he only regretted being a big fucking bastard after he realized he was one and had just lost everything he had tried to get back. saying you feel bad for him and then continuing to put he almost raped and killed someone is bizarre
I mean... Humans only know appreciation through regret, half of the time. And some second chances don't appear in places we wanted them to. I don't feel bad for him for being the asshole that he ever was, because he did all of that on his own accord.
(pressed send before I could finish) but it's always sad to see a teen making bad choices that they'll suffer the consequences of until their adulthood, or even till death.
Just gonna go out there and say it; I feel bad for Jihyun.
Sure, he fucked himself over for manipulating his best friend, harassing so many people to tie Chiwoo to him, raping him, almost killing him two fucking times and gave Chiwoo so much mental trauma that he doesn't deserved.
But if his father was not a fucking bastard, and that he actually have someone that tells him how he should do things and patiently guides him through his lost teenage days, would any of that depraved things happen at all?
I just think that he never got anything that he ever wanted. Well, he did, for once. But he royally fucked that up for himself and who's gonna suffer the regret for the entirety of his life while he live the life he so desperately wanted to get rid of? Jihyun.
Don't get me wrong, Chiwoo and Kyujin are the best thing that could ever happen. No matter how sad I feel for Jihyun, I don't think them being together is the way to end things correctly, and props to the author for portraying such a simple plot so effective and realistic.
Life is unfair, and you have to fight for your own happiness. True, in Jihyun's case, he might never will be able to. But I wished he do. Because even if he was a big fucking bastard, he regretted ever being one.
