Oh boy, what can I say? As someone who used to purchase this manhwa, I'm more then mad and disappointed. At first it was a good piece of art, the characters were even back then... shallow? But I really believed it will be better with time and so I started to waste money on this one. Somehow I was stupid enough to think Jinha would learn to control his temper, Siwon would learn not to be a stupid Idiot, both learning from their mistakes they made. But no, nothing, it even became worse on Siwons part while Jinha keeps clinging to someone who clearly doesn't know what he wants.
I had some hope with the "Future! Siwon" part, but nope. It got all down the drain with a unnecessary "Love interest" just to milk thirsty fangrils who think forcing yourself on someone and toying with people's mind is an enticing and more appealing character. I believe at some point the artist didn't have any new ideas where "A man like you" should go, and so she thought putting a psychopath and some BDSM into it would make things more interesting for readers.(Psssh,It didn't, it got even more annoying than it was before.)
I'm outing myself as a Lu x psychiatry fan, in the end, it's where he belongs. I still don't get how some reader would even consider him as someone who could love anyone but himself. If you want to see abusive behavior, what won't will have a happy ending, then keep sticking to Killing Stalking.
And for Siwon and Jinha I wish they would break up, simply because Siwon doesn't hit me as someone who would get serious with a guy. So give this dude a girl so he can make daddy proud.(Yes, I'm sick of Siwon) Jinha maybe should spend time alone, and get his shit together before he starts dating again.
Hopefully someone who will cherish him, and the things he does for them. (Please stop hitting people....)
But we all know how this story will end, don't we?
A rushed ending where Jihan and Siwon will end up together.
. Exactly. That's what it seems it happened in this story. The author didn't developed the main couple bonding or their relationship into anything relevant. It flattened out in the same repetitive behavior. Then, not knowing what to do with the story or the plot, the author opted for the cheap fanservice for distraction and trying to add some 'spice' --- more like poured a whole bottle of it and spoiled the whole diner. The author seriously miscalculated the 'love triangle' addition and how the two MCs got even more downgraded and this is the mess we have now.
Imagine that this story sits with 9+ ratings ... probably because it had a promising start and readers were quick to give such good credit to it. However this is definitely overrated for a story with so many flaws, even more because there are stories in here who truly deserve their 9+ for its overall quality ( and others that deserve it as well but because are not popular or don't have any trope or fanservice, never make it pass 8+)
Some people seem to forget A Guy like you is a shonen ai, there will be no fucking, at least nothing we will see. There is and will be just hints, nothing graphic.
