right? tbh the most expected response from her would've been her spreading rumours and getting the whole village on his ass or smth.. but at the same time if she truly had his best interests at heart she should've talked to him instead of going behind his back and crossing his boundaries like that :/
Sure but still doesn't excuse her behaviour so people have the right to get angry at her
That doesn't make homophobia and doxxing someone's personal information okay just cause they're from rural Korea
I’m replying as someone who lives in a big city in Asia, the homophobia is still rampant here, and a lot of the people I see and interact with are equally as ignorant as the girl in this story. As a queer person myself I am in constant fear of being outed. This is unfortunately my, and a lot of other queer people’s reality. Imagine being in a rural town in Asia, this is only going to be several times worse.
I’m not saying it does, I’m saying that we can’t expect everyone to be accepting of their relationship, especially coming from a town where most elders have probably raised the youth with the mentality of finding queer existence as something wrong. What she did is definitely wrong, but there has to be some nuance when you approach a topic like this especially considering the setting of the story
So what? You want us to feel sorry for her or something? No one gets a pass to discriminate against others just cause people around them do it. Everyone reading this expects these country bumpkin side characters to be homophobic as hell, that does NOT mean it's acceptable behavior to give out a man's personal info without consent so he stops being gay and starts dating women.
People not only is this set in a rural middle of nowhere Aging population it’s set in KOREA most people there are homophobic, yall need to remember the location of this story rather than impose your own familiar background onto it.
