and characters.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way


I have a few gripes with Su-ah and the direction his character is going. I don't have to mention the obvious bad things that he did as the commentors have already pointed that out.

Instead, I want to critique the way his backstory was implemented into the story. In truth, it feels very odd in the way that it is placed in the story as the timing couldn't been worse.

I find it a hard time to truly empathize with Su-ah's current self as obviously child exploitation is an awful thing to go through and it's especially not surprising that he'd of course be disappointed about his secondary gender.

But my issues with him as a character still stands as all of what he did against Juhyeok kinda mirrors with the way he was probably viewed and objectified as, an omega. Yes, you could argue that Su-ah cares about Juhyeok but it often times feels like he doesn't care enough about Juhyeok to at least be considerate of his well-being. When I read his inner monologues about Juhyeok I find it be more remoniscent of entitlement and obsession to Juhyeok's body. It's like his personhood isn't even a thought in his mind until Juhyeok beats it to him.

I get that Su-ah is supposed to be the possessive and yandere-adjacent male lead and I'm not yucking on anyone's yum. I fully understand that liking how a problematic character is written does not reflect on irl morals, but I feel conflicted about how the narrative is trying to frame his behavior or even downplay it at times and how he gets out of things scot-free without any real long-lasting consequences.

Maybe it's feels more unsettling for me because Su-ah doesn't take in the consideration of Juhyeok's dreams and goals and how difficult it must be to be in a field probably oversaturated with alphas whilst being an omega, he doesn't seem to understand or even see his reality will always be at a disadvantage for him even though his backstory should at least make him understand why Juhyeok is the way he is and why he cares about his career, but with chapters like chapter 19-20, he feels like any other alpha that wants to baby-trap the MC in favor of their on selfish gain. Juhyeok is biologically tied to Su-ah and it wasn't even by choice, the whole scenting thing strips any agency Juhyeok had over their relationship. As a reader i feel more convinced that Su-ah loves the idea of the promise he made with him rather than Juhyeok himself.


Anyways I think this is another case of a "I'm reading this for the side couples" type of manhwa, since I find their potential to be interesting and I like the artstyle. I'll let this marinate until it's the side couples turn ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
