Most people will have your same point of view. So I at the very least wouldn't say your narrow
minded. I'm not Asian so I can't really speak on that part but even in other cultures you do have parents that do what you said without being accountable for the pain and suffering they inflict on their children. Just thinking about it pains me and evoke emotions of wanting to comfort those with this type of trauma especially.
The mom at the very least has a conscious. But obviously not enough to have stepped up to right tge wrong of her child that is still alive.
Feeling unwanted is a very hard and complicated trauma to deal with. I applaud those who have been able to work through this. It can definitely trigger other negative thoughts and low self esteem, etc.
I'm at the very least glad Shinwoo has someone who is there for him so he can start healing. Even though I think it is premature and based on the storyline he is still struggling. But for Shinwoo to be conscious enough to try and not keep blaming his mother speaks volumes and shows a mindset change in my eyes. It's easy to keep blaming others for our short comings and hard accepting accountability especially in these situations.
Good for you Shinwoo! That includes anyone irl. Don't expect perfection. Just do the best you can for yourself. And work towards being happy. And if you are struggling consider therapy. It can help with the right therapist.

Don't get me wrong, I understand where the mom is coming from. She lost a child and feels guilty about it. But, abandong your other child who is still alive aint it. And I know she wasn't in the right mindsetbut man... I just can't feel sorry for her knowing the hell the MC went through.
Also, why is it that parents, especially asian parents can't seem to apologizefor their mistakes. Imso tired of seeing children be the grown up and offer an olive branch to the parent that have traumatized or wronged them.
I just can't forget the fact that MC was ready to k-word himself in HS because he was just that tired of life and believed that he was unwanted. He was abused by his relatives. And was abandonedby everyone he loved and trusted. Thr amount of pain and trauma he has and even now, he still thinks about his mom. His mom who abandoned him and who even married someone else and looked after someone else's kid while her own child was being abused and going through so much paib. Yeah, I'm sorry. You can call me narrow minded or immature but unless the mother actually steps up and asks for forgiveness and holds herself accountable for the pain and trauma she has put MC through, then nothing has changed.
He is such an angel. If this were me I would've just cut off all ties with the mom. But good for MC, I'm happy that this chapter has provided him happiness and closure
