YES! We finally, FINALLY get a bunch of time dedicated to Jinhoo and Joonha’s relationship! Most of the volume is spent on Jinhoo torturing himself with feelings of love for Joonha, and the end of the volume has a scene with the two of them that I’ve been waiting for the entire series.
There was a lot of talk and not much action in this volume, but many things were dealt with. The annoying girl (friend of Heewon) is driven away from Taehyun only by the latter convincing her that he is gay. Taehyun still is deeply in love with Joonha, and after spreading that around as much as possible both in front of Joonha and around her back, Taehyun finally makes a bold move. Heewon continues to treat her boyfriend badly, as we knew she would.
It’s hard, because while I think that Jinhoo and Joonha are the perfect couple, I wouldn’t be totally unhappy in Joonha winding up with Taehyun either. It looks at this point like that is totally unlikely, so I can now wipe that from my mind and breathe a sigh of relief.
Jinhoo’s girlfriend still needs to be dealt with, and I’m looking forward to how that is handled. He does love her, but she’s just not Joonha. She’s known that all along, but I think… well, she does love Jinhoo. It will be a delicate situation.
One thing that did bother me about this volume was the weird cuts through time. Scenes jumped between characters really fast, to the point where you couldn’t tell what was happening when, especially early on in the volume. It doesn’t hurt things too much, and it’s not detrimental since at this point in the series everyone reading it is familiar with the characters, but it’s still extremely disorienting.
I don’t really read them for fear of spoilers, but some of the general comments on Netcomics, which is now running the 8th and final volume of the series, suggest that perhaps things don’t wrap up as neatly as they should. I’m a little worried about this, but then again, maybe the majority opinion differs from mine or something. I don’t know. I just know that I loved nearly every page of this volume.
