you’ve said all my thoughts
While I agree most members could have done better. I think a bit differently about Chan who wasn't even legally an adult until AFTER Hajin took over the body. Finding fault with Chan feels not right to me, as he was still a kid during all that time.
Additionally, it must have been difficult for Chan to know how to react to the orginal Sihyeon's erratic bevaviour, especially when ALL his adult seniors couldn't do anything either to help. He didn't have a single good role model (e.g. fellow members, manager, CEO or staff). The members didn't know about Sihyeon's mental illness either and the manager also said that Chan has been touchy feely even during original Sihyeon's time, which probably even worsened any chances of Chan being a comfort / help to Sihyeon who couldn't handle being touched and kept constantly kicking Chan out of their room as a result and based on what was said it was on a regular basis (￣∇￣").
Btw, I am only reading the webtoon tho.
Read the novel long time ago and just caught up with the webtoon. And I have tried to like the members, but I just can’t. It is not fully their fault but I just get annoyed by them. Yep, hate them
I ship Hajin with OG Sihyeon. They look so cute together when they have their imaginary moments in highschool. I wish they have met and Hajin the only one that cared. Love him.
