This was justreally sweet and fun in a way that totally snuck up on me!! The plot is cute as hell, with the perfect balance of humor and heart but it also manages to weave in that quiet kind of emotional depth. like, yeah we’re laughing but we’re also watching these characters figure themselves out, explore their sexuality without shame or pressure and gently grow into who they’re meant to be. It’s soft queer self-discovery done right.
Wonyoung was a baby angel!! The way he cried had me melting. He’s so easy to root for and you just want good things to happen to him always. And Taejun... he is hot!!! Like, the “every panel he's in makes you pause for a second” kind of hot. But beyond that, there’s something really tender about the way he shows up for Wonyoung. They build each other up in this lovely, quiet way that made the story feel so emotionally grounded.
The pacing was also surprisingly great. No weird rushes or drags, just a really nice flow that lets the emotional beats land without ever getting too heavy. There’s a lot of sex yes but no smut, so don’t go in expecting that, but honestly? Didn’t need it. This was wholesome in all the best, softest, gayest ways. I was smiling through most of it and a little part of me didn’t want it to end.
This was so good. The drama wasn't that complicated or out of the ordinary so the resolutions were quite easy. It focused on the development of the couple and wholesome moments. WonYoung wasn't a weak person at all and he actually drove the plot forward a lot without much push from third parties, which I found refreshing to read about.
I was also invested on the secondary couple, although there wasn't a lot of pages spent on them.
I could see myself reading this again in the future to feel good again.
i enjoyed reading this and loved the relationship between the main couple as they were developed beautifully. i wish the story expanded more on taejun's relationship with his father and possible reconciliation between them i also like this creator's writing style. i also felt side couple felt underdeveloped.
