The concept for this is so goddamn funny. Sangwoo Choo is in a group project and is the only one who does anything on that group project, so in retaliation he removes everyone else's names from the project. One of those names was a senior who needed that project to graduate. So, when they later meet up the senior, Jaeyoung Jang makes it his mission to make Sangwoo Choo miserable, because if he needs to be there another semester he may as well have some fun. But, spending all this time together the men may be catching some feelings for each other too, or not? This is a great and fast read for anyone who likes teasing and bickering in their romance, and the art is AMAZING.

I had so much fun reading this! I wasn’t sure if I would love this, but I absolutely did!

First of all, Jaeyoung is absolute chaos, and I adore him. His determination to annoy , at first, was deranged. Absolute stalker behavior from Jaeyoung. Just because Sangwoo is easy to stalk doesn’t mean that Jaeyoung isn’t a stalker. Still. I found it all so amusing. He learned all the little ways to annoy the shit outta Sangwoo, and I have to admire the dedication. Plus, when he flips to wanting to be charming and nice? Be still my heart! He’s so fucking pretty. I love seeing him in his evil mode, but his nice mode is even more heart-melting.

Second of all, Sangwoo has never done anything wrong in his life. Ever. And I will stand by that. My guy just cannot stand by people getting credit for work they didn’t do, and I have to respect that. Truly I relate so much to his clear-cut view of life, and his need for routine. The narrative went out of its way to clarify he’s not neurodivergent…but I beg to differ. The absolute need for routine and the way it fucks up his whole day if it’s messed with is not neurotypical. It just ain’t 🤷🏻‍♀️ Still. It’s his way of being that makes me love him 💖 So relatable and real of him to be a pain to others when he just wants to live his life and not have anyone bother him. I only wish for him to be able to return to fully being an Unbothered King 🙏🏻

Third of all, I’m so excited to continue this series! I already feel so invested! I need to see how their relationship develops, and I also want to see the friendship between Sangwoo and Jihye develop. She was truly so helpful to him in this volume, and my beloved deserves a friend 💖

It was so charming, funny and the art style is gorgeous!

I highly recommend checking out this manhua!
