all those examples i used were actually compiled in gardenfairy's post so no credit to me lol: http://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/9517513/
i just kept thinking about this post and i realized what all the examples had in common: it was that taku just liked to feed off of haesoo's sadness. it just pissed me off eye
Honestly I've always been team Haesoo's happiness, even if it meant Haesoo being single without Joowon. But does it ever strike you just how much Taku is anti-haesoo's happiness. Like this man wants Haesoo to be miserable so bad? And for what???
He has a whole monologue where he's like "I saw you were sad, and it felt good." and it's about how he likes when Haesoo has to depend on him for comfort, so haesoo's misery makes himself feel good and depended on. blehhh.
Then theres the "it must be painful for him no doubt, but I just wanted to see more" after he makes haesoo recall "never being able to see the person he loves again" RIGHT AFTER HIS BREAKUP WITH JOOWON. all for a photoshoot. The photos made Haesoo cry at the exhibition! And you say you wanted to see more??
Or when he says "if i cant beat Joowon one on one, at least I want you to feel bad". Like bitch?? So Haesoo is some sort of competition to you, and you want him upset even tho you wanted this relationship knowing he's in love with Joowon for 10 years?
Or "I hoped that guilt would bring you to me" when he talks about his plan with using his sex tape to guilt trip haesoo into a relationship. He's just listing down every negative emotion in the book for haesoo to feel for him at this point.
And now in the raws: "I hope youre unhappy, and regret breaking up with me". THIS MF?!? you literally just said haesoo tried his best in this relationship and you dont blame him. And then you go say this shit! Even if you were thinking that, keep that crap to yourself?? why does haesoo deserve to hear that if he tried his best to like you, huh? Literally all Taku thinks about is himself, istg (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸 ppl just see his supposedly "kind" actions while ignoring all this sort of horrible thought process ugh
Anyway I'm just glad Joohae endgame. Cause Haesoo's happiness = Joowon.
And when we see Joowon developing the most, and actually fully supporting Haesoo happiness agenda. Like that time he called Haesoo and told him he'd always be on Haesoo's side as a brother or friend, even AFTER Haesoo left him for Taku. Like Joowon literally wants Haesoo to be happy, even if its with another man??? That's actual love.
Or the way Joowon ran into Haesoo in his company building and told him, "no hard feelings, congrats on your exhibition". Joowon later says he actually felt hurt when he said those things. But he held his words and simply told Haesoo it was okay + did not try to guilt trip him.
Anyway Joowon a whole king. If he wasnt such a massive haesoo simp, I'd want him for myself.
