That's probably why he and Haesoo are so drawn to each other. Two desperately lonely souls looking for someone who really cares about them.
I don’t think that’s the entire case I would agree with maybe the father bc he know she abt their relationship but doesn’t give a damn I’m not sure if that’s neglect of acceptance whatever’s it isn’t isn’t sitting well with me but honestly I don’t hate jowoon I think honestly he just needs some love and 5e love he’s looking for he will not be getting from haesoo they both need something stable and two unstable people aren’t really they best together which is why I Stan taku x haesoo (plus they aren’t kind a step bros and the step bro guilt will never go away And only make them more anxious)
Also I think haesoo cares about him a lot which it is why it wasn’t his decision to break up in the first place bc they’re relationship is toxic and is going anywhere healthy anytime soon Andy also for the happiness of the parents Andy for an overall peace of mind for everbody
No one gives a shit about Joowon. not his father, not his manager, not his boss, and not Haesoo. And that's so sad, I feel so bad for Joowon.
