Literally took the thoughts out of my mind and put them together so easily and remarkably. You're so articulate I'm gonna kiss you now.
Thanks for the compliment, I just really love how the author chose to take the long way around to let the character heal naturally and grow back together instead of using it as a shallow plot forcer (which is the more common route)!
I really want to point out how great chapter 99 was. In most cases, the mental trauma and resulting misfortune of the “abandoned” half of the main couple is used as narrative or in universe justification to get them back together while sidestepping the other issues that led up to it.
Doha states in no uncertain terms that his health and mental state are his responsibility only, and not Juheon’s. He acknowledges the breakup and how distressing it was, but takes responsibility for his reaction and part in the lead up to that event.
He reaffirms his feelings while acknowledging that the way he behaved made it impossible for Juheon to truly trust him, and let’s him know that he will work to regain that trust until he can feel comfortable being with him.
