Waow did you say drama because I didn't really catch that... Damn you got some issues!

But you still want to read more and the art is just beatiful! <3

(SPOILER)

Let me just say that I hate Youngha DO! BUT we all know why he is such a bad character (because his dad is a piece of sh*t) so I do feel bad for the poor man but that doesn't mean that all he did was acceptable!

The 10 extra chapters was kinda unnecessary to be honest

The plot of this manhwa is like a roller coaster of emotions, especially the struggles that Chanbit went through. I also like that this also tackles the long-term effects of parental neglect and abandonment on a person who experienced a neglectful childhood. I think Kim Dam-nim clearly demonstrated the impact through Youngha and Chanbit.

I do like how Kim Dan-nim shows Chanbit how deep trauma can affect his mentality and how he is able to interact with affection and in his relationships. As Chanbit was abandoned by his parents and the lack of love he received from them, he seeks out love and attention and sadly falls victim to Youngha's abuse, such as coercing him into BDSM, blackmailing him to leak their videos, leaving him and treating Chanbit as his property. Despite having had a rough childhood, it doesn't justify his actions towards Chanbit.

Baekyung is a walking green flag to me! He's definitely boyfriend material. I really appreciate all the things he did for Chanbit, and I'm glad that he was one of Chanbit's support systems whenever Chanbit faced difficulties. It also melts my heart that he's always trusted and supported Chanbit. I really enjoyed how their relationship blossomed from friends to lovers. I find it adorable how Baekhyung babyed Chanbit, and also all those chibis are absolutely adorable too! I'm so glad that Chanbit found his people who love him, and I love Mr. Kim and Chae since they always bring fun whenever they appear. Although, I wish that Kim Dam-nim showed Baekyung's other side and was not only seen as Chanbit's lover.

Mild Spoilers:

The CEO is a childish and toxic character that hurt the MC in the past and is blackmailing him in the present to be his sex partner. He claims to love the MC but it more out of a childish desperation to claim something or someone. The CEO also had no regard for the MC's feelings or boundaries, but that's to be expected when he's threatening. In the end the MC was able to be in a happy and healthy relationship with his manager; and they were able to get the CEO off their case. Thankfully in the end the CEO finally gave up (but I just think he found something else to fixate his obsession on).

I dislikes Chanbit personality. There I said it. The reason I dropped it because of Chanbit and the CEO. Idk, but I got to say that the Seme is worth someone better. UGH. I love the art tho. Like the characters design is SUPERB, but yea... not gonna lie that Chanbit personality got me stressed out. also the CEO is such a DOUCHE. It got me mad everytime I saw him on screen so yeah, DROPPED.
