He might've been over protective in the earlier chaps but I srsly thought that is because of his trauma when he failed to protect the MC when they were little. Now, MC gave him a parameter—a boundary and not even a single time he tried to step over it amd be the manipulative and obsessive monster y'all claims him to be. Can't say the same to the ML tho
I'm sorry you're too disgusting to think it was okay to give the MC a panic attack by selfishly holding onto him physically while he freaked out. Sorry your brain is damaged enough to think respecting boundaries means physically assaulting someone because you're a pathetic jealous little boy You're too retarded to understand that the ML being shitty doesn't magically make the dude you're gooning for a green flag You couldn't be any more moronic lmfaoooo
Why are you speaking this meanly to a stranger over yaoi are you insane??? Check yourself this is not normal
Sorry you're too stupid to understand that OPs stupidity and excising red flag shit actually translates into excising shitty people irl
Hey coward how who turned her replied off @TypeS. Here's as sweet message for you
You're a hateful bitch but if that's what fulfills the Regina George twink fantasy that you're trying to portray then we give yo that. Girl you sound more brain-damaged than an actual person who has it. Might have been because of too much gooning to the white haired guy that even the last bit of brain juices came out of that stinky stick. I get that you can't be open minded with regards to Minwoo's character because you have no mind to open to begin with. Exercising red flag shit my ass. What's red here is your eyes coz you a crybaby and you definitely hitting coke.
i genuinely love you for this
HAHAHAH I LOVE YOU FOR THIS don’t let that weirdo bring your mood down you did nothing wrong
To put it into perspective for you: Saying he’s only overprotective is really watering down the things he did. His own trauma doesn’t excuse his own actions. A good example of protectiveness is the mc’s sister. The sister protected him but didn’t shelter him and let him make his own decisions. Minwoo DID step over MC’s boundaries before. It wasn’t until the fight he got scared he’d never see MC again, that he decided to listen for once in their life. He’s only NOW starting to be a normal friend.
He is also obsessive (he literally admitted it more than once), and manipulative, as he tried to control who mc hangs out with, who mc met, and who mc can talk to. He admitted that his protectiveness also benefitted him by keeping Mc to himself. In chapter one, mc mentions that minwoo doesn’t like him joining a simple group chat. He told mc to stop his relationship with ml and monitored him by staying over at his house to prevent him from leaving. He made mc feel uncomfortable, suffocated, and scared of his reaction. Which is not normal for friends to be scared of their own friend’s reaction to their relationship. MC bottled up all these frustrating emotions and blew up at minwoo rightfully. Minwoo also kissed MC in his sleep. Minwoo also beat ML unconscious due to his own jealousy at seeing them mutually making out.

What you're doing is actually concerning and I hope you don’t have this mindset for real life. Because you don’t realize the red flags. You’re excusing and minimizing his actions to just being “overprotective” or “traumatized.” You’re not really thinking about how MC feels at all. Him starting to be a NORMAL friend NOW shouldn’t be praised. It’s the bare minimum. “Tries to protect him despite their feud,” should be the standard for a normal human being. If you fight with your friend and they're about to get sexually assaulted, you’d ignore them? This isn’t a competition between ML and minwoo. BOTH are bad in their own ways. The fact that you can’t recognize minwoo’s faults is the reason why people point it out for you to understand. ML’s flaws are obvious.
Ikr! Idk why they get so triggered and act like it’s a crime to say Minwoo deserves happiness, like??? Okay then, I’ll scream it louder — LONG LIVE MINWOOI LOVE YOU, YOU DESERVE HAPPINESS WOOOOO
I understand your points, thank you. Still I would wish him a happy ending coz he's apologetic and making up for it ( I read the raws) He might have his shortcomings and redflags but he's not as evil as what other peeps think
To put it into perspective for you too: After reading it carefully, I really appreciate your opinion. But to be honest, you're too focused on Minwoo’s mistakes, which are actually not even comparable to what Seojun and Joohyun did. I agree that Joohyun’s sister isn't that strict, although she is actually really worried about Joohyun. In the last few chapters (raw version) Joohyun ends up pregnant because he isn't good at protecting himself.
Who do you think will be fucking disappointed later? Hm? His sister? His parents? Idk... After trusting everything to Minwoo, Joohyun still ends up pregnant with Seojun’s child, who is basically a stranger <<<-----
Maybe Minwoo’s behavior did make Joohyun uncomfortable because he loved him so much, but at least Minwoo never crossed the line by forcing or raping him. He respected Joohyun’s boundaries from the start because he knew Joohyun wouldn't have his first time unless it was with someone he loved. Joohyun only warned him once and Minwoo immediately realized it and backed off. Isn’t that how it should be, in your opinion, right?
Am I cruel for wishing Minwoo didn't save Joohyun when he almost got gang raped by Seojun’s friends? I hope Minwoo doesn't come back to save Joohyun at that time, so he can learn his lesson. But it seems like the author wants to use a semi-classic plot where someone other than Seojun still cares about Joohyun. Making it clearly a classic love triangle.
Looking at the bigger picture, Minwoo’s mistake is only minor, and even you said it yourself that it's the bare minimum, but the way you portray Minwoo makes it seem like he committed a huge sin that everyone should know about. I've read your perspective three times and it feels somewhat forced, so I wrote this long explanation because I want to add this point of view to the discussion with you. I hope you'll never experience what Minwoo went through irl, sacrificing himself for years for a friend, only to have it all fall apart because of that friend’s stupidity in love.
To those who jumped on me for wishing Minwoo a happy ending, I will slap this chap to y'alls cooch. How can y'all call him a manipulative monster when he knows his boundaries and even tries to protect him despite their feud. If someone's manipulative and jerk here, that would be the ML
