the story was literally PRIVATE, PERSONAL and as a simple hobby btw??? ML WASN'T "USED", if he was, MC should actually gain smth out of it, BUT HE LITERALLY DIDN'T
Real
Thank you for raising this. I was literally hurt (and crying) when Juheon still despises Dohu after all these years when he literally did not listen to Dohu AT ALL. That boy actually said he liked him, and Juheon's first instinct was despise him just because it was the first time. I knew that Dohu did not deserve all these. Motherly instincts always kicks in for Dohu because that's a child in the spectrum!
"I did not know my abnormal thinking would hinder me in any way" BABYYYY . If only Juheon used that time he ran to Dohu's arms when shit happened with his family to communicate; he would've known what has been going on inside Dohu's head. But all he did was run away. So selfish of him. And his scorned face really hurts. I'm so hurt for Dohu :((( That child was learning about himself all while studying Juheon. And Juheon has NO IDEA he helped Dohu recognize his feelings.
The BL novel that Dohu was writing was for commercial release, it wasn't a fanfiction, he had an editor in the first chapter telling him to come up with new characters.
Also the title of the webtoon is literally called "Don't Mix Business With Pleasure." It's referencing the concept of Dohu seducing Juheon just to then write down the sex they had together to sell. When Juheon looked at Dohu's computer near the end of season 1, that was meant to be him going "Hold on... This is... Me?"
Juheon believes that Dohu used him just to make money off of him, that's why Juheon is upset. He's still questioning "Did I mean ANYTHING to you? You have no understanding of human emotions. But I hate that I still like you even though you only went out with me to sell books." Like Dohu was Juheon's first love too so it's even more intense of a betrayal for Juheon, that's why Juheon is so angry and humiliated that the first guy he's ever learnt to trust... Didn't even date him because he liked him.
But in season 1 Dohu actually did care for Juheon and came to like him, but Juheon is still distrustful of Dohu. Season 2 will no doubt be about Dohu and Juheon clearing up misunderstandings and learning to trust again.
THIS. I LITERALLY WAS CRYING WRITING THE WHOLE THING BRO CUS WDYM THAT'S HOW YOU TREATED HIM AFTER HOW HE TREATED YOU???
still, knowing and understanding that someone you love is literally UNABLE to feel and understand human emotions and that had made them feel alienated for years and Juheon's first instinct was "YOU MONSTER WHO DOESN'T UNDERSTAND EMOTIONS USED ME" is fucking wild to me. esp coming from juheon who was born in a privileged position. Who likely had more resources compared to dohu.
and after the MONTHS dohu spent understanding Juheon and trying to be a better person for him Juheon couldn't spend 1 more day to let dohu speak and defend himself or even explain himself??? come on now bro.
what dohu did: used juheon as a reference to start writing a story/script because he's an aspiring script writer, basically just thinking of juheon as a muse. ALL WHILST HELPING JUHEON BE MORE HONEST AND OVERCOME HIS TRAUMA OF HAVING NORMAL HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEOPLE. He literally convinced juheon on being more open and honest abt his comforts and discomforts.
what juheon did: bring stress and unnecessary pain into dohu's university life, constantly mentioning and villainising dohu's lack of emotions (WHICH DOHU LITERALLY ARE BORN WITH AND LITERALLY HAVE TRAUMA ABOUT) making dohu FEELS EVEN SHITTIER ABY HIMSELF.
WHEN I TELL YOU FUCK YOU JUHEON, I MEANT IT. BECAUSE I GENUINELY THINK DOHU IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF AUTISM AND KOREA(and asian countries in general) IS SO BAD IN MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT AND CARE, HE'S UNDIAGNOSED.
Imagine thinking you're the only victim of a story when you constantly shit on other people's lives and things they cannot control.
Man fuck off. idc idc. YOU'RE AN ADULT, AND YOU THINK IN ALL PERPECTIVE YOU'RE THE PERPETUAL VICTIM??? GROW THE FUCK UP. never in a million years decent human would act like you did.
imagine being dohu, not being able to understand emotions and being numb to it, having your entire life UNDERSTANDING that you're never going to be understood and mesh with other people because of the way you're born, being alienated for it, and the ONLY PERSON, you decided to confide about it to USED IT AGAINST YOU??? i would kms
