no fr. the story laid out that he was pretty smart enough so im sure even without the strings pulled he'd still get a shot of that scholarship. what really frustrates me is that this man is so incredibly naive dude istg and ml being vague about his affection towards mc is making my head hurt. but dear god do i love the drama
Victim blaming someone with self respect i see. Do you see everyone suffering and working hard for their lives as prideful for not selling themselves off when there's a chance to whore themselves out for easy money? Its clear yeomin like him thats why he stays with him. Do you think he'll stay with him just for the money??
I bet yall the ones who's quick to call him as a gold digger if he actually just give in for the money ugh. Your perspective is revolting. How did u come up with that
??? i get you, but the people who are presumably reading these types of stories are ADULTS. adults who are capable of forming their own thoughts, understanding and reading between the lines of a claim that is OBVIOUSLY just quite stating the obvious. IT IS NOT VICTIM BLAMING — it is POINTING OUT a trait that a character has. wtf. moral policing something like this is so fucking weird lowk
"your perspective is revolting" and it's just ONE comment about op stating the most obvious thing ever.
"do you see everyone suffering and working hard for their lives as prideful for not selling themselves off when there's a chance to whore themselves out for easy money?" everyone has pride. you, me, your mom, my mom—EVERONE. what op is CLEARLY saying is that mc suffering through his old life without outside help is dumb. it's not exactly a a gracious helping hand, but it is something that led mc to have an objectively better life than what he had before. (being chased by loan sharks, prioritising work over studies due to debt, his fuckass father being a bum and bothering him) you do understand that a person WILL be frustrated about this and WILL have the free will to voice this opinion.
"I bet yall the ones who's quick to call him as a gold digger if he actually just give in for the money ugh." and you lost all your parlay. the original post is about OP starts with op saying "i understand mc" CAN WE NOT FUCKING READ??? it is then followed by them voicing stating the most obvious thing ever — mc being concerned about others more than he is of himself (by being worried about his father, what others think of him due to the anon post about his scholarship, ahjussi's perspective of their relationship) HOW IS THAT EQUALS TO "would blame mc for being a gold digger"????? IN THIS FUCKING ECONOMY?? no one is judging someone for that shit—most of all a fictional character.
+ OP IS CLEARLY BEING LIGHTHEARTED IN THE OTHER REPLIES. CAN WE NOT READ BEHIND THE LINES or do we all constantly just think everything is fucking serious 100% of the fucking time

Did we skip a chapter? anyways, I understand uke's pov but his pride is just too ridiculous. Does he rather kill himself by working 10 part time jobs, barely eating any food and always running from loan sharks?? Don't be stupid!!!!
