Description
7 years of unrequited love and another 7 years of relationship. Kyeoul believed that the love completed over a long time with Ithae would continue forever and beyond. But. “Looks like he’s out with that person again today.” There was a reason why Ithae was diagnosed with fatigue syndrome. Meetings with another person, continuing since last spring. Ithae no longer smiled when looking at Kyeoul, and Kyeoul simply resigned himself to looking at such an Ithae. “If it’s not fate, we need to break up.” For both Ithae’s sake and his own. Holding onto each other was wrong. Rather, we needed to let go and at least preserve our memories. That brilliant youth once upon a time. So that the past, which burned with a bright fire, would no longer become pitiful. Kwon Ithae (32). Lived a monotonous life. Until meeting Kyeoul. After meeting Kyeoul, his monotonous world began to move. With trembling excitement and beauty. This thrilling feeling that love gives cannot last forever. Choi Kyeoul (32). Even 7 years of relationship turned out to be useless. Constant communication and meetings with a person who is not me. Cold attitude, different from before. There were no more reasons to desperately cling to this relationship. I just needed to let go, but somehow it turned out to be so difficult. With age, he absolutely couldn’t stand fatigue. When to read: When you want to see the outcome of love irretrievably destroyed by fatigue. Quote for empathy: “Ah, we need to break up.”

My Thoughts on Fatigue Syndrome: The Lassitude
Okay, let's dive into "Fatigue Syndrome: The Lassitude." This one's been on my radar, and after digging into some initial reactions, I've got some thoughts. It's definitely a drama-heavy, character-focused story, so going in prepared for some emotional rollercoaster is key.
First Impressions
The premise itself is intriguing – a modern-day romance tangled with themes of depression ("fatigue syndrome") and misunderstandings. The multiple POV approach also suggested a deep dive into the minds of both main characters, which I always appreciate. I was hoping for a character-driven story that would really explore the complexities of their relationship and individual struggles.
What Works Well
The novel seems to excel at creating melodrama. If you're looking for a story that will tug at your heartstrings and leave you emotionally invested (even if frustrated), this might be your cup of tea. It seems the author does a good job of portraying the male leads in a way that makes their inner turmoil palpable.
Areas of Concern
However, some of the initial impressions I gathered raised some red flags. The biggest issue seems to be the characters' actions and motivations. The MC's unilateral decision to break up, based on assumptions rather than communication, feels unrealistic and frustrating. Similarly, the ML's inability to acknowledge his mistakes and his resentment towards the MC's perceived normalcy creates a dynamic that's difficult to root for. The lack of communication and the characters' seemingly self-destructive tendencies might make it hard for some readers to connect with them. It's one thing to have flawed characters, but it's another when their flaws actively push readers away.

Final Verdict
"Fatigue Syndrome: The Lassitude" seems like a story that's aiming for high drama and emotional intensity. While it might succeed in that aspect, the characters' flawed behaviors and the potential for frustrating misunderstandings could be a barrier for some readers. I'd recommend going in with tempered expectations and perhaps waiting for more chapters to be released before fully committing to the story. Personally, I'm on the fence, but the potential for compelling character development might be enough to keep me cautiously optimistic.
