Lemme just say: i'd pick a man that was willing to drop everything for me and genuinely loved me start to end for 10 whole years too.
With haesoo/joowon's relationship, i dont know why readers act like theyre inherently a bad pair, while ignoring their whole environment and outside pressures that caused their unhealthy dynamic?? idk about you but it sounds crazy hard to try navigating a relationship as a little highschooler with a step sibling for 3 years, and even after you werent step siblings your parents were constantly trying to rip yall apart, causing abandonment issues and misunderstandings, and the public is watching your every move too?? how does that sound easy for them to deal with no matter how genuinely they love each other??? T^T if yeongha erased their step sibling history, and maybe changed Joowon's career into something less public, I believe Joohae literally would have few to no problems in their r/s.
Also I feel so bad for Joowon. He literally spends majority of the manhwa suffering. Like he was under so much pressure from family, work, public, even leo's schemes... and yet his intentions and love for Haesoo was pure from start to middle to end (no not like taku trying to get with Haesoo to use him for self-interest sake lol). And the way he unconditionally supported and showed love for Haesoo even when HS said all that shit to him during their seperation and went to taku... yeah i knew he was a keeper after that. And ofc let's not forget that he actually had the most development in LOH as a character too and changed in the best ways.
