Are we reading the same story?
lol I was thinking the same thing
"victim complex" except he is actually a victim that has been getting exploited so that his "family" could extort what they want from him( due to him now being married to a rival family in order to get information) and then leave him bc that is all he amounts to at the end of the day for being defective.
Did you skip the parts where the other one developed that complex you are referring to because he was literally treated that way his entire life. Nothing changed from when he was adopted to adulthood.
Being yelled at doesn't excuse corporate espionage. Y'all would never let someone steal from you just because they're dad was a mean guy... But you're somehow fine with them stealing from other people. You completely lack empathy and you don't even realize it, lol.
These are both horrible people. They have been treating each other like garbage. There has been constant disrespect between the two of them. But at least the top feels bad about it. The bottom has no regrets and would do it again, he did do it again.
Are you stupid or dumb? We very much have empathy which is why we can see that Sejin was not the villain it's you who lacks empathy idiot. I mean seriously, do you hear yourself man? First of all we NEVER said stealing was okay, sure yes stealing is horrible i agree, but he stole because in his mind Ido was going to eventually ditch him and he wanted to steal from Ido because his dad would be happy about it and wouldn't abandon him. Anyone who has actually read the story would be able to tell you that. He only stole because he felt either way kwon ido was going to abandon him and in his head his family wasn't which ended up obviously being false since they abandoned him either way according to this chapter that you didn't read properly. Second of all you clown, Sejin only did it again because unlike fucking ido he didn't get his memories back from their previous life! Do you actually read? Are you rage baiting us? Cause honestly if I were you I would delete this comment, you look like a fucking fool. Sejin did it again because he didn't have memories of doing it before, Ido felt bad because he remembers everything and mind you in the past he didn't know about all sejins hardships, so in this new life he worked hard to obviously make it up to sejin because he had played a role in Sejin commiting s*icide and we can OBVIOUSLY tell from this chapter that Sejin felt horrible for stealing Kwon Idos documents!! So in conclusion first of all you're not reading and analysing the story properly second of all we never said stealing is okay we are more focused to the reason why he stole the documents which as I stated earlier is because he didn't want his family to abandon him. I'm telling you this again because you seem to clearly have an issue with reading properly, so please. Read this story again and just delete this comment to save yourself from looking like a fool and if you read the story again please analyse it
I was thinking the same lmao
I am being genuine and not trolling. I'm also not trying to attack you personally. My writing style can come off as harsh but I'm really not harsh, at least I'm not harsh to real people like you. I'm harsh to characters because they aren't real and don't have feelings. I'm also harsh to thieves because thieves are scumbags and deserve scorn.
So what you're saying is it's okay to steal if you benefit personally from it. "He only stole because he thought he was going to benefit from it because he thought his father would reward him" is what you've said over and over again. Like somehow personally benefiting from a theft makes the theft okay.
He didn't steal to save a child or because he was starving. He did it because he thought he would be rewarded. He ended up getting played because no one wants a thief. Now he's getting rejected by his husband because no one wants a thief.
He played stupid games and won stupid prizes.
He even refused to confess to his crime because he wanted to continue to benefit from his relationship with his husband. He didn't even come clean because he thought he would benefit more for longer if he kept quiet. He thought if he confessed that his relationship would be over and he didn't want that for himself even though he knew it was the right thing for his husband, his victim.
He has made the selfish choice every time he's been presented with a choice. He has not once, not even once, thought about anyone but himself. Even in his second life he never once thought about anyone but himself. Every single thing the Omega does in this story is because he thinks it will benefit himself.
I don't know how you don't see that. He stole because he's selfish. He didn't confess to his theft because he's selfish. Everything he's done is because he's selfish.
It totally sucks that his dad was mean to him. Emotional abuse is incredibly difficult to recover from. Most people that suffer from abusive parents don't grow up to be thieves. Most people, even people that have traumatic pasts, aren't selfish pieces of shit.
I think you may be reading the wrong story, lol.
The Omega stole from his husband because he thought he would personally benefit from it. He thought he would be rewarded so he stole.
He didn't steal to save a child. He didn't steal because he was starving. He didn't steal because it was something he was entitled to (like stealing something back that was stolen from you originally).
