if no one ever showed you how to communicate, how not be a dick, and the only father figure you had literally yelled at you, you were beat, abandoned, degraded everyday, grew up around thugs and gangs, etc. how could you end up being kind when no one has taught you how to be good?
let's blame this part as a poor representation cause there's not enough evidence to show his interactions with other people to prove that he learned some proper manners at all. We just kinda assume he grew up with his dad as a role model, but ofc, like everyone has pointed out, he gotta had some other interactions with teachers, friends, at work,... during his childhood.
remember when mc was having a meal with the doctor and that one girl (apologies i don’t know her name)? they were so chatty w the mc and then guwon shows up and they were silent like lil mice and eventually left. idk why our mc didn’t catch that. i feel like most ppl in the town avoid guwon unless absolutely necessary











the mc KNEW that he was a victim and ml purposely made him a honey or whatever they call it. why is he getting upset now? he knew this!! i’m giving this one chapter to clear this up or im dropping
Maybe bruv just didn't think that the ML did the same thing to anyone else. Like, after finding out that he wasn't the only one who lost their taste cuz of the ML, he'd see the ML as even more of a messed up pervert and would probably start questioning his motives even more. Just my guess tho.
