*panel of jiwon recalling DG sitting alone where jaejin was first introduced*
"I think deep down he feels really lonely"

*back to current time Jiwon still looking at DG pensively*

Jiwon thinking: 'So...I wasn't the only one who thought that after all'

-------TBC-------
I'm guessing DG got bullied and the bully (sungwoong) either forgot or was being an inconsiderate ass and didn't think much of his actions but DG did (considering he was being mad friendly at the restaurant). Either way DG was hurt. This is probably why he keeps distance. Looks like the beginning of DG's backstory.

Okay now back to studying medicine. aaahhhhhh so much work due soon. lol
