Idk why, but there's just something that always hits right about the solitary x social dynamic. Even better if the bottom is the chaotic one like Jeonsu in this story and Kihoon in Red Thread Quest.
Please stop mentioning Red Thread Quest, that story is just so bad...
Why are you saying it's bad
Yeah and like the organized, cold, diligent type who falls for the chaotic, almost naive one. It's so rare to see it done so well, this story is just perfection
Is it just me or does the art style feel a lot more consistent now? As in the way that Jeonsu and Seong-Ha are portrayed. I like it.
Typically bottoms are the ones that get pinned against the wall, so this is the first I've seen a top get pinned against the wall and have sex there.
Also, when Seokjun opened the door and immediately closed it after simply recognising Muyeon's chest... LOL The comedy is top-notch.
I kinda love how Chuljin grips Minwoo's ass to plunge deeper into him. Also, I think it was Chuljin that said the "you like it right here?" so I think it's really funny how it was as though it was Minwoo's "sweet spot" was hit instead of Chuljin's. Love them!
I prefer fixed positions nowadays, but I don't mind that they switched twice. Nostalgia has a stronghold on me that makes me still enjoy this series even if my preferences has changed a lot over the years.
I like the bitterness from chapter 7's story where the girl learns that the barista she loved turned out to be her mother, and I also enjoy how messed up chapter 12's story was as she blackmailed her mother. The others are probably enjoyable in their own right, but I think what made me enjoy them most was the awareness of what they were doing was messed up and conveying a core emotion. Chapter 7 felt bitter and chapter 12's was regret. Or at least, that's my takeaway from a quick read.
Something that I think is interesting is the fact that despite story starting with Suyeon and Jaehyun, Norman seems to be the true protagonist of the series.
As in, the perspective we see most in the story is through the lens of Norman as hinted by how his narration introduced us to the story.
On top of that, despite how late Chuljin made an appearance in the story, I find it fascinating how much the story revolved him despite the fact he isn't the protagonist.
While the two aforementioned story elements aren't unique on their own, both being put to use at once really adds another entertaining layer to this story. Of course, it isn't perfect, but the way it seems to experiment is another way this story it catches my attention.
I feel fortunate that the pairings and their positions/dynamics are my cup of tea.
