stop projecting the blame on Junseo..

Junseo isn't in contact with her for whole year and more.. how could he know that she was close with the grandma, FGS.. if he had known that she's actually happy living her life with inkang and the grandma, he's more than anyone else will be happy for her..

SHE FOR ONCE SHOULD BE TELLING HIM.. not keeping him in the dark.. coz he was the first person she told about his plan with inkang in the first place.. he has the right to know coz she was the one who promised him that she only needed ONE YEAR to be with Inkang..

Jaeo is better for u bcoz he never questions her action/plan, isn't it?
yea lucky for Jaeo that he never witnessed ajin using that innocent man to kill her dad.. and it sucked for junseo to witness that and trying to help her clean the mess..n willing to go to jail for her but still labeled as the bad guy.. WOW.. your logic to justify her wrong doings is amazing..blame it to other except her..

but fine.. im done giving my opinions..

oh she'll be his X first.. then the final X is him lol..

where did i say he's an angel? lol.. i just said he was innocent when he was little kid and HE WAS.. and he was gaslighted and manipulated since he was young and that shaped him for how he acted when he was adult specially the long time relationship he has with ajin..but good thing that he still has moral conscience in him..

and he's been always be there for ajin and tried so hard for her to live normal life ever since their high school days.. but sh*t dad happened all the time to ruin her life.. he tried so hard to bribe the sh*t dad..borrowed money from his grandpa.. but that sh*t dad kept on coming back again to steal that money.. after graduated.. he asked ahjin to move out from the old house, so he wouldn't find out where she lived for the time being, but she didn't want to... coz she already had plan to kill her sh*t dad off by using the innocent man..then he was even willing to go in jail instead of her.. he begged her for not going any further to find that high place coz it'd be dangerous to her, but she didn't listen.. and now suddenly, everything bad that happened to her was caused by junseo? how easy to pinpoint all that to him..

i can't believe that you can ignore how much he has done for her to be living normally since the beginning..and now blamed it all to him about the bad circumstances that have nothing to do with him at all in her current life... it's totally ridiculous..n nonsense.. the way he always confronting her is his way he showed concern to her.. he just wanted her not to be involved in any trouble anymore like she did back then with the innocent man whom she put to jail..
also the way he invested into the company is the way he trying to help her to get to the top.. like she has always wanted..

you want to admire jaeo, it's fine.. but if he's that special for ajin, ajin would have thought about him in the first place or visited him in jail..and met him first before she went to junseo instead..., in fact, it was junseo who brought him along to meet her so she could be happier..and also he knew he'd be useful for ahjin.. if its not for junseo, he wouldn't be able to meet her at all..

anyway, this drama isn't about to find a good male character for ahjin coz obviously, ahjin couldn't end up with anybody coz she is sick, really sick.
i don't wish she would be ending up with junseo as well.. i just want them both to be freed from this whole mess.. and got less suffering ending for both.. coz they have been through enough..

he came back to korea but not trying to approach her, just wanted to see her to see how she was doing after all these years, is she happy now?
and he never talked to her first at the party... he even helped her to learn about what rena was up to with the pic of the police she took which she sent to the journalist cousin.. (on episode 5)

but until he went home.. ajin was already there waiting for him LOL..
if she didn't care, she could really ignore him... but the fact that she couldn't and she actually needed him more coz she was not living a happy life at all..she needed help..and junseo came into the right moment for her..

when did he remind her that she's monster?.. omg where is that narrative coming from?
she was the one who promised him that she would only date inkang for a year.. she was the one who told him not to worry that she would only date inkang for a year.. she was the one who told him what was her plan with in kang.. of coz he had the right to know and he had the right to be worried.. why it took over the year? did she love inkang? and she should answer that question.. not beating around the bush and asked him back about his relationship with rena instead..

he had doubt that she would kill the grandma because he knew what she was capable of.. using an innocent man to help kill her dad.. he was the witness to the killing.. what if she used another innocent person for her gain again? that's very normal to have such doubt.. that's why he went to ask her directly but she answered in a way that she actually did it.. why not just tell him the truth?

jaeoh is just a blind supporter, he's just liked an underling to a boss.. he would just do anything even if it's wrong...not coz he understands ahjin the most, but he just sees her as his GOD.. the boss who would never be wrong..

what's made her worst for her is the people who have wronged her, the grandma accidental death,.. she lost her hope for being a better person.. it's always been the bad circumstances that happened around her that made her unable to live normal way..clearly not junseo..

