Its not Byuls fault. He really is a bad parent. So much he gets depressed over his parents, yet he is being a bad parent too!!ヽ(`Д´)ノ
If you gonna spout your fairytale sympathy on depressed people crap, dont bother (:

excuse you. #-.-)If you had just been told your mother abandoned you, im sure you would want to be alone for some time. HE WAS FUCKING ABUSED. Many abused people tend to fall into depression. He wants time to be alone right now after being told his mother abandoned him, after his abusive father forced his way into his life again JUST FOR MONEY. ALLLLLLL parents have had those days where they just NEED to be by themselves, especially when something bad happened or theyve just been told some bad news. He loves Byul and is a good parent to him.

DUDE HE'S HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN AND YOU WANT HIM TO TAKE CARE OF BYUL?? CANT YOU REALIZE THAT HAVING BOTH RESPONSIBILITIES CAN HARM A CHILD?? WHAT IF BYUL CAN UPSET HIM OR ANYTHING AND HIS TRAUMA TRIGGERS AND MIGHT SHOUT AT BYUL??? CANT YOU THINK THAT POSSIBILITY?? ITS NOT SYMPATHY BUT AS A PERSON, IDC IF HE'S A CHARACTER BUT AS A PERSON, he need some time and that's all he need, TIME to figure things out he's not abandoning the child dude lol

so, like, u just want him to hug Byul like that? u dont understand that he needs some time alone?? if you dont like us having sympathy to Hyesung, then as a person who also has the same trauma as this child has then, its not sympathy its not anything then as a person who is in the same situation to him bro its not easy to deal with this kind of thing to him, i cant even have myself talk to people or even hug them or do anything to them when i was having a mental breakdown just like him, i even leave my friend's house and gone for 3 days with a few money or food just so i can figure things out as a i am done with my breakdown i came back to them and im glad they still accept me not because i ran away and just came back looking shit, but they considered me as a part of their family
me not having children is no excuse, so dont use that

LMAO. Who calls themselves "mature?" And where in this chapter did Hyesung take it out on Byul? He didn't hit him, and Byul has so many family members to take care of him. Hyesung isn't neglecting him. That's the part that confuses me. He simply needs some alone time to process the events, but y'all think yourselves too strong for that.

It’s not about having children or not, it’s about handling your mental breakdown and depression. I hope you never have to experience going through this but as someone who does, let me tell you that there’s a reason I always make sure to walk away when I have my episodes because I had times where I either verbally or physically hurt people around me and those I care about. You don’t know how much it hurts to keep carrying the guilt that I hurt them even if they still decided to stay with me. So yeah, you feel as if he’s not a good parent for not holding or taking care of Byul but would you rather have him lash out and hurt the baby? Dojin knows this, he is giving Hyesung space and he is taking care of Byul whilst making sure the baby knows mommy doesn’t hate him. And that is what they can do right now. So stop being an insensitive prick because I believe the majority don’t share your opinions. Good luck in life.

uhhh, the author didnt show those moments cuz we also have another side stories of the other characters and we can already know him and byul are having the best day of their life not until that bastard came to his home and forcing himself to enter his life thats not good excuse for hyesung is neglecting his child

its not about pity, genius, its about a person having a fucking worst of their life and sharing it can make you understand that not all people has the same mindset like yours, you're "mature" "not childish" "strong" whatsoever but telling us that we're gaining some pity to other people that's where you're wrong dude :>

no one....blamed byul for anything.....where tf did u get that from? also um...Hyesung is suffering from traumatic situations and not everyone has the same mental strength so please don’t call Hyesung a bad parent he really didn’t deserve any of this. i don’t understand why you have such hate towards him

It's clear you never dealt with your issues from your naive mindset on this topic. The child has another loving parent, loving friends, aunts, uncles, grandparents. His mom needing time to himself doesn't doesn't mean he's abandoning his child. And sure as hell doesn't make him a bad parent. You should really deal with your issues soon or you'll end up in a similar situation down the line. Good luck child.

I don't hate him. I hate how weak he's being over this. There are more worst things that could happen to you than this. Hes a grown-up and parent. Parents should no longer be a reason for him to get like that. If i was in his position I'd be holding my kid for strength. Not shoving him aside, much less could i live with myself of making him cry because I can't get myself up from whatever is happening to me.

He HAD time to himself already. I never said he abandoning his kid but he shouldn't be neglecting either. Ive already delt with my issues thank you. Its why i hate seeing people like this, even in a story because its pathetic to me. You're also just wanting me to have sympathy but no thanks not for him.

