The director is just as manipulator lol he uses hyung softhearted to pity him so he can gets what he wants, and then theres hyung who has been given minhyung mixed signs since the start, just because he represents yr ex doesn't mean u can show him love no bother nor family can show? Who wouldn't fall for that? Hyung should've made himself clear from the start if he doesn't like minhyung romantically but he never did, u will probably say because he doesn't want to lose him but its more like because he's lonely and minhyung reminds him of his ex which leads to the fact that he's just selfish, im not defending anyone all the 3 r bad so taking anyone's side means u dont understand a thing of this manhwa
