I wonder how realistic the portrayal is of adoption in South Korea, as elsewhere separating siblings is seen as a last resort and usually something that happens when a child is much older if necessary. For two twin babies to be separated and for them to be chosen purely on looks, with one couple deciding to take the brother due to the leg injury would raise all sorts of ethical and legal questions elsewhere in the world.
Ah you make a good point. Thinking about it and this genre of manhwa, the horror of the situation is often blown out of proportion. Like, bad characters become pretty much evil, good characters become saints, so i can see why they would exaggerate this, to invoke more of a response from the reader. Although i don't doubt there are probably people irl who would do this unfortunately.
It's one thing to seperate siblings, but TWINS at that? Disgusting. I'm a twin myself, and i honestly couldn't imagine life without my brother at my side. Twins share a special bond and to seperate them like that is just >:'(. Moreso the fact she would rather have a child that isn't handicapped annoys me. Obviously it's understandable that you don't want your child to suffer but like. If she had a birth child who was handicapped would she have given it away?
