Can we stop acting like the ML is the villain for five seconds?
The MC spends the entire story talking about how unfair it is to be judged just because he’s an omega—which is completely valid. But then the ONE alpha who treats him like an actual person, respects him, believes in him, and never looks down on him? He hates him anyway… simply because he’s an alpha.
So what’s the difference? Isn’t that the exact same prejudice he’s been crying about this whole time?
Meanwhile, the other alpha—who comes from an enemy family, abuses him, drugs him, assaults him, and commits actual crimes—doesn’t get even half the hatred the ML gets. Make that make sense.
And now that the ML is finally done chasing him and is ready to walk away, suddenly the MC wants to “understand him”? Suddenly he wants to hear him out? Oh, now we’re doing that? Where was all this curiosity when the ML was standing by his side the entire time?
It doesn’t feel like love. It feels like the MC can’t handle losing the one person who always chose him. The attention is gone, the devotion is gone, and now he wants it back. That’s not growth—that’s desperation.
If you hated him that much, then stand on it. Let him leave. Don’t wait until he’s finally moved on to start acting like you care.
And everyone dragging the ML right now… for what exactly? He’s literally trying to let go and move on with his life. The only person refusing to let him go is your precious MC. The ML isn’t the problem anymore—the MC isSssssss!!!
Exactly! That’s what’s been frustrating me.
I’m not defending the ML because he’s an alpha, and I’m not criticizing the MC because he’s an omega. I’m judging them based on their actions.
The MC keeps talking about how wrong it is to judge someone because of their second gender, yet he does the exact same thing to the ML. Meanwhile, another alpha who has done objectively horrible things gets less hatred from him. That’s the double standard I’m talking about.
If the roles were reversed, I’d be saying the same thing. Actions matter more than whether someone is an alpha or an omega.
I understand what you’re take is, however the reason their actions cannot be judged equally is because they are not on equal footings to begin with. The fact they are both means a world of difference to their actions, ml doesnt have all of his lifes work at risk simply for being an omega lile the mc and that makes a world of difference. Think of it like this - equity not equality. However because mc does so much more out of desperation including the disregard of ml, he is judged that more harshly because its not what is expected - which is where the comments comparing omegas to the womans experience are coming from and the comments about deep rooted misogyny. Hurting someone should always be acknowledged with some form of apology or reparation, however your take on just actions is valid if all people and genders are equal, and as they are not in society or in this omegaverse scenario, a little bit more grace should be given out of understanding for BOTH sides given the reasons for their actions.
Mc had so much more to lose which would literally affect the course of his life.
mc is crying about prejudice bc the omegaverse they live in makes it hard for omegas to succeed so he has to work twice as hard. and here comes ML who’s competing with him, and as an alpha, has an advantage. if this doesn’t sound familiar with you, it’s how men and women are irl. mc disliking alphas is valid because in their society, alphas are the oppressor. women saying “men are trash” is valid because irl, men are oppressors.
mc is interested now, and asking about ml’s reasoning, because all along he thought ML was competing with him; but suddenly, ML gives it all up. of course it was confusing? he’s known ML for a while. you can’t just “leave if you hate him!” (which makes me think, are you like that with your friends? do you give them zero chances to clarify things too? awful)
his rapist getting “less hate”… do you want the author to spend 10 chapters talking about it? he was fired. and it also emphasizes how mc has a tendency of not dwelling with his emotions and still being on top of his work because that’s his number one priority. it gives evidence that his character was never about romance and emotions, hence he’s having a hard time navigating his relationship with ML. it reveals a flaw about him, a device for a common miscommunication trope.
you guys are acting like this is the first time you’ve seen a character who’s terrible with feelings. there are worse cases of “manipulation” or bad behavior on other manhwas and you chose to cry about it… HERE?
Equating systemic oppression to personal relationships is a flawed reach. Yes, Alphas hold systemic power, but weaponizing that to mistreat a specific individual (Hyeondo) who has shown nothing but genuine support and loyalty for a decade is pure hypocrisy. Yuhyeon is doing the exact same thing society did to him: judging someone by their biological subgender, not their actual behavior.
Asking to 'understand' someone only after they completely give up and walk away isn't just 'confusion'—it’s a toxic pattern of taking someone for granted until they are gone. Hyeondo gave him ten years of chances. Yuhyeon didn't care until his safety net left.
