Bro I read comments after this and I’m glad others agree on disliking the first couple as people for how they treated jaeha, my heart just breaks for him so bad, and I hate how a lot of them acted like he doesn’t deserve help or kindness from ANYONE to get out of his situation just over that one mistake, like he deserves to stay being abused, hate kiwoon’s bf for it cause why are you deciding hyun shouldn’t be helping him either?
bro I get how his victim would wanna cut ties, even still it feels like for kiwoon it was way less about the beign hit incident and more about the continuous feeling of being drained while being the only support for an abused friend but even still his parting words were way too damn cruel, yes you were a middle schooler that shouldn’t have been the only support of an abuse victim but jaeha isn’t to blame,,, he was a middle schooler too who else could he rely on??? No adult gave a shit, he’s not an adult to have any options to get a therapist and not trauma dump on you, y’all were the only ones he had, what’s the alternative, just shrivel up and die? Oh it hurt you to see him bruised every day? Well guess who has it worse? The least you could do was end it neutrally, telling him it wasn’t his fault but it was hard on you and you can’t continue that cycle but instead he decided to end it putting the blame on jaeha…..
I feel you completely. I just couldn't understand why the story was painting such words with that much justification. I get Kiwoon wanted to cut ties with Jaeha once and for all, but my GOD the way they continue to antagonize someone who already was out of their life pissed me off so much. I felt for him so badly, nobody was there for him! Nobody saw him for more than being a victim or a nonsense or worst a psycho. Why it was okay for him to re victimized Jaeha and why everyone was okay with it??? I will never understand
Bro I loved this level headed little shit glasses guy but it got kinda iffy when It turned out he stole hyuns bookmark, and then lashed out at jaeha when he wanted to return it to hyun, like they clearly had a power dynamic where he was above jaeha, he was the one that made a bridge between him and getting help and a relationship with hyun, that scene felt icky cause it was like he was threatening to take it all away and all over what? A bookmark? When jaeha is in the right and u STOLE it from hyun? Meh…..
First couple is kinda average manhwa but also what kind of person is he to immediately assume jaeha hurt the cat? To think he killed it? Like you know he called hyun for help about it, why the fuck would he do that if he was some psycho cat killer? It’s one thing feeling drained being the therapist of your abused friend, it’s an entirely different thing jumping to an assumption that he’s a psycho cat killer when you’re seeing him in panic covering a dead cat with his jacket with his ear ripped and dripping, like man I feel bad for jaeha, what the actual fuck is his home life, how does he have such a psycho family, step brother is a literal psycho but what about his dad?/?? What the fuck kind of parent is he to not only not intervene but punish him on top of that? Lock him in storage for FOUR DAYS? And the piece of shit step mom that at least has a tiniest bit of morals to know it’s wrong but not a drop more to do shit about it?? And every single damn adult in his life that see him bruised head to toe every day? Why the fuck are these two middle schoolers the only people that give a shit? Bro even the teacher sees him and he’s like “oh your parents called, have you w=ran from home? Oh well they asked u to go back so make sure to go okay?” BRO DIE YOU MF PIECE OF SHIT, YOU CALL YOURSELF A CHILD EDUCATOR? WTFFFFF i literally wanna pull my damn hair out,
And it pissed me offfff how the first couple’s boyfriend started shit with him too when he found out jaeha staying with hyun, like bitch this has nothing to do with you, whatever happened was between him and kiwoon, and they had a convo and settled it, he has to stay away from kiwoon and he’s doing just that, it’s none of your damn business if hyun decides to stay in contact with him, the fuck are you running your mouth talking about how hyun must be feeling guilty, how “you’re tryna make hyun feel sorry for you” and “you shouldn’t have said shit to begin with” bro YOU started it??? The fuck do you mean “now you’re dragging hyun into this too” he’s not the softie your boyfriend is and he can make his own choices thanks, acting as if you were very friendly with him in the first place and not just tangentially associated with him cause he’s kiwoon friend…. and this went beyond “you hurt my bf in the past so I’m gonna keep you away from him”, no he started shit with jaeha on his own….
And then hyun pissed me off too when he lashed out at him after jaeha was forcibly taken home, and hyuns lended phone destroyed etc, like bro it’s not like you’re a stranger and don’t know what the worst that could be happening to him is… you KNOW there’s a fat chance he was taken home and abused and his phone taken away so why are you getting all passive aggressive on him like “would it kill tou to contact me, I kept calling blah blah blah look how bad I felt not getting in contact with you” instead of hearing him out first to know he was kidnapped and locked inside and contact cut off, if I didn’t know better I’d think he thinks jaeha was sipping matcha and eating strawberry cakes at cafes, bro come on this goes beyond “oh I’m just not as perceptive and gentle as kiwoon and glasses guy I don’t notice these things” bruh…. BRUH…. I also hate how his help was conditional on whether there was potential of getting together with him in the future or not
