I read this back when I was 15 in 2020, and I have always branded it as a hidden gem, a masterpiece with mind blowing plot. But then I was always mad at Jinsol cause of how much he did to saegye. But when I reread it now as a 21 years old, everything kinda makes sense and it was still the masterpiece for me(kinda big deal since for 6 years of reading a thousand of manga/manhwa, you get to be introduced to more better manhwa).
I promise you guys you need to reread when you mature enough. You get to understand a certain perspective like love really can make you blind, in which being too dependent to one person is saegye's mistake. It also hurt me every single time Jinsol says I love you knowing it was a lie. But there was a scene in the bus where he said I love you then sighed a relief. Kinda shows he was also scared that he actually also caught feelings. I think he was to blinded with his goals that he kinda deluded himself that he cannot fall in love with saegye.
All in all, even though its been 6 years, I STILL WANT SIDE STORIES. I wanted to see how they got into a relationship and their everyday lives. Like do they just instinctively kiss just to switch if they get a work in the future. Or how did saegye really make fun of jinsol so much.
Also one of my theories, Jinsol already liked saegye when they switched back at the end. Cause he never said anything like I love you when he got back the False. He just said Wait for me to love you. I was already suspecting he already fell in love cause who would kiss like that after not liking someone.
So I didnt even know how I stumbled here but this is one of the those stories that really made me cry. The whole time I always got sad how bad their condition of living was since they could not even live peacefully. And I prayed of Liuwi dying every single chapter I see him.
Spoiler:
Chapter 75 really did me a lot. I like tragedy stories but I thought author really was that evil to make that the ending. But unfortunately, everything was saved through chapter 76. And I STILL WANT MORE SIDE STORIES.
The way this was written was just so beautiful like it makes us feel like how it is living in Kowloon. The narration and flow of the story made me really think this was a true story. I wouldnt even be surprised if it was it was too realistic but also unrealistic at the same time. Also their struggle to live there, unit to unit, even living in a rubble, really pained me and made me feel like I was fortunate of my life. All in all, I hope people got to read this too.
