This ain’t for everybody. Jihyun is the most interesting character in the series. Clearly his loveless and harsh upbringing has shaped him into a harsh and contemptuous person. He thinks he’s in love with Chiwoo, but he’s just projecting his want for human warmth, sympathy and simple acceptance onto the first person to cross the walls he’s put up. He’s older yes, he’s physically more capable than others, but his mind is under developed. He is mentally scarred, and while the events of this series show him mentally breaking down throughout, the two pillars that should stand by him - his father and brother, that should show sympathy and understanding, all the while teaching him how to face the turmoil inside and curve his rage, are nowhere to be found and when they are all they are interested in is keeping him under control and out of sight. It’s just...
I’m sure most would disagree, but this is just... well, my view on things.
