OTL completely fails as a well written story because the author permanently sidelined the OG plot which was the love point system to force an unnecessary and artificial love triangle that should have ended in high school BECAUSE SOOAE ALREADY PICK EUNHYUK. Instead of organically rebuilding the main character's relationship through the original plot, the author brought back Dohwa just for unnecessary LT and now using Dohwa as a shallow plot device to trigger events while trapping Eunhyeok in a stunned state of misery. This constant misery,family drama and childhood abuse doesn’t feel authentic anymore. It feels like a manufactured excuse to his total lack of character progression. "He is depressed." "He didn't want to runied her peace because he saw happy." Okay valid but how long is he gonna stay in this state forever while we have to watch him willows in misery? And the author predictable decision of following the trope " he is silently devoted , watch over her from far away." How much longer will he actually progress as a character outside of this misery and communicate to Sooae? You don't ghost someone for 10 year with no explanation and expect her to have no resentment for what you have done. Is Sooae gonna be the one to pull this man out of his misery to force him to communicate with her because his is hurting when he has hurt her just as much?

No I am not a Dohwa stan or Eunhyuk stan or even Sooae stan but after reading the story the character individually just lack complexity. Their dynamic no longer feel authentic. I would have call Eunhyuk character as complex if the narrative weren't this lazy. He can express his insecurities, flaws while still having progression and moving forward even just a bit not even for Sooae but for himself during those 10 years because he could still try his best to move on while still continuing to love her instead of continuing to willows in his misery when Sooae herself has expressed her willingness to hear him out before.

Eunhyuk can be depressed. He can have unresolved trauma. He can struggle to communicate. None of those things automatically disqualify him from being a romantic lead. But what does he actually bring to their present day dynamic beyond his lingering feelings and his misery://

And also why the fuck was even Dohwa brought back in for the unnecessary LT. 10 years and bro didn't move on even a bit? He could have stayed in story through the og plot but instead the author focus on the cheap love triangle

TJ solo cult, Jo mommy association and Ian lovers just get over it. Tjian is endgame. Great. It's not like these two bitches actually got anytime to heal or get over their trauma. If you actually love TJ or if you love Ian than you'd realize that both of these bitches were entertaining and intriguing because of their relationship and feeling for each other. So get tf over it.
"TJ deserve to something more than a yw simp" they reason you come to love him because you want this type of lover in the first place.
"You're mischaracterizing Ian" when are we gonna realize that no matter how much you want people to understand him. It will never happen because they just hate him and you're just wasting your breathe. Learn to accept it.
