YES INWOO!!! Set those boundaries!! Dump his ass!! IM SO PROUD OF YOU 😭❤ And YOU Jih...

you’ve done incredible damage to the literacy of other readers and i beg you to do more research, reread, and actually take in what would happen if no one ever crossed a boundary when someone is basically self harming and close to death. inwoo will die if mc is soft on him. what are boundaries if your partner is already dead because you didn’t harshly intervene or cross lines when it came to their health ?

Jiho was told so many times how damaging he was being as Inwoo BEGGED him to not do that. I understand that he wanted to help but Inwoo told him time and time again that it was hurting him, that it had triggered his trauma, that it harmed him to the point where he was regressing. Jiho’s actions directly contributed to Inwoo’s current conditions. You’re doing damage to the literacy of others by ignoring Jiho’s abuse towards Inwoo. Other readers see those messages and it could result in them allowing people to hurt them to stay in their lives

Inwoo would have more than likely not have been in this dire state and suicidal if Jiho had not continuing pushed his buttons and triggered him despite being begged not to. I don’t care if his intentions were to help him. He was told that they were harming Inwoo and he continued to do them over and over and over again

abuse…? yea this conversation ain’t going anywhere your media literacy is cooked lmao. you can’t just throw around words you don’t know the meaning of. not gonna bother refuting with plot explanations because the webtoon literally does it for me. please reread. over exaggerating and blindly agreeing with whatever inwoo does is where you lost me. inwoo was already suicidal and starving because he is codependent on jiho and feels inferior to him. he’s not getting worse because of jiho he’s getting worse because he himself is spiraling but only one person is interfering with his mental health crisis AND HES SHUTTING THEM OUT . he was regressing mostly because he’s continuing to ignore the root of his trauma and self wallowing seeing his partner improve alone

And your compassion for victims is cooked. I have dealt with emotional and mental abuse LIKE THIS. I have experienced THIS. I know what I’m talking about. I have depression, I’ve had suicidal ideation and attempts and do you know what doesn’t help? Triggering me and continuing to do so when I tell you “hey this is a trigger please don’t do this”. That is what Jiho has continued to do to Inwoo. Being told over and over that this is damaging and continuing to repeat that behavior IS ABUSE

Inwoo is having a mental health crisis. Take him to actual resources and/or the hospital. DO NOT continue to retrigger him especially when he’s stated that it’s actively harming him. I don’t blindly agree with all of Inwoo’s actions. I do however believe him when he says “this is triggering and damaging to me and you’re ignoring it”. Helping people heal the deepest traumas in their lives requires professional help and Jiho continuously decided that his help would good enough. He knows that he can’t handle Inwoo but would rather blindly throw his trauma at him instead of taking him to get real help

you realize you’re just projecting right. u are not the only person who’s gone through things, in case you think im pulling shit from my ass, but many of the points are just close to home criticisms or observations from your own experience > seeing the webtoon at face value. u forget inwoo didn’t want to seek professional help such as therapy and made mc feel shitty for it right + his complex prevents him. literally no one is saying that making him and his mom meet were the best options but yall are ignoring his refusal to seek resources or the hospital IN THE FIRST PLACE then only blaming the one person who is using any and all means to help his partner. “blindly throw trauma” and it’s literally a partner who is grasping at straws to do anything to improve inwoos health even if it means crossing boundaries because his mom seemed like a better option instead of the real last resort of immediate hospitalization. he’s being given chances before any is taken away. being told to address your trauma when you’re at your lowest is not abuse ??

i feel like you’re ignoring most of the context and applying your situation to theirs because there’s similarities. he’s been avoidant the entire time of his issues with his mom and partner and it’s causing him to spiral + self sabotage. mc is not a mind reader and inwoo hasn’t fully shared the complexities that’s been stuck with him

Neither of us seem interesting in budging on our opinions so I’m just gunna label this as a ‘agree to disagree’ and dip out
