More confusion. Wasn't the story always that Dojin had to take care of the mom because the dad was out of the picture and that their mom raised them on her own? I mean I've read the MS multiple times and once very recently. I don't get this, what is this setup? The dad is acting like they're still married, but how can that be?

Also the mom knows about Dojin and Taeju and I would imagine she knows Dowon is gay. I don't expect her to say anything to the dad and grandad, but maybe a head up to her sons, if she knows what these two bumbling idiots are up to? I've been questioning my sanity since this side story started because I know what I've read multiple time and it's not matching up with this side story. Please let me know if I missed or forgot something.

    I think I always skipped a lil bit of their family description or problems but after I read your comment and then look at the dad I thought mom just leave him out I mean look at him we can see mom took care of them all making all the decisions( ̄∇ ̄") well, it’s almost look like mom keep him around as a pet( ̄∇ ̄") His other role is to annoy his sons to get married

    I was thinking the same thing. I’m pretty sure it was mentioned previously that the mother raised them herself.

    In the story, their background was: the parents were divorced and the mom mainly had custody of them growing up. But dad was there for them still, just not physically. I'm rereading the story again and that's what happened. its just gets looked over because it was only mentioned like 2 times.

    I think the author retconned the Sa brothers’ backstory in order to create more conflict for the side stories. In the original story, the mom did raise them by herself and they weren’t well-off to live in such a huge house. Your sanity is fine, the author just changed the story.

    Yeah, they were neighbors with Taeju’s family who definitely weren’t wealthy.

    Ok, so I can buy that they are doing better now. Considering the look on Taeju’s face when Dojin showed him his account balance. Both brothers love their mother and are pretty well off, so I wouldn’t be surprised that they would make sure their mother at least (because this father and grandfather are strangers as far as I’m concerned) is living well. I also think she did ok for herself I. The end. I’ll have to go back and check again.

    Together I can guess the brothers are multimillionaires but they can’t be that rich? Could they? Could he afford that big of a house? I’ll accept this new reality but the author needs to stop at the big house. Imagine if they have another house?

    Ok. So I actually went back to reread, and so far have not gotten to the part when they discuss the mom raising them alone. But I did read the part where he talked about living in the country side as a child, not an apartment. Also, his family actually was not poor because they were mad at him for not finishing law school and being like the rest of the family. Maybe the mom did raise them herself, and didn’t have much of her own, but they don’t exactly come from poverty.

    I take back what I said, it was said in the side story that they lived in an apartment. Yeah, this makes no sense. I’m just going to ignore it
