Taekgyum is worse than haeyoung. He is the one who started this chains of r*pe anx thinks rxpe is sex. They both had fun in his disgusting mind. At least, Haeyoung us psycopath so he is incapable of feeling empathy but what about other two? They can understand its wrong and they constantly rxpe at every chance they got. Haeyoung is sadist psycho. I also think he is the least motivated by sex, more motivated by anger but at least, he is consistent while the other two feel sorry for one second, blame and rxpe mc at another. I am gonna be honest. I would refer someone like Haeyoung over them because medication can kinda fix him and he is just born like that but others? Nah. They are playing "nice guys" who decided to rxpe their friend for some reason.

Heayoung being psychopathic doesn't excuse his behavior it makes him worse ..they all are worse ofc but teakyum is now feeling bad bcuz he knows that everything has started bcuz of him tho it's not enough to forgive him but still he's better than heayoung...we can't justify heayoung just bcuz he was born like this and we can't forgive teakyum either just bcuz he's feeling sorry now but between them teakyum is better as u said at least he knows what's good and right and can feel guilt unlike heayoung. And don't even talk about that third guy I hate him with every fiber of my being I have always hated that troup that acts like he's the kindess and genuinely care but then is tempted and do THE SAME THING I HATE IT. STILL teakyum better among them. He was genuinely started to have feelings for him

I never said its excusable. But to be honest, i dont even hate him because psycho is psycho. Its not his fault He cant feel those things.
And Taekgyums feeling sorry is very shallow. He doesnt feel bad for rxpe. He feels bad for beating and torture. He is the one who started everything. The first rxpist and even He "supposedly" so sad that, that never stopped him rxping mc again. And he gets more frustrated "mc keep choosing haeyoung" but then rxpes him again because "how dare mc reject him". He is more "sexually motivated" than haeyoung too. Remember what he said to mc? "Just let me fck you whenever we want, then i will treat you better" its so disgusting. This is the dynamic between mc and him. He is someone who can understand good and bad but still choose bad and blame victim. Compared to Haeyoung who is literally incapable of feeling those things. Also, Haeyoung is the least sexually motivated. Unlike others, he can spend time with mc without rxping him. He can play the role of good friend but the other two is like hungry horny animals.
- And lets talk about consequences. The other two was got away and left at the end. Haeyoung torture himself as punishment for hurting mc. So at least, he was hurted.
- Now, besides the fact that mc obviously deserve better than all of them, why haeyoung is better choice?
1) Mc loves him. Imagine if mc chose one of the other, after the rxpe. That would be weird, as if rxpe made him fall in love with them.
2) He is the only one who faced some şort of karma and consequences by torturing himself.
3) Haeyoung can spend a life without sex. Mc is obviously traumatized by rxpe so sex itself might be trigger. Unlike other two, Haeyoung can just be there without sex. There is literally preiod of Haeyoung stopped touching mc, unlike other two animal.
4) Mcs relationship with other two is pretty much cycle. Even if they felt bad, they immediately switch to other side. Their inconsistency is definitely horrible for mc. And about haeyoung, he is incapable of feeling bad but he can punish himself in his own way. I think Haeyoung can and does stop the abuser role because violence was just a way to keep uke. But later in novel, Haeyoung try to help mc with his trauma. He doesnt force or push him into anything. He is literally just there. Does that erase what he did? No. But i cant ever imagine the other two doing better job at helping mc for his trauma.
- Dont get me wrong, Haewon deserves better but Haeyoung is better choice than other two. Main reason i will never accept the other two is simple. I know their so called guilt and love is fake. Yesz it is more fake than whatever obsession haeyoung has.like, man. Whenever i read Haeyoung and Haewoon, i could read the drama, intensity, their interaction and psychology because it focused on how they were feeling more than sex. When they interactz i could see them actually talking or listening in some way But whenever mc was with others, they keep forcing mc to be their boyfriend, then rxpe him. Look at how many scenes they have without rxpe. Mcs interaction with them without rxpe is almost nonexistence. They only repeat "choose me, i am better, let me fck you, choose me", even mc never once really cared for them or said No. This is why mc stopped talking because they were never listening. Thats also why i would lead into haeyoung more. At least, mc chose haeyoung despite knowing his psycho side. He was also obssessed with him in a way too. Like, at least there is choice and something mutual here. Something more than psychical stuffs.

