Keep on mine that not to long before that this guy boldly proclaimed that he was on a date with Jaerin and he never denied it. It was also dark and there was a great amount of distance between them. Also people can cry from pleasure. That, unlike most yaoi, was a somewhat understandable conclusion yuri draw especially with the letter that was written. If you really want to be mad at something be mad at Jaerin for not helping yuri solve any of his problems in a reasonable and logical manner. Be mad at everyone for blaming yuri for their problems. Like foreal! How was he suppose to know they were getting bullied and right did any of them have to blame him for. Nobody seems to realize this though!
but... literally... i was just thinking, LITERALLY, the night before yuri and the ugly dude had a heart-to-heart talk. like a for real "we're in this for the long run i love you you love me" talk. and then this is all it took for Yuri to be like "screw that! imma just make some quick conclusions about this compromising situation and not trust him!"
not saying ugly dude (jaerim?) isn't at fault. dude's a dumb fuck (i mean...) who really can't read a situation. he's also real selfish. but what i'm talking about only pertains to the scenario mentioned, not all the other messy stuff.
Why in the hell would the author even introduce this, and use it as a plot device if it was going to be so logic-ridden and brushed aside so easily. There's no closure either. They don't talk about how Yuri almost left Jaerim at the scene and how the blue-haired guy basically sexually assaulted Jaerim, and would have gone further if the girl told him to. I'm 100% sure that he would've done so if the girl told him to.
And it's only after that that the blue haired guy finally breaks up with her. It took her telling him to go sexually assault and nearly ruin the life of a guy, and him actually going through with it, i.e. assaulting the guy, with no remorse at the time of, to finally break it off with her. Because THAT is what it takes. Why not just stick with that shitty bitch till the end? Since you've already gone ahead and assaulted a guy anyways? What are you trying to salvage? What little is left of your conscience? Fuck off. If you're willing to assault a guy, it's not as though you had any in the first place. Go ahead and pretend to, though.
Anyways, as what was said, there is a complete absence of closure. Just a "yeah we don't talk about how Yuri basically almost left me to be assaulted because he still thought I was not loyal to him and he only came back bc someone else told him to haha lol we're going to pretend it didn't happen because that's healthy (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ just a bit of your puppy dog face and all is okieee" and "oh yah you sexually assaulted me and basically nearly ruined my life? no biggie ლ(´ڡ`ლ)". That, and then some "deep" monologue at the end because somehow that makes it all peachy.
I mean, Yuri went back for him in the end, but that was only, and solely due to the fact that other guy told him how utterly moronic his actions were. Because even after the whole "oh Jaerim would never cheat on me, I believe in him" inner monologue/flashback he had, all it took was seeing Jaerim in a compromising situation for Yuri to throw all that supposed "trust" and self-victimize with a "how could you do this to me?" or some other similar shit he said. Because no, only his opinion matters. Not the fact that Jaerim was obviously crying, that he was scared and fearful and did not want to be in the situation, his clothes strewn and messy, the pleading look on his face, all depicted by the author btw. Because no, none of that fucking mattered. Only Yuri's own feelings mattered.
Man... what the fuck? Are y'all romanticizing this shit or something?
Your argument is probably "At least he went back, right?". But think about this. What if that other guy wasn't there to convince Yuri to go back? Would Yuri really have done that on his own? I think the fuck not.
This whole shtick would've ended fine with the confession + fluff by the seaside in the preceding chapter, where they talked out their problems, but no. The author had to add on a hole-ridden chapter completely devoid of basic logic for no good reason at all. All to "develop the relationship", which in reality would definitely not have worked out so rosy rosy happily ever after! I'd fucking dump the ass of the guy I'm dating if he pulled the shit Yuri did.
