TLDR; guy tries to scam men online by pretending to be a girl, ends up getting a obsessive possessive yandere bf instead, is scared of letting him find out his real gender bcz he'll beat the shit out of him.

it's so fun to read, the trope is so funny, and the initial chemistry is a 10/10, i won't lie it does get a bit boring after they start dating but it's still very worth the read for the rest of it, it's just that good. it's a hidden gem that's for sure!
the chemistry, the writing, the plot, THE TROPE everything was soooooo good 10/10

....who knew I would ever read something like this
To get this out of the way this is a very funny manga especially Kyuyeun like bro was REALLY going through it. But at some point it stops being funny and gets annoying because... the relation ship is so toxic it gave me chemical burns. I can not explain how much Kimin ticked me off, he would not listen for shit. Which is a huge disappointment because really the comedy was peak in the beginning.
So, if you do still want to read this I would suggest reading up until the parents get involved. For me that was ... when the comedy just completely stopped. Both of the characters got quite annoying and static, specifically Kimin because I don't think he got an ounce of character development.

I don't understand why the hell these two like eachother when all their interactions suck ass. They have no actual onscreen chemistry, like at all.

At the start I liked it, especially how creepy Kimin was, I wasn't expecting him to be a full on yandere so I was laughing my ass off the more wacky shenanigans ensued just so that Kyuyeon doesn't get found out. Legitimately I was surprised how cartoonishly violent some chapters were. Then the two get together though and my enjoyment began to fade.

Their relationship is so BOOOORIIIIING.

We follow some of the basic plotlines and most cliche moments ever. Kyuyeon constantly gets ... into some kind of trouble and I'm supposed to feel sorry for him, but like, he's kind of a douche and I didn't enjoy his character all that much. I usually tend to enjoy yandere characters, even if their reason for obsession makes no sense, but Kimin also really just got less enjoyable after the relationship started IRL.

I decided to drop it the moment a love rival was introduced, because I find a love triangle doesn't work if the main couple doesn't make me root for it. The drama so far hasn't interested me either, so perhaps I'm missing out on the greatest rival ever but...I doubt it.