Also, minimizing a literal sexual assault by saying 'the rapist was fired' while holding a decade-long irrational grudge against a green-flag Alpha shows a massive moral double standard. Calling out terrible writing and a hypocritical MC isn't 'crying'; it's called having actual media literacy
“flawed reach” when it seeps into the top 1 in mc’s priority list, which is his career? as much as he trusts hyeondo as a friend, every time he sees him, he thinks hyeondo is out to take something away from him. and that he can easily do so because he’s capable and he’s an alpha. if there’s any reach here, it’s calling what ml is going thru as “mistreatment” wth
“now that his safety net is gone” how can mc see ml as a safety net when he’s a walking contradiction of a good long-term friend and also a competitor for THE ONE THINGGGGG mc has worked hard for? he looks at hyeondo and the first thing isn’t a romantic partner but someone who threatens his position
“hyeondo gave him 10 years of chances” wasn’t hyeondo the one putting his ass to work to get the chance? why is hyeondo now “giving” the chance? hyeondo agreed to be “used” by mc as long as mc doesn’t sleep with anyone else. his spiel was “i’ll be your alpha lackey for the rest of your life” like don’t save him bro he’s where he wants to be
“minimizing sexual assault” bc dwelling on it isn’t pertinent to the story? can we agree tht it was a confusing ass plot device, plus what we have rn are just these chapters so we don’t know how else it continues.. BUT to accuse of mc of not hating his abuser enough is crazy. u just want him to be “unreasonable” so bad and paint yalls golden alpha hyeondo as “mistreated”
no i don’t hate ML. where the hell did you get that? bc i was defending MC from yall who are acting like this is the first time reading a miscommunication trope? “green flag seme” pls stand up omg
and every time u feel like mc aint shit, go read ch15-16. he deserves nothing less from hyeondo.
I understand what you’re saying, and I agree that the MC has a lot more to lose because of his status as an omega. That absolutely explains why he’s more fearful, defensive, and desperate. I’m not denying that.
Where I disagree is that understanding why someone acts a certain way doesn’t mean their actions should be held to a different standard forever.
My issue isn’t that the MC is flawed—it’s that he repeats the same prejudice that hurt him. The ML was one of the few people who saw him as a person first, not just an omega, yet the MC still judged and pushed him away simply because he was an alpha. That’s the irony I’m pointing out.
I also don’t think the ML deserves to be blamed for things other alphas have done. He should be judged by his actions, just as the MC should be judged by his. Their circumstances explain their behavior, but they don’t erase the impact of it.
So yes, I have empathy for the MC’s situation. I just don’t think empathy should automatically mean he’s exempt from criticism when he hurts someone who genuinely tried to stand by him.
You’re comparing systemic prejudice to individual behavior, and that’s exactly where your argument falls apart.
Yes, omegas face discrimination. No one is denying that. But experiencing prejudice doesn’t magically make prejudice against every individual alpha justified—especially when that individual has never mistreated you.
The ML didn’t abuse him, belittle him, or use his status against him. He respected the MC from day one. Judging him solely because he’s an alpha is still prejudice, regardless of the reason behind it.
And your “men are trash” comparison doesn’t work here because the ML isn’t “men”—he’s one specific person whose actions consistently contradict the stereotype the MC keeps projecting onto him.
As for “of course he was confused”… okay? Being confused doesn’t erase the fact that he dismissed the ML every time he tried to explain himself before. Now that the ML finally stops chasing him, now he wants answers. That’s exactly the point.
And I never said the author needed 10 chapters on the rapist. I’m talking about the fandom’s reaction. People are spending more time villainizing the ML—who’s literally walking away—than the guy who actually assaulted the MC. That’s a bizarre priority.
Finally, “he’s bad with feelings” explains his behavior. It doesn’t excuse it. A character flaw is still a flaw. Understanding why someone acts a certain way doesn’t mean everyone has to like it.

You keep explaining why the MC acts this way, but you still haven’t addressed whether it’s fair.
Yes, he sees the ML as a competitor. Yes, he has trauma and prejudice because of the society they live in. I understand all of that.
My question is simple: what did Hyeondo actually do to deserve being treated like the enemy?
If your only answer is, “he’s an alpha” or “he’s competition,” then you’ve just proven my point. You’re judging him for what he is instead of what he’s done.
