basically, she looks up to chief, she likes him platonically. i think it’s idolizing. Because of her shitty family, she doesn’t want the one person she looks up to to struggle, (being in a sam sex relationship is obviously tense in south korea, but the tension increases in smaller, secluded areas). she is not homophobic, she simply cannot bare to see the chief struggle if their relationship becomes a public topic within the town, hence why she doesn’t support the relationship. also, it could be the fact that the other man has a child. she could see him in a rocky way because he’s a single father and she was neglected. maybe envy for the child? her opinion is goes way deeper than what u see surface level. she wants chief to have a chance of getting out of the town too, hence why she’s setting him on online services than talking to people abt it.
