Dohwa never thought much about his job at the laundrymat. It was just a way to earn some extra money while he focused on his studies. But everything changed the day he noticed Y/N. She was a regular customer, always coming in on Saturdays with a smile that could light up the room.

'Who is she?' Dohwa wondered every time he saw her. There was something about Y/N that drew him in, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

One Saturday, as he struggled with a heavy basket, Y/N rushed over to help him. Their hands brushed, and Dohwa felt a jolt of electricity. He looked up and met her eyes, feeling his cheeks heat up.

"Thank you," he said, trying to keep his voice steady.

"No problem," Y/N replied, her own cheeks tinged with pink. "I come here every Saturday, so if you ever need help, just let me know."

'She's so kind,' Dohwa thought, watching her walk away. 'Maybe a fangirl or something.'

Weeks passed, and Dohwa found himself looking forward to Saturdays more than ever. Y/N's presence made his shifts at the laundromat enjoyable. But one day, everything changed. He was hanging out with Su Ae, a friend he had a crush on, when he noticed Y/N watching them from a distance. Her expression was unreadable, but Dohwa felt a pang of guilt.

'Does she think there's something between me and Su Ae?' he wondered. He didn't have time to dwell on it, though, as Su Ae soon made it clear that she didn't see him that way.

From that day on, Y/N began to distance herself from him. She still came to the laundromat, but their conversations were brief and awkward. Dohwa noticed the change but assumed Y/N was just having a bad day.

'Maybe she's going through something,' he thought, deciding not to press her about it.

One rainy Saturday, Dohwa sat alone in the laundromat, feeling the weight of Su Ae's rejection. He tried to focus on his work, but his mind kept drifting back to Y/N. Suddenly, she was there, her presence like a ray of sunshine on a gloomy day.

"Hey, are you okay?" she asked gently.

Dohwa looked up, his eyes red from crying. "Su Ae rejected me," he confessed, his voice breaking.

Y/N's expression softened, and she sat beside him, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Dohwa. But it's going to be okay. You're an amazing person, and you'll find someone who sees that."

'Why does she care so much?' Dohwa wondered, feeling a warmth spread through his chest. "Thank you, Y/N. You always know how to make me feel better."

As the weeks went by, Dohwa and Y/N grew closer. He found himself looking forward to their conversations and the way she made him feel understood. One evening, as they walked home from the laundromat, Dohwa stopped and turned to Y/N.

"Y/N, there's something I need to tell you."

Y/N's eyes widened with curiosity. "What is it?"

"I've realized that I've been blind to what's been in front of me all along," Dohwa said, taking her hands in his. "Y/N, I have feelings for you. You've always been there for me, and I can't imagine my life without you."

Y/N's eyes sparkled with joy. "Dohwa, I feel the same way. I've liked you for so long."

Dohwa smiled and pulled her into a gentle hug. "I'm so glad to hear that."

From that day on, Dohwa and Y/N's relationship blossomed. Dohwa made sure to show Y/N how much he cared. He would surprise her with her favorite snacks, leave sweet notes in her laundry basket, and always make sure she felt loved and appreciated.

'She's the best thing that's ever happened to me', Dohwa thought one day as they sat in the park. He looked at Y/N with a tender smile. "You know, Y/N, I never thought I'd find someone as amazing as you. Thank you for being my rock."

Y/N blushed and leaned her head on his shoulder. "And thank you for being mine, Dohwa."

operation true love have lost so much of its original plot it’s sad (｡╯︵╰｡)

like the love points, the ra-im and suae drama (which has been way overlooked imo and dropped for no reason at all), the minho thing also, along with the tension has simply been lost and it’s sad :((((… otl has lost so much potential because so much of its plot has been either rushed or dropped and i’m so disappointed :(

[vampireg1rl]

[snowangelsyndrome]

AAAAAAAHHHHH THEY ARE BACK !!! BUT I DONT LIKE THE WAY THE STORY IS PROCEEDING AS OF NOW... the author is on a hiatus again and I really hope she doesn't spoil the plotline !!!!! I AM SOO EXCITED FOR WHAT SHE HAS IN STORE FOR THE MANHWA ASSJABSNEKWKSK

"I hate Su Ae! She's too stupid!!"

I respect your opinion :3 *throws a banana peel at you so you can slip and facepalm to the ground*

Now that eunhyuk and sooae are coworkers, we have a chance of seeing this happen for real👀 (I know they're not on speaking terms anymore thanks to the author fucking up with the timeskip and making a mess out of eunhyuk's character. BUT I want to be optimistic)

Ra-im from Operation True Love

Unpopular opinion: I love her. Ra-im did things I can’t excuse, but that makes her so interesting. She flirted with Minu and convinced him to cheat because he was Su-ae's boyfriend. Su-ae lives her dream. She has loving parents, genuine relationships, and actually loves herself. She isn’t the conventional idea of perfect, but that’s because we see her for all she is. Ra-im sees her as this girl who gives and receives endless love. It doesn’t matter that she’s unpopular or that she has a small circle because she gets love from the people that matter: her family and friends. Su-ae actually has more friends than Ra-im if you think about it. She doesn’t rush for love because she doesn’t need to. She doesn’t feel the need to be in the center because she gets enough attention from the right people. On the other hand, Ra-im has a large circle of “friends”, but she doesn’t actually care about them. In fact, the only people she loves are her family. Her love isn’t fuzzy and warm. It’s prickly, and it burns. Su-ae doesn’t have many people who love her, but the people that do love her wholeheartedly. Ra-im is the opposite, in which she has tons of contacts on her phone but no one who actually cares about her. She has so many people, but she’s none of their favorites. She has to steal love because no one gives it. The only person who favors her is Su-ae, and I’m 90% sure Su-ae is her favorite too. She doesn’t want to hurt Su-ae, she wants to be on the same level as her. Since she can’t climb up to her level, she’s bringing Su-ae down with her. She loves Su-ae, but it’s painful because that’s how love is. It doesn’t make the world better, and it doesn’t make it worse. Ra-im loves Su-ae because she’s the only one who cherishes her, but she hates her for that same reason. Ra-im is well-known, not well-loved. She chases attention because love is too much to ask for. She is liked by everyone but loved by only one, and she loses it because of her mistakes. The reason Su-ae has such few but solid bonds is because she’s herself. Ra-im has always played the role of a perfect girl. She doesn’t know how to get off of her pedestal. Meanwhile, Su-ae roams freely with the people she loves. I don't love her because of her actions. I love her because she's so well-written.

Daddy Eunhyuk is finally back after a decade 🌝 check out more details on my blog: Operation True Love Chapter 107 release date: Eunhyuk Return

[dianalillian]

Operation: True Love Season 1 just ended. I really thought we wouldn’t get a confession until next season, but we did! I feel bad for Dohwa, but Su-ae and Eunhyeok are just meant to be 🥹

Dohwa bb, you can be with me instead 😭

[nxx-jordiepord]

Operation True Love Theory!! Spoilers for recent chapters!!

Guys what if we're getting a "Diana, what letters??" moment with Eunhyeok and Sooae??

Bc I feel like that's the only way to get the fans back on Team Eunhyeok as opposed to Team Dohwa.

What if Eunhyeok has been trying to contact Sooae for all those years they spent apart but for some reason it never got to her?? What if that's why he's glaring at her when he sees her on a date?? What if that's why he was talking to a girl that looks like one of the girls in their old class?? What if it's just one big miscommunication trope??

This is all just a theory but I couldn't think of any other way that they could make the fans stick around for Eunhyeok... Hopefully it's something good bc even though I'm only following this story through fan content I'm still really invested and want it to be good😭
