I feel like there wasn't enough happening for Garam after Breakup No 2. Both of them actually. It seems like he didn't really miss his existence, then remembered him, watched a video a couple of times, then heard Jaehyuk is abroad and was like "Oh no, gotta do sth", but had to put in 0 effort because Jaehyuk was actually only at his parents restaurant.
Jaehyuk should've had SOMEONE to talk to and get a damn breather...
If they now just scream at eachother a bit and get together again I'm fed up.
Well no, we actually did a time skip between ch 120 and 121, so stuff actually happened (and Garam still not treating himself well, still downplaying it)
At first I thought I was absolutely for Natsuhi, but after re-reading it a while later I thought Kaede would be great, too.
As soon as we found out there was a childhood friend/love twist, I was Kaede all the way :D I just think that makes it much deeper.
Also I just thought, both brothers ended up with their childhood friends
I wonder what Makoto would say, when he hears about it.
Side note: It does annoy me a bit that in many manwhas the character was "turned gay". Like, no. If you can fall in love and/or be s3xually attracted to two genders, then congrats, you found out you're bi. Making it seem like you can catch "the gay" makes it so much scarier for many people.
I would never have thought that I'll come to like Jaehyuk, but here I am.
I also do understand Garam, coming out is super scary, especially with his background story and in Korea, at uni. And the way Jaehyuk goes about it makes it worse, even if he has good intentions (I want to let everybody know that I love and I'm not ashamed, idgf what other people say).
However with the talk they had about not breaking up with each other, even if the parents asked him to, his reasoning of doing it for Jaehyuk is an excuse for his own anxiety (which is warranted).
I just feel like there could've been a better solution other than running away to a different apartment and then what? What would that time away have changed?
In any case, even if it feels frustrating rn, it makes sense from a story telling perspective; sth had to happen. And I hope Garam will act now, Jaehyuk gave it his all, I hope he does the same. Also, depending in the country he's in rn, that could be a great opportunity.
AND most importantly, I hope the author/artist gets better
I have to say it once more (without spoiler), that is without a doubt one of the sweetest endings I've seen and I felt so seen, it actually made me tear up
And the same with the last bonus chapter. I'm sad it's over, but it was a lovely ride and I'll definitely will read it again.
I did not see that plot coming and it was so interesting.
Important for people who get frustrated quickly when a certain plot gets dragged on unnecessarily or get anxious easily
Whenever I was worried I'll get annoyed at a certain situation or trait of a character (because in other stories it would've definitely kept on going just to make the story longer), it would get conclude somehow or relieved.
I'm very happy I stuck with it.
Chapter 95:
Her coming at him with the "Why are you so greedy father?" [...] "You refuse to step down from the title of most handsome man in the empire."
It makes me.burst out in laughter every time
I honestly had to fight my way through a lot of chapters in the beginning. I cringe easily so for a long time it was a hard read, BUT I checked the comments multiple times when I thought I couldn't do it anymore, that motivated me. And at a certain point it became soo funny, so heartwarming and now I can definitely say, I get why people like it so much.
I'm in the same boat, lol--had to do a quick skim read to find out where all the misunderstandings get cleared up so I'd have a clear goal in mind to help me get through all the second-hand embarassment (episode 43, btw). It'll be worth it though, 100% (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
