i feel like putting himself in the monastery was his attempt at realizing how weird he was being and trying to be better ??
oorrr maybe it was just so he could be away from the family and scheme in peace BUT i wanna think he has some conscious
she seemed kinda into it tho so maybe theyre perfect for each other either way ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
are we meant to feel bad for him or somethin?? all im getting from this is that he actually used to be a decent human being who could love her properly with his whole being, (even tho he was somewhat immature, young and naive); BUT THEN TURNED INTO A TOTAL DICKHEAD??? FOR SOME FUCKIN REASON??? COMPLETE 180???
hhheeellll nnaahh
People change when faced with hardship. Honestly their situation is a perfect example of why you shouldnt marry early and without money. People say hardship makes people grow closer together but thats not true, its overcoming those hardship together. If you dont overcome the hardship and you end up getting stuck in it, youll just end up resenting each other.
I don't think this part of the story is meant to make people feel bad about Mincheol, but mostly to make people understand why Na Haesoo has a hard time moving on from him and why she has a hard time trusting her new relationship. This is how most people are in a toxic relationship, they can never move on cause they're still holding on to that person their lover used to be. I think it's a good thing to add to the story cause now I understand why Haesoo didn't leave him despite him being an ass. She owed so much to him and at some point, he was the only one who truly cared and loved her.
not only that, but haesoo also experienced verbal abuse from him that further exacerbated her view of her own self worth, and under years of living with the current him while also holding onto hope that he'll change and be who he was when she met him... yeah, no wonder she stuck with him even through everything he put her through and struggles with her relationship with taeha











im invested obviously like im still reading but GOD DAMN WHEN DOES IT EENNNDD
LIKE SERIOUSLY I THOUGHT THE RING WOULD BE IT BUT NOOO
Wait i havent read since her and roger like “reunited”? During that hunting thing What the heck did she get the ring??? Pls spoil EVERYTHING
so basically to kinda sum up the last few chaps tho kinda brief considering all thats happened (and obviously everything below will be spoilers for those not caught up)
she can't bring herself to leave roger or see him go even if for his and her own good
they run away together to this holy area where the general public isnt allowed usually which contains a cabin that she and roger live in happily
while theyre in their little bubble tho she's been considered as a kidnapped bride and the prince n duke are going insane thinking she didn't go willingly
they eventually find out where she is, bring her back much to her dismay and in the process roger gets gravely injured by the prince which causes her much distress
the prince later tells her he is dead and she doesn't rlly know what to believe, the duke on the other hand feels some sort of remorse since he is somewhat aware he took away someone that made her happy
spoiler alert yet again but roger is not dead and he's been forming this elaborate plan to give her a sign that he is alive
during that time it is found out that she is pregnant and no, not with the child of the prince or the duke, it's rogers! so this baby inside her becomes her new resolve and will to live but also she continues to feel trapped in this life
she has given up on the ring and if it weren't for her pregnancy she would've continued to give up on life since the only other thing that kept her going was revenge on the prince (attempting to kill him) but even then that wasn't enough to truly give her a will to live
I PERSONALLYYY do not see an end to this anytime soon which I mean ig is good cause yayaya keep reading but NOOOO cause keep seeing her suffer with no solution in sight yet
