What do you mean DoHwa stayed by her side? He jeeted after being rejected and lost contact with her as well! And just recently they started speaking again, because of work
Alright, ghosting is a complex issue. Dohwa ghosted her because he chose himself and left for good after being rejected. It wasn’t about staying; rather, he respected her feelings for Eunhyeok back then and chose to distance himself.
On the other hand, Eunhyeok’s ghosting involved a betrayal of Su-ae’s trust and affection, leaving her to deal with confusion and heartbreak.
Reality speaking, ten years without contact—like literally being dumped out of nowhere—really sucks. That’s why I easily understand Su-ae’s feelings about having a hard time accepting or interacting with Eunhyeok. I can’t blame her for feeling that way; she’s absolutely right that he should never underestimate what a 10-year gap means. Everything could change, including her feelings and the way she treats him.
She’s actually strong for meeting him again and learning to let him go. If she ever ends up with Dohwa, I think he deserves it for staying by her side, and Su-ae deserves it for moving forward with her life.
If she ended up with Eunhyeok, it feels like Su-ae is just seeking validation and answers for why he left her for 10 years, then proceeding to be together again as if nothing happened. ╮(￣▽￣)╭
