Who was the mysterious man that saved his? And could he be the same esoteric benefactor that has been shrouded in secrecy, supporting Hee-seo from behind the scenes? Unmoored like a tree without roots and desperate for answers, Hee-seo sets his family’s home ablaze in hopes of drawing the man out from the shadows. But this reckless attempt for a semblance of clarity in his life may lead Hee-seo to more than he bargained for… Can a tree without roots grow to reach the sun? Or is it destined to wither away in the absence of light?

debut work

For a debut work this has been really good so far! It has some heavy themes (e.g. suicide attempts, confinement) and an obsessive, very possessive seme. Features a younger seme (blond) x an older uke (black haired guy). The chapters are well done: perspective/composition of scenes,the dialogue between characters, the main characters inner thoughts/narration. Excellent storytelling, excellent writing.
The first chapter really was good because we the readers are told that
The first two chapters:
The first chapter is SUCH an attention grabbing one that makes you want to read more. You ask yourself: why is trying to jump off the building? Who is this mysterious older man? What are the connection between the two main characters? Etcetera. Really good art, good character designs, excellent usage of introducing the two main characters mentioning a possible past connection but giving the readers just the right amount of details to leave the actual story mysterious and then actually slowly unraveling the core details throughout the consequential chapters of the first season. Even the title of the work is very attention grabbing (A tree without roots....)
Webtoon adaptions such as Payback (by Fujoking&SamK ? ) could maybe take note on how you execute the first/second chapter of a series and overall narration/storytelling throughout the rest of the series.

Spoiler (mouse over to view)
yes, their current relationship is going well currently in the timeline of the story (the past) but something happens 8 years in the future where it seems to be a toxic relationship where the seme even locks up the uke with chains (I'm assuming that he didn't keep his word that he will never leave him). The first chapter/first season is basically a flashback of 8 years ago when the uke was 19 and the seme I think 27? I'm really really hoping that this series has a happy ending even though the first chapter shows that the younger seme has the uke locked up 8 years in the future.

Yeah, so the black-haired guy saves the blond when the blond was a child and basically lives to regret it. All I could think was that meme: 'god wanted me dead and now you get to find out why' regarding life debts. Blond definitely takes it that way.
