I wanted to give taegu grace but Lord this entire season he's been nothing but a nuisance. Even his backstory didn't redeem him. He is literally one of the main reasons yw was getting beaten black and blue. In what world can you ever believe yw deserves to be with someone like that? And so far we've not seen any apology for that shit. Like you are a grown man pining for someone who has made it clear to you they don't want you not only cz they love another but as much as Yw doesn't hold grudges he just doesn't want a person that has ruined countless lives as a partner. I'm so glad for once a series isnt romantising thug romances. I wouldn't want to be with someone like this simply because "they're so nice to me so I see no problem with him fucking up other people's lives."
Yw quitting working for him and not wanting to return was the first sign that he needed to just leave him alone. This father/brother figure bs is not an excuse to be so dismissive of someone's boundaries. Is it because he is older or because of the history that he feels he can't just let yw live his life? Once again I say yw is a grown man and it is in his right to live the life he wants. Taegu not liking seoin don't mean shit.
For arguments sake let me accept taegu is in love with yw, why didn't he make a move until someone that yw likes came along? That's so calculated. That is so weird to me like you had all this time to make a move now when your chances are zero you just want to be a cockblocking agent of Satan? Yeah, no! All of a sudden you want to be in his space all the time. Just leave. If you clock that someone doesn't feel the same way you do leave. Sometimes you'll make them hate you simply because of your unwanted presence. Seoin has every right to tell yw he needs to create distance. Couples have to tell each other stuff when they spot weird shit. Y'all saying he's being manipulative are the people that let outsiders interfere in yalls relationship then wonder why things didn't work out.
Lastly, just because you like someone doesn't mean things have to work out. People have the right to reject a person they don't want regardless of how nice the other person is. No one is owed love that someone doesn't want to give. Read the room accordingly and leave. Taegus relationship with yw is on the chopping block. His little stunt to guilt seoin to leave ain't working in his favour. We all know who's at the top of the priority list for yw and it ain't taegu. Nowhere has yw spoken with so much love that taegus presence kept him going, all that was dedicated to seoin his beloved. Seoin ain't perfect but you can't knock him down for not putting his best foot forward and apologizing and holding himself accountable. All season what has taegu done but make yw uncomfortable with every interaction they have. Even in love there has to be respect for boundaries especially when you've been made aware you are crossing them.
