I agree completely. Let's also not forget that Taeseok basically forced his way into his life in the first place.. Dojun wasn't looking for a relationship because he knew he wasn't ready.
^^^^ wholly agree with both of you.
I see many people upset with Dojun's personality but that is who he really is from the beginning itself. He set up things before even giving taeseok a chance and said how he thinks of himself and asked whether he will still be fine to which taeseok agreed. I heard something about trauma somewhere stating "if you mix piss in water and add sugar on top of it that doesn't mean that you got rid of the piss which is already present." I also think that whatever trauma Dojun suffered through can't be solved with just love magically. Taeseok is a writer not a therapist. Also, people who are here comparing these two leads trauma and deciding that taeseok also suffered so why is Dojun's the only one who is portrayed in a frustrating way. Do you think giving an ultimatum to which trauma is greater is the way to go? It's just sad that no one sees the struggle and growth of Dojun and all that is overshadowed by his personality. If you have an ingrained character and personality that you have developed years and years into it, do you think you can change it completely within a short period of time? As a reader you have every right to complain when you get frustrated but it is also a cue to really contemplate.
