Right?! Honestly, I feel like Taekyung didnt even really have much of a character development and if he did, it was too small for me to notice it. I feel like the author really added him in was to add development to Joowons character instead of his own and it kinda sucks. I'd like to Taekyung actually be a character with an ending too instead of a lose string that was only added to develop an already existing relationship
imo taku is supposed to represent someone who chose not to grow, at least in that moment... he thought about moments where he’d been in the wrong during haesoo breaking up with him, but didn’t take any responsibility for them... it’s something that happens in real life. he didn’t really add to joowons character growth, especially since they haven’t interacted since the break up and joowons growth took place after that. so I don’t think the author “used” taku for that, instead making a purposeful choice for his own character arc because he’s a separate person. not everyone will change how and when they should. but the author still gave him his own happy ending so I hope y’all enjoy that (:
Yall be caring about Joowon, but are we not gonna talk about Taekyung I mean like as much as I like Joowon and his character develop we have someone who deserves love just as much.
