In my view, it is rape. He said "Stop" "It hurts". Right there, he should've stopped. Furthermore, Ex doubled up the power after hearing it causing the tear. I might say Ex is displacing his anger towards his parents to MC. So, from his face, there's an intention to hurt if we think about his displacement. This is just my opinion.
I’m pretty sure that moment happened because Hyun said, “I’ll let you do whatever you want hyung”
Anyway, I was asking the first question because it feels like the story treats the “vomit” as a bigger issue than the injury itself, as in that part affected Jiwon the most he even mentioned it in a previous chapter. I also wonder if anyone else has noticed that, so far, every time they’ve had sex, Jiwon mentions feeling dizzy and nauseated. I wonder if this is related to his first time or just random unintentional bits of the story.
Anyway, i never questioned who was right or wrong, it’s as clear as day. My question was whether people see this very specific situation as rape or dub-con, even though both are terrible and wont change the anything. I don’t understand how this could be read as victim blaming? English is not my first language but I don't think my English is that bad lmaoo
Thank you for this perspective!
Haeseong will definitely be around for a long ride, and based on how it’s been presented so far, disgust rather than the unprepared penetration act itself seems to be the more sensitive issue for Jiwon. It feels like an ongoing, unresolved problem between them that will likely be brought up again in the future.
Thats why im curious on how do people here see their situation? Rape or dubcon? How do they view Haeseong? a cold blooded rapist (derogatory) or as a pathetic, cowardly, spineless yet greedy and shameless person (derogatory)? Either way, he was wrong, should suffer more and give up like man had years and wasted them.
Haesong is both, a rapist and a pathetic coward basically. Maybe he did have a family problem and maybe that family doesn't want him to be "gay", I don't know and I don't care but the fact that he didn't reject Jiwon when he kissed him and even continued to do it a couple of times means he wants Jiwon or he like him. But what's pathetic about him was not owning up for his actions. He did it with Jiwon, could be considered a rape, and he had the audacity to act regretful and disgusted? pos. And then he told Jiwon he was getting married? Bruh he's so childish, wtf he acting like that for when he's the one who can't move on. That's what I hate about him, the way he struts up to Jiwon, acting all smug or whatever. And the nerve to get jealous? he really should look at the mirror, maybe he'll see what kinda mistake his parents did.
Well that's just my opinion
What confuses me the most about their situation is, didnt they ever have any sort of conversation after that? How did they allegedly manage to be around each other like normal even when that damn glasses juyeon girl in college, even ended up working in the same place? Without having proper conversation? Like what the hell is going on? Is this what happens when two avoidant people join forces lmfao.
Did he apologize for hurting him? If he did, did he explain the vomit part? Because clearly Jiwon still misunderstood. I hope the author will touch on this subject in the future because im curious about this part.
I think he will, at some point. I don't know if its just me, but i have a feeling that in the near future, that Juyeon girl will hate the MC after knowing the truth. or maybe not? But the wedding, its either not gonna happen or they'll get a divorce immediately. With how Haesong is acting, he clearly cant move on and still want to see if MC is affected with his marriage with Juyeon girl, I dont think Haesong lpve Juyeon, i think he's using her. What Haesong love most is himself thats for sure.
welp, tmo
The one hes about to marry isnt Juyeon, thats a completely new girl. What I got from Chapter 15 is that Juyeon was Jiwon’s friend, glasses clearly didn’t like how close they were, so he picked her in manito thingy to keep her away from him (then later told him that he picked him, and they kissed), eventually dated her dand two of them stayed close to him like a throuple during college lmfao.
I dont think he is bisexual, he seems more like a messy repressed homosexual who loves himself most and not willing to let go of his past.

So far, this is what we know about how things went down between Haeseong and Jiwon:
1) They made out and went further on the night Haeseong had a fight with his family.
2) Haeseong lost control and penetrated Jiwon without preparation, which shocked him.
3) When he saw the blood and realized he had hurt Jiwon, he became dizzy and vomited.
4) Jiwon cried because he thought Haeseong was disgusted by what they did.
5) After coming to his senses, Haeseong wanted to apologize, but Jiwon asked him to leave due to a misunderstanding, and his loserish ass just went along with it.
Haeseong was wrong no matter what and he was and still is a huge pathetic coward, even in his big age but im curious about other opinions. Would this be considered rape, or more like dub-con?