He stole because he thought his father would reward him.
He had many many chances to confess to his theft and attempt to make it right. He chose not to confess and not to make it right. Even after his father betrayed him he did not confess because he thought he would benefit more from not confessing. He thought that if he confessed his relationship with his husband would be over and he wanted to continue benefiting from his relationship for as long as possible.
Even his choice to not confess was because he thought he would benefit more from not confessing.
Every time the Omega has been presented with a choice he has chosen the most selfish choice. It doesn't matter how much that choice may hurt other people, he doesn't care, he will look at the consequences to other people and the consequences to himself and he will pick whatever option he thinks will benefit him the most.
That is villain behavior.
Tbh I like your opinions and explanations. When I think about it, Sejin was given not once but multiple chance to tell Ido what he wanted from him. Ido himself even asked what he wants a few times since Ido is used to people taking advantage of him due to his position/status. Also to note that their marriage was initiated for business/political purposes, not out of love nor trust. Thus, for love to grow sincerely within a short time of knowing the other is impossible unless both sides works on it by trusting and being honest to build a relationship. While Sejin never ever(!) deserved what happened to him after the truth comes out about him stealing the project data for his father and the lack of affection he experienced while living with his shity family, he is not exactly a saint. So yeah, it is just what it is. Karma bites Sejin and regrets follows Ido. But at least they are given second chance to fix it and mend their relationship. What about us? Nothing beats a jet2 holiday
I just don't like how the story and the comments frame Sejin add this completely innocent and completely faultless saint who has never done anything wrong.
He's the reason his marriage fell apart and his first life. He didn't deserve any of the abuse. He especially doesn't deserve the rape that's coming. He deserved to be divorced and abandoned.
No one in the comment section would stay married to someone who stole from them and showed absolutely no remorse... But somehow they think it's okay that this filthy little thief stole from his husband.
Neither of them deserve a second life. It's never the poor person working all day as a social worker helping kids and volunteering all night at soup kitchens who gets a second chance at life. It's always the rich entitled thieves and the rich entitled rapists, lol.
Ok I totally understand what it is that ur saying and it does have validity to it. I think a lot of ppl do. The issue is just how you state it. Humans are complex. That’s just the way it is. I’m more than positive in your life you’ve done something against someone else for your own personal gain. It’s all around us.
I think the “issue” with what people have against your post is lack the of sympathy and empathy. If I’m using your logic even a homeless child that constantly steals just to fill his stomach or give a stuffed animal to a sibling deserves “what’s coming to him”? Well, atleast that’s how I interpreted it.
Yes, Sejin is not innocent. It seems like u think some of us believe he’s blameless but that’s not it. There is no such thing as a perfect victim. That’s in life and death always. Situations, humans, and thoughts can just b more complex than just black in white. And this situation rlly sux for a whole lotta people.
(Don’t think of this as an at. I’m not angry or triggered in anyway. I just keep getting updates on this thread and thought “might as well *shrug emoji*
I disagree.
I think the issue that everyone is having is that they have no empathy or sympathy for Ido. He started cold but he warmed up pretty quickly and was ready to defend and accept Sejin but Sejin didn't care and continued to use him, lie to him, and steal from him.
The author worked incredibly hard to make you feel sorry for Sejin, it's easy to feel sorry for him. He's a professional victim. Even when he's lying, stealing, and fucking everyone else over he acts like he's the victim and fully believes that he's the victim. The story is from his point of view so it's very easy to believe that.
No one is talking about how badly he hurt Ido. Sure, Ido wasn't the kindest at first because he thought he was letting a snake into his house. He slowly started to warm up and trust Sejin. He convinced himself against his better judgment that Sejin was actually trustworthy. He could have abandoned Sejin when the embezzlement scandal happened but he didn't because he trusted him and cared about him... And the entire time he was getting played.
The entire time where he thought he's marriage wasn't a sham and was growing to love his husband he was being scammed by a cold and calculating user.
Yes! I totally gets you. Big love for the way you try to clarify on this
This is so frustrating. They're both villains. Two bad guys got married to each other and treated each other like garbage. One of them regrets it and the other has a victim complex.
