first before anyone misunderstands i loved this!! a lot! it's amazing.

second, the message of the story feels a bit all over the place to me because of mainly 2 things. I thought one of the messages was actually the idea of letting the past go and moving on, even though it is a story about reincarnation and being with your past love. Even forgiveness felt like a part of it as well, when taehyuk died in the past life and told Un to let it go, move on and live his life. Which is reiterated on the last chapter, of them moving on from the past etc (and is kind of represented by them meeting again in this life and not actually thinking they're each others mates and Un deciding to let his past go so he can stay with taehyuk before his memory came back).

All of this to say that when taehyuk gets his memories back he decides to cut ties with his brother? which I don't understand, especially when one of the themes is supposed to be letting the past go. and when his brother actually did understand what he did wrong, repented and changed his behavior accordingly. Yeah Taehyuk got his memories back, but what about the memories of this life with his brother, do they not mean anything? It felt like an odd choice. Again not a grievance against the story I just don't necessarily get it nor understand it.

And then the dude who kidnapped him, I know horrible dude, abhorrent dude. Did he not suffer enough tho? Like I actually thought taehyuk was going to tell Un to let it go. To lift the curse, the past is the past, and they're together again. The guy has suffered enough, when taehyuk even told Un to not get revenge in the first place. So again it felt odd that it ended the way it did. The guy going to jail and probably going to keep reliving the torture of his reincarnation.

Idk i'm gonna shut the fuck up now lol just some thoughts I had swirling around after binging this.
