I actually quit reading around 30-40ish chaps this since I'm not sure who the ml is yet and im not that keen on triangless buttt I'm honestly rooting for the Jo guy not only bcs i just find the gentle exterior-tough interior trope he got going on more attractive but also bcs of the symbolization of the life the MC will choose to take moving forward bcs picking Jo is essentially moving on and having a clean slate(quitting gang life possibly) and the TJ path is the polar opposite which is being stuck in the abyss(the gang life) and I think he deserves a choice that he wants just thinking abt himself and not if the responsibility/debt he may feel he has but again im not rly caught up so I'm not sure if this is still the case

More than anyone else in this story the person who needs revenge is hak ji kang, it's just fcked up for real being exploited and disrespected to filth even after your death to no end by the one you love nonetheless, i hope he kills him with his own hands if he ever obtain one (hopefully without compromising soho's existence)

What I rly like abt this aside from the actually smart MC is that, ML is actually a rly decent green flag if he wasn't being brainwashed his whole life, and even being able to fight the restrictions and the rules of his world by himself even tho he's still under it, bcs alot of MLs out there especially with tropes similar to this (redemption, regret, angst) most of the time the problem is actually their lack of communication and observation skills towards the female lead, and some are actually just a bunch of manipulative dung, and so he's actually one of the neatest written male leads out there if we rly think abt it

Basically what I'm saying is he may have hurt her in the beginning but we can understand why it may have been unintentional and not of his own volition while others have intentionally hurt the female or have not been thoughtful enough of the female's circumstances and that's why their actual romantic chemistry is much more satisfying to watch than others with redemption tropes
I forgot the story so im gonna start from the top but ik it's gonna be so good cus that's what my brain memo pad told me
