It's funny how many essays out here rationalizing Dr. Han because we've been conditioned to accept the bare mininum of human decency. Dr. Han is not a good person. The author can redeem however they like and there are those who will readily accept it. But given how this character has been presented, his priorities, his actions, and lastly his rational he is not a good person. The end. Why he'll be reawarded in the end despite this all could be answered by the patriarchy, male privilege, society's forgiveness of "men with bright futures". Buy why he's rewarded today is because this genre has decided his happiness is more important than of those he's harmed and affected for the sake of a happy ending narrative we continue to force for the sake of our "perfect fantasies".
The main issue was that he's never had serious relationships. I don't think it actually said he's cheated and stuff (could be wrong) so that in itself is not that bad. The thing as a tutor, yes that was obviously not good however it up to them to decide if they can move past that. So I think your analysis of him is honestly way too harsh. It just seems like he didn't really know what love was and didn't understand what to do when someone loved him until now. Because only having casual relationships doesn't make you a bad person even if people get hurt because they fell for him.
Because other than not telling him about him being his tutor, he hasn't actually done anything wrong in his current relationship. He hasn't cheated or anything like that. He has just had a promiscuous past.
No one should care about his sexlife and this misdirection is actually getting quite annoying in how this justifies his behavior. His casual sex life is the low hanging fruit in this argument. It's his manipulation,gaslighting, and callousness that intersect with his casual sex life that is the issue. Seriously who cares if he fucks 1-200 people, what matters is his intentions have always been in his own self interest and others are justuseful as only necessary to pass his whims or current fancy. Having a threesome with people after you've already manipulate your patient who you already know and should be a conflict of interest nto being single by purposely giving wrong advice to ensure he's available for you to pursue not as a maybe but within the impression of a serious romantic relationship is scummy at the very least and disgusting to anyone with a moral compass.
It's not what's he's done before Hanghyuk it's what he's done parallel and specifically with Hanghyuk at various times in their now 6 years of knowing each other at this point that makes him a morally awful person. If you can accept thats fine, it's exhausting having to make excuses for shitty people but people do it everyday.
Maybe I'm forgetting parts of the story but I really don't know where any of this is coming from? Idk, if you could actually say the plot points where these things happen
I really like this plot but Yoon seul is just such a toxic person his whole thought process is awful and given how he's treated Joon with such selfish intentions hurting Joon in the process make me so sad for Joon, Joon really does deserve someone better. Sigh.
No if only he didnt actually end up in a relationship with his rapist which the plot will do regardless.
The enemies to lovers trope of let's fuck just because reasons, has to be most bizarre irrational reason for two people to fuck, when if you truly hated someone fucking them would be last thing on your mind.
I dont think he necessarily hates him, just hates that he's inferior to him. like he said he has an inferiority complex that was "planted" by him. its like your significant other cheated on you so you hate on the person they cheated on you with but its not necessarily that you hate the person but you just hate that your lover cheated on you with them so you push that on to them instead of blaming your lover, you blame it on them. he was mad that he was always second place and his parents took that out on him so hatred grew in him and he just blamed it on the reiji for his inferiority complex. sorry for the long as paragraph LOL.
also very thin line between hate and love, sometimes that line is blurry, cliche ik lmaooo
It's hilarious that it's the hetersexual incest between consenting adults everyone has an issue with but the giant red flag of coercive blackmailed rape sex isn't a problem. Lolz
I find it such a turn off when they do that. Focus on one partner's lack of sexual experience as some disease needed to be cured. Like the idea that I don't fuck everything that moves is something to belittle, and being fucked by some hedonist is something I should be thankful for. I just don't understand how that is seen as romantic. It just solidifies great you're a great lay but not an actual good romantic partner but somehow I'm suppose to ignore that because somehow I'm the magical virgin that will make you change your ways? It's honestly insulting.
I agree, that question is a complete turn off when asked like that. "I won't make fun of you (because I'm such a good guy)"?? Is it something to normally make fun off, then, is what you mean? Then right back at you: "How many of your relationships lasted more than a month? It's ok to tell, I won't make fun of ya"
Also notice how it will go both ways. If you're having too much sex you're a hoe (unless you're a good looking man) and if you dont have any experience boo hoo you're a virgin. People will find anything to scorn about.
That “friend” of his is a bad person
