Both of these stories deal with an age gap romance where the uke knew the seme when the seme was younger. Both ukes are still dealing with a former lost love that makes them unable to reciprocate the seme's feelings. These manhwas are slow burns with very realistic and heavy atmospheres. They are simple yet the relationships are complicated and unhealthy. Thankfully though, they both have happy endings.
