I disagree, Sangwoo has all the right to sleep whit whomever he likes because he and Jae are not in a relationship, on Sangwoo’s perspective: they are only sex partners and Jae is leaving in a couple weeks. Sangwoo is the kind of person that wold never take a hint, if Jae is not clear about what he wants and feels Sangwoo will not understand.
I’d say that Sangwoo didn’t set out to have sex with someone else in this case, he was playing along with what the girl suggested to him because he was upset about being ghosted by Jaeyoung without an explanation; besides if I’m not mistaken, their relationship status doesn’t demand exclusivity so theoretically he’d have the right, Jaeyoung didn’t communicate his intentions clearly to him, which is the root of his upset in the end. I believe that what Sangwoo said in the first place about what he’d do when Jaeyoung left was actually misinterpreted (in that he didn’t mean he’d replace him, but that he’d try to save up as much memories of him as possible) but that’s my take, hopefully next chapter we will get to see some communication lol
That's not ignorance tho. Having a different way of thinking is just that, a different way of thinking about it. His concept of relationships is logical not emotional. Meeting him caused his viewpoint to change to emotional which he wasn't used to. So it confused him. That's not ignorance. That's someone with a different concept and view than you. That's it. Sry if this is coming off as rude lol
No it’s fine lol I don’t know if you think I mean he’s rude when I call him ignorant, but I literally mean the definition as in ‘lacking knowledge or awareness’, which I understand if he just has a different viewpoint on relationships, but he is at least lacking awareness about jaeyoung’s feelings and his own feelings, which is also what I was referring to, so he is technically ignorant in that sense
I also understand what people mean when they say they’re not technically in an exclusive relationship, but this point still doesn’t make sense to me personally. I feel like if the roles had been reversed and jaeyoung had accepted the previous girl’s invitation to go out, people would be rioting, but for some reason it’s fine, because sangwoo doesn’t understand why jaeyoung would be hurt? I feel like his intentions don’t matter as much as the people he’s hurt in the process, but that’s just me. Also they’ve been only sleeping with each other the entire course of their relationship so far and have never even considered other people, or seemed worried that the other person would be with other people, which gives me the sense that they had some indication of exclusivity, at least until jaeyoung left, which hasn’t happened yet. Plus jaeyoung had made it clear in front of sangwoo before when the girl asked him out that he considered himself to be seeing someone. It just feels wrong to let sangwoo go on the technicality of them not having their relationship super defined, when it’s clear to both of them that he’s only put himself in that situation to make him jealous (even if that’s not his fault cause he still ended up doing it), like suddenly that makes everything okay and jaeyoung has no right to be angry about it? And I also can’t be upset that jaeyoung will be hurt by it? I feel like as much as people like to say it’s fine cause they like sangwoo, in real life, anyone would be upset in that situation because you like to think they would care about you more than that to consider your feelings
Ummm so I get that sangwoo isn’t experienced at all in this kinda stuff, but ngl I would be super annoyed if I was in jaeyoung’s shoes, like I get he ignored him for a few days, but does that really give sangwoo the right to go sleep with whoever ? And I know he’s not aware of his feelings yet, but this just gives me the vibe that he’s not gonna be at all remorseful about the situation and hurt that he’s about to cause jaeyoung, especially since he’s STILL only thinking about him in terms of how good at sex he is. You can still like him and also accept that he’s not made good decisions and will have to suffer the consequences at some point. Being ignorant doesn’t mean he can treat people however and as disposable as he wants to
