Yes it was inappropriate for Mr. Han, but it was also inappropriate for Hwi. But Hwi was also blackmailing Param, actively disliked him and was having fun with the thought he could ruin his life at any moment if he felt like it because Param was one of "the elites"
But I guess it's ok and loveable for Hwi because ___ ?
Both Param and Hwi disliked each other. Param did treat Hwi like he was beneath him. “You don’t even work HERE.” Which can come off like Hwi is not important enough. Hwi did blackmail him which was wrong but it came from a place of him thinking Param thinks he is above people like him. He then thinks back and admits he was clearly wrong. Hwi has been more honest.
With Mr. Han, he wanted to continue playing with Param. He is now moving forward because Hwi has made his move. With Mr. Han, it comes off as less sincere than Hwi.
Mr. Han: I apologize, I wasn't totally honest, but I want you to forgive me
The Comments: FUCK YOU BITCH OMG I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS STORY
Hwi: Do what I say or I will get you fired from your job and ruin your life. I can be a real asshole. (He literally says "I'm an asshole" )
