Y'all

And Jiho actually DID apologize after Inwoo ran out of the cafe after the surprise meeting with him mom Jiho set up. That's the whole reason he went after him in the last chapter when he stormed off! Inwoo himself wasn't honest at all, and you blame Jiho for it all like he was supposed to magically know??

Jiho said "let's go back and talk it out", Inwoo could've simply said "no, I do not want to do that. Let's just go home." But instead did something Jiho didn't like out of spite and his anger in the moment! Y'all's comments are unbelievable

They're both mentally unstable and obviously their relationship lacks communication. I get why people are mad at jiho since he spent the night at his ex-fwb but both Chung and Jiho already broke that off and now they're just nothing but friends and Jiho wants nothing to do with him.

Also 1st page of the chapter(67) "Nobody's perfect" that's why it's alright to have obstacles that u and ur partner will face throughout your relationship and overcoming those problems together is what makes the relationship with your partner more stronger. It's just really funny how some people think that being in a relationship is all sunshine and rainbows

Excuse me. In which magical panel did Jiho actually apologize? Cause he sure didn't. He only chssed after Inwoo, and the first thing he said was to go back and that the mom has her reasons---he's pushing Inwoo to go back instead of checking how he feels.
And don't put this one on Inwoo. Regardless of whether your significant other does or doesn't want to see someone, you absolutely DON'T surprise set them up without their knowledge. You don't know how miserable it is to see someone who hurt you, especially unprepared. It's horribly painful even if you express that you did.

When Jiho tried to get with Inwoo, he knew that Inwoo has a lot of trauma and mental baggage. Being with someone like that isn't easy and takes a lot of empathy and sensitivity, which Jiho lacks. They're honestly just not good for each other.

That was the whole point of my second comment on my own topic, I should've made that clear. There's no excuse for either of them to be acting the way they do. Oh no, it's another unstable bl couple who's got baggage and unstable mental health. You can be rightfully upset about Jiho, do you boo. But you also have to acknowledge the others faults as well, which is something no one is doing

Well said, spot on.

Also being tempted jokingly out of spite or anger is one thing, but the fact that it's JIHO who said this line gives it a lot of weight and a bitter flavour.

After all this is the same person who slept with Chungi while falling in love with and actively trying to pursue and agonize over Inwoo. And the editor saying if Chung had decided to be a villain, he might've actually suceeded in driving a wedge between them is pretty damn hard to swallow.

The two of them found physical comfort in each other gives the situation a different subtext. He might not have done it, but his tempted represents one portion of his desires. What else is this other than saying that Jiho can be easy when cornered.

Yep.

As anyone could be easily cornered when hit with conflict and affecting their feelings, I'm not saying Jiho is a saint and is right in his actions, but I'm also accounting Inwood action as well and it seems like y'all have a problem with that, being the majority of the comments only talking about Jiho and how terrible and unfit he is. They both need to talk, they need a seeeerious talk. Inwoo never flat out said to Jiho that he never wanted to see his mother and said instead that he missed the opportunity to meet her. If that were true and he didn't lie, in my mind Jiho would have done the right thing. But that wasn't the case and now he knows to not bring up the mother. Up to this point, in my opinion, Jiho hasn't done wrong until now. They both need to work on their trust and mental health together

And I didn't say Jiho was tempted out of spite, I said Inwoo deliberately showed PDA with him in public out of spite and anger when Jiho was clear about how he felt about it. My opinion, Jiho has been really good on expressing what he does and doesn't like with Inwood, but Inwoo hasn't

Ain't no one said Inwoo did no wrong, but the weight and impact is obviously different.
Inwoo's outlash is expected given the way things were progressing.
Jiho's actions were SURPRISING. Up to date he has been been wishy washy and making really questionable decisions. People are infuriated by it, that's not difficult to comprehend. We're not putting Inwoo on a pedestal, we're are just more appalled by Jiho (at least some of us). It's two different issues altogether.

I stand by what I said that Jiho should've checked with Inwoo first instead of making that decision for him. His heart was in the right place but he didn't do the right thing. And of you truly think this, then you haven't been in the shoes of someone like Inwoo.
When he chased after Inwoo, the first thing he should've said is "are you alright? do you want to continue or stop here and try again another day", and not "go back, your mom must have her reasons". In that moment you aren't looking out for your partner who is clearly panicking and mortified. It comes off as Jiho being on his mother's side, from Inwoo's perspective, which is why Inwoo go further upset.

Beautifully said. You must have studied psychology or just good common sense on seeing both sides of a situation.

Neither of us are wrong, we both make good points. No, I haven't been in a position like Inwoo. I haven't been in a position in either of their spots. I'm just reading the story and coming with my conclusions on things. I'm AroAce, so I haven't been in either relations, but I pay attention to story. Jiho did wrong and didn't communicate, Inwoo does wrong and doesn't communicate, HEAVY on that part for him. I agree with you, Jiho should've check on him instead of insisting on going back, I'm not saying he was right, he had good intentions. That doesn't justify Inwoo getting upset and doing something Jiho also doesn't like either. They're both wrong, do I have to keep saying it till someone understands what I'm saying?

It's not that I don't understand you. You just want to communicate that they both got issues and neither are fully in the right. Like I get youre just trying to back up Jiho here because it seems one sided.

What I found eyerolling was you calling everyone immature just because majority are all hating on Jiho. Which I feel people are absolutely valid for. It has nothing to do with Inwoo being right or wrong, one can still independently hate on Jiho for HIS crazy ass decisions.

That's all it comes down to. People were shocked and upset by it, and are simply just more vocal about it. (Because I swear I could never even for a second personally think of cheating on my partner no matter how upset I am.)

I understand. We all see things differently that's what makes for a good debate, and you gave us that, so thank you.

Thank you. --- Yes, actually, it was my major. But in this scenario, it was anecdotal experience.

I knew a guy who was estranged from their ex for several years and she was trying to meet up with him again to patch things up. He wasn't sure whether he did or didn't want to meet her, and if he did, he wasn't sure he was prepared. But his long time friends went ahead and listened to her and secretly set him up with a meeting at a bar, hoping to repair their relationship.

The entire time she basically gaslit him for everything (even though she was the one who physically and mentally abused him). And when he tried to leave, his friends tried to convince him to go back and talk it out. Not even hearing his side of the story or consoling him, or trying to calm him down. They knew him for so long but ignored all his discomfort, expressions and body language.

He ended up calling me (his new acquainance) drunk, crying and vomiting, feeling really betrayed.

Needless to say, it wasn't a very pleasant story.
( Also his ex really was an unapologetic psychopath.)

I shouldn't have said people were being immature, I acknowledge that and rereading what I was saying, the "immature" part was not necessary to say

Indeed. My sister died (murdered) by the hands of her ex-partner all thanks to her friend setting up a blind date with him. The friend said afterwards she thought he had changed and wanted them to get back together, as she thought that's what my sister truly wanted. I swear l could write a book on the whole scenario. People said she was a good friend who thought she was doing the right thing, and that she meant well??

I'm sorry to hear someone you knew went through all that, those "friends" are inexcusable

I also apologize for the loss of your sister. That "friend" should be held accountable. If people broke up, they did it for a reason. People are cruel, I hope that guy got lots of prison time