And no, I’m not saying the MC has to “hate his rapist more.” I’m saying it’s ironic that the fandom spends more energy condemning Hyeondo—the guy who’s been nothing but supportive—than the man who actually assaulted the MC.
Also, “Hyeondo chose this” isn’t the defense you think it is. Choosing to love someone doesn’t mean you deserve to be taken for granted forever. At some point, walking away is the healthiest thing he could do.
You keep saying “it’s a miscommunication trope,” and I agree. But a trope doesn’t make the MC immune to criticism. Explaining his behavior isn’t the same as justifying it. I don’t hate the MC at all. I actually understand where he’s coming from, and I understand why he has those feelings because of the society they live in.
What irritates me is that the story shows him experiencing prejudice and unfair judgment, but then he turns around and does something similar to someone else who hasn’t actually harmed him. That’s the part I’m criticizing.
You can acknowledge someone’s trauma and struggles while still holding them accountable for how they treat others. Both things can exist at the same time.
At the end of the day, my point is simple: if you know how painful it feels to be judged for something you can’t control, you shouldn’t make someone else feel that same pain because of something they can’t control either.
the systemic oppression is seeping in his personal relationships bc when he sees hyeondo, he sees someone who has the potential to take smth away from him. his career, his status, everything he worked hard for. and it doesn’t help that hyeondo, an alpha who has advantage in the game, is vying for the same spot that mc wants.
“he dismissed ml every time” because it was just hard to trust someone who’s supporting you BUT at the same time coveting the spot you want to earn. it’s difficult to see romance first when he sees hyeondo.
mc knew he fucked up something and is just realizing it now, but everyone’s implying that the trigger was hyeondo no longer being there for him. it paints mc as someone who’s dependent on hyeondo. while that cld be part of how he realizes he fucked up, it was also the uncharacteristic choice of his competition (ml) of giving up the fight for the position. there was a weird business side to it that he also cldn’t ignore.
you don’t have to like mc but i think it’s unfair that he’s being judged by some just because he won’t move their relationship forward. yes he’s a villain to their own romantic story but ML isn’t exactly perfect. we know he wants the position because of mc’s challenge, but the mc doesn’t know that, so hyeondo isn’t exactly the most trustworthy person to him.
i appreciate hyeondo’s loyalty esp after mc saved his life but mc deserves nothing less of what hyeondo offers him. both of them are worthy of love.
Re: the rapist part - i might have misread the situation because i didn’t know the comsec was focused on hating hyeondo. i just came here to defend mc lol
I understand where MC’s fear comes from, but understanding someone’s reasons doesn’t mean their actions can’t be criticized.
Hyeondo isn’t just “an alpha” or a symbol of the system—he’s an individual who has consistently supported and respected MC. That’s why it’s frustrating to see MC judge him based on what he represents instead of who he is.
MC deserves empathy for what he’s been through, but Hyeondo deserves empathy too. Both things can be true.
Honestly, this was really fun. I enjoyed responding to everyone’s comments and seeing different perspectives. I’m glad nobody turned it into a “you’re wrong and I’m right” argument. Everyone had their own points and actually explained why they felt that way. It really felt like a genuine debate, and I had a good time discussing it with you all.
Thank you I honestly thought I was explaining my point badly because I kept seeing people focus on the alpha/omega aspect instead of what I was actually saying.
My point was never “MC is bad because he’s an omega” or “ML is good because he’s an alpha.” It’s literally just about actions, accountability, and whether someone is being judged fairly.
I think both characters have valid struggles and flaws, but we can still acknowledge when one character’s actions hurt another.
The omega was assaulted in high school and later ended up pregnant. He decided to carry the pregnancy to term and gave birth to a baby girl who was an alpha. Because of what happened to him, he became a single parent and raised his daughter on his own.
Years later, he works at a school where he eventually meets his alpha mate. However, because of his trauma, he struggles to trust him at first.
At one point, during a dangerous incident where he is almost assaulted again, his alpha mate saves him. After that, the alpha becomes very protective and possessive of him.the omega went on a blind date the alpha find him they ended up sleeping together they also mated plz help me i beg

I won’t be greedy. If I keep asking for more, they’ll probably drag it out until we have to watch him die, and I really don’t want to see that. So I’m going to be satisfied and grateful with what we got. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I truly appreciate every minute of it.
