Yesss I thought maybe it made me weird (?) that i wish Dohyun would escape from Sungho. A lot of comments were implying Dohyun deserves to feel the pain he inflicted on Sungho but in reality I think people forget rape is torture it is TORTURE and I wouldn't wish it upon anybody. And inflicting the same pain upon somebody who did you doesn't make you a better person, it like your just as bad.
To be honest I can't understand how he'd become like that, even with the things that happened between them in the past.
Exactly. Not all victims of emotional blackmail (or rape... or coercion...) become capable of inflicting the same (or worse) to the culprit.
And here's the thing too Dohyun never even raped Sungho, he had a choice to say no but he didn't. But does that make Dohyun any less of an asshole? No.
His motive is neither undertandable nor sane nor justified. As RainbowNoseBleed said, Sungho always had a choice. He is the one who put himself in a situation to get hurt. He could have said NO and walked away. Dohyun didn't tie him up and force him to do what he did. Personal responsibility does apply. If you go along with something you don't want to go along with when given a clear choice, that's on you. Your neediness is your own damn fault.
I agree with what you are saying, but in some ways this can but considered rape, because the victim in the first fiasco felt that if he do not have a sexual relationship with his friend, his friend would leave him. Making it seem like he was threatened, but in reality he still had a choice to not go though with the sexual acts. So I guess this can be perceived in two ways, but in the end the actions that both of them did are not acceptable. But I still want both of them to go their own ways (possiblypreferably to prison) and be happyヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
Please do not minimize rape. Rape is nonconsensual. You do not have a choice. You are TAKEN and you do not GIVE yourself in a rape. It's violent and it's a crime. If you can choose to walk away, it's not rape. So, no, it cannot be considered rape (in the high school situation). It's simply someone who wants sex and gives the other person the choice to give it to him or he'll leave. That in no way is coercion or rape.
It annoys me when people say that the kidnapper's actions are acceptable in this because of what the victim did in the past to the kidnapper. Yes it makes the kidnapper's motives understandable, but it does not make it right. Two wrongs do not make a right(づ￣ ³￣)づ
