I hope everyone realizes that Jihwans can't control his own bad behavior. He is mentally ill. He can't comprehend that what he's doing is sociopathic. He's deeply struggling w his mental health w no help and it's sad.
If anything I'd be mad at Sooyoung for not seeing what's in front of him.
Well I wouldn’t say being mad at sooyoung is right either . He’s also just a high school boy dealing with the trauma of almost being raped , and jihwan did really well before with hiding his sociopathic tendencies from sooyoung . He’s like a savior to sooyoung so sooyoung chooses to see the best of him . And now with feelings involved it can make rose tinted glasses , especially to a vulnerable high school kid in a bad financial situation . At least now he’s starting to see something is up .
Being an abuser without thinking youre an abuser doesnt mean youre not an abuser. Jihwan IS a bad person, he IS a red flag. Its sad hes not getting help but the fact hes negatively impacting so many other people doesnt change. People understand hes msntally ill, they also understand most abusers are.
Jiwhan is a HUGE red flag!! His behavior isn't due to mental illness; it's due to obsessive behavior. Jihwan knows right from wrong. He knew that his father basically imprisoned his mother. And he plans to do the same thing to SY but he's using a different approach as he admitted to his father, so hopefully the outcome will be different. Jihwan manipulates situations so the outcome will show him favorably. Like how he got rid of Gyujin from SY's side and out of his life. He helped flame Gyujin's behavior until it erupted and got him expelled from school. Jihwan fakes weakness around SY all the time, but his true self slips out sometimes. And now systematically isolating Sooyoung from his friends is his next step. Red flag behavior. In the beginning, SY was only peripherally aware of Jihwan, but Jihwan was fully aware of SY and has been slowly moving into his vision. Now, that SY is fully aware of Jihwan and can see him -- Jihwan is moving forward with making sure SY's eyes are only on him and no one else. Sooyoung has been warned by Jihwan's friends that he is unstable and by the family driver, but hasn't really listened to anything they've said to him, and he sorta admitted to himself that Jihwan is creepy. RED FLAG!! Just because you ignore the flag doesn't mean it changes color.
Sooyoung is very vulnerable, he try to avoid conflicts and take as less space as possible, he let others lead the way. He is also incapable of imagining the worst from people and is oblivious of those around him which lead to him confusing controlling behavior as care.
In no way is it a bad thing, it's just his personality, but abuser do choose their targets because of their vulnerabilities.
I'm really not going to read all that... But! I saw the last few lines about ignoring red flags... I'm not. I have an understanding of extreme mental illness. So many scenes in so many chapters where Jihwan is taking medication, incapable of differentiating good and bad behavior, manipulation, extreme violence etc
Jihwan has a mental disorder
Jihwan's mental illness is his obsessive behavior. He knows right from wrong. He's a manipulative bastard who is trying to isolate his prey, Sooyoung, from all his friends. Sooyoung is is caught up in his own issues that he's totally ignoring the obvious truth about Jihwan. We'll have to agree to disagree, but to me, Jihwan is a gigantic walking red flag.
For me it seems like Sunbae has had his eye on Gunjoon for a while and they have a past tgt.
Sunbae has clearly dated alot bt how is that a red flag??
Sunbae has a lot of secrets and it would be crazy to assume he's as perfect as the author has made him out to be.
Whatever happens I'm ready
This new "every 10 days" trend is actually annoying
ur reading on an illegal site, i dont think you have the say on being annoying on artists taking a breather so they dont constantly have to go on hiatus.. they need breaks too.
stfu make ur own story then
This is a comment section I can say wtf I want you lil sht
Yes, and? I said what I said bc I can. Get over it
"get over it" then keep sulking about having to wait 3 more days per update ╮(￣▽￣)╠womp womp
This man has literally massacred whole bloodlines. Of course he clocked Yeonjo wanted revenge from the jump. He's literally an expert war criminal. I'd be more surprised if he wasn't suspicious
"Next time? Are you coming into some money soon?" Was so savage it had me ugly cackling
No like that hurt even my feelings
Ahhhk I love this!! Crazy cos I was thinking about thud story last week and went to check if the author continued w new side stories of had a new story
I hope this doesn't become a thing w authors to post every 10 days
It has become. Idk if you have read rhe notice or not. I'm equally sad too.
I think it's normal that their relationship is deteriorating because they hide so much of themselves from each other. With so many secrets it was never going to be roses and rainbows and it's only going to get worse
Unless they actually talk and be honest and stop running away
They both want the same thing but it's like they don't know how to get it. Wooju is clueless about most things, even his own feelings, which is cute but I think it's because he has trauma!
Jiheon clearly has trauma and abandonment issues and wooju is his safe haven. And because he's an alpha he's completely unhinged when it comes to what he THINKS is his.
This story is actually well thought out, complex and good. I'm no fan of alpha/omega stories, this is my 1st read so let's see how it goes
Can't wait for S2
