How does this not have a review??? Talk about UNDERRATED. This manhwa right here is a GEM, A MASTERPIECE. I never thought I'd find myself reading a shounen ai thriller mystery manhwa AND END UP ABSOLUTELY LOVING IT. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING WHEN I SAY THIS IS TOP-TIER STUFF. The characters, their relationship, the backstory, the art and the plot- everything is perfect. Literally just perfection. The suspense had me on edge the entire time, too. The characters are complex, with their own set of trauma and troubles, but they deal with it maturely (the mafia boss dealt with things in his own unique way, ... we don't count that) and I have zero complains. At the end of the story, I couldn't properly guess who the culprit was, but it was a super satisfying ending regardless. My only complain about this manhwa is that it doesn't have enough romance in it ಥ_ಥ I WANTED MORE OF THEM UGH. But it was all in all an amazing read. HIGHLY recommend.

Don't get me wrong, I love smutty BLs that make zero sense plot-wise. But every once in a while I want an emotional read, with likeable characters and a compelling sad backstory. Park Hanhoo and Baek Chansol are exactly that (if not relatable too). I love me a good thrill, just like our Chanchan and this gave me literally that.
It's not very romance heavy, I'll admit and after going through all that business, politics and crime talk, the finale was not gay enough for me. For a casual BL reader (that just clicked on this after seeing the art style on the cover and the ... completed tag) it was a little difficult to make sense of that thick plot, but I still liked it a lot. I was a challenge to keep up with mentally, in the best way possible. I would love to read 10 chapters of them just being snarky and gay, but I guess it left off short and sweet. And now I think rethink my life decisions for the next few weeks.
