Yeah, he treats him way better, but he still isn't listening to Kim Dan. He takes him everywhere and Kim Dan just wants to finish the treatment. The gifts also make him uncomfortable.

Heesung appears to be love bombing him. Heesung is manipulative and probably a red flag or what ever is before a red flag. Orange?

Maryland therapists say you may be in a toxic relationship if you experience these.
1.) Love Bombing- The beginning

This “perfect partner” individual may participate in what is called “Love Bombing.” This can consist of showing excessive attention, showering someone with compliments, and/or excessive gift giving.
So what is the point of love bombing early on the relationship? Often individuals who participate in love bombing understand that this can potentially “trap” someone into the relationship. It may seem that the relationship is all butterflies and rainbows in the beginning, but eventually there is a point where the love bombing stops and you see the person for who they actually are.

What is dangerous about love bombing, is that some people may be more likely to stay in the relationship even if things get bad because they want the “old partner” back. Unfortunately, the love bomber was never the partner’s authentic self.

What Is Love Bombing?
This form of psychological and emotional abuse is often disguised as excessive flattery

“Initially, you might feel safe, secure and swept off your feet because grand gestures are a self-esteem boost and make you feel important and desired,” says psychologist Alaina Tiani, PhD. “But the love bomber’s ultimate goal is not just to seek love, but to gain control over someone else. Over time, those grand gestures are an effort to manipulate you and make you feel indebted to and dependent on them.”

Love bombing is an abuse tactic used to lure or keep someone in a relationship. “

Love bombing is an abuse tactic used to LURE someone into a relationship. They don’t have to be in a relationship.

Also, this isn’t Stockholm Syndrome.

As we know, Stockholm Syndrome is a coping mechanism to a captive or abusive situation. People develop positive feelings toward their captors or abusers over time. This condition applies to situations including child abuse, coach-athlete abuse, relationship abuse and sex trafficking

This isn’t the right type of relationship abuse and if you look at psychological causes, signs and symptoms this story doesn’t fit.

It gives you 5 Examples of Stockholm Syndrome. None are close. 4 is the Stockholm syndrome abusive relationship. The abuse that causes Stockholm Syndrome isn’t there and there many elements that doesn’t allow to develop to Stockholm syndrome.
The original Beauty and the beast is Stockholm Syndrome but the Disney’s version isn’t. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1460&context=criterion#:~:text=The%20original%20Beauty%20of%20Beauty,syndrome%20have%20all%20but%20vanished.

Stop referring to this as Stockholm syndrome. It is not.

So true, at this point I just want Kim Dan to be happy and away from weirdos

Sorry, I didn't think it was that serious

It might not be Stockholm syndrome since this isn't even something that can be diagnosed, but "trauma bonding" and "battered person syndrome" has definitely something to do with it.

I was looking out for the story and you. I would want to know and figured you would want to know to stop calling a chair, a dog.

If you read my reply and that article, you wouldn’t open with “something that can be diagnosed.” If you did read you would know it doesn’t matter if it was. It is was diagnosable, it will never be Stockholm Syndrome.
It is closer to battered person syndrome but it doesn’t fit.
We are researching trauma bonding but it may not fit either.
I read the story as it. I don’t think you have an accurate interpretation.

https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/320747#what-is-it
What types of abuse can it involve?
Sexual abuse: This includes rape, unwanted sexual contact, and verbal sexual harassment.
There is no rape in jinx. If you see rape with Jaekyung and Dan that is your pov by not seeing all the details of the story and the facts.
Dan consented and agreed to this. It is unwanted 98% by thoughts but you have to ask yourself is it really? You are missing many things by hating this story or hating Jaekyung. Their first time is as SA and abusive not rape.
I don’t recall any verbal sexual harassment.

Stalking: This involves a person using threatening tactics to cause a person to feel fear and concern for their safety.

There is nothing of this.

Physical abuse: This includes slapping, pushing, burning, and the use of a knife, gun, or other weapon to cause bodily harm.

He has not slapped him or burned him. He has not used a weapon for bodily harm. He has pushed his head down in the pillow and slammed him on a bed. He covered his mouth.

Psychological aggression: Examples include name-calling, humiliation, or coercive control, which means behaving in a way that aims to control a person.

In their first time. He did coercion him but told him leave. His “coercion” later comes off as a 14 year old boy. It isn’t really controlling and it is what Dan signed up for. I don’t think most of the story supports this.

The symptoms don’t even describe Dan. Jaekyung is aggressive but he is not that aggressive with Dan. Jaekyung is toxic but he isn’t has toxic as you are trying to make him out to be.

Read to understand why Stockholm syndrome and battered person syndrome instead of imposing your opinion. I don’t think trauma bonding even fits. Why can’t you read what you like instead of making this more negative than what it is. Are you going to claim incest next?

We can’t say this Trauma bonding … yet but it is not that abusive relationship.
It is abusive but not how you want it to be.
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/emotional-sobriety/202109/what-is-trauma-bonding

Trauma-bonding lives in the nervous system. The brain makes associations between “love” and abuse or neglect.
Trauma-bonding is a hormonal attachment created by repeated abuse, sprinkled with being “saved” every now and then.
Trauma-bonding in adulthood can stem from childhood trauma.

Trauma bonding is what happens when a person has been in an abusive relationship and they feel the need to go back to the relationship, even though they've been highly abused," Dr. Joy Berkheimer, a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) told Salon. "They're in this cycle of the person pretty much professing their love and having them come back, even though they've been mistreated, even though they've been treated poorly."

Jaekyung hasn’t done the abusive behavior you want to claim this and what he did was at the beginning, which could you be misunderstanding his abusive behavior. It is SA. Yes. It is abusive. Yes. These terms you are using don’t fit.

This reply was for Madam who appears to be apart of that hate group. No wonder my comment was dismissed and ignored as trying to make the story worst than what it is.
(Madam has me blocked.)