why you have to go back to eps 7 when all the conversation between her and junseo are just the way of them to irritate each other coz junseo demanded answer bout the promise she made to him in the first place?
ajin was pissed coz the junseo whom she knew would be obedient to her but has started to demand answer.. she should realize that she promised him that first.. coz he was the 1st person who knew about her plan with inkang.. she discussed it with him in the first place what she was gonna do with inkang.. of coz he demanded answer bout the situation, why she needed more than a year.. she should rly just answer him honestly..

on eps 8, it's been very clear that she accepted the movie offer on her own, no one forced her to accept that coz she realized her initial goal as top star is much more important.. the PD took interest in her coz inkang the one recommended her as well.. and that's the goal.. she finally got it and once she knew about the marriage rumor and inkang's retirement... she was not amused.. coz inkang was no use to her anymore.. so she decided to just end things with him..

omg i think i've done repeating over n over again with you.. it's getting tiring..

what kind of true in her words?
her words are full of guilt tripping him..
how could he someone so small and still very much innocent to even help her in that situation? don't u realize that the whole situation was ajin planned to provoke his mother to abuse her so that junseo able to see that how cruel his mother was? ajin's intention in that situation was to make junseo believe that his mother was the worst..(even though in fact his mother is the worst), but ajin did that even knowing she would be injured... but she did it anyway so that she would make junseo to hate his mother even more and side with her. that's part of her manipulation u know!

i suggest you're the one who need to watch it with more open mind and understand both sides..
for me both are victims of their own bad parents.. ajin was being manipulative since young coz she needed to survive hard situation..n that she used junseo as the very 1st person whom she would use as a protector for the rest of her life.. coz obviously that's part of her survival mode..

the morale story i learnt from this show is:
stop being toxic parents so your innocent children won't growing wup become victims and monsters who do harm to other people..coz once they are shaped that way since they were child, there won't be turning back..

not sure.

"junseo the worst bcoz he pushed her to the breakup" LOL..

no he doesn't.. he's just help investing, coz he has always wanted to help her to reach the top.... but the decision to take on the movie is on ahjin.. she eventually took that movie on her own choice.. not forced by him AT ALL.. please watch again episode 8.. her motivation is already clear, she wanted to take on the chance to rise even more.

he tried to kiss her, coz he loves her.. and even since they were child., they were always have that intimacy LOL..at the very least, they are in platonic relationship.. we'll see about that when they show their 14 yo flashbacks..

thank you for explaining it this way.. this is a good take!

i don't know what nonsense of that person (and many of others) to put all the blame on JS to what happen with inkang.. i feel like watching a different dearx from them.. the way they hate JS from a false narrative is insane lol..

not absolute victim yes, but he's still a victim same as ajin..
now you said it.. he's still important to her.. but i don't think he ever brought her pain at all.. it's the bad circumstances around her that brought her pain..

yes most of what is happening to Ah Jin is related to him ---> NOPE

yes junseo silently help her agency and told the CEO that he wanted her to be part of his movie, bcoz he just wanted to simply help her to reach the top.. but he didn't force her to..since eps 1 until 7, never once he forced anything to her, it's always been him letting she did what she wanted.... just watch the scene on eps 7 where she discussed with inkang..she also put interest on the movie... it was her decision in the end.. she approached the director at the funeral..n next day,she had a meeting with the director, the director mentioned about the marriage rumor, then CEO miri said about inkang's wish to retire which made ahjin felt annoyed coz it'd be problem to her plan to rise the top.. that's why she went to inkang for breakup..coz her priority has always been about her being on the top..

the thing with Junseo confronting her is that room is that he wanted to know how was she doing so far.. he tried to dig out from CEO miri but she didn't gave him a definite answer.. he wanted to hear from Ahjin's own mouth.. coz she never answered him for over the year...he wanted to know if she's really happy or in love with inkang.. but instead answering him, she asked about his relationship with lena, is that jealousy or what? if she's truly happy with inkang, she should just tell him to back off coz she's eventually happy, like she did to him on eps 4.. but she left him hanging like that with no answer.. she's the one who promised him that she would date inkang for only a year... then she should be the one who answer that question..

you guys just want to tolerate her as much as you can coz u can't see her as a flawed character here who could do bad things towards good people...and projecting the blames on the other character..

If it were pure obsession, he would try to control her completely or force her to stay, but he never crosses that line. Instead, he respects her choices even when it hurts him, which actually points to love rather than possession.

