And in real life there usually aren't people who would go out of their way to support them like in the comments section here.
Is it only relevant that Jiwon is super popular and successful and everyone loves him and desire him?
He is well respected and appreciated. He has many friends many hobbies...
While DG is a total loser.
That has to mean something. Jiwon being perfect at everything and DG lacking in everything...
Like I said, Alex is an asshole. He knows he's lacking and can't do relationships~~ AND/BUT he was upfront about it from the start. And always checked DG's feeling for him-- to make extra sure. There are people like that too in real life.. but more of a jerk since they're not as meticulous as Alex in looking out if the partner is indeed falling for them.
Alex is a jerk and HONEST about his preferences. Alex NEVER lied to DG even though he came off an asshole. DG wanted to play, but he was selfish and deluded to think he can change Alex. Sadly, people like DG exist in real life.
