I'm just wondering

That's a fucking revolting response. You are a complete hypocrite as you are justifying murder now. The death penalty is inhumane, and is not practised in South Korea.

There are also mental asylums.
And then what?
What iyo would happen then?
Heal him and let him go, not caring about the people he killed, abused or raped?

I don't care.

It's still a thing there, look it up.

Keep showing your ignorance over the justice system and mental health babe. And yes, that's the purpose of secure hospitals, that they can house violent patients who might be like Bum, you know stabbing someone 12 times because they got triggered that she was their teenage friend.

You are a fucking hypocrite then who just spams the comments hating on a character rather than contributing anything objective or constructive.

Or you know, being the captive of a Serial Killer who abuses and tortures you.

Yes, you're right. You really know about these things, hope it's because of your studies bit well not my business, just a wish for you

K.

This is just how the criminal justice system works in relation to those who are mentally unwell. In my own country, we do have high profile cases of serial killers who are mentally unwell, and they are detained in a high security hospital. Ditto people who are mentally unwell but have been violent to themselves or others. This is just how things are, and it's the most common sense approach to tackling violence triggered by mental illlness as seen with Bum and Sangwoo.

Its usless to have discussion with that person. She/he doesnt/doesnt want to understand elementary physiology and psychology.

Sorryy it was about @yeet not @Lily

I guessed so. I agree, this poster is quite exhausting to try and engage a conversation with as they basically want others to validate their wrong interpretation of the plot! Also, they seem to be using a lot of stigmatising language towards mental illness and have such a poor understanding of criminal justice and mental health care. It's odd, as the whole point of the story is a a documentation of the relationship of two mentally unwell men, their backgrounds their perceptions, the actual reality and their crimes. Yeets just wants to paint Bum as an angel, and Sangwoo as a devil which is ridiculous and an insult to the author, as they have given us a far more complex and compelling plot.

I never said or did that.
Both are mentally unwell men, both need help.
I just don't think Sangwoo deserves it.
You talk like he saw his mom in the older man, you talk like he was forced to torture and rape.
But that's fine, I dun care.

Actually, it's the same thing.

It's not the current terminology, also "mental asylum" is associated with stigma.

But a lot of mentally ill people don't go around killing and harming others,, so what u r saying if I confuse reality with fiction it's ok to kill! Wtf I don't think he is mentally ill but now he is starting to become one after regretting what he did ,, I hope he burn in hell I don't pity him .. he has a black heart ain't able to move on, forgive or appreciate the good things in life .. the victims didn't cause his suffering and even if they did he isn't the one to punish them and take their lives away

"he's a psychopath. How can you not pity him? Some are saying "you choose your path in life" but what a psychopath can even choose?"

Maybe you confused sociopath and psychopath? Because believe me, murdering many many people doesn't always mean they're psychopath. Psychopath is someone who had zero empathy. They're born with it, not created. When you said you study it, I'm confused why you said that he had no choice. Psychopath always choose their victim not on impulse. If they dicided to kill someone it's not because they don't have any choice, but simply because they can and they enjoyed it.

Didn't even finish read your message, I'm sorry dear but where are you even get the "it's alright to kill" part? Or the "everybody with -every kind of- mental issues" kill? This is why I don't like talking with people who doesn't listen or are just in their conviction..so much that even if the other party doesn't say that thing they think did. Or just assume things, saying that's like saying ... Also..no offense seriously but if you want to talk about mental disease or what a people with mental disease do please open a book about that.

Sorry! I think you're right , got the wrong word....I think in english you call that psychosis ..
But anyway, a psychopath is borned with it so what kind of choose does he really have? When you don't have empathy you can't understand how a person feels, the pain you just caused.
Anyway, Sangwoo mental disease is a bit complicated, not sure I can out only one label to that yet...well labels are just a way to simplified mental disease anyway, in life the line is also blurryblurry

Not always born,the demaged can also developed in early childhood if we want to be very specific. But yeah its the brain failure.
And I dont really get your logic. If we assumed that Sangwoo is indeed psychopath then yeah because of the fact that he feels no empathy he cant be evaluated/consider in the terms of normal healthy person. They enjoyed IT because they are ill.
Although I dont think that Sangwoo is psychopath. But its obvious that he is rather mentaly unstable.
