yeeesss, thank you my friend for these words of wisdom...
Of course, Seungho was once a victim himself, but the trauma that he endured is merely an explanation and not a justification for his actions. Nakyum did nothing wrong, and was still abused horribly. Nakyum deserves better. Yes, hopefully they can each overcome their trauma, and hopefully Seungho can again become the person he once was, but it would be best for them to do so separately.
EXACTLY HOW I FEEL
I understand what you guys mean about them parting ways. But I think it's really hard for a person to overcome their trauma alone. I think the key in this case is to help each other. In the beginning they initiated positive changes in each other. Even though they found themselves in a bad situation, they did connect. Unfortunately everything went to hell. But I think there's still hope.
If they are each on their own again they'll just continue to be the way they were. Both were leading a really miserable life and they'll go back to that. I think they need each other.
Thats a really interesting point, I didn't think of it that way. Still, maybe they could overcome their trauma with other people? It's just that the idea of them staying together, despite the abuse that Seungho put Nakyum through really rubs me the wrong way. I genuinely don't think they need each other, I can definitely see how it would feel that way for them though. I know this is all just fiction but I can't help but think if these were people who existed right now, it would be a terrible decision overall for them to stay together.
tru
I feel you. It's natural to get emotionally invested in the story and the characters. We care about them and wish the best for them.
It's easy to empathize with Nakyum because we witnessed all the abuse he was subjected to. But we tend to forget that Seungho was once a victim himself and he still is in a way. There was a time when Seungho wasn't an abuser, those who know him best (Jihwa and Mr Kim) don't hate him, they care about him, because they know the person he once was is still there. And Nakyum saw a glimpse of that person too. I feel for both of them. They have suffered a lot. I hope we get to see them overcome their trauma together and build a relationship as healthy as possible.
