Rant-ish? In defence of Sung Ho

Reading the comments make me stressed cus like, leave him be, the response is very realistic and makes perfect sense. I'm speaking in defence of those bashing Sung Ho for his last statement / being unsure of the relationship.

Both men had always thought themselves to be straight, though it's pretty clear by now that neither cares too much for their bi(?) awakening. But their relationship is new, as they've said in the previous chapter, they kissed cus they 'went along w the moment'.

Love takes time to grow and it's something people have to work together for. Sometimes things don't work out and they've only been what? 'Together' in a sense for like a day at most. Also Sung-Ho looking out for his daughter's well-being first before anything else made sense in terms of his character and what we know of him so far but as a father, that's also a generally responsible stance to take.

Two men raising a child in a country side can be 50/50, and even those meaning well can come off insensitive. Understanding where they came from is one thing but it's another to risk a child's growth in said environment.

TLDR Sung Ho is perfectly in his right to put his daughter's well-being first in case the environment he's planning to raise her in aren’t welcoming of him and especially of her

    thanks for this i totally agree! i feel like a lot of BLs barely scrath the surface of what it might bs like to be queer esp in asia/korea, so this is actually refreshing to see as a manhwa/ga reader