THISS!!

well-said..

wow always easier to blame it on someone who's been with her since they were young.

- Her dad found her address because of Jun Seo's mom, i don't know how she found it but it thanks to Jun seo. Her dad started ruining her life again after that, making her loose her place at the university of her dreams.

you are not sure how his mom found it n yet you determined that it was coz of junseo..seriously?
Junseo asked her to move from that OLD ADDRESS so the evil dad didn't find it out. but Ajin refused, coz she had plan to kill the dad off..

- She was happily living with In Gang and his family, but he did everything to make her comeback to him (by financing her agency in exchange of a projet with her). Because of that, Ah Jin's anniversary was a mess, the day she could have been fiancee with In Gang...

all Junseo wanted is her to be successful like she always wanted.. she has said to him on ep 4 that no matter what she wanted to go to the top...did you see how Ahjin was not happy when knowing about the marriage rumor? the director told her that the marriage rumor is not gonna be good to the movie? and asked her to sort it out? she was the one who eventually wanted to star in the movie, not forced by Junseo.. at outside of the funeral place, she was the one who approached the director.. and the director put interest in her.. that's when she decided want to star in the movie.

- She said that she didn't need them to do anything when the grandma died, he wanted the surveillance video. If he didn't take it, In Gang could have seen by himself that she didn't kill his grandma.

u know what? if ahjin really cared for inkang, she would be the one who told him the truth right at the funeral that she didn't push the grandma.. why would wait for him to see the CCTV footage? that's not needed..as u claimed she was happy with inkang..she could hv told him that she was with the grandma that day..and didn't she tell her full story to the police? and inkang didn't even know? (this kinda feel like a loophole tbh)

- He says that he wants her to be happy but he is the first bringing her pain. He just wants to be the one "saving" her, but to save her, she needs to need to be saved, which cannot happen if she's happy.

yes he's always been wanting her to be happy.. he even brought jaeo along so he could at least see her laugh .. and also when she said she wanted to learn to love inkang, he held it in and not went mad, she let her.. but she was the one who made promise to him that it was only a year, if she truly happy with inkang, then she needed to give him the closure so he wouldn't be left in the dark without knowing anything.. when he confronted her, instead of answering yes or not, she should hv told him right away, the reason of why she wanted keep staying with inkang.. she was not even so sure yet (not until the grandma died, it was solely coz of the grandma she stayed.)

how convenient of you to connect every of her tragic stories to junseo, all those happenings, from his dad, his mom, the stalker, with the grandma falling down and inkang's suicide got nothing to do with him. it's all those bad circumstances got on her way.. not caused by junseo...he didn't bring her pain.. but her surroundings are.. if he really bring her pain, SHE WOULD CUT HIM OFF FOR GOOD U KNOW... but see on eps 8.. she was still gaslighting him and making sure with the words said by her that he can't just escape her.."you're the first person i let to be by her side..."

you wanna defend her fine but don't project all the blame solely into junseo.. he was there from day 1 who took care of her.. protect her the way that he could..

He probably tried to kiss her because he was desperate, scared, emotionally drowning, and trying to hold onto the one person who has shaped his entire emotional identity since they were kid.

tbh, ahjin should really let him go if she doesn't care about him at all.. but she keeps on playing his emotions..

no love triangle.
and u don't have to underestimate the actors like that.. geez. . without other characters, there won't be any stories to tell u know,,. and if you want only female center story.. without any male characters, u can watch the other dramas.

junseo works as a novelist and pretty famous.. and also now working as a script writer and investor to entertainment world..(this is not on the webtoon)
jaeo seems to be working as an errand boy in a private investigator office, but didn't show it that much in the drama.. but in webtoon, it does show..

you have to understand that junseo has been heavily influenced by Ahjin (manipulations and gaslights) since he was young and his mother didn't really care about him aside of his money...but he seems to be quite close with the grandpa though.... but his main focus is always about Ahjin.. coz he feels like he needs to protect her coz of his guilt ridden motivation since he was young.

as for jaeo, he's also manipulated by Ahjin, she was saying stuff like he's an useful person to her.. not someone who's trash.. he's worthy.. and for him, nobody ever said such thing to him., that's why he treats Ahjin like some sort of "GOD".. he kinda worships her and willing to help her with anything she needs..

he didn't know that's why he asked her.. ahjin the one who promised him "no worry, junseo ya.. i'll only date him for a year..." she never said "i won't tell you anything about my date with inkang, so you don't interfere me...get lost.."
