Gurl, i tot most of us ship Hyung with Subin.... like if you read most of comments here from the previous chapters most are on #teamHyung lol
Yes girl ur right.. I'm so happy this ship sailed yay
yeeees, say it louder!!! i really like it, i feel like this should get a slice of life tag just for the fact that some of the feelings of characters are very accurate to real life. And every character is flawed and that's what make them easier to relate to (I like defending subin because I see myself in him the most here). Love doesn't have to always be perfect from the beginning, what matters is the ending. <3
yep. subin is my favorite for that same reason!
I don't think anyone is necessarily AGAINST HyungXSubin, it's more of that we want everyone to be happy and if Subin isn't going to be able to move on from Hyunwoo then we'd rather they get together asap to spare everyone the pain. It LOOKS like Hyung might be endgame, but you have to keep in mind that Subin's relationship has spanned YEARS with Subin actively trying to make things progress to the next step and now even Hyunwoo, Subin's crush for YEARS who he'd been sure was straight is actively trying to progress their relationship too. It looks nice now, but i can't help but think that the way Subin is treating Hyung right now is only due to his fear of rejection and abandonment that he feels towards Hyunwoo, he's looking for a rock, something that won't leave or change in his life because he's too scared to allow things to work with Hyunwoo. Hyung is the easy way out.
Subin's relationship with Hyunwoo*
only hyunwoo isn't really actively pursuing subin, is he? all we get was that realization from him that maybe, yes, he might like subin too (probably romantically, he still isn't sure that's why dongjun gave him the talk) and that he kissed subin (which he denied and wanted to hide from yuna). I get that he sort of backed off since he knows subin had a boyfriend but they broke up right? if he was serious he should've started to 'actively progress the relationship' but he didn't. And that was what sucked for subin because he saw that Hyunwoo wasn't really at all miserable without him (he was being bitter about it when he saw him in that cafe), in contrast, hyung was begging for him to come back desperately. if i was subin (who craved affection for the longest time), the answer on who to choose wouldn't be that hard. What is so wrong with choosing the easy way out? If that path is the one that have a higher chance to make me happy and finally be in a stable relationship, why the hell would anyone still choose to be miserable? Subin is done being a martyr for hyunwoo and its damn good for him.
To be clear, i didn't say that Hyung is the wrong choice, i said that Hyung is the EASY choice and i wasn't making choosing Hyung out to be a bad choice either. Also, why do you assume choosing Hyunwoo would make him unhappy at this point? Hyunwoo is done with all his bullshit, he is owning his mistakes and has told Subin he wants him. He even owned up to the drunken sex night just now, he could've hid that forever. Hyunwoo is ready now to be loving, but Subin is too scared to give it a shot. It's fine with me whomever he ends up with, but if he's still into Hyunwoo he could hurt Hyung. I hear it's a happy HyungXSubin ending though so... As far as Hyunwoo pursuing Subin, that started not long ago with Hyunwoo saying TO Subin that he wants him and talking to a few people about how he won't give up. The instance where he kissed Subin, he wasn't to the point of accepting his feelings for Subin, that just happened recently. That's like saying "oh, well why didn't he date him after the night they had sex if he liked him?", it's because up until recently he had been in denial to the point that he was using Noona to convince himself he is straight.
I see what your saying, but to me it doesn't really seem like Subin has feelings for Hyunwoo at all anymore. The last few times Subin ran across him all he thought was that he was upset Hyunwoo was doing well without him, not that he missed him or still loved him. If Subin was just too scared to give Hyunwoo a shot wouldn't the author have shown us that? To me it seems more like a persons relationship with their ex who hurt them really badly. Sure Subin once had strong feelings for Hyunwoo and maybe Hyunwoo has some feelings for him too but that doesn't mean that Subin will want to be together with him after all of the hurt. Also Subin and Hyunwoo have barely spent any time together since the start of the manga (whereas he's spent all of his time with Hyung cause they lived together) and that before the start of the manga Subin literally hadn't seen or heard from Hyunwoo for two years. Hyunwoo's feelings for Subin are just too little too late. Subin is choosing to be with Hyung because he's the better choice not because he's easier. I think one thing everyone on here can agree with is that Subin would have to be crazy to pick Hyunwoo over Hyung. Subin has moved on already and it seems like Hyunwoo is doing so on his own terms to.
You're right, that's why i'm not saying Subin DOES still love him, i'm saying he might. Their recent interactions can be taken both ways, he could be losing interest or he could be bitching out. You say that him being irritated that Hyunwoo is okay without him doesn't mean he still loves him. I agree. What I'M saying is that it COULD mean he still loves him just as much as it could mean he's getting over him. I don't see one viewpoint as more likely than the other. It seemed out of place when Subin said "what can i do to make you stay with me" to Hyung after JUST having acknowledged that Hyung is hung up on him. It felt like he was talking to Hyunwoo. Also, i don't feel like Hyunwoo is as much of a villain as other people make him out to be, which is why i'd still be okay seeing a HyunwooXSubin pairing. People just look at Hyunwoo's actions without considering the context of those actions. He was a bisexual/gay guy in denial resisting his feelings for the gay man actively pursuing him. Subin got REALLY pushy at times, he got himself drunk and THREW himself at Hyunwoo. Hyunwoo momentarily gave in to his growing feelings and had sex with Subin, but this shook him REALLY hard so he tried to pretend nothing happened. Hyunwoo only acted harshly in the moments where Subin threw caution to the wind and threw himself at Hyunwoo, like when Subin got drunk and kissed him, then got punched. Subin's been hitting the wall of denial with a sledgehammer and then pulled away when it came down.
So many people dislike hyung and subin together, but I'm loving it! I've liked both characters from the start and I think they deserve each other. Their relationship feels more realistic to me than a lot of other shounen ai/ yaoi. So often the MC gets their crush and it's lovely wish fulfillment but not the way most of us end up. In my experience, its the random guy you met on tinder one night and just hit it off with that makes you forget all about that old guy you had a crush on but who never gave you the time of day. I like that neither of them is perfect but that if they choose to respect each others needs and care about each other properly their love will grow. I'm so happy that they have finally gotten to this point. I'm probably going to go reread the whole thing ( T﹏T )/ (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
