if there's a word to describe this manhwa it would be 'overwhelming'
I think there's too many characters that the author put focus on. Kangjin, Jungkwon, Chisoo, bodyguard guy, Roah, and even the two owners of the gay pub.
the author put in scenes for each of them, revealing some kind of mysterious thing around them (bodyguard's scars, the two owners' relationship, Chisoo's past etc.) and just decided to never tell the whole story. What was it all for then? What was the point of showing/mentioning any of that?
Obviously it was probably because the author wanted to finish the story quickly and not dwell on it and didn't flesh out the character's stories well except for the two main ones. Begs the question of why didn't you just focus on three characters, leaving the side characters as side characters?
The ending felt unfinished too, I know they're like actors or whatnot but it feels like a joke so I'm taking it as a quirky thing. Its like when everyone back in middle school finished their short stories with the sentence "and then they woke up"...same energy here.
The ending tells you nothing about what happened to anyone at all except Jungkwon and Kangjin. Even then it's still a little unsatisfying. Aside from the ending clearly being unhappy it's just so...dull.
I think the author focused a lot on shock factor and plot twists, things like trauma, r@pe, gore, violence, unrequited love, drugs, suicide/ideation; none of these topics were looked into deeply, just surface level at best. leaving a ton of plot holes and unanswered questions. It's gives off the feeling like there was no script/outline written for this beforehand.
