And in the end, they wasted so much time that could have been spent together... definitely separating characters who already had a finished and happy story was the worst choice of all. What a terrible ending we got! And we didn't even see the grandfather suffer any punishment that he really deserved. It would have been better to leave things as they were. If they were going to extend the story, it should have been something different and not stretch the timeline of the two even further, which was already perfect.
I find it funny that people are complaining about this now, but when I commented on the subject a few days ago, I was insulted and called stupid. To give you an idea, the author developed the connection between the white-haired character and the weasel more than with the main couple; they are literally in a loop where nothing happens. When I said in the past that the author was leaving the black-haired character in a loop while developing something with the white-haired rat, people called me dumb, but that's literally what was happening. Now we're back to the main couple's loop of making each other jealous, nothing happens, they drift apart and then it all starts again. ╥﹏╥
Who is the white haired rat? Or do you mean the white haired hamster instead?
Yes, I'm talking about him. In short, what I'm saying is that the author made a slight mistake in developing closer scenes between him and the weasel while leaving the two main characters in a boring loop. In fact, if you look closely, the white-haired hamster has more chemistry with the weasel now precisely because of this. But anyway, it's just my opinion, but at least people realized how annoying this loop of jealousy is—distancing and then coming back and repeating everything again.
But I feel like that's just how liking people is sometimes. I think it's actually a good thing they gave Jongseo a chance to build closer relationships with people outside of Yoontae because those connections are still powerful if you leave said relationship. I get what you're saying by the jealousy looping stuff is annoying, but at least for Jongseo, he doesn't *always* do it on purpose. Yoontae you could argue that's true. Anyway as I said earlier, the fact they're developing Jongseo's relationships with his community rather than just Yoontae gives him people to rely on later into the story because as previously established, he had no friends and barely socialized
That's exactly the point, and I'm arguing precisely that leaving the relationship with Yoontae in a repetitive loop is already boring. I don't see having a romantic rival as a problem because maybe that's what they need to wake up and realize they like each other.
ehhh I don't agree with that, as someone who read a lot of stories and doesn't really like going on loop or reading pointless chapters, I actually like how it is in this story, I also think the manhwa is rushing much faster than the novel and getting to the point right away when the novel is more with side events and details of it and the development between the Mc and his friends, in the manhwa they don't mention it as much, I enjoyed the novels details more bc I loved watching MC grow and develop his other relationships it was so heartwarming to see him that way and it's really nice to see a story where MC whole development isn't just around ML, it's a refreshing break from how it usually is, and just in a few more chapters, the focus of romance development between the two will increase sm, it's one of my fav novels bc some ppl like me enjoy watching MC story just for him and his growth with everyone not just ML, but also it's written and balanced so well to me, guess everyone just has different standard and that's okay
also I loved how in the novel they would also explain the side characters sides and talk more about them in a way that makes u understand why they act the way they do, it makes reading much enjoyable and it makes u feel like you're reading a real story with humans in it not just some brainless NPCs
I feel like it's not looping though, it's more natural. When you like people, even if you 'know' they like you back, it's hard to reach out and actually take the first step because you won't know until they confirm it to you. Adding love rivals would just piss me off too because it feels like adding unecessary conflict. It's not that 'nothing is happening', a lot does happen each chapter imo, and they're getting closer and closer to actually confessing which you can tell is gonna happen soon rather than feeling like they'll never confess. Then again I enjoy slower paced readings, so I can understand why you think this may be repetitive
This gives old man shouting at clouds energy.
