Well this chapter spells it out. The "hate" Haesoo thought he felt for Joowon was never hate at all. It was just him hating the fact that he LIKED this redhead lol. Haesoo knew from the moment they met that he was attracted to Joowon and would come to like him very much. But with their families being pushed together like this, haesoo even wanted to stop the marriage and he had to do anything he could to shove down his feelings.
Their relationship from this flashback point was set up to fail from the start. Which is why I'm glad once it was confirmed the remarriage would never happen, Haesoo and Joowon first spent time apart and Haesoo especially healed emotionally. They broke out of their unhealthy cycles, and are now starting a new, better relationship together. And now they can express the love they felt for each other all along, that they could never put into words before due to their taboo.
you speak nothing but the truth!! and some ppl want to bash those who like joohae as being "incest shippers"... when the context about their relationship and everything with the conflict in this story is so important in order to understand and accept Joohae
