Exactly! Perfect example. It doesn't mean you feel bad in a bad way. Not as if the person is useless or whatever. Helplessness is a thing. There is so much one can do without damaging the other person in the process. Words dont help all the time and actions like being there, hugging, caressing and kissing is the most comforting one can give. And it does help. The rest is up to the person in conflict.
He feels bad because he cannot heal him. Inwoo has to deal with his issues, to heal himself. His partner feels bad for him because he is helpless at the moment and all he can do is be there for him. What is so wrong about that? All he can do is reassure Inwoo that he loves him and will always be there for him. Never leave his side.
