    i actually forced myself halfway through the story to sympathize with joowon because i knew they were going to end up together. and honestly? i’m not mad. although i don’t get why the whole step brother relationship had to be a thing? the author could’ve just made them be childhood friends or something

    it's bc of the stigma. that was their whole issue lol. if they were just childhood friends, they wouldn't have had as many obstacles as they did.

    I don’t have a problem with ending up together though them ending up together was very predictable and like the ending will just be very underwhelming to me. I definitely agree they couldve just been childhood friends or something without the step brother thing tho

    honestly the entirety of the story would’ve stayed the same if they were fwb nothing in the story would change besides the parents not being together.

    honestly me neither. i’m not mad at all that i’m okay with them being together. i actually think they’d be better together (hopefully i don’t get dragged for saying that but yeah)

    huh? but if they werent step siblings it wouldnt make much sense why they couldnt admit their feelings for each other for a whole decade. like what's holding them back otherwise?

    despite the step brother thing, many readers can still sympathize with them cause a) they met as highschoolers,, and b) their parents were together for merely 2 years. Like I have siblings, and haesoo/joowon are in no way comparable to any sibling r/s lol. They weren't raised together, they never saw each other as brothers, they arent blood related, and nothing on paper ties them together legally either. So there's no ACTUAL reason they shouldnt be tgt. It's just the fact that their parents are unsupportive and the societal stigma of being former stepsiblings (which imo is pointless considering all the context i stated above about their r/s) might ruin Joowon's career.
