It's actually really sad that the Real Sihyeon suffered so much and never got to know how much the other members cared about him and never got a chance to prove himself. It's also pretty sad that the members are showing him with affection now, but it's too late and they're just being nice to a stranger and apparently like him more than the Real Sihyeon.

Its not that they are late but the real shiyeon doesn't accept their concern and keep distancing himself to other mean while the current shiyeon do nothing and let the members do what they want its like accepting them also. Well can't blame the both side cause the real shiyeon have so many trauma and hurt at the same time and the members are also hurt when shiyeon push them away. But still poor shiyeon may he be well and peaceful

Ahhh second ML syndrome strikes again. Issei is just so much cuter and more interesting than Hayasaka...
Prediction: Hayasaka gonna keep rejecting her because he wants to "make it up" to Issei by letting him get the girl. Finally Issei gets mad and snaps and tells Hayasaka to follow his own heart or whatever, because Issei just wants to see the girl he likes be happy. Hayasaka admits he likes her and they date while Issei gets rejected. The end.

Hmm interesting, I think this is expanding on the novel? From what I recall, the novel was VERY short (like 25-30 chapters I think?) and ended with her talking to the foreign prince at the ball and then timeskipping to a few paragraphs saying she was studying abroad and her fiancé had followed her there, still struggling to win her affections.
This is so dumb. The dad cheats and then brings his illegitimate child home and blames her for ruining the family. My dude, you didn't even have to bring her home, that was your choice. Your family could've lived in blissful ignorance of your shittiness. Also if you loved your wife so much, why did you cheat on her??
(And yes, I know he brought her in so he wouldn't have to send his other daughter to the palace to be engaged with the prince, but still... Dude is blaming the kid for ruining their lives when he's the one who brought her into their lives in the first place??)
The Duke was known to he a faithful and devoted husband so his political enemies (empress and the other ducal family) plotted to ruin his reputation. During a party, they drugged him and knocked him out. He was then raped by Olivia's mom. The mom was blackmailed into it by the empress, but she was conscious while the Duke was not.
