The early pages of Chapter 1 trick the reader into thinking this is a dark Yaoi (Boys' Love) drama. The art style is soft, the internal thoughts are melodramatic, and the framing suggests a story about a "cute stalker" winning the heart of a cold popular boy.
Through Sangwoo's character, the manhwa introduces the concept of a "stalker" who uses manipulation and charm to lure victims into his trap. Minsoo's innocence and trusting nature make him an ideal target for Sangwoo's sinister plans.
