taeha didn't realize there'd be a chance haesoo would go back to taeha till his bodyguard gave him a rude awakening... he realizes that him and haesoo really have no connections so he wants to be hurt so she could worry and have at least some feelings towards him.... so manipulative lol but not as cunning and clever as i thought

you can tell the creator fully understands haesoos situation. so many other creators put their characters in these situations without even thinking about how it would effect them, they just use it as a plot device (like debt). but this creator also shows how relationships aren't always happy ever after. young teenage love where they only had each other morphed into a unloving and cold house and cheating.
the creator captures haesoos grief correctly, her personality too. she was so tired and exhausted, purely on survival mode at the beginning and didn't take a breather and do anything for herself. she worked herself to death and supported mincheol. doing that for 13 years will literally drain the life out of you. and the creator knows that and portrays it amazingly but yall wanna complain abt the lack of personality. with haesoo growing up abused neglected and anything else and then ending up in a relationship where she's used and tossed aside, that fucks you up.
she was with mincheol for almost 15 years. she's not just going to forget about him and the author shows that well. she still thought of mincheol, of their past and even compared taeha to him at one point. it took haesoo awhile to grow confidence (with the help of taeha) and eventually began to bloom as a woman.
the creator really shows how a relationship can take the light out of a woman's eyes but yall just wanna call it porn with a plot (bc of a few sex scenes) and bc haesoo is curvy.
and yall complained about the pacing when in real life situations people get closer and have sex and teeeter between a relationship before anything else happens between them.
