I just don't like how he still want to mend his relationship with a mother who doesn't even try to meet or see him. She doesn't give a tiny bit of effort, even after knowing that her son live miserably, and keep on trying to erase his existance from her live. Even her step-daughter have to met with him to apologise because she felt guilty and try to justify the mother's crime -instead of the mother. He should've get the fact that his mother doesn't want to meet him no matter what because she's so afraid of losing her current happy life. She doesn't have even an ounce of consience yet he wants to meet her?
It's really painful to read that part ╥﹏╥
i am glad that he's starting to heal even a little. not gonna lie, just like everyone in the comments, i hate the mom as well. from shinwoo's perspective, i really understand why he said all that. really i do. but goodness, i really need that mom to know how much shinwoo has suffered, so she can feel guilty for all of her life. like ughhhhh... however, if that is what is going to take for shinwoo to be happy, so be it. he needs that happiness and all the burden lifted up. and what he can do is to let go the rope of the past. go shinwoo, go go! slowly and gradually be happy,
