I only disagree with the part about his brother holding nothing above Yigon. That is false. He is threatening to kill him like he killed their brother and the recent accident was either a warning or a murder attempt.
The only way to escape his brother is to give up his life and identity. And Yigon giving up everything and disappearing may not be enough as his brother who possess more money and ressources than him is paranoid and clearly sadistic. Running away may even put him in more danger as he would be easier to eliminate isolated.
Doesn't justify Yigon actions, but let's not pretend he put himself in this situation.
Tell me why he suddenly gets into accident if Yigon wasn't under his bro.
Wayyyy of victim blaming, you seems to grasp how abusive relationship works but then still blaming Yigon for failing to escape his brother.
i really can't with ppl projecting their own stigma about mental health and drugs on this story to hate TK, but now suddenly use mental health and Yigons state to excuse his potential actions and victim blame TK for it too? lmao
you're hating the ML for treating like Yigon is mentally sick (which he is anyway, just not psychosis and drug withdrawal like TK suspects) but now you defend Yigon's agreement to drug someone and physically harm them, potentially ruining their life, because he's mentally sick and "has no choice". that double standard.
1. TK is not nice but none of the things he did is as offensive as you make them appear to be. no one in their right mind would simply trust Yigon in his situation or simp for him.
- Yigon offering himself up to some random rich dude he barely met in a sex contract while not being gay or bi was proof from the beginning that he's not well. normal ppl don't do that. and TK knows that. sure it's annoying that he doesn't believe Yigon when we know it's the truth (albeit only if we can trust the narration) but come on, use common sense. they were openly just using each other for their own motivations, not one worse than the other.
- Yigon suffers from mental disorders, Yigon abuses alcohol (in front of TK) but just because he's not suffering from psychosis and delusions and drug withdrawal like the ML suspects, ML is the worst for thinking that? and offering professional help? after already helping Yigon through a panic attack? proving to him that Yigon is not mentally stable? TK didn't study psychology or medicine, give him some slack.
- They are basically strangers and don't know shit about each other, despite that TK still went home to tend to him during his panic attack, and eventually suggested a skilled professional to him (which honestly, Yigon needs one way or the other), and that even reached out to his friend to keep digging about information despite all results so far suggesting Yigon has delusions. he's NOT treating Yigon awful or abusive for not simping. the only reason Yigon fell for him was because he treated him well, even in a tsundere way lol give Yigon some credit
- TK is openly gay but despite that is about to get forced into a straight marriage with a woman he clearly seems to hate (been hinted multiple times and his strict boundaries seem to connect to that), he has his own problems and issues in his life, and the situation is clearly more complicated if we combine that he was under the impression that Yigon is straight, mentally unwell and using TK, then not respecting his boundaries, and not truly capable of being romantically involved with TK (TK suspected Yigon was obsessed with him, kinda right there btw lmoa, but surprised by Yigons actual romantic feelings, remember?), TK would be dumb to just fall for a straight guy with that many problems, he's clearly not the emotional type anyway
- honestly, just consider TK was right and Yigon was having delusions, and then see how TK treated him. he was there for him, followed the contract, and adviced him professional help, trying to be understanding.
2. Yigon is NOT without choice!
- he hasn't gone through with it yet, but wdym he has no choice, dude owns a hotel chain and his rich, the only reason he has to suck up to his brother is because he still hasn't let go of his hope to be accepted by his brother again and to be loved by him. the only chains Yigon is wearing are the ones he puts on himself by being emotionally depended on a person hating him, caught in an abusive relationship despite the resources to get the actual help to let go of that. his brother is not even holding anything above Yigon, Yigon is the one who can't let go.
- mental health can be an explanation but never an excuse for harming others. you don't get a free pass to harm another person because you suffered abuse. unless the brother is literally pointing a gun against his head while he drugs TK, i don't even want to read how he has no choice.
- stop victim blaming TK saying it's only because he left Yigon, it's not his job to save Yigon, and Yigons original plan (pretend to be gay) didn't work anyway, that's not on TK lmao? remember the brother found out it's fake anyway. Yigon has self-sabotaged his whole life, and is now about to do it more because he suspects that TK doesn't care anyway, which isn't even true, nor can you blame TK for that impression, Yigon didn't even tell him about the (clearly bugged) phone haha
- Yigon is in his 30's, stop babying him.
this story is not a masterpiece of writing (yet?), but it's also not as morally ambigious like the comments make it out to be. TK is flawed, Yigon is flawed, none are monsters or assholes as of yet. why are you all trying to paint them black and white and make this story something it's not. it's fine to be frustrated by the nearly non-existent character development, or dumb choices of the characters (or author) but all that weird hate like you're reading some children's book and characters need to be perfectly good or bad.
TK has feeligns for Yigon, Yigon has feelings for TK. it's clear they will end with each other anyway
