he is prolly gonna have a trauma because of his parents and thats why he turned into an asshole when in reality there is nothing more harder than experiencing poverty and doing things just to fcking survive and the fact that Dan stayed kind all that is fcking amazing. (Although I do not invalidate any traumas is just that its so overused and authors always use this type of trauma to justifiy all the pain they caused to others when in reality they can use a much better prompt) But anyways I'm still reading this sht cause the author actually did great on designing Jaekyung's face & body so I'm so sorry if pretty privelege works on me T~T never seen a man that looks this good fr.

No personal attack here ! I am just curious about your opinion as what can be done better for the redemption arc and why using the "parent trauma" is too stereotypical for you when, I believe, parent trauma can easily be a source of trauma for anyone so in a sense relatable for everyone ?
Is it too predictable or easy to have "parent trauma" as a background story for a character ?

No, its because they just use this type of trauma so easily without actually buidling a better phasing and better prompt on how jaekyung's trauma progress, as someone who experienced the same trauma you can't just use this as an excuse to all the sht you did to another person, to make my point shorter, they should have made it into better prompt cause clearly they did not so it made his back story so shallow, it would have been better if they actually shows some signs of Jaekyung experiencing this trauma prior cause now everything just looks like an excuse to justify what he did and its dumb as fck to see especially not when Jaekyung saw how Dan also suffered prior too which makes him a total douchebag. But sorry if you were offended don't worry I will never make an opinion on something I did not experience so don't take this so hard its just on a reader's stand point. ^^

Don't worry, I'm truly not offended by what you wrote in your comment ! As I said before I was just asking because I was genuinely curious ! In no way I took it personally and I see what you meant about Jaekyung so no worry!
I didn't read BJ Alex so I can't really compare but I still figured out what you meant without knowing about it.
Thank you for taking your time in responding to me and answering me seriously ! Have a nice day !

I mean in JJ's defense Leo was a sht bf tbh so like he kinda deserved that cause he took him for granted but like I can't hate Leo but he needed this lmao

Yes... And no.
I was in j.j shoes not long ago with my bf, hé was too much, not "listening" to me and doing his life with casting about mine..... I thought. Because he didn't in fact, i just NEVER told him. I took for granted thé fact that hé would understand me each second and NEVER thought that yeah, WE don't work thé same way, it's impossible for him to know if i don't tell him. And that's exactly j.j's problem. Hé said nothing.
Im gonna die the sexual tension between him and the mushroom HAHAHAHAA
