this is what I'm saying all the time, yes, he didn't handle the break up well and I was also a little annoyed with the way it happened. however, I don't think anyone has a right to judge him because this kind of situation is not normal, it's devastating, and there is no right answer! Everyone is so smart, he should have done this, he shoudn't have done that, but if this happened irl (and probably smth similar have happened to someone at some point) no one knows what their choice would be and how they would handle it. I think he is the most tragic character in this story because he had to make every decision and he has to live with it for the rest of his life. Of course, from the perspective, we know he made a wrong decision, but he didn't have the insight we had. Yes, the MC had 5 years of his life stolen and the next thing he knows is that he lost the love of his life but Taejoo had to live during those 5 years, not knowing what have happened to his love of his life, struggling to find him, loose all the hope and start healing. Then he was presented with a choice if he should stay in a relationship with someone who supported him for the last 5 years (mind that he didn't know about him things that we know) or go back to his previous lover who dissapeared for 5 years and right when he finally moved on appeared to be alive (of course it wasn't the mc's fault, but he didn't have to go through all the processes of grief taejoon had too, doesn't mean his position is not tragic, but it's different)
So I wish people left the poor taejoon alone, his story is so sad and he also deserves happiness. Poor baby needs therapy. If the story was told from his perspective (meaning him as a MC, the comment sections would have looked completely different)

I feel bad for teajoo but also cannot stand by him. You suffered yeah, but would you be happy to find your childhood friend and post partner to be alive and safe? Even if he was being manipulated, how can you just treat a person just out of a coma like that. That is a no for me. He had five years to process and uke had none and immediate abandonment straight to the face.

5 years is long, but by that time you have at least collected your head and could think properly, like at that point you would be slightly sad and have already grieved. His reaction to him though it's so immature, like I imagine a parent having their lost child return to them being happy despite adopting a new one, something of that sort.

I don’t protect him, but his mental health was so vulnerable even know, not only Yoon need to have treatment but him too, just put yourself in his situation, he could be nice but that damn bitch just messed up and manipulated him and ruined his vulnerable mind, you can’t imagine his sorrow and pain, for me he’s the most tragic character from this manhwa, Yoon has a good option like Kwon but he never had this chance
Frankly saying I’m pity for Taejoo more than Yoon, all of you are pitying for him and hating or blaming Taejoo, but he’s the victime of this situation too, he was desperately waiting for Yoon and I’m sure he would continue to wait if that redhair bitch wouldn’t mess, like he hide the fact from Taejoo that Yoon was alive and incoma, he deceived him when Taejung asked if he raped him, although he was just drunken and didn’t do anything and that bitch yes he was raped him, so Taejoo felt guilty and took a responsibility for his actions that he even didn’t do, like why all of you are so cruel towards him? He’s good and decent guy yes he was rude to Yoon in the first chapters but just imagine his situation and his mental health like Yoon wasn’t normal and stable, I really like him so much but unfortunately in the novel will end up with Kwon and Taejoo will end up alone and will suffer although he doesn’t deserve this attitude, thanks god at least he broke up properly with this redhair bitch in the following chapters he will know that this bitch deceived him and it wasn’t rape, he met with Yoon and wanted to tell him everything but damn he just didn’t have an audacity to confess his genuine feelings that he always loved loves and will love only Yoon
