People defending this like he didn't meet yw in middle school when he was a grown adult. yeah he didn't have feelings for yw as a child but people can still rightfully call it weird.
Taegu was like the only adult who cared for him so it kind of sets up expectations for the reader that they have a kind of familial bond
yws soul must be made out of rainbows and unicorns like how has he not crashed out yet
Did u forget he has a whole box of medication under his bed due to all that trauma did u also forget how as a middle schooler he coped w the domestic abuse saying that it was all bc his father loved him?
Yeah that's what he's doing: coping we've yet to see him actually having a full on mental breakdown (let's just hope that doesn't happen)
