Comment: It's one of my top-most favourites and I genuinely love the art and the plot. The female lead is okay and I honestly don't have anything wrong with her. As for the male lead, I truly admire that he gets quite possessive with the female lead even when he (probably) never thought about what he truly feels towards her. Though (I think) this is something that we might dislike since in most cases, the female lead ends up getting hurt because the male lead either doesn't want to admit his feelings or he doesn't want to think too deeply about whatever he feels towards the female lead which ends up confusing her, the female lead isn't too fazed about it. She probably doesn't want to let it bother her or hurt her but whatever the reason is, I genuinely think that she seems okay because she hangs out with the male lead and do things together in which it feels as if they're an actual couple. This most likely seems confusing so please ignore it if it is but please check this out because it's really nice and we might have different opinions towards it so don't let my comment ruin this beautiful work.
