Communication is king

This story was realistic in how it depicted high school students. The main character, Woohyun, was a confused high school student, and high school students are often kids who don't always know what they want. On the opposite hand the other male lead, Doha, knew exactly what he wanted and wasn't afraid to communicate it. He would be considered "manly" despite looking smaller and more "girly." And I really liked that subversion of the weak, confused uke and strong, manly seme tropes.

As a couple, I was really glad that they communicated (for the most part) even if it took some time and weren't afraid to express their emotions. In the day to day, they were really cute together and had all these tiny little moments that the reader could see how they would work so well together. (Clingy Woohyun is soooo cute.) I also liked the teacher in this story and how he handled himself in regard to his students. He was a proper adult, and we know that isn't always the case in yaoi stories.

The pacing and the tension in this story was balanced very well...until the very end. I agree with another commenter that it ended very rushed in comparison to the rest, and I feel
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
it kinda went against everything the story stood for before this point about communication, moving on, and letting go of the past. Like I'm fine with the studying abroad trope but still being madly in love after FOUR years? Maybe cut it down to one year or something.

Reading the author's comments at the end, I could see how the author was very deliberate about what they wanted to express and it really showed.

Rushed Ending

The pros = Season 1 and 2 were great. The pacing of the storyline was good until (English version on Manta) season 2 episode 43 (of 50). The artwork is beautiful.

The cons = Towards the end of season 2 the story pacing becomes rushed, there is a time jump, and everything that took 43 episodes to develop is half baked into the last episode.
