    Everytime a villain is handsome people feel sorry for him like he didn't do despicable things

    Gosh.. I think you're missing my point here.. Hear me out, maybe the MC feels regret in the end but still Jacob died without having his feelings reciprocated and even dying with the person he loves in another man's arms as the last thing to see. I am not saying that I take Jacob's side because I know for sure that killing is never a good thing, but for someone who witnessed his mother's death for some bizarre reason and growing in an environment where he feels rejected, you can't really blame him for his personality and behavior. Remember villains aren't born, they were made. I hope I made myself clear for the reason why I AM FEELING BAD for Jacob but be sure that I am not taking his side because I know for sure that our emotions may be valid, but it does not justify our actions.

    As much as I agree with somethings you've said I also disagree with "you can't blame him for his personality and behavior" it was 100% his own doing. He was a victim as a child, but with half a brain he could've done things better. The past can be a heavy shackle but your own determination to break free can have a greater power than the restrictions of the shackle. He had countless choices and he continuously made the wrong ones. His feelings not being reciprocated turned into an obsession to possess Bianca no matter what, he knew exactly what he was doing. As much as I can sympathize with his childhood self that watched his mom die, he chose to sit still and let his urges control him. Of course it was painful, but he made the call to lose control over himself. He viewed everyone as his chess piece and he only held sympathies for himself. As you said there no excuses for what he's done. You have every right to feel whatever towards this character and all else in existence. Objectively from what we've read in the webtoon, he did all that to himself, I felt absolutely nothing when he was in tears and falling to his death. He cried because he knew there was no going back up again, minutes before he was threatening to take Bianca's life alongside his own. So yeah to me he was 100% a narcissistic prick to deserved that ending because he did everything to lead himself to that.

    I appreciate how you took what I have said in consideration and maybe the way I brought out his personality and behavior is rather inaccurate for he really is accountable, however, his surroundings and the people that surrounds him can also be taken into account. Maybe that's the reason why I mentioned how he is not to blame for his personality and behavior. Also, determination to change isn't always easy to muster and just like what I have said before, with no one by his side and feeling rejected in the place he calls home, it is rather impossible to find a reason to be determined. Of course as the villain of the story that is to be expected because the story would turn out the wrong way if he had the ability to change. Also I agree with you that he is wrong in the fact that he let his urges take over him, choosing the wrong choices and monopolizing people because what he did was undoubtedly unjust. Like I said, killing is never right. Not to mention the way how he turned his love into obsession with Bianca as to far that it almost took her and her baby's life is unforgivable. But just like what you have said, we have every right to feel what we want for these characters. Not that I agree and support him, but I merely sympathize with Jacob's character as I overthink possible things like how he might have felt or think in specific situations and if he were to have a different ending. I tend to delve more into every characters' point of view and I find Jacob's more interesting and sad because he is not the typical villain I always encounter. You may felt nothing but I still feel sorry for him in the end. But then again, every evil doer must still face the consequences of what they did, thus him meeting his tragic end and I have no objections as to how he died because he truly deserve it. And I clearly accept and felt relieved with that fact.
