I absolutely hated the 2 main characters in this story. For their selfishness, for their lack of basic empathy towards other people, for their stubborn insistence in obsession disguised as "some wholesome otherworldly love". But the thing is, I also loved them for the exact same reasons. I just couldn't forget them even a couple days after finishing the whole thing, they're perharps not meant to be loved or admired but they still are? Someway?

- Jaehee for how he loves violence and forgives all evil aspects of Dai but still insists in playing the good boy, good friend while being extremely hypocritical. For how he goes to his (traumatized) ex-girlfriend and childhood friend and tell her she needs to put on a fake smile and pretend like nothing happened to her so he can feel good about himself for dating a f* criminal without much guilt.

- Dai for how he represents a lot of guys that exist in real life, who hide behind their rich and influencial families to wipe their asses everytime they do absolutely nothing but make life hard for everyone around them, how he questions the "system" but nothing he truly does stands out of this system, he simply chooses to commit crimes and be violent and unproductive, and call himself revolutionary. He is a real villain, and to see a character being unapologetic like this and having the story be told under the point of view of someone (also unapologeticly) in love with a character like this... Now THAT was a revolutionary thing.

- A mention of honor for Eunhyung, for I cared about this character from chapter 1 till she leaves us. I cried and got nervous for her, I hated Dai and Jaehee with all my might for her and I feel like her tragedy truly makes up for protagonist material. The heartbreak was real for this one.

Let Dai was a very gloomy and hard to read story for me. I didn't see it as romance, for I couldn't root for the main couple to be together or happy at all. I truly wished them hell LMAO. But as hurtful as it was, it was beautiful. Everytime I'd want to tear my hair seeing Jaehees almost pathological attachment to Dai or Dai's complete lack of true caring for Jaehee but ridiculous possessitiviy, I also had a really weird warm feeling of admiration. Their chaos was so, so ugly, it actually had beauty in it...

Now, about the ending, I gotta admit that it feels a little like the author kinda of abandoned the story.

Overall, the manhwa is really worthy reading, the plot and characters will pull you into the hollercoaster of feeling along with them, you will suffer, you will question and admire things and have a heartwrenching feeling all throughout the story.
