Ek must be one of the most annoying characters I had the displeasure of watching over the last period. So, this man knows Wan has never been into him, but he proposes to her anyway, cheats on her, then acts like the victim. I saw some people on discussion threads saying that he was used and that it's sad. Right, but to what degree can one deflect blame when they got themselves in this situation to begin with? The woman couldn't be more repulsed by him, and yet, he keeps harassing her and acting psychotically. How many times does Wan need to spill it for him to understand? Ick is making the series very hard for me to finish because I just want to reach through the screen and punch him.
Wan is also not helping her case by saying that she married what's his face because young Pleng told her so. Huh? That's unreasonable. I get that they're trying to show Wan's undying love for Pleng, but you mean to tell me that this woman couldn't find a single person whom she is at least slightly attracted to besides Pleng to marry, and instead, went for Elk (sorry to the animal for this comparison)? Don't even get me started on Pleng's decision to work for him when she knows that Wan is clearly uncomfortable with it. I get it. She needs money, but why work for the one person with nefarious intentions? Both Wan and Pleng knew why he offered the latter a job, and yet, Pleng brushed it off, and now we have Ick running amok acting homophobic and psychotic.
