It’s just crazy how the author acts like this is some touching full-circle moment when it’s really not. Hyesung doesn’t owe forgiveness, and forcing that narrative through his kid feels lazy and tone-deaf. Some relationships are meant to stay broken , and that’s okay.
Fr. Some relationships just not being mendable is realistic, it's where people draw boundaries from abuse and all. Hyesung talking with his mom and them being a "family" again would be completely unrealistic and feed more into the family first agenda no matter how damn toxic and abusive someone is, bc again all people harp about is how he's abandoned byul too while the whole point was to highlight the difference between him and his mom and growth. Genuinely hoping the author doesn't take that route, bc this reason and narrative is just..problematic
It’s heartbreaking that he left, thinking he was protecting her, and didn’t even know he had a child. His story shows how fear and uncertainty can make people make choices that unintentionally hurt the ones they love the most. It also makes you think about how absence shapes lives — his son grew up without him, and the mother suffered alone. The contrast with Ho and the main character, who face their challenges together, really highlights that sometimes staying and confronting pain is the braver, more loving choice.










I forgot how much I hated Dojin’s ass. Anyway, I must say I’m not surprised by how things turned out this author really has a talent for making shitty plots.
