I'm interested in what you have to say, so I'll paste a comment I left for someone else.

It's easy to say this here, but do you have the same thoughts for genocides happening across the world between a privileged race and a not-so-privileged race? We always ask ourselves, how could people just watched as the holocaust went on? We call all these privileged people bad for living a good life and not trying to do anything while the rest suffered. But these privileged people feared for their lives if they didn't follow orders. They didn't want to be outed as sympathisers and be killed.

So, would you say it was right for them to keep quiet? Would you say those underprivileged people who were tortured and killed should not pressure the privileged people and "have no right putting that much pressure on someone else to solve their own problems", as you said?

I think the dilemma the author brings up is thought-invoking because of that. On an individual scale, self-preservation seems like it's not morally wrong. But when we up the scale to a country level, where groups of people suffer while other privileged people watch and do nothing, suddenly, things seem different. Hope you don't find this as an attack, it's just food for thought.

Don't worry, I love to discuss different opinions and point of views!

I actually think it's the opposite.
On individual scale, self-preservation is a matter of our own gain only, meaning that asking for a favor knowing full well you're guilt tripping someone into helping you would still be fundamentally wrong. Because while it's not right for anyone to be in an unfair situation, just as you'd mess up someone to get their help, that person might just let you in the mess to not mess up their own life. This is at its core just human nature, it's just not right to ask for someone's freedom in exhange of someone else's.

When we up the scale though, it shines through as a bigger problem, because each and every person not wanting to take that first step creates a silent crowd. The strenght of a crowd is that you won't be singled out, you can make a statement and it won't be a personal sacrifice but a community effort.

The problem is that a crowd must still start somewhere, and that same sense of self preservation tells us that we shouldn't/ can't be the one to start it. ''I can't step forward alone, what if no one responds?'' The higher the risk of consequences, the more people will wonder if they are brave enough to paint themselves as a target.

I don't think you can ever condemn anyone for not having the courage to do so, but it's also very important to understand the difference between just ignoring a problem and being scared to intervene.

I mean in the case of this story, it's clear the consequences of helping would have arguably been worse than the fate of the person who needed help, and the guy really didn't owe his entire life to anyone to be guilt-tripped like that. The total lack of emotion in the guy who asked him, and ignored the costs of his request when put face to face to it, is the actual problematic one to me, at least from an emotive stand point. That's someone who's only thinking of himself.

I'm really glad that we can have a discussion like this. Right now I'm on the fence, but some people have taken my questions as my opinion and reacted like that to it.

You said it very well and I think your answer is very well thought-out, especially the part about how the crowd must start somewhere. I actually had a current controversy in mind. In Korea, currently, there is a big scandal and it brought up how some higher-ups in the media industry have been drugging and r*ping women, and have even murdered some. Some staff and friends know about it, but they keep quiet. Maybe to protect themselves, maybe to protect their families. The friends and family of the r*pe and murder victims have begged those people who know to expose them, what do you think about those people?

I think it's hard to say for me that those friends and family were problematic for begging those people who know and have evidence to expose them. I think they would feel desperate, and so I won't blame them for wanting to get justice for their family who were killed or r*ped while the culprits go scott free and get more victims.

Beyond that, I was thinking that possibly, some people here may have a kneejerk reaction when we hear about staff and friends who keep quiet about the higher-ups who r*ped, killed and drugged women, saying that they're horrifying cowards, but they sympathise with Saegye here. It's very tricky and up till now I cannot come up with any answer.
