—"Sorry, I'm incapable of feeling that."
Actually, this sentence is very deep.
Psychopaths lack a part of their brain that regulates certain natural human responses: fear, anxiety, depression, sadness, shame. They can't think like that.
It's not that they don't want to. They simply CAN NOT.
It's like trying to connect Wi-Fi to an old Nokia phone. No matter how hard you try, it just won't work. It's not about not wanting to, it's just that the feature isn't there. This is what a psychopath is like.
So when a psychopath can acknowledge that they are biologically 'unable' to feel such things, that's already a HUGE step forward.
Because indirectly, his amygdala responds to a phenomenon, but when his prefrontal cortex can't provide feedback, on the other hand, he can still acknowledge it.
I'm not saying Wooyeon is right. No. He's wrong. The whole time.
But as someone who has studied deepest aspects human psychology, I just amazed
by incredible progress he's made in this episode.
Thank you for your explanation! His character is very well written and realistic, I really like how the author portrayed him as a psychopath who finally has his way to make a progress ヾ(☆▽☆)
anytime, princess
After all these chapters, remember what Spongebob told to Patrick:
SO THIS IS WHY IT'S CALLED "AFTER THE SEA."
BECAUSE JANG YOONSUNG ATTEMPTED SUICIDE IN THE SEA, HOPING THAT AFTER SINKING TO THE BOTTOM OF SEA HE COULD MEET LEE HAKYUM, HIS TRUE LOVE.
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
I REFUSED TO READ THE NOVEL (even though my friend has the full version and already gave me access to her Ridibooks account) Because I didn't want to ruin the mystery. I've been dying to know answers to:
1. If Lee Hakyum knew Jang Yoonsung was in an accident, why he so shocked when Yoonsung had amnesia?
2. Why does Jang Yoonsung have Lee Hakyum's ring?
3. Why the alternative title is After the Sea?
4. Why? Why? WHY???
And my patience paid off. FINALLY, ALL MY QUESTIONS AFTER FOLLOWING THIS STORY FOR DAM THREE YEARS NOW ANSWERED
IT TURNS OUT JANG YOONSUNG TRIED TO KILL HIMSELF FUUUUUUUCK
I NEVER EXPECTED THIS AT ALL. HE ALWAYS SEEMED SO BRIGHT AND CHEERFUL, YET HE REACHED A POINT WHERE HE DID THAT, ALL BECAUSE OF HOW MUCH HE LOVED HAKYUM
I THOUGHT ALL THIS TIME HIS AMNESIA WAS BECAUSE OF THAT ACCIDENT.
BUT NO, IT'S BECAUSE OF A SUICIDE OH MY GOD
PLEASE JUST KILL ME. I CAN'T HANDLE READING ABOUT THEIR PAST ANYMORE
and please do not spoiler
now why would you make me realize this
That’s obsession. What Lee Wooyeon’s feeling right now, what ppl call it obsession. I once attended a seminar about human psychology, specifically about psychopathy in human brain.
Psychopaths have abnormal activity in their amygdala and prefrontal cortex: parts of the brain that regulate emotions, including sympathy and empathy.
When a psychopath lacks these emotions and falls in love, their love is far closer to obsession than genuine affection or compassion. It’s not that they don’t want to feel love, they just can’t. Their brain literally doesn’t come with the features for it.
Obsession goes beyond love. Love might still have some room for rationality, but not for obsession. You can even obsess over someone you’ve never met.
While a normal person’s love can grow stronger or fade over time, a psychopath’s obsession remains constant. It doesn’t change, not even when their lover is long gone (dead), even.
This here is what I want for people to understand when they read shits like this, dude isn't just like a psycho, he IS a psycho. Peeps should understand that he will never change and that this really depicts the real thing.
This is actually a terrible story, bad character development, lack of plot building. And yet, I finished 52 chapters in one night.
After comes to the newest chapter, all I want to do is slap the creator's face. Actually this is the first time and the worst case ever a creator could be done with their MC. Not only Randal almost killed by her own mother, and that home crazy nursing? This is the first time I've seen torture by electrocuting someone just because the thought about the guy he loves.
I'm also contacted writer, but I'm not this cruel to my character.

グッバイ
(Goodbye)
それじゃ僕にとって君は何？
(Really, what are "YOU" to me?)
答えは分からない
(I don't know the answer)
分かりたくもないのさ

たったひとつ
(But one thing, for sure)
確かなことがあるとするのならば
(If you can ask my heart, that—)
「君は綺麗だ」
