“We need more complex female characters.” Couldn’t even handle her and her motivations were simple jfc. Just because her well meaning actions caused a small (yes it was small, no need to throw your shit at the fan) inconvenience to the love interests y'all were so intensely hating on her. And Ho puts it so well that she’s a child and children make mistakes. That’s a part of growing up and growing as a person.
Edit: to all the people who dgaf and still dgaf about her. This isn’t for you. So move along.
So is Jigu gonna drag him into his apartment out of jealousy, make a move, and make the misunderstanding a hundred times worse?
This comment section needs to improve their reading comprehension and their nuance.
“I know what it feels like to have a different life than others. And wanting to live a normal life like others. Being gay in this small village will be difficult because you will be living a different life than others. (And you may one day wish that weren’t the case.)” That’s her reasoning.
Now. Characters DO NOT have to have perfect reasoning or even good reasoning behind what they do. They are flawed beings. Which makes a story more nuanced and complex. You don’t have to agree with the character but missing the point entirely is embarrassing. Read between the lines— though this was pretty obvious.
I said what I said. I’ll take no further arguments. Especially with the people who just want to hate this character. Also she said she’d fix her actions. Acceptance and support do not have to be apart of her amending her initial meddling
Ok that was weird…..
Any recommendations with this trope lmfao
I recommend link in the hole (if you haven't read it yet) the plot is pretty similar to this. Where MC's "toy" is connected to his boss's ass
I’m scared. Thanks for the recc
No prob, I just read this and that out of curiosity and now I'm traumatized ┗( T﹏T )┛
When you get an update and have no recollection of what the story is about… then you see it’s because it last updated in 2021 rip
I was a student when I found this and now I'm a college graduate and still haven't got any updates of this story lol
Ya’ll hating on someone who was brought up in a society where homosexuality gets you ostracized or worse. The fact she’s not blabbing to everyone and is in her own (misguided) way, trying to help shows she’s actually really kind. And is already reflecting on the fact that her help is likely unwanted.
I don’t know how this situation will develop but the fact she brought up what she saw instead of beating around the bush shows she’s actually a really honest person.
There are varying levels to homophobia. This is barely there. Cause she legitimately cares about him and is worried. She’s going about it the wrong way but she also hasn’t experienced the world outside of her community in KOREA. You know, a country that is pretty anti-lgbt like all Asian countries are.
Edit: my country criminalizes “sodomy” and “trans expression”. There are no LGBT protections at all. Korea isn’t that extreme— though same sex-sex in the military is apparently criminal. SO. Think about it.
Yeah tbh she is pretty tame for someone raised in countryside sk
Mhm. Aside from full on acceptance. This is the best case scenario they have.
She’s young and seems like the kind of person who will eventually understand. She might not accept it initially but growth takes time and that’s okay.
Hell, in my home country, barely tolerating the existence of lgbt is already seen as being overly progressive. Or just something people don’t acknowledge.
you can really tell from the responses to m-ok who isn't queer and from a homophobic country...
Wdym? She saw them kissing, she knows what that means. She tried to convince herself that it was nothing between them. Then she decides that it best for Kwon to found a wife and she sign him up for a blind date. Can you tell me if it's not a denial then what is? You said she is kind? Kind or being nosy? Because why is she doing something unnecessarily. What if Kwon was not gay and with Ho, he just decides that he doesn't want to have a wife? Again. Unnecessary doing something that she need to. Kwon didn't asked for it.
If that's what happened, then it's okay. But she sign him up for a blind date, she wants to find a wife for him. Did he asked for it? No. Why did she think she need to do that for? Cuz she panicked and in denial. She found out the person she admired the most are kissing guy. So it's better for her to found him a wife lol
I feel like my overall point has been missed.
Tl;dr she’s misguided but isn’t doing anything maliciously. Consider her culture/country and why she may think to intervene in the life of someone she cares about.
“Being nosy” “doing unnecessary shit”. Idk what your life experience has been like but the people in my life (I would hope) would consider an intervention if I was doing something that they thought would ruin my life. Whether I agree with them or not, I know they do it out of love and not malice. And then we can talk it out— which I’m assuming is what will happen in the next chapter and then some learning can be done.
She jumped the gun with her actions. But honestly who hasn’t at some point in their lives? Lol she’s a kid.
Also seeing two men kissing… WE know what that means.
Assuming you’re not from a deeply homophobic country, you might be idk. People from countries like mine would react in disbelief and denial. Especially when it’s with someone they care about.
Blargh. I added an edit to the original comment and now the replies are gone— wtf
First he’s a sexual predator on his employee and then we find out he tried to choke out a child. Is this side story going to redeem him because I cant even begin to imagine how in the nine hells he’d be redeemable. Just put him into the wringer of karma and give him a bad end.