Everyone should stop bothering responding to this kid. Its obvious from his reaction and the fact that he told us he went "through shit" (yet he doesn't go around telling his sob story, lol) that the reason he's so upset about this is because he hasn't faced his childhood trauma. Most likely had a parent(s) who literally abandoned him (not like what happened in this story) or didn't put him first and he can't hide his resentment. Move on, nothing else to see beyond a kid who needs some therapy.

What are some of those "worst" things? And that's how YOU would respond. People respond differently, but you're acting as though any other way than YOUR way is wrong. People can step away for a bit to not hurt their loved ones due to their emotions. Have you ever gotten so mad over something and needed time to cool down? It's like one of those moments. But because Byul is young, he doesn't understand. Some of you guys are like worshipping Byul or something.

Im not telling you my sob story. You saying i haven't lived but guess what, i have. I don't have trauma and I ain't about to go telling you about my story either. But I am one of those few who got their shit together and didn't make a pity story about my life and blaming it all on that like you and every other idiot here. It's not my fault i have stronger mental fortitude than most of the idiots here crying because i don't agree with them, including you (:

Any way that affects the people around you is that wrong. Its makes you selfish. And yes i have been that upset but im grown up enough to handle my emotions that it doesn't affect the people around me. I dont worship byul, but i do have younger siblings who i raised as well and this kind of shit is not okay for a child. They have ZERO blame for your stupid issues that you cant grow out of.

hmm i understand what your saying but everyone is different. maybe he needs to be alone. no one is prepared to be a parent so let’s not blame his parenting techniques, he is trying his best after all. again, everyone suffers differently so you shouldn’t critique the way he handles his stress and his trauma. sometimes parents do need to be away from everyone, including their children just for some personal time. Everyone needs personal time once in a while so we shouldn’t exclude Hyesung, or parents in general, from having that luxury.

So if I make people happy, it's wrong because it's affecting people around me. I don't think you understand my comment. I said that what Hyesung is doing is similar to how you would want to step away before your anger gets to you so that you don't hurt the people around you. In no way was he lashing out at anyone. He didn't hit anyone, didn't insult anyone. But all because he made Byul cry (and kids can cry for so many reason), some people just like flew off the rails. They ignored the tiny gesture he did with Byul (holding his hand). Maybe he just wants to be alone and doesn't want to let people see him like that. BUT NOOOO. That's apparently neglect to you people.

He already abandoned his kid once, hes also had the time aswell. I think he's got enough time to pick himself up. Its not like that happened in one day. If it had been the same day I'd agree. But it isnt, and hes already been a parent for a while now. Its no longer an excuse. Its not about him anymore, its about the people who now depend on him like his kid that h can't be behaving like he used to.

I bet this person and Mio are against abortion because this is literally the argument people use for being against abortion. They're really putting kids up on a pedestal. Not saying that kids don't matter, but they stated that you gotta drop everything for children even if that person is yourself. Gotta destroy yourself before you can destroy your kids.

Again, everyone is different. Some people need more time to heal and needing more time to heal doesn’t deem someone as weak. True that he does now have a baby to look after but again, people do need their own time once in a a while whether it be to relax, collect their thoughts, or just personal self time. It’s not selfish to have time dedicated to yourself and it’s actually recommended to relieve stress.

Like I said in the scenario, you're 10, forced to have a kid because of the people around you. You cannot legally make that decision due to your age. But because it's your kid, you cannot have your own childhood and are forced to make sure the kid leads a good one THAT YOU CANNOT HAVE. You make it sound easy to walk away.

shit dawg you're almost in your 30's and you talk like that, IM ACTUALLY LAUGHING SM THIS IS SO DAMN EMBARRASSING FOR YOU. your comment shows your lack of perspective, and outlook in life. and i seriously thought you were like a 15 year old talking. the fact you're taking your time to reply to all these comments, and your over-inflated ego of thinking that you're right and everyone against you is ignorant. what a dumbass, get a life dude. this is rlly sad for you, calling yourself "mature" but spouting a bunch of shit that contradicts that statement, and thinking stating your age would make things better. I JUST MAKES YOU LOOK A LOT MORE STUPID.

