I really hope Yoo-Gon will be honest with Jung Hae about why this line of work specifically is so important to him. i do think Jung-Hae was wrong to doubt and antagonize him, especially since Yoo-Gon has always been as honest as he could with Jung-Hae without being too vulnerable. Jung-Hae said he'd accept all of him, only to doubt his commitment to him because of his own insecurities.
but Yoo-Gon also has to realize that he's keeping a lot from the people he dates at the same time. even if they accept him and his career in sex work, they're going to want more than he has to offer in terms of why quitting is such a sore spot for him.
It probably has to do with his sister, father and family, so I don't doubt we'll get some big reveals soon. but Yoo-Gon just didn't seem like the kind of person who was ready for relationships, not cause he's a sex worker but because they require a level of vulnerability that he's obviously not ready to give.
Also we will not tolerate Myung-Ha hate in this house, he is only a victim of circumstance.
Myung-Ha is not 'spineless' he is a poor man being exploited by the healthcare system. He doesn't have the economic privlege of upholding the mores of romantic entanglements in the face of financial stability, especially when his dying mother is being used as a bargaining chip by some psycho bitch who pissed down his throat to scare his boyfriend away. Literally.
A central theme of this manhwa has been the lengths people go to for money in a society that not only places more value on the image of economic stablity than it does on actual human welfare, but demands you maintain an air of decency too. Whoring yourself out isn't just running your name through the mud, it's social suicide. And he was doing it for his mother.
All of these people are desperate for money. Why is it such a surprise to everyone that Myung-Ha would accede to her demands? There's other avenues but he's never going to find one with less bumps in the road.
Jung-Won may be hearbroken but he knows what it's like to be that desperate. He know's Myung-Ha doesn't love her either and he isn't going to just let Myung-Ha throw his life away like that. There's obviously risidual feelings.
