I just realized but technically everything yuri did could be considered as playing the game. Yuri technically doesn’t owe anything to sanghee, as they’re just strangers to each other. The whole point of the show is “couple breaker” aka to put the relationship to the test and basically do problematic things for the drama and so the show is entertaining for viewers. Remember that they get tons of points for physical contact with OTHER people. In a way, yuri is doing similar things to taerin. Except we all know taerin is doing things for revenge. Yuri may be doing it for the money/fame. Both yuri and taerin have done physical contact with other men to win points and have “pretended” to flirt with the dudes.
Sanghee should really only be mad at her supposed fiancé. The fiancé is in the wrong because he lies to her and actually is cheating, and not doing it for the points.
Ok let's go back
Chapter 15-16 all the other characters before they met for the show except for the main characters don't know each other. They were told to take a"your ideal type test" EACH individual
Yuri and glasses boy match!
The pot is already stirring
They both are each other's type EQUAL
Responsibility point +1
After thattt Yuri was already playing the game
Which is understandable
She was flirting with glasses boy
He was already her type
Now follow me to chapter 29 they are playing the truth game.
Where they either drink or tell the truth
Yuri character is bold and blunt
She mentions she likes someone other than her boyfriend
Chapter 34!
Now it's the wedding episode Yuri boyfriend shows her an over sexualized wedding dress
She laughs it off.
Looks over to sanghee and glasses boy
Picking seriously
Things
"They really are getting married one day..."
Before that glasses boy isn't paying attention to sanghee when she ask about"that day" he seems distant but still gives her an answer
Yuri is looking like (this man is offering commitment not just a physical commitment like her boyfriend)
Glasses boy like (this Girl is offering excitement way better than my fiancee something new something wild)
Yuri and glasses boy are eyeballing EACH other!! +1
Especially when glasses boy look at Yuri in the wedding dress!!!
Certain parts of the game there were no challenges just interaction
THE GAME IS A CHOICE YOU CHOOSE WHO YOU TARGET
Late chapters now glasses boy is already OBSESSED with Yuri (she was already planning to steal him which he was already wanting her so it's not a steal)
And when they were in private
Glasses boy while cuddling Yuri he says "I convinced her (sanghee) to come back to the show just to see Yuri
Yuri than realizes if I get into a serious relationship with this man
I will get cheated on too his heart is too fickle
SHE STARTS TO AVOID GLASSES BOY
there is all your evidence
Yeah I don’t agree with that lol. There was not enough to prove yuri liked him. Even if she had a crush on him, it was very obvious that she didn’t like him as much and only out of curiosity. I think you take things too seriously. If you didn’t see taerin’s POV, you probably would’ve thought she was still in love with the cheater ex bf lmao. Both yuri and taerin have a similar playful personality.
There is no “both equally responsible.” Yuri owes sanghee nothing. I feel bad for sanghee too, but yuri is just a stranger to her. They are not friends. If they all weren’t on a show, then yuri doing all that would be bad for real. But because the point of the show is to test couples and literally be affectionate and touch other ppl, yuri is playing the game. If we’re being real, no SANE couple would join that show. Sanghee chose to STAY on the show despite disliking what the show requires them to do. Sanghee has some responsibility for even staying with him and going back to the show even after she got advice from taerin. If you even think about it for a second, for all we know- yuri could’ve saved sanghee from staying in a marriage with a guy who was bound to cheat.
Anyways like you said, the game is a choice and you choose who you target. You can’t be mad at them choosing to play the damn game lmao. If they weren’t gonna play, then why are they on the show in the first place? If they’re not gonna play, then they should leave the show.
Anyways I still don’t think you understand yuri’s character at all. Her own bf (the red head) knows exactly how she is. Her and her bf are similar in that they’re playful and flirty. They don’t take anything seriously.
It's about playing the game but self respect is definitely still important.
Even at some points Yuri boyfriend was shocked on how eager she was. Especially when she kept targeting glasses boy when she had a chance for a challenge.
And of course her boyfriend isn't going to get mad he said it himself it takes a lot to get him mad .
They DONT take their relationship serious
Which is fine with Yuri but she still has a desire for cominentmemt and to settle down.
That shows in the wedding chapter
When she's jealous of sanghee
When she says
"Their really planning to get married one day...."
If you weren't jealous than why say it like it was a longing AFTER her boyfriend picked a perverted wedding dress she laughed it off she wants cominentmemt (marriage,etc, serious relationship)
She only came to terms with glasses boy being truly a cheater when they were cuddling
And he said what he said
I'm not mad at them playing the game
That's not my point my point is
They were serious about each other glasses and Yuri
It's no more playing the game
My point is the GAME turned serious!
Everyone has their opinion though if you love Yuri that's fine
Guy with the glasses and Yuri are both getting on my nerves!!!
Just because she stopped chasing after the guy with the glasses because it got boring doesn't make her any better
They both equally responsible for hurting sanghee!!
SANGHEE SUE BOTH OF THEM FOR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS
