He did clear that up awhile ago. I think he just put it on so his coworkers wouldnt ask questions (and also bc he was going to give sihyun a ring)
He also didn’t seem to remember kissing and choking out ML during military service, which wasn’t addressed. So when he misunderstood MC talking to his other client about golf after the previous nights talk about their sexual encounter in the military-where they both talked PAST each other due to double speak- the ML was given the impression MC was flirting with other clients at sex clubs. SO.
Adding the misunderstanding of the MC having a partner on top of that (never taking initiative to clear the air when he had multiple opportunities) and for some reason being offended when ML thought he was promiscuous WHILE WEARING SAID RING, it triggered MLs painful past with his mother who seems to be what looks like a mistress leaving him to take the scorn of the family.
Not to mention it literally feels like the MC FORCES the misunderstandings on his own at certain points. His own coworkers that don’t even interact with the ML will point out his behaviors/actions and MC will just brush it off and continue to say/do egregious shit to hurt him. His whole point of view is “I want to make him feel bad because it’ll make me feel better, lying is completely normal, he never really did anything to me but I feel like shit that he misunderstood me so he needs to be taken down a notch.”
I find it hard to sympathize with him confessing at the 11th hour and throwing a hissy fit now that homeboy is getting an arranged marriage.
I hope I got it all in one lol.
Ahhh right he thinks mc is also with the celeb friend too. Id say the ml making assumptions and not clarifying is wild too
Reading this seriously reminded me of those dating sim games where you get options on how to respond and it generated outcomes but MC chose the worst choices back to back to back haha
I was staring at the ceiling in silence a few times to reflect on what the author wanted me to feel.
What was the misunderstanding in the first place? Mc would have a ringto imply he was partnered when hes not, and never ccleared this up with his love interest?
