I mentioned in the comment above, I see your point, actions are heavily important, but a verbal apology is a MUST because it shows the person genuinely regrets what they did enough to verbally say it out loud. From experience, saying WHAT I did wrong and that I feel remorse for doing it is harder than just changing my ways. You need both to make an apology genuine.

I just want this man to say ‘sorry’ ONCE. Idec if it’s two panels and Dan just forgives him. JUST A VERBAL APOLOGY TO RECOGNIZE WHAT YOU DID, POOKIE!! Till than, I refuse to accept Jaykyung even if he gives Dan the world.
