Im gonna be upfront and honest. I don’t think either of them deserve Jooin. He’s the only one this whole time thats been honest and has actually reflected on his decisions. He cut Yahwi off even though he had feelings because he realized the relation wasn’t good. While the two muscle heads just lie or become hostile. Its like a masculinity battle and Jooin is just caught in the middle.
While they are stupid, you have to realize that they are still growing kids. It’s normal to hold grudges and want revenge when that’s all you’ve known. These kids were either bullied, abused, or experienced some form of neglect. Maybe it’s all of the above for some. It’s normal in their case to act the way they do, because thats what they witnessed from a young age and continued to in the present time.
This story is about a struggling redemption arch. Its about someone who is trying to change their old habits and move on to become a better person. You can’t expect those wronged by john/erika to just forgive him and move on. He caused a lot of hurt and he knows that, stuff like that takes time and commitment. Soon/hopefully the story will turn, and even though everyone won’t forgive him, maybe some people will be willing to take a chance and change their minds.
This goes to show that the ending you get is not always the ending you want. Yes, it's frustrating but neither of the relationships were healthy to begin with. Even if you take the incest out of Haesoo and Jowoon’s relationship, it still wouldn’t have been a pretty one. And then there’s Haesoo’s relationship with Taku that was bound to end up in flames eventually no matter what.
The main reason for Joowon and Haesoo’s relationship being messy is because they decided to keep it undefined due to the incest taboo. Like the whole point of this story was showing how they didnt want to face the consequences of their relationship (consequences such as haesoo losing his mom), due to the TABOO, and thus they entered this unhealthy state of ambiguity— where the only way to actually express their love was through manipulation, jealousy, possessiveness, etc. the lack of communication and hurt all stems from the ambiguity too. So as far as we see, their relationship wouldve been fairly decent (not “perfect” obvs, cause theyre still humans and have flaws) if not for the taboo.
You guys do realize that the Rave in Tia’s present life is different than the Rave in her past life, right?
I understand why people might see my opinion as unpopular but I will defend it and Rave, even though I do see other’s points in why they would be against me.
1. The death of Tia’s baby was because of the poison that Jieun had secretly been giving her. You can see it in the chapter when she talks about how the symptoms were similar to those she felt when she was pregnant and had that miscarriage. But, I do not think Rave in her past life is innocent, he did force himself onto her and that in itself is cruel. (Plus the other stuff he did lets not forget that.)
2. I replied to another person with this point, but I think that even though Rave was a horrible person in Tia’s last life, he is a much different person now. The character development can be seen and Tia even realizes this herself when she argues with Jieun defending her opinion that “people change” and even says herself that she too has changed.
3. I personally don’t think Rave should be condemned by the readers for his past life. Yes, he did those monstrous things and Tia is often held back by this, but it is important to note that those lives are two completely different lives. The Rave we see now is not the same Rave we know now because the environment he grew to age in and his relationship with Tia is much different. You can even see this in the way he rejects Jieun, EVEN THOUGH he was supposed to fall in love with her immediately after meeting her. And secondly, instead of going with the kings ruling for the empress and queen he combats it, which is clearly a sign of change seeing that both Tia and Jieun did not expect it.
4. This is not a tale of revenge. To me this is a story about change and overcoming obstacles that to a person facing them may seem impossible to overcome. While Tia makes a new life for herself and does what she believes is the right thing, she is also battling herself and you have to realize that she deep down knows that there is change to be made when you yourself have changed as well.
Sorry for the rant but this story has my brain fired up.
... Not to be mean, but there is a lot of wrong statements and informations in your arguments. Ji-eun, for instance, had nothing to do with the poisoning of the first timeline, be it of Ruve or Tia. And indeed it is Ruve, not Rave. He did not fall in love with Ji-eun in the second timeline because there was nothing to love. She did not suit his taste at all anymore (she is the new Tia of the second timeline is more than one way) and she could not fake her affection for him. Not only Ruve but also his father realized very quickly that she hate him and recent him for some reason. She could not hid it well enough. All of those mistakes impact the credibility of the rest of the demonstration.
OKAY but the honesty from Luan when Yul asked if he was using him just made me cry. I hate when people lie about stuff like that and his honesty is what makes me love this even more
First season was good but the second season threw me through a loop seeing the mc go through such a big personality change. It took me a second to realize season two had a major time skip (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
Guys this isn’t up for debate it is literally spelled out and made obvious that Jin is a switch/power bottom
