I hate how he is trying to manipulate him. Make Jinyeong avoid everyone and just stay with him. But even tho he keeps underminding Jinyeongs feelings and abuse, saying that he is privileged and he has so much money. BUT, HE HIMSELF COULDNT HANDLE THE DAD AT ALL. He literally lost his shz just from a small interaction with the dad. Jinyeong in the other hand has to live with him. He has to endure his abuse. AND It’s also it’s not easy to cut off family.
I blame rik. he is old enough to understand the sht he is doing. He betrayed Jinyeong by taking advantage of his secrets. Just so he can hurt him as much as how he feels hurt. This Feels like how a wife can’t leave their abuser.

Old enough to understand? They're teenagers, high schoolers. Even adults can't figure these things out most of the time until 30+. You think you understand because you're the reader, but you're reading from both of their povs with the author spelling it out for you. When you experience these things yourself you'll just spiral, whoever shoes you're in. I suggest you read the more nuanced comments here to expand your perspective.

Right, like dude high schoolers aren't toddlers, they're very much capable of conscious malice, I get it he's had it rough but let's not act like he's innocent, he knew exactly what he was doing to Jinyeong, he was doing it BECAUSE he knew how much it would hurt him, that's literally the whole point, he's doing it to cause him damage, and this wasn't even his dads abuse vs J's dads abuse, he was lashing out about his treatment at school by higher classes BUT HES DOING IT TO THE PERSON WHO WAS ON HIS SIDE FROM DAY ONE, and you're right he couldn't even deal with J's dad from one moment meeting, so how does he imagine he treats J that has to deal with him all the time? The man literally broke your laptop gave it back to J to give back to you and told him to cut ties,,, social norms didn't stop him from breaking something that doesn't belong to him so how do you think he treats his son as his property?? Is he mad that J didn't publicly defend him at school or something? He hung out with him publicly till J's dad made them break up so he had to stay friends only secretly, he wants j to realize the pain he goes through?? He gets it, cause he empathized with you from the start, he didn't need to have a worse time to side with you, he didn't need toi to hurt him to side with you, you were the one that felt no empathy for him from the start and saw him as some rich kid with no real problems just cause "they weren't on your level of problems", if you didn't feel like you related then why did you start a friendship with him from the start instead of pushing him away cause you don't think your problems are the same??? From the start there was no empathy from him for J and then to turn around and use what J confided in him to hurt him? That's LOW

?? If he know he is going to hurt him. Then he knows what he is doing. Teens are aware of their choices and how they treat people. He knows that this will hurt him horribly and he intended to do it. His intention is wrong and he knows. And for your information shz like this happens a lot between relationships/friends etc. And this is why I commented on this.

People calling him an air head. Men are not stupid. The nail on the coffin was that line.
It does not justify what he did. Even if the author is trying to show you “nothing went wrong”. If your partner did the same, i think you will start doubting the person you are with. 100% I will. Like imagine if your boyfriend went to his new female coworker house, cooked, and slept over because they felt bad that they got hit and dumped.
That’s their business, why does he have to put his nose into it and even help out? Okay he can give some comfort and be there for his coworkers. he doing too much.

Literally, I’m single and never dated. But even I know that this is wrong. in the real world this shz won’t pass.
“he didn’t do anything wrong”. Yes. He. DID.
you can already see that it started. This shz won’t leave the uke. Once he started doubting this will stick to him. And this is game-over for a relationship to work. This is 101 relationship breakdown.. not trusting your partner.
And the pink hair is coming to the bar for what? Because broski feels guilty AF. He knows what he did was wrong and is trying to do everything to “help” the situation.

Nahhhh.. I don’t trust him anymore. Especially knowing the cheating epidemic in Japan. And even when they are try to “salvage” it later on .. if they were two straight men then I wouldn’t have complains but they both aren’t and they both know. If it was a guy and a girl then it would’ve been a big no no. so I don’t see how this isn’t the same. especially this line “If I were single”.. why don’t you just start making out
The audacity of this old geezer.
1. He is fukin 24 years older than her.
2. I want a wife to make my bed warm. Disgusting degenerate.
3. OH U ARE LIKE MY WIFE (Replacement).
4. she said NO. NO MEANS NO.
5. Sends gifts as harassment.
6. Thinks he is a prize.
7. He is American
8. Your age is not a flaw to me. BRO SHES 24 YEARS YOUNGER THAN YOU.
9. Telling her to drop and sacrifice her ENTIRE LIFE to just live in America for a geezer.
number 7 is more than enough reason to reject him.
