It's easy to say that "just take the money" but it's not that easy to actually do that. Especially to Jiwook who was working hard ever since he was young, even took a break from school to earn money.
Some readers here live in such a fairy tale or are golddiggers who would take any money lol what are you even saying

And let's not forget that in school Sungeon was quite violent, he even hit Jiwook once, broke in his house. And his (very influental) family did not like Jiwook either. Later he kidnapped and raped him. And even after 12 years Sungeon thought it would be a good idea to kidnap and watch him AGAIN and make him do sexual favors (rape him) in case of a missing payment.
If you would like to receive money/help from a person like that, you need serious help. At least have some pride yourself
You know I FUCKING hate the mc like wtf why can't he just use his brain like bro seungeon is giving him money but he won't take it because of his "pride" like bro if god gives you something you should take it why are you out here making things harder for yourself like you can just ask for money from seungeon but I guess it's his personality that's what the author wants so I should respect it but like isn't the mc too dumb???
