wow. It's amazing how even purposefully bullying someone has not made me frustrated and enraged yet. The author is really damn good at nuances. Song rik knows exactly what he's doing and why he's doing it, to be told that birth family is the 'real' family despite everything, without thinking about just how shitty song rik's dad is and how he could never think like that must've hurt exactly like what jinhyeong is feeling rn. They're rehashing their deepest hurt to each other and goddamn, that hurts.
The only thing that separates them is that jinhyeong did it unknowingly, and song rik isn't. However, hurt is hurt and the impact doesn't reduce just because of different intentions and ignorance so I get where song rik is coming from. A part of him probably also knows that jinhyeong didn't entirely mean it and he's also desperately clinging to his father as almost a last resort but still wants to hurt him because the words were just too much, Damn.
I really hope that after this manhwa is done, the author continues to produce more works, they're just really good.
