Nice one Mr.passive Aggressive, I explained my point of view but can you? Mind you I'm talking about the characters not you, unless you think exactly like them and that's why you felt attacked. Next time just explain your POV and if you can't articulate just don't comment and give a thumbs down.
You obviously are not, because you refuse to explain your point and continue to think it's ok to blame others for your own short comings.
It's the double standard that's so annoying, the mother was so willing to tell him she can't wait until he brings home a girl he can marry. But once she "thought" it might be a man, she changed, would not dare even mention it to Jeong just to keep it from being a reality. Plus the sister blames Jeong that they are worried sick for him, and he has no clue.
Just because they are not homophobic doesn't mean it's ok to assume the worst. The possibility of crimes against same sex relationships and what ifs, is just as high as when women are in a relationship in general. But no, the mother would not have the same energy. Which was highlighted in the chapter when she thought of the "possibility" of her son dating a man.
“Blame others for your shortcomings”
> blud is yapping about nothing
> not reading all of that buddy
> get a new brain, calling a realistic reaction of a Korean woman coming to terms with the reality of her sons life in Korea selfish is hilarious.
Mind you Korean women are still treated like dirt and you think a mother realizing that her son’s life is going to be x10 harder because he’s gay is her thinking about herself. Lmao. Newsflash, the real world sucks ass. People don’t live in a bubble where discrimination doesn’t exist. Black women mourn their sons because they can get shot for wearing a hoodie, black girls can go missing and the cops wouldn’t care. There isn’t a single person I know who isn’t scared to give birth to a girl because they’re worried her life would be terrible in this crap world. So would you tell those mothers they are selfish for being worried about their kids?
Grow up bro
Thanks for FINALLY explaining something. You would not explain anything which was what I meant by "blame others for your short comings", though you still insult me which is not necessary to explain a POV. It seems I do have to spell it out for you since you felt attacked.
You can't blanket it all on just one specific race because hatred, discrimination happens everywhere all the time including in religions. Don't assume that I have no clue about sociatal views just because I find it annoying.
Stay with the topic about relationships which I'm referring to.
Because there was a time I worried about sending my children to school for the fear of getting shot. I worried they might get bullied for looking different, love differently, had different interests. I worried them stepping out the door and not coming back. But that's not the selfish annoying part.
So yes parents are selfish when it comes to partners of their children. She should of apologized first to her son for her comment about marriage, which in Jeong's mind meant that she would not of approved his relationship. And that's why he kept it a secret and not mention he's dating, though shows how happy he is, the sister sees how happy he is as well. The mother saw that and still refused to just ask, to confirm her suspicions at least. Then worried herself sick for quite some time, instead of showing support first to her son and then express her worries. That's how I handled it, coming from a Mexican Catholic up bringing, and yes people shunned but who cares about what everyone else thinks.
It's annoying that everyone's thought always goes first to what everyone else thinks, or might do. Support, reassurance, comfort should be at home always but realistically it's not a given everywhere which is annoying.
But who knows she might have a sit down with her son and express her concerns "after" she reaffirms her support and care for him in later chapters. And if that does not what happen it would be annoying because she put her concerns first instead of reassuring her son's choices would not be an issue to her.

They annoy the hell out of me. The mom and sister, "oh woes me, what if." Their whole dialogue was just about themselves, and I took it as they kept blaming Jeong-Yoon for making them "so worried". He's oblivious but noticed the change, which is worst because they can't cope. If he was heterosexual they would bug him the whole time to introduce them, but since he's with Chae-Heon and they figured it out, they won't dare ask. Some double standard
