Not a Taku stan, but I do actually like all three characters. I think they're all flawed in very interesting ways. I like Taku's growth in this story. He started off as this apathetic, emotionless guy who treated reality like a photograph he could see but wasn't really a part of. Now, he's fallen in love. He's gone through hope, happiness, jealousy, anger, helplessness, and heartbreak. It's like he's finally alive and living life.

It's your opinion. Not a fact. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ The fact is different types of people like Taku for different reasons. Grouping everyone who likes his character as twelve year olds who like tik tok and rant on Twitter is ridiculous. Liking Joowon, someone who has his own flaws and toxic traits, does not make you better than those who like Taku.

You don't have to say it explicitly. People can read between the lines and it's clear to me that you wanted to create an image of yourself as older and wiser and therefore "better" than these 12 year old tik tok kids.
Words matter. You don't like Taku? That's cool. You can state your opinion without demeaning and making false observations about a whole group of people.

I'm not saying that Joowon has not grown and changed for the better. But he was not exactly Prince Charming throughout most of this story. He and Haesoo were in an incredibly dependent and toxic relationship that brought out some of the worst in each other. The way they tried to bury their problems by playing forbidden lovers. The way they purposely did things to hurt or test the other. The way they kept stringing the other along even when they were hurting themselves. This was all toxic and not something that's easy to forget or forgive. It's not surprising at all that many readers still can't bring themselves to like Joowon.
Can someone give me some reasons why Ya'll still stan Taku? I have never liked him nor do I dislike him, just wanna know him from different pov because as far as I have known him, he is just being manipulative, selfish, petty, materialistic and obsessed.
