I was genuinely curious about this too, coz I can't speak a word of Korean and when I read the raws (via trans app) it seemed that the general audience did not like it, but then it could've been just a cultural thing where they say something but mean the opposite- coz how dafuq do you explain the author's thought process for plotting, storyboarding, sketching, and finalizing this crappy finale? I'd somehow get it if there's really a HUGE demand for this trope there (but lowkey feel sad for such trash standards if true). The determiner really is going to be how the author proceed with s2-- if they backpedal with the SA, that would mean they tanked and it really was just bad writing; but if they doubled down on being even more toxic, then that action was intentional and there was a clear demand/market for doing it.
and the Korean audience actually likes this ending??? WTF (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
