Hated it

I had to force myself to finish this one.
For one thing, any and all drama in this series was caused by the character themselves. There's no outward forces causing struggle. Nothing like "them against the world" or anything. It's literally entirely their fault the whole time.
And I use "their" very loosely since it's pretty much entirely the uke being a dick. Everything he does "is because of his trauma" but his trauma was hardly anything in the first place. It's not like I'm saying he should have just gotten over it or anything, but the actions he took because of it made absolutely no sense whatsoever.
And most of the series has his repeating the lines he's doing it so as to not hurt eunho buuuut he's deliberately doing actions to hurt eunho.
And then the series tried to force a "there's equal responsibility" plot at the end as if eunho did anything wrong? He didn't. His actions towards the end were totally justified after all the crap he had been through but the series tried to make it sound like he was equally as terrible as jaeh. He wasn't.
Not only that but character personalities/thoughts shift waaaaay too much from one extreme to the other in the blink of an eye. It is clearly trying to justify their actions with an explanation but they don't match.
In the end this series was about twice as long as it needed to be and with all the problems and blame landing squarely on the main it is an annoying read through and through.

Garbage plot stretched for too long. Even with all the extra drama it's still trash.

sexy but not too deep

The drawing is very good, the story is ok (a little bit too yaoish, they are mostly talking about hurting each other and being hurt, and then they have sex).

Very moody webtoon.

I really liked the first season, but adding on that extra drama for a whole second season was a bit too much for me. For such a simple issue, it could've been resolved in half the amount of chapters.. Otherwise, Eunho's pure and undying love was very heartwarming, and the main reason why I found this webtoon enjoyable. The art was just okay. The colored chapters at the end were way nicer than the black and white chapters of the main story.. I know it would've taken more time to do every chapter in color, but the black and white really made the story seem like it was dragging on way more than it already was.

Best yaoi I've ever read yet

The setup seems typical but there's something special about Lover Boy. Amazing things were accomplished with a small cast in terms of relationship insecurity, hurt, and learning to forgive each other and trust in love again. It'll be my favorite yaoi for a long time.
