this was SO good. for attached to so many characters omfg. SUNJA my goat. YANGJIN!!!! would’ve read a whole book abt yangjin. unpopular opinion: i unfortunately did like hansu. but he and haruki and isak were the only men that didn’t irritate me like omfg. i was cheering when kyunghee’s husband died like HATE THAT MAN!!!! and bro noa and moszasu… irritated me so bad. anyway. (my thoughts r more complex than that i swear i js can’t be bothered to type them all out) good book was so attached. will be thinking abt this for days and days.
