Sehee being too busy actually does make sense there’s a joke that the only holiday you get in Korea is by being dead. Tho usually they do let you skip work for funerals or weddings so maybe she’s just in a crazy shitty company
That makes more sense. I guess I just found it odd, considering she was also pretty close with his grandma. I guess it’s just the author creating ways to give the main couple time alone together, so she’s conveniently unable to join them often. It makes sense that the author is trying to further romantic development, but it’s too bad it’s at the expense of se-hee.
I really like this story. I really like it because I relate to the main character. I feel like he lives his life trying to do the right thing and the mature thing and be responsible, taking care of SeeHee. Putting others first. But doing that he doesn't have much happiness for himself, he doesn't prioritize it. He's lonely and depressed and only has work. When he tried to do the right thing by Jun Heon it only hurt and isolated Jun Heon. Doing the right thing is good but he made himself and Jun Heon unhappy. Well no way he could have dated a child obviously.
Now they are both adults I like the main character admitting that he doesn't know how to solve the situation. Jun Heon is an adult now and can make decisions for both of him. The MC doesn't always have to be responsible and in charge. I hope that Jun Heon's decisions and different priorities bring them happiness.....but I kinda doubt it. Because of the crime.
* both of them
I guess the crime plot adds the suspense. Otherwise it would just be a story about "immoral" dating or dating someone with a different age and worldview and whether it would work out.
I think even if we always make the right decisions in our life and always do the moral thing that doesn't guarantee a good outcome or any reward. Well that's been my experience.
I actually find it kind of ironic and funny. Jun Heon doesn't care very much about right and wrong he just wants to do what makes him happy...I guess that's why he's a criminal

There are just so many things that make it cliche, too convenient, or just uncomfortable. I find it hard to view their relationship as anything but familial, the characters lack a lot of depth apart from some trauma, and being fifteen years over the age of someone you practically raised and not completely shutting them down feels morally wrong. There are small things that make the story unnatural, I thought it was weird for se-hee to be too busy with work to attend her close friend’s grandma’s funeral (?), but that’s really just nitpicking. Overall it just feels fundamentally off; I don’t like the age gap, the characters seem very flat to me, and the plot is uninteresting to me. Just my two cents, I’d love to hear the opinion of anyone who disagrees and why.
