Well that was wild. I’m kind glad they are taking the psychotic thing seriously and not just ”whoops he was a bit crazy/obsessed” and that we got to see things from his perspective too and understand where he was coming from. At the beginning I don’t think their relationship was toxic, maybe not completely healthy either though. There was mutual feelings of liking and Jiwhan did act out of his understanding of the love he was shown and what he is capable of feeling. He wanted to do better than this father wanted to be relied on and provide everything you could wish for, sadly he did isolate and seclude Sooyoung like his father did to his mother. I don’t believe it could’ve been solved with communication, but I think if they had been able to communicate more openly (about Jiwhans intension and obsession and how it had the opposite effect) maybe there could’ve been a deeper level of understanding. The part where Sooyoung broke it off was absolutely necessary but as they never saw eye to eye it became more of a “you’re totally crazy and I don’t understand why you can’t understand I hate you and not want to be with you every again” and thinking their whole relationship was an act/a lie was quite harsh and it did end with Jiwhan threatening to k himself so I’m not sure how their relationship will develop in the future. Sooyoung has no bit of like left for him and he’s traumatized and scared of him. I feel that if Jiwhan changes to a completely different person saying he regrets everything and wants to support him from afar or even be taken back it, the whole psychopath thing will be reduced to nothing which would be a waste since it has potential to be actually good showcaseing. The same if he just turn into some “crazy stalker”. I like the characters and that they’re not bound to each other just because they’re the main couple (like when Sooyoung actually stood up for himself and didn’t give in because he felt guilty which happens in most stories after the other person has done something that’s gone to far). I do think they’ll end up together in the end so I hope they can learn how to be good for each other. I just feel bad for both of them tbh.
