And that's why I have a soft spot for him. If he grew up in ideal circumstances, he wouldn't be half as bad...I hope. This is not to say that broken people deserve to hurt other people, and that other people deserve to suffer their brokenness.
I just hope that this story doesn't translate to its readers (including me ) as a green light and recognize it for what it is: a tragic story that just happened to be pretty.

youre completely right, i tots agree w u on the whole "if he had better circumstances he wouldve been a good person", its p much identical to sangwoo in ks (b4 he got f*cked up he was clearly a v kind child)... however, that still doesnt excuse their behavior (obviously- like u said) bcuz now they ARE rlly rlly bad people, and should be thought of as such. Even tho it can be w a twinge of pity or sadness... u kno wat i mean?
srry that was so long haha

Yeah I know what you mean. I know they're bad meaning bad, not bad meaning good, yknow? Still, a part of me wants to coddle the child that seungho once was, just like I would for others around me, even myself. It's always just sad when you know people could've turned out differently had they grown up with love.
It's already hard to keep my judgment intact as a reader so I'm holding my prayer beads for nakyum as the one experiencing it firsthand. Like I'm watching him spiral down into Seungho and I can't do anything about it
Not by a lot but like if you'd have to compare? Black hair dude is obsessive and idk he just doesn't seem well mentally lol. The sunbae can express himself better. He cares about the mc just maybe not in the way mc wants him to?
But i don't want mc to end up with either of them. He's at a mental space (low self-esteem, lonely) where he can't properly set boundaries around himself. When you're at such a low point, you really shouldn't be letting people into your life. So much imbalance
