Lmao they're already bickering, is this what their future together is gonna be like.

My probs with him is that, I understand how poverty can change someone, but how does bro expect any of that happy family life and getting out of poverty to happen if he was just sitting around the house spending her money and making her do all the house work

Even when he was jobless he could've helped her around a bit. Unlike Na Haesu who was actually working her ass off to achieve that dream. Even had her cooking his breakfast in the wake of dawn.

Bro just wants her to be sparkling, cheerful, and radiant while girlie was working herself to death on 3hrs of sleep.

He cheats, but is certain that Na Haesoo only has him and can never leave him anyway. He knows her weakness of being lonely and uses it to keep her clinging to him.

He also does this to Ari the new girl. He knows her weakness as a young innocent naive rich girl who'll give him anything he wants. So he takes advantage of this knowing full well he isn't going to stay with her.

It takes a certain type of pos mindset to think that way, so low-key I'm theorizing that Mincheol always had this way of thinking. I'm sad to think maybe he was always this way.

Yes, I believe he really wants a happy future with Na Haesoo and have kids with her, but this kind of toxic mindset in a relationship doesn't come from becoming impoverished.

It's a core principle, and involves how he views these women in the first place. He saw Na Haesoo as a pretty little thing that has worn out, and Ari as a new plaything to throw out once he's done.

He also has a toxic traditional mindset that insists Na Haesoo does all the housework and that she should look good for her husband at all times. That he's to be respected as the man of the house. This is stuff that doesn't come from being poor.

In fact, being poor would've been a wake up call to some people that helping each other as much as you can is much more important than gender roles in the house.

So did poverty really change Mincheol?

Just like that scene where he stops smoking cigars in front of Na Haesoo. He had always been smoking, and the only change he made was to not do it in front of her. Until he no longer cared to hide it.

Who really was Mincheol before he stopped caring about what he did in front of Na Haesoo?

I totally agree with everyone else. It hurts even more to know it was once love. Real love. I hate the reality that love just isn't enough sometimes, this time it was poverty.

I would also hope like Na Haesu, that in the face of struggle and poverty, me and my partner would push through it together. As long as we're together, but that's when you see whether you'll stick or fall apart.

They definitely do also seem like their own ML and FL main romance couple in a manhwa back in highschool. But time skipped to the future, the part you don't see, is the tragic downfall of them.

And yeah, this has scared me more about marriage too. If only I could really know people's real selves before getting into a relationship. Sometimes people are just such good liars. I wish that Mincheol was truly sincere in the things he did for Na Haesu, though low-key what if everything he was doing good was just him trying to overcompensate for something bad about himself.

Like, does anybody remember that Ned Fulmer guy going on and on about his wife like it was his whole brand? Then he was caught cheating. Unexpected, or was it? If you look back and see his choice of words and opinions, it would occasionally shine a light on his true colors. So it turns out his whole I love my wife thing was just a mask to hide his cheating side.

Same with John Mulaney. I love my wife jokes. But in the end, they really were just jokes. Cuz when pandemic hit in 2020, he cheated on her and had a son with another celebrity during the affair, therefore him forcefully ending the marriage without the wife having a chance to consider staying with him. And we were also clowns for putting a crown on him, saying John Mulaney and his wife were Hades and Persephone and stuff. Once again, it turns out all his I love my wife talk was probably something done out of subconscious guilt for being unfaithful or his potential unfaithfulness.

So Mincheol in highschool would do all this for Na Haesu. Give her something each morning, working hard to buy her a phone, calling her wifey in public. All sweet and good things. But does it secretly just try to compensate for a bad nature he could be hiding?

"The trust of the innocent is a liar's most useful tool."

I don't want to believe that we live in a world where when a guy is being romantic and sweet to you actually means that they're bad. But do try to see if beyond all the kindness could be mal intentions.

(Low-key if they announce their love in front of everybody around or in public in a way that's too loud or repetitively, it could be them just trying to build an image for themselves that they love their partner so they won't be suspected otherwise. They're mostly just trying to convince others and themselves. It's like that one story in the Bible. A man who prays in public, but just so that others would see him praying, not because they're sincerely faithful.)

There's this thing they say couples should try to do, though it's not 100% guarantee, is going on a backpacking trip together. Especially somewhere difficult. There'll be a lot of walking, limited food and water, tiring amounts of travelling without much rest. Because it's easy to stay together through the good and peaceful times with each other, but put yourselves in the worst conditions, then see how you treat each other. Because in the many years you'll stay together, something just as difficult as this trip could one day strike you two.

Anyways that's all my yapping.

He only thanked Heonjae... how does that make you feel, Jingi?

Just came from twitter indulging in Homicipher fanart, for some reason low-key seeing Heonjae doesn't feel too different from that vibe (especially since his eyes are hidden like most of the characters).

Oh okay, so bestie's intentions were good, but in the wrong direction because FL wouldn't accept anything from her unless it's being thrown away.

Please spoilers of the most important parts I need to know if this is worth my time. If the ML is even the slightest bit worth redeeming.

I hate the culture of pushing friends to date strangers. Like, bruh if YOU feel bad for them getting rejected, then YOU date them. Don't force others to date when they've already said they're not interested.

Personal experience of this: Two dudes who I thought were my friends pushed me to my STALKER. They thought he was harmless, and that I should "give him a chance". And I wish I had the guts back then to tell them to f*ck off and go date him themselves if they like him that much. Don't be an incel who endangers women by forcefully setting them up with people they're not interested in. Go endanger yourself, not others

Damnn hahahaha, got blocked by this ChillingonPluto user here in this comment section cuz they were getting called out on their hypocrisy XDD

Blocking just so you seem like you had the last word in the comments is such a coward way of avoiding confrontation for your own comment. Either respond or ignore, but blocking just to save your own ass from getting whooped in a comment section is so funny If anyone see that user here again, tell em I said "lmao".

Honestly, good on the seme's mother for leaving those two crazy assh*les and living his own life with a new family and a new husband. He didn't stay and suffer with their toxic bullcrap like the way mc is doing right now.

Hm??? They still didn't tell him that they made out and almost had sex tho??? They summarized it as "he mistook me for you and went to a hotel but he left when he sobered up" but cut out the part they were kissing on the bed???

That still counts as hiding what happened between them. Wtf, I thought they were going to be 100% honest now? It's unfair to just slide it under the rug as if it's not a big deal.

Just tell uke about it, it's not fair to be acting like "what, no, nothing happened between us, stop being sus about me going to that bar" when clearly something pretty significant did happen between them along the way.

And the low-key gaslighting. "I never said we were a fling, I just said we had an INTIMATE relationship because we're special". Likeeeeeee, bruhh. How can Doha not feel like there's something going on with you two, or blame him for feeling uncomfortable visiting that bar when y'all are talking like that.

I get that they're only close friends now because they ended up not having sex, but making Doha seem like it's just him imagining the air between them or that he's just misunderstanding their "intimate" relationship is just gaslighting.

Doha just spilled everything about his life, even the most traumatizing parts. And yet Bom hardly ever revealed anything to him about his family problems either, and now he's not even fully telling Doha about his past relationships. Am I the only one who sees this bs??

Yo, stahp. This isn't fair to the white-haired guy, even if he is just an NPC target!

Kind of a crappy fantasy to make the worst guy possible to be ML and make the nicest guy ever to be SML. Who wishes for stuff like this?? "I can fix him" ahh delulu fantasy. I can tolerate an ML with flaws and attitude problems, but not an ML who seems like the straight up bad guy.
