New guy is MC's big brother. Based on his demeanor, I'm guessing he's a bit of a bully and apathetic towards his little brothers struggles. He'll likely treat MC as a freak and ML will feel protective on his behalf, despite insisting there's no romantic interest.
I wish their relationship was more defined at the end. We know our MC loves the ML, and ML has properly expressed his feelings but we didn't get to see that the other way around. If there's side stories, then I hope to see more into their romantic dynamic and communication.
Also was I the only one confused by the phone call in somewhere in ch 70 ish? Like mc has his epiphany, but the conversation seems to be obscured from readers.
Overall I enjoyed the story, I binged it within days. I'm always deeply endeared by ukes with tough, bratty personalities. I just wish the latter half of the series was a little more focused/clear.