Yeah, Haeyoungs motivation is more related to anger and dominance. But the other two cant put their hands to themselves even for one goddamn second. Like, boy doesnt love you and he wont be your friend. Cry about it. Like, why would mc love or prefer them? He never cared for them while he was ready to forgive haeyoung, if haeyoung stopped earlier. Ironically, i think if haeyoung didnt beat him, and just "sex"with him out of nowhere, mc wouldnt even complain because thats literally what mc wanted. Instead of beating mc, if he beat the other two guys, this series would be twisted but more romantic story. And there is also bathroom scene in ch 68?ish idk, taekgyum stops mc and say "hey. Just choose me. Leave haeyoung. Just let me fck you whenever i want. Then i promise i will treat you better" ewww. And mc says NO again and he rxpes him again : )))). And people want this guy to be "mcs hero", when he is the reason everything went wrong and got worse. Mc literally cried and said "i feel dirty." with full of self-disgust in one of the scenes and the other two still rxped him because they are "horny"...because mc "asked" for it "out of fear". Ewwww. Sorry, i keep repeating myself but as reader, i couldnt even enjoy from their toxic dynamic. At least, Haeyoungs scenes were scary and interesting. It gave the psychology horror theme. Haewoon and Haeyoungs intense relationship was something worth to explore. What other gives? "Second male syndrome"? Or "Rxpe fantasy"? Ewww. Yeah, anyway. At least, i hope rxpe scenes gets skipped and story ends quickly so we get see happy haewoon healing at the end. And i hope all of them suffer, especially the other two because haeyoung was the only one who suffered. They all should suffer a lot.

Not gonna defend anyone but as u said he's messed up so he's even more dangerous and sure teakyum started it but heayoung has the most power in this group if he wanted he would have stopped those two from gRapping him but instead he encouraged him so he's been going through this bcuz of him ITS LIKE HES gRaping him and then he beat him locked him up made him suffer and gRaped him just what is it that he hasn't done at least teakyum DID say he will treat him good (ik he's bad too) while heayoung he doesn't even feel any sympathy for him. Thoughts my thoughts and I haven't read novel yet so yuh but ofc since heayoung is the LI they gonna give him redemption arc duh it's obv the author gonna make him likeable but maybe the author should have gave that treatment to teakyum but still I would have rather he had ended up someone else.

Haeyoung didnt force them though. You cant put their crimes responsibility on one person and he might be leader but it was "team play" on their part. Taekgyum is the one who invited others to rxpe mc. "Hey guys, look this was so good, wanna try?".
1) HE started everything
2) He rxped more than others
3) HE knew mc loved haeyoung and he threatened and force to choosd him
4- He treaed him like sex toy and the only reason he wants to be together with mc is SEX. I repeat, neither of taekgyum or hyunwoo was having emotionsl connection with mc. Their entire focus was sex, sex, sex.
5) like i said, i dont believe "they actually feel bad". If they feel sorry, they should have reported themselves.So basically, none of them are truly sorry in my view.
6) Haeyoung is getting medicine so he can be stable. So he wont be necessarely dangerous. And how do you know taekgyum and hyunwoo wont be violent later? Remember. Their interaction with mc started with "rxpe". Do you really think they wont go back to those behavours? I think you are having second ml syndrome for taekgyum, ignoring what mc wants.
Haeyoung is messed up but mc has very good memories with him beyond rxpe period. They have mutual love towards each other, even if its messed up, they were both afraid to lose each other. Haeyoung is and was always psycho and mc knew it and accepted it. HE chose to forgive haeyoung. HE chose to be together with him. Its also canon that haeyoung actually is very helpfull for mcs healing at the end.
Logically think.
Why would mc choose taekgyum or hyunwoo?
He only endured them before because they were haeyoungs friend. He didnt even see them as friends. Not only this, they also rxped him. Now, tell me. Why would mc love them? If he cant love them when they were his "friends", how would he love them after the rxpe? Why would he love them when they never protected him from haeyoungs abuse? Mc literally said they are worse in his mind. Why would he choose people who wants him for sex toy? Why would they even be better choice when they all rxped him together? Why they keep rxping him, if they feel sorry? Their priority will never be mc.
Haeyoung is psycho but i think he loved mc in his own way. They have a relationship beyond sex, and MC CHOSE HIM. If thats what haewoon wants , i dont mind. I get him. Haeyoung was always someone important to him and despite what he did, he chose to stay with him. I would still support mc, if he chose noone because he deserves better but besides "that what happenned", i really dont mind mcs relationship with haeyoung, especially at the end of story when haeyoung punished himself and they both got therapy.

