There are other reviews that go more in depth but I just wanted to add a PSA/Trigger Warning:

If you hate sexual assault and/or forceful 'semes' this is NOT for you.
If you hate emotional abuse this is NOT for you.

The whole 3rd Arc is 95% sexual assault and emotional abuse by a sadistic asshole.
The constant painful scenes are not worth the ending, especially Extremely maddening

The only reason I gave this a two is because of the beautiful artwork.

the mc is so damn frustrating

If you're looking for a dark deep stories with unique and amazing developed characters... better look else where. I like this cause the art is nice and smut scenes are good (i like it when the rival falls for the innocent uke - yep excuse my shallow kink), so I'll just stick with this. I kinda want a threesome to be honest. (wishful thinking, I know others won't like it though so the author would not dare to)

I realized the creator had no idea where the story is going and as a reader, I'm baffled by the recent chapters. I figured the main story arc was resolved it would end peacefully but now it's gone from modern day to supernatural stories. I can't recc'd this webtoon due to the nonsensical plot but the art is nice. I can't cheer for either LI since MC is better off without them in the long run.

Also, both LI are oddly violent for no reason...

btw: Kang looks like the Yu from P4 and now you can see it too.

There was a time when I just started reading manhwas/manhuas. I was amazed by how they were full color, that was something different from mangas. So I was trying nearly every Korean and Chinese comics I saw. I was not sure about this one, but I gave it a shot anyway. And well, it was not for me.
I've read it up to chapter 9 and then stopped. Why? Mostly because of the characters.
First, Go Siwon. He was typical uke-ish uke. The kind I hate. Complete lack of personality. His feelings are changing too fast and too unreasonable. He started to get on my nerves from the very beginning and eventually made me drop this comic. When I'm reading a comic or a book, the main character means a lot to me and it has a decisive role in whether I will read on or not. And Siwon had nothing that would make me like him. He was too plain.
Then, Kang Jinha. Typical scheme. Rich, handsome, popular, smart, but at the same time arrogant and mean. Just like with Siwon, everything about him irritates me but in a different way. I understand that comic can't tell you everything at the beginning, but the way Kang Jinha was hiding the truth from Siwon was just hard to stand. I had this feeling as if he disliked Siwon and was mean to him but then was surprised that Siwon could to the same thing. He was like all these "Why doesn't he love me? I was so perfectly mean and possessive he should love me by now!" semes.
So, after nine chapters I dropped it. But then I saw it somewhere again and I thought "okay, maybe it's not that bad and I should give it another chance?" So, I came back around chapter 50-52 and read it till the end. And well, it was getting even worse. Just like previous people mentioned here: Siwon is forced into love, everything about his relation with Kang Jinha is unnatural, no chemistry whatsoever, plot is going nowhere, too many misunderstandings, lack of communication, I no longer understand who is doing what and why

Who would I recommend this manga to? I don't even know! Maybe for the people who like suspense and misunderstand. Maybe to stong-seme-weak-uke lovers. And definitely to people who like love triangles.
Who would I not recommend it to? People who like well-created characters, dislike dramas build only on misunderstanding and are looking for a naturally progressing relationship.

started off so unique, that hot/cold treatment! yet to see this setup elsewhere! hoped for some epic reveal why he has to repress feelings irl, them exploring that magical dream world but meh... simple misunderstanding and meh... old memories. oh plot devices, where would be be without you. every interaction happens is just to raise sexual tension too... which got old really soon. hows getting pushed around on every corner while trying to move plot along even sexy anymore? got sick of this around 30ish chapter but couldnt stop reading because OCD. then that lame-ass rival shows up! who completely forgets why he came there in first place.

really hoped its gonna be at least slither close to Haribo's End of the Road. setting is nearly identical. abused kids -> split at childhood -> magic happens -> nasty rival. i even thought this one is an unfinished weak prototype.

This story has arcs, so the plot actually changes. The mcguffin (plot device) stone is what ties them all together. The art is good, the coloring is truly sensational. As much as it seems I am about to rag on this story, I really did enjoy it.

The first arc has a unique/rarely used story of two men brought together by shared dreams. The bad part is when you realize Jinha is using the dream stone to compensate for being an abraisive unaproachable asshole who will never tell anyone something twice & waits for them to figure it out themselves. Basically, all he had to do was approach Siwon at school & remind him they met in kindergarten, so all of the drama he created for Siwon is entirely on him. Basically, he may be the smartest kid in class, but a complete moron when it comes to socializing.

Arc 2.... Siwon has rhe same name as the protagonist from At the End of the Road, the seme love interests look lke fanart of eachother, but Jihan & Woojin also share very similar background stories of parental abandomnet/abuse, silver hair, & having 2 names. Their past even sparks memories of the childhoid years of 19 Days. To be fair, that kind of background story is so rampant in webtoons it's practically a meme.

The 3ed arc introduces a jilted love interest from Jihan's past who threatens to harm Siwon. Meanwhile, Siwon discovers that his apparently homophobic best friend is closet-gay.

Throughout, there are some really sexy scenes that always turn out to be Siwon fantasizing about Jihan forcing himself on him, but Jihan never does. It kind of says something about Siwon.

And...aaaah the characters are sooo stupid. I also really dislike the way Siwon is forced to fall in love. It has OK elements, but it is too melodramatic, and the misunderstandings could be solved pretty easily, but no...it has to drag on, and Go Siwon HAS to act all stupid....sigh....
What a shame, the art is beautiful.

honestly I didn't think this was going to be an amazing story. I thought it would be so-so. Average. BUT it has completely shocked me. Now it's not the most perfect story I have ever read in manga/manwha but it is intriguing definitely and there may be some cliches..but it works. Everything moves along & flows well. The characters have a lot of back story.
