the description for this drama doesn't do a lot to "paint a picture" of what is gonna be, and after watching the 1st season (which felt like a train-wreck, and not cause of obvious reason) watching Pun (a vulnerable, innocent kid that's living all alone) go into that Coffee Shop for an interview - where Tar comes off as a bit of a pevr and one of the requirements was the King Game, i'm like what "den of iniquity" has this boy walked into -
when Sib the other partner of the establishment says the rule is "not to fall in-love with the owner" and asks if he can drinks - i'm like, a couple of perve offering jobs to innocents that they later can "feast" on?!? ugh plz
add to this, Sib dropping off another kid that flips him the bird - also a high schooler - what other conclusion can u come too, but think it's his previous lover. u fast start wondering WTF kind sh*t is gonna go down and how far this is gonna be pushed -

But Sib is straight (or deep in the closet) with a beard to boot - in the form off Pan (his gf) and the kid that flipped him the bird is his younger sibling M (that fact is kept in the dark - why is beyond me. but their animosity isn't explained either, well not satisfyingly, until the end). Tar his partner is his best bff - but also a rejected love interest, that confessed but cause off Sib being scared(?) he ignored him and they still bff's (? )..

Pun seeing the "bird flip" and getting kissed by a drunk Sib (courtesy of that moronic game) is interested in Sib, so when he see's M at school, he tries to get close to find out how they connected - which doesn't end well, as M got a huge chip on his shoulder - he angry at the word. and his "turn around" is cause he sees Pun serving at Pan's B-Day party in the Coffee Shop, so he decides to mess with Pun - why? cause... but that soon turns into infatuation - in the freakin blink of an eye - he goes from calling Pun a "faggot" to kissing him senseless - but that makes more sense then Sib going from coming between Pun and M cause he was the one that "dared" Pun to befriend his sibling, and keep tabs on him (informing Sib of how M is getting along) so now that friendship has turned into more he doesn't like it - and get's M fired from the Coffee Shop - just to act all worried cause M goes missing - but the first thing he does is take Pun to the movies?!?? where they kiss and of course the next scene is Pun inviting Sib into the bedroom - WTF??? get Pun has been infatuated with Sib from the start - and Sib is also interested (as he always found a reason to touch Pun and be close to him) but considering everything else happening - not to mention M - this was a WTF conclusion to this pair.

everyone saying they the main couple - sorry, how? neither knows what they want - Pun waking up to M kissing the heck out of him, didn't stop him or say "no" he was all go, if M didn't stop - would they end up in bed too?!? is that how u befriend people??? as that was Pun's excuse. even before when he thought M was gonna kiss him, he was ready and willing - this a new way to befriend people - maybe friend with benefits.
and Sib the dude other then saying "sorry" and going around doing sh*t that contradicts that "sorry" is clueless to what he really wants and even when he does know - he isn't really ready to come out o the closet - even his running after Pun at the end (while he thinks Pun and M r dating, which - what kind of despicable person do u need to be, to go after ur siblings partner?!?) is ready to say he misses Pun, and is sorry - but not ready to commit in any other way -

the only one that made me watch this until the end was M - he was the only character that showed any kind of growth. he showed remorse and change - maturity. he had the ability to forgive and put aside his feeling just cause he wanted to safe-guard Pun from his sibling's inability to be true to his real feelings. and he is the only one who was left heartbroken (as i predicted from the start). he deserved better then the family he got, and for sure the love he fell for -

this drama is more focused on that moronic game , when they could've dealt with all the issues the characters had and take this down a different root and not Pun bailing cause he didn't get the love confession, heck declaration that he wanted from Sib - he got more then one, from M - with actions to show that he cared and would do anything to keep him safe and happy - but it didn't count - not to keep him with M or to even consider his feelings - cause M didn't count. so to say the main's r Pun and Sib is an insult, demoting M to a side character, as he was the only worthy character around, nah not agreeing with this B.S (well Tar was also ok, but the dude needed to choose better friend let alone love interest, and he was old enough to know when to say enough and move on).
