mincheol used to feel like a pretty realistic and complex character where, although his train of thought is extremely faulty and reprehensible, i could understand how he became what he is now and mourned his potential. like I actually enjoyed reading the chapters with him back then in contrast to taeha’s #therootofsufferingisattachment #bikerboy nothing burger personality but, I feel like the longer this drags on, mincheol just reads as someone who is comically evil. I get that this chapter is him “protecting his ego” from hearing about haesoo moving on but I was expecting more elaborative mental conflict and angst than just “heh… haesoo is a NOBODY without me!!!” but i dunno maybe the story has just always been like this and im the forgetful one speaking through a nostalgic lens bc its been dragging on for sooooo long
