what if your mom left you when you are younger without hesitation or guilty for years? not even asking or contacting you at all even though she is your mom? stup*d

plus there was a scene where woo jung was crying while looking at his mom's picture. he was still a boy who didn't get enough love from HIS OWN MOTHER yet he still misses his mother.

even if it was his father's fault, then it means woo jung is should be abandon too? she as a mother shouldn't take ANY side after all. SHE SHOULD BE THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO LISTEN TO BOTH OF THEM AND TRYING TO CONVINCE THEM TO ACCEPT EACH OTHER.

His mother clearly loves him a lot, feels very guilty about the situation (I don´t think SHE should feel guilty) and wants to have contact again, it is entirely possible that she tried contacting him before and was rejected, that is why she resorts to asking Jinwoo for help.
And I really don´t get the logic of you all, because she is his mother she should have stayed and let her other son suffer alone (possibly homeless, probably leading to his suicide)??? It was not Woojung who needed her the most, but Sarang. Woojung had and has his father (that Sarang has no contact with his father never seems to enter the conversation, hmmm), who seems very nice to him and who takes care of him. His mother said it clearly why she didn´t take Woojung with her when she left, because she wanted to stop Sarang and Woojung from "hurting each other", meaning Woojung was tormenting Sarang for being gay and I cannot fault her at all for wanting to protect Sarang from that.

lol I don't agree that you should blame Woojung for everything and that he should be the only one to apologize. Yes the mum clearly loves him a lot but to abandon him as a kid and take his younger brother? From Woojung's perspective he would've felt abandoned and felt like his mother loved his brother more than him. That's not an easy thing to get over...The mother should have tried her best to keep in contact with Woojung when she left no matter what. Either way, both the mother and father should have tried to understand Sarang's situation (and help Woojung understand too) like the father had said he'd regretted. Woojung should apologize for how he's treated Sarang but the mother needs to gain back Woojung's trust and show him that she still loves him. not just apologise. I think the others don't mean the mother should have stayed and allowed things to stay as they are but that they should have tried to work through it. I mean at some point after she left maybe she should have tried to reconcile the family...

I think both opinions on this topic are right.
What I‘m trying to say is, that nothing would be the right way in a situation like this.
But I think the mother sufferd the most. You have to try to underdtand her, it is soo difficult to please three persons with different opinions at the same time! Thats not an easy task especially if its about family. And she thought that sarang needed the most support from her (I don‘t say thats the right way, but that was the way she just felt back then).

its not about staying there and harm Sarang more like why she dont took him aswell. its wrong cz u must raise a kid properly and not give up 2 quickly, even if it takes years u have to try and make him as a better person

yes he is but i just dont get why ppl are like Woojung must say sry cz he is not the one. if your son did something wrong u just talk and talk till hes not gonna stop doin it, but here they just leave him with anger and dats sucks

Of course working through it as a family and not splitting up would have been the best case scenario. But the best case scenario is not always possible. The father and Woojung have both been shown to be physically and verbally abusive towards Sarang. For the mother staying and trying "to works things out", would have resulted in Sarang getting more and more of this abuse, and it is very questionable that Woojung and his father would have come to accept Sarang at this point (over the years at least the father seems to have become more tolerate). The decision of the mother to leave hurt Woojung, there is no question, but it was the best decision she could make in a very difficult situation, a situation which was not her fault but her husbands. It is incredible unfair of Woojung to blame his mother and Sarang for it and he clearly shuts her out, when she tries to reach out to him. What do you want her to do? Grovel at his feet? Call him 24/7? I do not like this sentiment that it is only the mothers obligation to hold the family together, especially when, like here, the break was caused by the intolerance of the father towards one of his sons. Why does she has to do all the emotional work?
It is clear now that Woojung was the reason why he and his mother had no contact. Sarang and his mother did nothing wrong, Woojung should be the one to apologize.
