Author LOVES making every other women a pick me and swoon over the male leads. What a load of bullshit.

@Blob I wonder why there aren't any female characters who could be a good friend to Haesoo, except the coworker at the Bbq restaurant (whose last appearance was centuries ago). The rich dark haired girl at the exhibition didn't seem at least a pick me but it's not easy to analyze her character since she appeared only in two or three chapters up to now.
@Seiryuu They are all really forgettable honestly. The one who acting like a human for me was the one who were working as a s/x worker who helped MC to rescue Haesoo. Even as then I remember her saying MC was a handsome man. Author does not wan't to work on the female side characters.
Everyone is getting reduced to repeating storylines until MC does something especially towards them.

@Blob Yes, she seemed pretty fine. It's true that the side characters' pov and psychology are quite neglected but I also think the author put considerable energy in depicting Mincheol and Haesoo's backstory (which is very well written) while Taeha's past is still clouded in mistery. I wish s/he relied a little less on inner monologues and let the characters "speak" by their actions and interact with each other.