Sure but as u said how are we GONNA know that if heayoung won't start beating him again ? He's a psycho how can he be trusted ... So mc always has to relay on therapy for him to be good to him and I said ofc the author gave him a redemption arc and tried to make him likeable that's why he punished himself and stuff if the author has given that same treatment to teakyum if the author had made teakyum punish himself and promised to not hurt him again then he will be more likable than heayoung but ofc heayoung is the main so only he will get the redemption arc and beside u said they didn't tried to stop them I remember teakyum asking heayoung to not beat him BRU U R SAYING HEAYOUNG AND HEAWOON RELATIONSHIP IS NOT ABOUT SEX ... HE gRapes him more than anyone HE SHOVED A WHOLE TROPHY UP HIS ASS it would have better if he was fking with his dick since mc would rather take that than some objects But NO HE WILL NEVER DO smth that mc don't hate he tried to push A WHOLE UMBRELLA UP HIS ASS but mc ran away and wished he was dead so how can u say that mc would rather be with him if it wasn't for his memory going away he WOULD HAVE NEVER CHOOSE EITHER ONE OF THEM ..mc don't wanna be with either one of them as how they r now but I'm saying from my own perspective that I would rather he would end with teakyum is he must has one of those three but mc he would want none of them now so don't say mc wants to be with heayoung if he did he would have stayed like good boy and not the running away and wishing to be dead and stuff. If only author had gave teakyum redemption arc like the other gRapist in the manhwas then it would be better than heayoung but well that's how I see it . U have ur own opinion and I have my own . Then again we have to wait for the end to see everything

Honestly I wanted hyunwoo to step in between to be honest cuz I don't taegyom or haeyoung but he never did that's the issue even in between mc begged before hyun woo but he just said" why only now you say my name " somewhere highlighting hyun woo wouldn't step up cuz he is enjoying acting like innocent while enjoy the rape by side lines. I hope for him for step but he never did. Honestly taegyom acts like he care why he doesn't care about about mc consent it is a small thing for sex why does not care about his health when he was exhausted from work he raped in the starting chapters from 1-6 where he comes and goes and gets pissed if he wants to be raped by hyun woo it's as" if I only have the right to rape " if I want somebody to get meds it's hyun woo I am biased for him

So you want redemption arc for taekgyum because for you, thats a better choice.
- i said "Haeyoung and haewoons relationship was beyond sex". There are thousand of moments Haeyoung left haewoon alone, unlike other two. Yes, his motivation isnt sex. It was anger for beyraying him. I literally explained this in my comment many times.
"You like him because author is making him likable"?
No. I never liked characters like taekgyum who is estp bully type, always horny and never takes no for answer. I dont like hyunwoo because he only wants to live in his own fantasy.
- I like haeyoung for his interesting character. "Beautiful psychos" are interesting. If he didnt rxpe mc, i would still root for him.
- And i like the dynamic between haeyoung and mc, "besides the rxpe" part. Their interaction, talking is giving psychology horror theme. The other two only there to rxpe mc. They dont have anything interesting beyond they are rxpist jerks who cries because mc doesnt want them. You will see thousand of rxpists jrk type of seme who never truly understand the weight of their actions and they get "pity arc". At least, psycho taking teraphy is unique. It also makes sense lol.
- AGAIN YOU CANT FORCE MC TO LIKE SOMEONE ELSE.
Forget about who is better rxpist topic.
MC DOESNT LOVE TAEKGYUM. HE NEVER DID AND HE DOESNT WANT HIM. You cant force mc to like him, just because you think he is "better choice", (which i disagree with you btw.)
There is a scene where taekgyum says what you said and mc literally says no. Doesnt mcs opinion matter to you? I think you are into characters like taekgyum, so you are having second ml syndrome. For me, love isnt some kind of competition. Its about choices. It doesnt matter how much hyunwoo, taekgyum or any person to do something, because mc doesnt want them. I think logically, even if he never forgive or choose haeyoung, he wouldnt end up with hyunwoo or taekgyum. Why would he? He never loved them and after what they did, he has no reason to either.
I already wrote in other comments why i think haeyoung is better choice at the end. You can read them, if you want. Pls read my words carefully.

This. Like, they pretend to feel sorry but they never actually stopped haeyoung because they didnt really care lol. Mc was shaking, crying about how he felt disgust with his own body to them. I was hoping for a little humanity for that one moment but they rxped him again : )))).
Thanks for the support btw. Nice to see someone who can see my point .
I hope they change the ending in manhwa cuz no way in hell I want him to end up with that frking psycho. If he must end up with one of them then at least let it be teakyum . He actually looks a lil bit sane next to heayoung.
