I like how you almost wrote this like a poem, lmao
I hate the way im so emotional over this manhwa, but i am lmao
Send help i guesssss
I do understand the frustration though
Yeah ~_~
The chapter literally says tj manipulated Ian into thinking he saved him (which is why Ian feels indebt to him) when he was really there to kill Jang, tj didn't know ian was there and then he didn't get rid of the scar because he wanted to have it as a reminder for Ian to remember. Similar to how tj hotel/apartment room is right across the room Ian was close to be assassinated. Tj even hints there are many things Ian doesn't know, just because Ian knew a few doesn't mean he's more to blame.
But Ian wasnt manipulated. He stayed cause he loved him.
He knew about TJ’s “plans” to keep him with him. How hard he tried. The “accident” too.
Were his feelings so weak, he was manipulated to stay cause TJ has a scar?
Those were TJ fears, he didnt believe Ian would stay with him.
But Ian clearly knew?????
He just doesnt seem as someone who would stay cause of guilt.
Cause where did that guilt go?
No, TJ thinks he was manipulating Ian. Ian was aware. That’s the reason they had their big fight half way through season 1 and why they didn’t talk up until TJ had his accident at the end of season 1. He realized that Ian knew everything but pretended not to and they just hurled hurtful things at each other after that. TJ did it because he believed it was the only way he could hold on to Ian, yes, but also because he genuinely believed he couldn’t thrive without Ian in his life. He understood that that wasn’t the case after Ian went to jail… One thing I’m questioning is why you’re bringing up the guy who tried to kill Ian as a parallel to anything? From the way the story has unfolded, it’s clear it’s it was orchestrated by that guy who’s always hated them and has been conspiring to use Ian so he can get TJ out of hiding (forgot his name).
Some act like Ian is the innocent victim and dismiss he also made many mistakes, some act like TJ is the only villain and god forbid u like him, the idiots here will come for you, some act like Jo is a bad guy and act like he manipulated Ian to date
How about no?
How about apply the same logic to each character?
It would make this place much better
How was Ian manipulated when he knew what TJ did ?
He knew and he stayed.
He stayed cause he had guilt?
Like its possible he will fuxk TJ the second he shows before him lmaoooo
