That Saeboem truly is a psychopath. I can't even get angry anymore. He walks around as if the world is on his palm. I know he made for a villain role, but I just can't help but feel disgusted by his view. I bet after all this he'll just exist unscathed and will think he gives the main couple his blessing by let them go unbothered. Shit why again is he so damn more sexy than ml??? Why good natured ml always the golden retriever looks and personalities??? Korean's authors just love sexy characters having toxic traits.

"That if you didn't cut me off then, I would've kept hoping that you would one day come to love me"
THAT IS THE HURTFUL CONFESSION EVER SAID. He wants to be accepted when bearing thorns but his lover at that time only want the beauty of him.
They both hurt each other, Joobin for seeking comfort Baek-Un could never give and Baek-Un seeking acknowledgement Joobin could never give. They have expectations toward each other that is impossible to meet. Joobin needs the medicine for his pain while Baek Un needs the lover to complete him. They both just impossible to form sincere love.
I know there's no one really to blame, but I can't help but scoff when Baek-Un said the last thing he wants to hear is an apology. Man you deserved that discomfort. Tell me if I'm wrong as this has been so long when Joobin tell about his past, isn't Baek-Un just broke up with Joobin while they're doing sex? Like, bruh. As Joobin said how Baek-Un is the type to prioritize himself, that self important by disregarding other's feeling was indeed something would come from him.
I bet the creators will just excuse Ian's behavior as it comes naturally for an Alpha acted controlling or some past blame stuff.
Pretty sure they are going the “learned behavior” route cuz the dad is such a dick. But bro, if you have daddy issues, go find a bigger daddy instead of taking it out on the MC.
