MC not risking his noods spreading across the internet because he reported him. Who knows, if pretty boy has the balls to do this crime-like behavior, he probably has relatives in the judiciary that can cover him and let him off with a slap on the hand (take it with a grain of salt, as this is just fictional Korea).
No, if the ml had such relatives in the judiciary he would've gotten the MC and his accomplices punished when these were bullying and gangraping ml in highshool. But the fact that his family is wealthy but didn't take advantages of this chance to get the rapists prosecuted is a greater plothole. This story is a nonsensical mess.
(Spoilers)
Jooyeon was estranged from his wealthy father, but after the mess with Jiwook in school 8 years ago they re-established contact with him. Unfortunately this was after Jiwook went to court for raping Jooyeon, which he was only given community service for. Poor guy wasn’t able to use his chaebol powers to have the book thrown at him because he didn’t have ‘em yet. He’s been receiving financial support from his father, but not to seek legal justice…he’s just sending the money to the gangster he’s colluding with for revenge. It would’ve been a lot smarter if one of them had just said “fuck it” and gotten the authorities involved either in the past or in the present, but then the story would be much shorter LMFAO
Just go to a police station bro
