Feeling like some things need to be said because some of y'all are out here going like 'oh Jihyun's changed, he seems like such a better person and deserves Chiwoo's love" lemme stop you right. fucking there.
First of all, who the fuck thinks it's a good idea to visit somebody they not only sexually assaulted, but also nearly maimed for life COMPLETELY UNANNOUNCED, and think it would go great and swell and totally not awkward? Not to mention, how the fuck did he know where Chiwoo worked if he hadn't contacted him before this point, like could you BE any more of a stalker.
Alright, but what about WHY he showed up, surely there must be a good reason like idk, maybe anything other than selfishly seeking closure for a trauma he perpetuated onto someone and have only recently grown the balls to ask for forgiveness to their face? Oh, so it actually is just that. JUST that. Besides volunteering unsolicited information about his life such as 'oh i'm getting hitched and have a job now.'
But then, the. the AUDACITY. To even FATHOMMMM asking something as tactless and self absorbed as "Will you give me a hug? As a friend?" To someone he's hurt so motherfucking deeply and not seen at all for years before this point? ALL the props to Chiwoo for having self respect and saying a polite haha fuck no, you think we're friends the fuck? It's like, he didn't owe Jihyun any favors, as a matter of fact it's exactly the reverse situation, Jihyun owes Chiwoo a fuckton for what he put him through and he still has the *gall* to ask for a hug like that's just the cherry on top of everything my dudes.
Idk what kind of change y'all are seeing or maybe it's bc I've personally dealt with pple who're like this, but just bc someone is calmer, or nicer, or puts on any pitiful airs does not and i repeat DOES NO T mean that they are still any less self-centered or manipulative. He was very much so before, and honestly this behavior doesn't help his case to make me believe he's changed for the better. I know it may be hard, but y'all should recognize red flags when you see them and not get distracted by dashing good looks and sad puppy eyes this is how assholes play people in real life too :)
