It's not about Seo-an trusting and loving Woowon. He's being controlling, possessive, and selfish. He's treating Woowon like a pet who he can just pack up into a suitcase and take with him, someone who has no agency or other ties that could possibly be more important than his own desires. It's pretty damn gross.
What she said! Yes, this!
agree :( I’d feel so disrespected if my partner talked to me the way seo-an does to woowon. I’d prob break up w them tbh
That’s what they said tho…. He’s showing his love in the wrong ways
I don’t disagree!! Please read what I was saying, he’s expressing his love badly! There’s a power imbalance and seo-an clearly doesn’t understand what a two-way street is and doesn’t know boundaries. If you’re trying to tell me that what they have is not love and just seo-an being manipulative, possessive, and selfish, then i’d disagree. Though his feelings are far from healthy, i’d argue that he’s just using his own means to protect woowon. I agree the thing with keeping woowon in the dark about him getting reassigned abroad is a great issue, too, and it’s clearly wrong for seo-an to assume that woowon would just come with him. i like this manhwa because it has very nuanced feelings involved, it sort of reminds me of my own home situation and i take a bit of comfort in it, so i sincerely hope that seo-an can redeem himself!!
my heart hurts so bad… seo-an trusts and loves woowon but shows it in all the wrong ways
