• I ALMOST SKIPPED THIS, because it has mpreg tag, and King Hoshi??? But i was sold by domestic tag HAHA. And it feels cute because the synopsis said that jihoon has a child. So i thought, why not give it a shot, i can drop it if it's not my cup of tea.
• AND THAT WAS MY BEST DECISIONS EVER. I dont think it's slow pace, but more like.. flat. I love this kind of story, less drama and conflict also it's cute imagining they own a small family like that. The story is quite obvious but i love the character development as well as the plot.

• i was kinda worry on how the writer gonna end it. but i must give my 4 thumbs up for her. every detail and the phasing from one life to another, the flow and how she elaborated the characters’ feeling, it almost feel like you live thru it.
• also the pain… i was sobbing

• so, just read… it actually gave me lots of new perspective because not many au take this kind of setting and i would say she literally build her own universe for this story.
• also, for you who is a sucker for happy ending, this one is for you.
