Is it only me or is it really cringe t call someone you like and sleep with not by their name but by their job position? Like, THHHH???
Exposure to East Asian things would make you think otherwise. Korean culture values respect, authority, status, and based on their external presentation, they also value the stage of the relationship as well (they always confess using "i like you" since "i love you" is next level; they also address their partners respectfully).
It's standard to address people based on their status (sunbae, hoobae, -ssi suffix, -nim suffix, et cetera). In this case, FL is probably referring to the CEO as "sajangnim", which sounds better than the translation tbh. And, it's standard to speak formally and respectfully to people. Speaking informally and casually happens when the parties are comfortable or agreed on it—unless you want to be brazen, rude, and start some argument idk.
FL is understandably not yet in the situation where she's comfortable to change her manner of speaking and addressing sajangnim. She's not even confident about the relationship's future yet. Both of them also never brought it up as well, probably because it's easier given their boss-subordinate relationshi (it will stir up issues if they slip up and talk casually in the office).
Can someone explain rly quick whats going on in the side stories? And why Jooha is calling Doshik mister/hyung when he was older than him. Im super confused also with the school thing
They said it in the first side story Basically after Jooha lost his memories this is when the side stories take place then when he falls into the cold water he gets sort of like a shock then somehow manages to get his memories back. This being the FINAL FINAL chapter of the main story, but the side stories are basically what happened before Jooha completely got his memories back
The poor dude doesn't know he is sparring with a king lmao
