Courtney has the backing of the crown prince and is deemed to be his master. She can simply state "It is hereby of command that these four no longer carry the name of a noble. This house will now be renewed in another name with higher power." A simple statement, simple words from the queen herself is enough to re-write anything.
Once she marries him, she better throw them off the streets. Away from harm, but will teach themselves to live as a peasant.
My rotten self wants him to end up with someone who is kind. My other self wants to respect him and his desire to have feelings for someone else that is true. It is depressing to think that you live in a world fictional to others, and now you understand, you don't even know if everything that have been until now were real. At the same time, my rotten self would just go "you too deep there lad, I hope he has a wonderful time."
Mincheol is a jack-ass, but I understand why she never left him. It's hella terrifying and maybe because of the past, she see things she wants to see, and I can see it too, I can feel it as she does.
"Maybe I can still love him, maybe he can change."
"Maybe, just maybe, if I do a little better, things will turn back the way it used to."
Those thoughts comes in, stopping her from leaving him. The thought of that one sparkle of love moght exist.
Then, reality hits, and she sees him, the real him, how much he has crumbled, how much love exists, which is none. I can see what a fucking asshole he is and it makes me disgusted at myself for thinking "maybe she's right."
With that, I don't trust the Beom guy. I don't trust him at all. All I wish for Han Nae-Soo is to find the courage to finally sent herself free. The key is in the cage, but with that much freedom of choice, it's scary to just take it and run away. I understand how that feels.
But Han Nae-Soo, please, I beg of you, fly away. Break yourself from Mincheol, turn away from love that you wish to seek, because how can you love another when you can't love yourself?
I don't want you to learn it the hard way...
Please...
How did these kids grow up to be so uncaring and ruthless? Not even aknowledging the fact that they murdered someone, as well as torture countless others, thinking it was all under "fun" or "removing trouble."
Though I am beginning to dislike them more and more, I wonder what they saw during their childhood to grow up like that. Although, they are still teenagers, not adults, even so, it is at the age where you consciously know whatever you are doing is either right or wrong.
So...why? That's what I want to ask. Why do they do these things?
AUTHOR-NIM!!! COME ON!
