Does it ever strike you how manipulative Taku was saying shit like "I love you" to Haesoo like a week after meeting him, all because he wanted a story out of Haesoo before he leaves to go back to japan??
Joowon and Haesoo struggled for literally A DECADE because of their parents, and their step sibling past, unable to tell each other their true feelings or express their love. They went in circles and hurt each other so much over it. Because they knew the weight of those words and how much they could lose just by admitting it to each other (hell Joowon lost his relationship with his dad over it at the end???)
And yet Taku waltzes in says fake and insincere "I love you's" for the fun of it. Just to charm Haesoo and try to make him fall for him, alongside his plans to drops him after his exhibition and leave. Hated his dumbass face when this was revealed.
Yeah when you put it like that, the author really did that huh...
Taku is literally a foil to Haesoo and Joowon's relationship. But not in a healthier, better way lol. He was flippant and careless about deeper emotions and feelings, while Joowon and Haesoo were anything but. Those two only downplayed their feelings and pretended they were insincere, in order to mask how scared they were of admitting their true love.
I still dont totally understand Taku's motives to this day. Who tries to make someone fall for them, just because they want to see a story written about them and for some drama or curiosity?
im gonna miss these two so much ;_; gonna reread their cute final chapters over and over and pretend it never ended
not gonna miss that annoying photographer though LOL
