if you keep watching you'll see it's the total opposite.
Yes he hates cheating. That's exactly why he was smiling when he sees Da-rim happy with SU and SU son thinking it's a lovely family. đ Can't you see how he stopped himself?
The ML is a ridiculously wealthy heir whoâs had every material advantage imaginableâincluding the looks. Meanwhile,…
Haha. Emotional suffering doesnât care about wealth or privilege. Heâs still stuck loving someone he think he canât have because of the lies around him. What is cool is that he have everything (looks, wealth, character) but he want Da-rim because no one made him feel like how Da-rim made him.
I don't know why many people think ML is being forceful. He just followed his dad and the girl's family's choice, which is engagement (it was beneficial for his mom too), and he is a businessman man so he knows what will benefit him the most.
Benefit # 1: Doing that will free his mom from his dad. His mom's freedom and happiness is his happiness. Benefit # 2: He doesn't like cheating, and he wants to save himself from becoming a cheater.
I feel bad for Ha Yeong but honestly I see what you mean. In ep 2, she pretty much disregarded JH's refusal and…
Yep. It's like a reverse from ep 2 and til now. I don't know why many people blame ML for being forceful. He just followed his dad and the girl's family choice (it benefit for his mom too). An advice I would give SFL is to not persue man. SML should pursue her instead. She have everything (looks, money, character).
jesus christ, that's not love. he was obsessed with her and just wanted to possess her just like jin ah's husband.
Iâm not trying to excuse everything he did. What Jun Seo did was extreme, but that doesnât automatically make him a villain. His emotional collapse came from trauma, guilt, and desperation, not from a desire to control or hurt her. He wasnât calculating or manipulative the way someone like her husband was.
Crossing the line doesnât make someone evil; it makes them tragic, flawed, and desperate. Jun Seoâs love was destructive, yes, but it wasnât about entitlement, power, or abuse. It was about fear, guilt, and not knowing how else to protect someone he cared about.
No matter what, we can't change each others opinion so let's leave it as like that.
jesus christ, that's not love. he was obsessed with her and just wanted to possess her just like jin ah's husband.
He wasnât trying to erase her or control her life like her husband did. He was desperate, guilt-ridden, and trying to fix a situation he couldnât fully control. His actions came from fear and love, twisted by trauma, not from entitlement or deliberate cruelty.
About the documentary: he wasnât trying to paint himself as morally clean or excuse anyoneâs actions. He was exposing a complex truth, the chain of events that trapped her while showing how deeply flawed the system and the people around her were. Yes, it wasnât perfect, and yes, some things were messy, but that doesnât make him malicious.
Trying to kill himself and her was tragic and extreme, yes, but it came from emotional collapse, not calculated malice. It shows desperation, not premeditated control. Real love is complicated, and in his case, it was destructive because he didnât know how else to cope, but that doesnât make him equivalent to someone who systematically abuses or manipulates. I know cases like you mentioned and I don't support it as well. I'm just talking about his character throughout the whole show.
Calling him her last shackle is fair in hindsight, but itâs not the whole story. He was flawed, broken, and desperate, not evil. His tragedy comes from how deeply he cared, even if he went about it in a destructive way.
I get why the documentary upset you, but saying Jun Seo made all the people who harmed her look like victims is…
I see why the documentary upset you, but I think itâs being misunderstood. Jun Seo wasnât trying to punish her or make it seem like she wasnât the victim. He was trying to show the truth about her suffering and how society failed her.
Yes, it was messy and not perfect, but it wasnât about excusing the people who hurt her. He acted out of guilt and desperation, trying to fix something he couldnât control. It doesnât make him blameless, but it does show he wasnât being cruel or selfish on purpose. The tragedy is that his emotional collapse caused unintended consequences.
Just stating my opinion and you are entitled to your own as well.
Are you replying to someone or youâre stating an opinion? And are you implying her emotions and motivation are…
Iâm mostly replying to their points, but also sharing my opinion. Iâm not saying her emotions or motivations are less than his, theyâre just different. Ji Hyeokâs actions are driven by family protection, while her feelings come purely from love, even for someone who might not fully deserve it. Both are valid and strong motivations, just coming from very different places.
jesus christ, that's not love. he was obsessed with her and just wanted to possess her just like jin ah's husband.
Yes, what he did was wrong. Yes, it was dangerous. But that doesnât mean his mindset or motives were the same.
He wasnât trying to possess her the way her husband did. Her husband abused her by drugging her, making her hallucinate to control her. Jun Seo was emotionally drowning, jealous, confused, not scheming to trap her. That doesnât excuse what he did, but it does separate desperation from calculated cruelty.
About the novel and the documentary: he didnât make money off her trauma. The story shows he used those things to expose the truth, not to protect the people who hurt her. The documentary wasnât about making them innocent, it was about showing the cause of her pain.
And no, he wasnât âokay with killing her.â He broke down to a point where he couldnât see a life beyond losing her. That kind of emotional collapse is tragic and dangerous, but itâs not the same as a man who coldly decides his partner must die and keep himself alive. He literally told her âlets go to hell togetherâ He wasn't being selfish. Itâs a fatal mix of guilt, trauma, and obsession, not dominance. His logic is âif I can't stop her from ruining lives then we will die togetherâ.
Youâre describing him as if he spent the whole drama trying to ruin her life on purpose. But thatâs not what happened. He sabotaged because he was terrified of losing the one person he thought gave him a meaning. It's not the same kind of evil as her husband.
What he did was tragic, desperate, and wrong, but painting him as a deliberate monster is wrong.
I think the part that made me most angry was the FCKING DOCUMENTARY. Junseo literally made everyone who legit…
I get why the documentary upset you, but saying Jun Seo made all the people who harmed her look like victims is taking it too far. That wasnât the point of the documentary at all. He wasnât trying to erase what they did, he was trying to explain why she was trapped in that painful life.
He wasnât justifying them. He was showing the chain of events that shaped her suffering so the world would understand what she endured. However, audience didn't take that as understanding her.. They just hated the fact that she used people around her and that she killed her own dad. Thatâs not the same as defending them.
And saying heâs as bad as Moon Do Hyukâ ignores the entire difference in their motives. Moon acted out of cruelty and power. Jun Seo acted out of guilt, desperation, and a twisted attempt to protect her after everything fell apart. Both wrong, but not equal.
Her having options now doesnât mean his death was some perfect, clean ending. It just means sheâs finally free because the person who loved her too intensely and wrongly is gone. That doesnât make him the same as someone who intentionally destroyed her life.
Calling it a âvery good endingâ is your take, but itâs not fair to rewrite Jun Seo as a monster when the story showed he was broken, not evil.
Jun seo and moon do hyunk are same but the difference is one have some morals and another one is psychopath
Theyâre really not the same. Jun Seo and Moon Do Hyuk act from completely different places. Jun Seoâs actions come from emotional desperation and confusion, not from the cold, calculated cruelty Do Hyuk shows.
Do Hyuk does things because he wants control and power. Jun Seo reacts because heâs overwhelmed by his feelings and trauma. Putting them in the same category ignores the fact that one acts with intention to harm, while the other is acting out of fear and emotional damage.
Benefit # 1: Doing that will free his mom from his dad. His mom's freedom and happiness is his happiness.
Benefit # 2: He doesn't like cheating, and he wants to save himself from becoming a cheater.
