Fck

What do you mean? Are you confused by the ending?

Not gonna lie I kind of wanted some grand sympathy more widely, and most importantly a revenge of sort. But I know that wouldn’t result the best-as the story suggests, we shall forgive and forget…but sht I was hurt so bad and invested so much over every panel an his suffering it just feels unjustified to some extent

You’re wrong in a way. I agree that it shouldn’t have been revenge because it would end up bad. There was already revenge in a story and that was his death. But the story doesnt suggest forgive and forget. It was more resentful to a realization.

Remember, the previous emperor and the emperor now were in the same reincarnated body, but both have different consciousness. Our MC never forgot but did try to forgive for the sake of karma. But after realizing that emperor wasnt the same man because they hold different consciousness, his resentment came to an end as it was not the old emperor he once knew.

This story is a lot complicated but simple to understand so I understand why you feel that way.

Wait. What emperor? …am I tripping or are we talking about diff manhwas

OMG IM SORRY I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE . This is why we take care of ourselfs

But still you’re wrong in a way (my actual reply that relates to this). The story didn’t suggest forgive and forget, it suggested an escape. Sehyun who was taken advantage of didn’t have a choice but to comply with mathew (or wtv his name was). He had a soft spot that left when he created his tragedy.
He couldnt leave, but dreamed of eacaping, he couldnt forget, but wished to move on. The ending shows how little he starts to improve to portray that tragedy. But even if it shows little, it means a lot for a Sehyun who just escaped to put an end of his tragedy, start a new beginning with an undefined slow progress.
Healing always takes time, years to finally come to a mental pause but not a complete end. Many truamas never leave or is pretty to deal with which makes it a realistic ending with how you feel that it’s unjustified.
Unjustified just feels wrong but its better than returning to an open wound which Sehyun wants to heal from. His escape was the unsatisfactory moment you feel for a realistic ending.

Can I ask u something pls. I am confused. Th3 end. The Xmas tree Pic. Why was sehyun and the family was separated. Or were tehy in two different places. Why did sehyun look like he was hurt. Aah im so confused. Is ther more chp pls can u tell me if u know

Sehyun was separated since it wasn’t entirely the legit moment. I’m sure he took a family photo but remember that one of the girls didn’t like him and so he wouldn’t feel qualified to have a family picture. He would seem like a mole in hinding of shitty past. He just holds a lot of prejudice against himself therefore the ending still shows that of him.
