Painful but Desirable — Chapter 20

Oh, Painful, but Desirable (Official) Chapter 20 has readers absolutely buzzing with a mix of sweet longing and gentle heartache! 🥰 Many are deeply empathetic, feeling the pangs of Hayeon’s unrequited love and silent pain. It's truly moving to see so many relate to her struggle, wishing her happiness and calling her incredibly sweet.

Readers can't get enough of Hayeon's undeniable cuteness, while also appreciating the male lead's tender and gentle nature – a refreshing change from typical cold MLs! However, our guy is definitely getting some playful flak for being a bit dense! 🤦‍♀️ "How is it not obvious she loves you?!" many wonder. Despite his perceived cluelessness, there's a strong feeling he's slowly falling, or perhaps even liked her from the start!

The chapter has everyone melting, shipping them hard, and eagerly awaiting the "confession arc" and the inevitable drama. While some are still pondering where the "pain" in the title comes from, others are already feeling that slight ache. A few thoughtful readers also point out Hayeon's original financial motive, asking for a dose of reality. Overall, a beautiful, painful ride that feels just like a Kdrama! 💖
