i won't speak for all but i for one, am only tolerating nakwon bc he has genuinely fallen in love and is determined to make mokhwa happy the best he can. idk if you've noticed but he's also very regretful of what he's done to mokhwa, he is fully aware and is actively striving to redeem himself by- as i said earlier- making mokhwa happy. be assured that i am not at all defending him, your hate towards him is completely justified. he is still the same narcissistic prick to others but his attitude and motives towards mokhwa isn't malicious anymore, that makes a huge difference. also, mokhwa is no fool. that's why they took a long time to get together, not bc he's emotionally oblivious (which is albeit, partially true), it's kinda disrespectful to him to say that he's happily going along nakwon's whims purely bc nakwon's manipulating him. no. he's only going along bc he chooses to WHEN he DEEMS is okay, mokhwa is an analytical type just as nakwon. lastly, mokhwa's face in chp 101 clearly shows that the guy is satisfied w what he's got. mokhwa happy = me happy.
oh and, yh i do agree that mokhwa does deserves better, i can't forgive the rape either
I definitely agree
also think it's important to pinpoint how mokhwa sees through nakwon and chooses to stay bc that puts him as someone who has agency and that's important
YES.
Mohkwa deserves so much better! someone who is sincere and genuinely kind, not a narcissistic manipulative prick like this dude whose every word and move has always been solely for his own gain to get what he wants. People like him don't change, only their tactics and approach does!
