Tbh if u met the Minho from the original story… he was a huge cunt. So I was on the “hah he deserved wat happened to him in True Beauty” team. Granted I started feeling bad for him halfway through the side story.
No, I read all of the original too. I really don't even think he was that bad he was just really mean to the mc girl and she wasn't the best person so I didn't really care. Stilll even if he was a really big asshole he DID NOT deserve what happened to him. The story kinda reminded me Theon Greyjoy and about how he was kinda a dick and then was tortured and abused for the rest of the story. Their story's are basically the same and I think its crazy that people think they deserved it ?
I mean realistically speaking hardly no one deserves what happened to him in the side story.
But he wasn’t just mean??
The girl was an angel to him back then. He was the biggest douche ever, plagiarized/ entirely stole her work, destroyed her self esteem, and continued to taunt her. He was also just arrogant and lacked empathy by nature. He was absolutely the second most despicable person after his kidnapper/ abuser. And ofc the woman herself is bad enough, just no where near their lvl.
I think everyone in that story sucked and by your logic they should've all been r*ped and abused then... I mean I doesn't really matter the story has already been made and completely but I find it odd your response to what I said to reading this story is that it was justified to do his actions. Minhwo wasn't even abused by the girl he wronged he was abused by so rando dude for no reason and the man had no reason or logic for doing it.

This is a first for me. I actually cried real tries after finishing this.... this is so tragic and awful and devastating for both characters. clearly the author has some crazy disliking for Minhwo... it's insane. I feel like this story was only made to torture the guy.
