Even in the world of Asian comics parental rights exist. She couldn't leave the kid with strangers, if she didn't want to have problems with the police. also, it's important to remember, that parental laws in Asia are different to the west. The kids are still pretty much the property of the father. Unless the father leaves the family, the kids stay with him. The mother can leave, but she can't take the kids without the husband allowing it. And according to the story - the mother fled the house and husband and went into hiding for some time, it was not a consensual break up. Another point to consider - single mothers are still frowned upon in Asia. Her chances of getting a roof over her head, a job or a relationship are significantly worse with a kid.
His father can go to hell for all I care but his mother tho, she made her decision and that resulted in a KID that never asked to be born to suffer.Two things can be true at once, although I feel bad for what happened to her, I also think hyesung's decision to not have a relationship with her was the best for him. Dojin should've let her face her karma instead of helping her but that mf will ofc do things his way and shove sh*t to hyesung's face, in which hyesung will eventually accept.
I'm asian and my mom took me and my siblings w'out my father knowing in the middle of the night, bcs he is a dips*it, he didn't give a fck lmao. Only came crawling bcs he was afraid he'd die alone. He decision was to TAKE US WITH HER. Hyesung's mother knew how abusive his father was but still decided to run away on her own, leading to the abuse to be directed to him. Why should he forgive her.
In most asian countries,second families of a woman do not want to raise a child of a woman from her first marriage. They see it as a burden. Also Hyesung's mother was young and uneducated and unemployed. Even if she took Hyesung there was no way she could raise him properly. Think it through.Also this is Korea where they grown upon women even for the smallest thing where rape victims are very scared to speak up.
Exactly. I don't say Hyesung has to forgive her. He is the one person who is allowed to not even try to understand her, if he wants. It's his mother and it's his childhood that's been ruined. But I expect a different judgement from readers and commenters. They didn't have to go through Hyesungs childhood and can judge more objectively. So I'd expect more understanding for an person, who got a kid at a very young age, had to marry the man who knocked her up, had to endure years of Abu se and tr affi king, had no education, idk even about finishing school and, let's be frank, not very bright. Also living in a society, where she was considered to be a person of second class. She behaved like most people actually do in her situation in real life.
I actually did go through the same childhood as him lmao. I personally don't deny that her circumstances should be understood and symphatize with more but then again, that does not make what hyesung experienced any less valid, for all his reactions and actions bcs of it. Some people just symphatize with that, the same way you say ppl should judge objectively on the mother's issue, they are also probably doing the same thing about hyesung, hence why they say the things they did about her.
There's a difference between sympathizing with someone and bashing someone. No objections to sympathizing with Hyesung or saying how he didn't deserve such a childhood. But some comments are all just about full on hating on the mother.
Btw, same as people hated on Hyesung for leaving Byul. With no ifs or buts, just hate and bad with no redemption.
Exactly. It's fiction. So everything in the story is for a reason, not more, not less. While I'm sorry people get triggered with the story and sorry they had unpleasant experiences, my experience says, that a lot of people just like to hate on someone. There's nothing personal, just the feeling of having the moral higher ground and "punishing the bad guy".
HELP! The hate train of Hyesung's mother is wild
My girl was ABUSED and forced to sell her body to other men by her OWN husband.
The misogyny is killing me...
She never even asked for money or anything when she tried to meet hyesung but Dojin offered it by himself. If you guys want someone to blame,blame his dad. That guy is a monster.
She left because she wanted to live for herself??? Would you guys not???
