keeping everything aside, what was Woosu even doing in the library when he caught Eui Ju writing BL?

It does have an exaggerated BL romance that plays out in the FL’s imagination + she has an innocent crush on her maths teacher, but that’s pretty much it. So yeah, there is no REAL romance in here, it’s mostly a goofy comedy.

I know that most of you in the comments are worried about the ‘romance’, but to be honest, I’m pretty sure they won’t end up together or anything. But I do believe that the writers want us to ship them (for the views, of course).

While it is cringe, the fl’s crush on the maths feels like the most normal thing to happen in the show, especially after that BL novel pact between the characters. And it’s one sided so it’s not harmful. The math teacher does not reciprocate her feelings, and if she’ll confess, he’ll turn her down and will urge her to focus on her studies.

The dream twist just undoing the entirely of the show was bad. this could have worked if they had taken the legally romance route by spending at least a few episodes in the new timeline where the leads could have navigated their imperfect lives together. The overall message of the show would have been much more impactful.
