And if I didn't become the best version of me, would you still love me?

It left me quite puzzled when Juyeong sought out Dohae last time, just to apologize and mend things between them. I realize that Juyeong is the one who would do anything to ensure their reconciliation, but he truly went above and beyond this time. He even tried his best to conceal that he was already aware of Dohae's lies. I was touched when Juyeong said, "Whoever you are, whatever version of yourself it may be, or whoever you've become, I like them all." That sentiment is such a powerful testament to his love for Dohae, and I find it incredibly beautiful. Juyeong is such a kind-hearted person; despite being abandoned throughout his life, he knows only how to love sincerely. I genuinely admire him—despite the harshness of life, he has grown up to be kind and loving, which is no easy feat, yet he has managed to overcome it. I’m so proud of him, and because of him, I truly believe that love and kindness exist.The reason for Dohae's disappearance for over a decade sparked a lot of discussions; people were eager to understand why he left and what could justify it. In this episode, his reason was so realistic and beautifully articulated that I found it hard to be angry with him. He dreamed of a peaceful life, wanting to be different from his father and the environment he grew up in, but ultimately, he struggled to pass the college entrance exam after several attempts. Throughout his youth, he endured violence from his father and bullying at school while harboring big dreams. He longed for success, but in the end, he felt like he failed, even resorting to faking his credentials and living a lie. After everything, how could he face Juyeong or anyone from his past? He created a version of himself that was accepted and loved in the lies he spun, which felt like the dream life he had always wanted, even if it wasn't entirely real. However, I can understand the embarrassment and guilt that must have weighed on Dohae. Juyeong endured so much pain at the hands of his father, only for it to culminate in Dohae faking his achievements. Juyeong suffered through those years only to find that success eluded Dohae. I get it; I truly do. At first, I thought Dohae just wanted to bury his painful past, but this added layer is heartbreaking. I just want to give him a comforting hug. Even though he made misguided choices, he has been through so much and didn’t deserve any of it.Lastly, I want to highlight how Juyeong approached the situation. Instead of questioning Dohae, he simply wanted him to know that he would stand by him no matter what. Juyeong believes in and trusts Dohae, promising to be there for him regardless of the circumstances. In the end, Juyeong remained selfless, embodying love and care. In moments like these, what matters most is that Dohae allows him to be by his side, for that’s the true essence of love. Thanks to Juyeong's genuine love, the obstacles and challenges facing Dohae become clearer, allowing his big dreams and aspirations for a better life to suddenly make sense. With Juyeong's support, Dohae can confront his issues and his past, addressing the nightmares and troubles that have been holding him back. I truly believe that this prepares him to embrace love fully and reciprocate Juyeong's feelings in a meaningful way this time.
