do you want raw spoilers? (its related to what you want for haesoo)
Yes plssss thank you
Yes pls!!
Sooo after haesoo breaks up with taku, him and joowon discuss (this is not shown) and basically it seems that Haesoo decided to step back and take time for himself. He goes abroad for 3 years to work on his studies and career. He's not dating Joowon in this time, and Joowon respects his decision to leave, and decides to wait for him instead. They rejoin 3 years later at the airport, and Joowon says "lets go home Haesoo", meaning they'll probably start a relationship now.
I mean to be clear: Haesoo does love Joowon, and Joowon now knows it too... but I agree with you that he was too dependant on his partners. I think he realized that too, and was also aware that he had some emotional issues and insecurities to work out for himself -especially related to his writing and work-,, plus he wanted to be better to Joowon and not fall back into their bad cycles, yknow? So yeah~ This is my interpretation of WHY he decided to go abroad. But I'm sure the writer will actually explain Haesoo's decision in the upcoming final chapters.
Thank you so much for the info and clear explanation!!! <3
AH OML THANK JESUS. Cause this whole time I was thinking that haesoo needs to learn how to be by himself before he can start a healthy relationship with Joowon!
you're welcome to both of you! ^^ i think it was a necessary step for haesoo too
I kind of wish Haesoo had his own personal growth. When Joowon left to be a star after their taboo sexual interactions and Joowon's coercion, he knew that he needed someone to fill the gap but acted tough and independent instead. Taku came along and filled Haesoo's gaping heart for the time being-a distraction-sex, art, and vague signs of love, because Taku didn't want anything complicated and because Haesoo needed some new air to breathe. The concept of taboo relations was flimsy after their parents divorced, but Joowon was still occupied with his job and it's pressure (being gay is dangerous stuff in the entertainment industry). Joowon and Taku find out about each other and feel jealousy even though they know their own circumstances. Joowon is at risk of losing his job if he is official with Haesoo, and Taku is at risk of losing his heart because Haesoo is the only person he truly longed for. Joowon developed slowly over time and Taku found out his love with a confession through an exponential wave of realization. My heart aches for both men, but Haesoo feels like he is too dependent, that he needs a person there for him, and fear of loneliness, which is normal and understandable but I wish he learned to handle his feelings and cope in a real way instead of putting on a front. Haesoo's has so much potential.