I'm not saying what you're saying is wrong. But people can't possibly think so far ahead into the future. Life takes you wherever. Things happen where you least expect it to happen.
Look, I'm seriously just trying to wrap my head around the opposing viewpoints. My stance is that it's fine to step back and think about yourself. Because when you do, you can become stronger and more mentally capable. In that position, you can better take care of your kid. But if you disallow yourself to mull over your past and process the events, you can keep darker emotions hidden until it breaks out. You can hurt your kid even worse. I find that there's more strength in overcoming your trauma, whatever it may be, than never giving yourself the chance to. In this case, we'll have to see what Hyesung will do in the next couple of chapters.

@Feh, I do agree with what you just said about taking some time for yourself and be overall a better person. But I just can’t see myself to sympathize with him anymore. He’s unconsciously doing the same thing his parents did to him when he was young, and that is not okay. What he’s doing may not be as worse as his parents did, it’s still the same scar he’s carving onto Byul.

Just because he didn’t shout at Byul or wtvr doesn’t make it okay or an excusable behavior. Besides, even if he do have some caretakers, it’s still different from a mother. It sounds like some wattpad shit (when a badboy gets a bad experience from a relationship and does the same thing he experienced to a girl who loves him fr) while I do understand where he is coming from, it’s still not okay. Also, just because I called out his behavior I suddenly lack empathy and human decency? How about you develop some empathy and human decency for the kid?

Hmmm... This thread is interesting..
Lemme just say this... Everyone's different on how they would cope up to their situation..
Let's just say.. Hye-sung is an abandoned child, without much parents love and became independent too early is TRAUMATIZED by his abusive father..
There are 2 paths where this often generally leads:
1. Either he becomes emotionally sensitive to everything and would distance himself to others and would definitely be afraid of the concept of "family" considering the environment he was brought up...
Explains why he left dojin and byul before because his image of "family" is a mess.. afraid of what might happen to his and the kid's future that might turn out like his own parents considering just like him, his parents also did a "Shotgun wedding" since they had him accidentally...
2. Would harden his emotion and just consider becoming independent.. like how he is in the beginning., Not caring about his surroundings, or what might the ppl around him say.. just a very independent person who doesn't want to involve himself with the concept of "family"
This would often lead to "killing" their emotions for the benefit of moving forward and not looking back.. would probably work yourself to death for the family to avoid his "history" to repeat itself..
I understand Mio's point that parents are supposed to be there for their children and once you're a parent, you have to think about your kids first.. but Parents are humans too and kids have sensitive senses.. they can feel when there's something wrong with their parents...
Hye-sung is a Kid who got pregnant at an early age, without the right concept of "family" with him, it's natural to he afraid.. he's 20.. supposed to be a college student worrying about studies, but instead have to work and worry about his daily expenses, and being pregnant and pushed to a wedding suddenly did not help...You can't expect a person who didn't grew up properly and without proper environment to become a proper parent in a flash.. and there's no closure to everything he experienced.. everything is being thrown at him all at once.. A normal kid wouldn't be able to cope up mentally and physically to everything..
Yes, life is not a fairy tale.., But just like science and math problems it's not easy to solve everything immediately.. it needs time to think, calculate and proper solving...

if ur argument is DonT have a childe if ur not ready, 1) remember he didn’t actually want this child in the first place . 2) he was trying his best to be a parent until this situation that has deeply emotionally affected him, he isn’t only shutting his child out of his life. He’s shutting everyone out. Don’t act like he’s neglecting his child. Does his child not have a father? Does his child not have loving extended family that can help care for him? Like y’all really wanna sit here and act like mental health ain’t a thing :)

Babe, there clearly is a problem with you. You arent loved by your family properly tgat is why you dont know what is wrong nor is wrong, do not fucking read the story because even the author who made the story deeply knows what hyesung is going through, shut the fuck up and keep your stupid opinion in yourself. ~~

The severity is the part we're both not agreeing on, which is fine. I just don't think it's affecting Byul as much as you think it is. I know children can be perceptive to human emotions, but I feel like Byul is more on the understanding side. Although he can't possibly understand the intricacies of Hyseung's past, I think he'll be able to understand the need for having time for yourself. If you were to explain in simpler terms such as "Mommy wants to rest a bit, but he'll come back and play with you when he's ready." I think what's gonna happen in future chapters is that Hyesung overcomes his past and accepts it, and he's just continue to be loving towards Byul. Byul will still love him, and Hyesung will still love him too. Relationships is complicated, but it can be mended with effort.

You are honestly so disgusting, you havent experienced being a parent yet so who the fuck gave you the right to order what parents should feel? He wasnt taking out his anger and feelings on byul, you can clearly see that he tried to smile infront of byul but he cant, so he simply says "please, i need some time alone" and youre here assuming shits please stfu
