Wrong Synoposis? PS: don't make plans with Kaitoon

The first 3 episodes I genuinely thought we were following Kaitoon as our main lead, only to read the synoposis and realize this was supposed to be about Valen??
That definitely never comes across, the first 20 minutes we follow Kaitoon as he goes through his daily life before he encounters Valen.. from Kaitoons perspective. We never get any background on Valen either, why he is in debt, why he possibly had a gambling habit (which is only hinted at in 1 sentence during the entire show) it never gets mentioned that his birthday is on Valentine's day, so I'm not sure why that was of importance in the synoposis either?? We even celebrated Kaitoon's birthday, but never Valen's? We follow Kaitoon as he is simultaneously getting to know this other guy Nont as well as Valen. Which gives you this very one-sided love triangle where it is painfully obvious Nont was never even an option to begin with. The one thing this entire show taught me was that you should never make plans with Kaitoon, since he won't remember it anyway. Literally every single time (I'm not kidding, this happened literally every time without a fail) Kaitoon forgot he made plans with someone and just never shows up. He doesn't even bother cancelling either... Poor Nont.
Due to the way everything is set up I'm not even sure why Kaitoon would be seen as the guy that teaches Valen about compassion and tenderness? Like where? That just never happened in general. Sure he isn't a bad guy, but he isn't particularly compassionate or tender at all. He is just kinda there, minding his own business/ being self sufficient and barely interacting with other people. Noticed how I can only talk about Kaitoon? Yeah well turns out we genuinely follow most of his life, I'm not even sure what Valen does in his free time if I'm honest with you. Nothing in this Synoposis was something I saw in the show at all and it's a pretty short and straight forward blurb at that.

Now if you leave the Synoposis out of it, it was a decently enjoyable show, apart from the Nont parts that just became painful to watch. I would have rather had them keep things platonic with Nont or just scrapped his entire character since he never was part of the story, he was more like a prop to fill some gaps in Kaitoons free time?
And lastly on a positive note, let's be honest here, why did them holding hands in the end give me butterflies though!
It was such a small simple gesture and yet genuinely impactful with the way the show was set up.
I like how everything feels kinda slow burn, but you still are made aware of Valen's interest in Kaitoon the entire way through. Nothing between them was rushed and felt pretty organic which made the last scene work beautifully.
