Iseon is still a flawed guy because of the way he went about things. Nothing wrong with viewing love as more comforting than fluttery. It’s just that, he lacks consideration for Yumin. He wants her to understand where he’s coming from, his idea of love, but didn’t even apologize or realize how his behavior could’ve hurt her. Hence, he asked “did I ever hurt you?” Like hello? You even said how she might’ve noticed that he dated her out of pity. Let’s not forget that. ML’s ex is outwardly selfish, and FL’s ex is inwardly.
It’s not like I want them to get back together but I get what Iseon is talking about like as a society we have this warped image that love is all about butterflies and fluttering (which is considered infatuation/crushing) or whatever but actual love should actually be more of a warm and comforting feeling if you’re considering them for the long run
HOWEVER yeah this wasn’t communicated and sometimes being late is just that; too late and now FL has already moved on… it’s just kinda bittersweet and it’s hard not to feel something for his character given he’s not inherently a bad guy unlike ML’s ex who was just a terrible person
