i understand why you might dislike taku, joowon and haesoo, they all have their faults. but i think it’s borderline weird you guys are just putting all the blame on just one person?? like joowon was an asshole and he kept being in denial of his wrongdoing because he didn’t want to accept reality. haesoo is tired of giving his all to others and getting hurt in return, however he unconsciously keeps longing for the same person. as for taku.. yes he was manipulative but you can’t blame a man for trying. he did start he’s whole relationship with haesoo out of really weird curiosity, but it eventually turned into actual feelings. yall can say whatever abt him manipulating haesoo into a relationship,, but i just see it as taku offering a distraction, a way out, a second option, whatever you wanna call it, i will stand my point that taku played a big role on both haesoo and joowon coming to terms with their emotions. however we were all aware there was never room for that relationship to bloom, not with haesoo anchored to his past, not with joowon coming to realize his wrongdoings, and not with taku trying to save what he knew was a lost cause.
I don't think people are blaming everything on Taku. Everyone is well aware that all 3 of them are pretty toxic and have made a lot of mistakes. BUT, Haesoo and Jowoon has had a lot of character development and atoned for their mistakes (at least a little), while the next chapter shows us Taku hasn't changed at all. He's still selfish, toxic and manipulative to the bitter end. That chapter hasn't been translated yet, but a lot of people are pissed at him for what he does.
i literally don’t care about what side you all are on. you can’t deny taku had a big ass influence in haesoo and joowon’s relationship. it’s kinda obvious haesoo is going to end with joowon, as bad as i want him to find happiness on his own, it doesn’t seem as the feasible ending. haesoo’s relationship with joowon is beautiful, but as good as it is, it’s the epitome of toxicity and miscommunication. while haesoo’s relationship with taku... there wasn’t a space for it to begin with. as much as taku tried, that same miscommunications between haesoo and joowon was the downfall of it all. haesoo never had that space in his life, and less for someone like taku, someone that could give him all he needed, but not what he wanted. that is why that scarf scene hurt so much. i don’t exactly remember if taku gave haesoo that scarf... (pretty sure he did) but either way, it’s a literal representation of how taku was discardable for haesoo, sure he gave him a chance.. but it was almost out of pity. taku was a distraction from the real problems for haesoo, taku was aware of it. that he could never fill the same space in heasoo’s heart as joowon did. this chapter was a really harsh blow to the heart. taku knew all along that he’d have to let heasoo go, sooner or later. and it hurts so fucking much because even when he was well aware haesoo was basically using him, he understood. he fucking understood that haesoo would never love him.. and yet he did his best in the time he had, not to make himself happy, but to help heasoo. he never pushed or pressured him, he always made haesoo a priority. taku played an important role. one that happens from the sidelines, slowly, without anyone realizing.
