I always thought he was born rich, like a silver spoon kid or something cause remember the early chapters how he treated people, especially how he treat Dan in the earlier chapters if it's involving money... Or when he saw the place Dan lived (i think in the early chapter, he said something like "how can you live in a house that looked like this?" When he saw Dan's place before)
Maybe the reason Dan's way of living irked him so much like annoyed the shit out of him is not because he's a rich spoiled kid (like what i thought before) but it's because looking at Dan make him remember of how he used to live in the same environment as Dan (being poor and born without privilege) especially Dan is not the type to put on a "fight" with someone, Dan and Jaekyung have a different approach of how to cope.
The reason why when he saw Dan way living and how he become alcoholic just gave him a war flashback of how he used to live in similiar environment or condition... Jaekyung's environment before is full of people being violent, alcoholic, junkies, no wonder seeing Dan's depressive episode when he fall into become alcoholic somehow make him feel angry cause he just doesn't know how to express his emotions.
Children who grow up in such an environment always have complex emotions, but somehow their feelings are only anger and rage, like sometimes they don't even know or can't explain why they full of anger... (Kinda SPOILER a bit but somehow when i wrote this topic abt "how a kid can be full of anger" it makes me remember about Kotoha's past from the manga wind breaker )
