Crazy idea, I feel like Mugo and Jaheon came from the same place, in the sense that they were brought here just for the benefit of others. Mugo was made into a god from the family to grant them wishes, and Jaheon was brought here to be a sacrifice for Mugo to be able to have their wishes granted. I can see why Mugo doesn't hate Jaheon even though he's from the Kang family, because the sacrifices can relate to Mugo a little. Stuck and confined in darkness, only here to benefit others and nothing else. I may be tripping on this idea, but does anyone else see it??
Honestly, I can understand why some sympathize with his character because of his past. BUT, it doesn't excuse him, it never will. Dan grew up in a bad situation as well, and he still is a better person. They both had someone who was a gleaming light in their past who was trying to help them, and yet only Dan grew up to be humble and kind. Jaekyung became what he hated tenfold; that's most likely the only karma he will get in this story. He will never become a redeemable character, because rape isn't something you can become better from. It just shows how much of a selfish loser he is. He became his dad honestly, just in a different font cause losers come in many different ways.






i just love how the author really is not playing into common tropes here. there is barely a lack of communication, if anything dohu is so willing to be open, it's just juheon is hesitant and doesn't want to do the relationship all over again. which is extremely realistic; we can't expect he'd be head over heels for dohu over him simply being straight forward with him and honestly i love that. i want it to progress slowly and burn brightly because it will make the moment they get back together so much more worthwhile.
