I usually can "pardon" a toxic crazy ML with good redemption but this is soooo driving me nuts, I kept saying "crazy bastard" while I'm reading but I cannot stop reading. Crazy plot and I cannot forgive the ML, the only thing that gives me a bit of peace is that I hope he never told MC his identity and stay "kind" to him until the very end cause MC deserves to feel he's free (eventhough he's not Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
The way I interpreted the dialogues is... Byul could not hate his grandmother the first time he met her because she reminded him of Hyesung (because they look so much alike) and that's a positive feeling more towards his mom, that's why Hyesung immediately forgive him, it is his son after all. And I'm sure if he knows the full story, he will have disappointments towards his grandma too. We only have one chapter. We'll see if they will dive more into Hyesung's feelings and conflicts related to this. As for Dojin, I agree that his excuse is ass knowing he's aware of what she did to Hyesung
Byul doesn't know any better, and he regrets what he said immediately. He didn't know the details about what happened. I'm more concerned with what kind of excuse Dojin will come up with to Hyesung about why he's been supporting her other than sense of responsibility. I do hope this problem will be resolved with a good communication and validating Hyesung's feelings. He's the one who has the most right to feel what he felt. But saying Byul doesn't have empathy or anything is false as well. That's because he has so much empathy, he can feel that way to both his mom and grandmother at the same time, tho he definitely has to know more context to understand why he shouldn't force the reconciliation between his mother and grandmother (if he ever thought to do it). Hyesung is the only one who has the right to have a say about it.








Idk it's realistic to me cause I have to face my dad who abandoned me too and ended up being his caregiver... Because he did have a few years of being a present father before he choose to abandon and neglect his children. Do I resent him? Yes. Do I still care? I do, those few years of him being quite a good father still live in my memory eventhough I also resent him at the same time, but that's why I am willing to care for him in his final days. Idk, family is such a weird thing. Easy to say cut them off, but in reality, it's still a different relationship from friendship. You can't just cut it off.
You are an incredible human being.
I cried at Hyesung's reunion with his mom.. You're making my cry even more.. you are indeed incredible
I think I just feel like it's a duty of a daughter, it's not always right, but that's how I was raised as Asian kid, that kids somehow always end up forgiving their parents when most people said it's the parents who mostly do that. Nah, mostly, it's the kids who chose to forgive no matter how awful they're being treated. But a healthy distance helps a lot in healing yourself. And I won't say that every parent deserves forgiveness. I just happen to have similar experience with Hye Sung so I understand his choice
Thank you, but I am not. I just feel like it's my duty (because of how I was raised) and I am not saying every parent deserves forgiveness but somehow children always end up the most forgiving. I do believe a healthy distance with our toxic family member is the way to go, so it helps a lot when you have to face them one day.
