Glad there are more people who agree, thought I would get attacked ❤️

Right? 👀

That is what I think at least. I believe it is normal that your reaction to a situation that is unfolding itsef in front of you is different from a situation you only heard about it.

TOO FAR?
NO WAY! He was being generous! That piece of shit deserved worse!

I gotta admit his response to Bum Seok getting bullied and asking him what he did wrong did not sit well with me cause most of the times victims are just victims, innocent people, but maybe his question was aimed to confirm that Bum Seok had actually done nothing wrong. I don't think Soo Ho did not consider him as a close friend. He cared. You say that if Si Eun wa the one bullied he would resort to violence but how can we be so sure? Yes he did use violence in the last episodes but that is because he saw how far the bullied had gone. He was not there when Bum Seok was bullied so he might not have known how serious the situation was and he was not feeling forced to use violence, but he still wanted to help by making them apologize and he still used a bit of violence against Bum Seok's bullies, he just did not want Bum Seok himself to use violence. Also, I think most people in Soo Ho's place would act the same, after Bum Seok's treatment towards him it is natural that Soo Ho was upset. Si Eun did not give up on him that easily cause he was not the one receiving Bum Seok's outbursts.

The police in this gets on my nerves.

I wholeheartedly disagree. I only agree with the part that you said Bum Seok went through abuse he did not deserve, but returning that abuse to the people that cared about him does not justify his actions. He just took out his pain to the people he could target easier since he did not deal with his trauma. No one pushed him to the dark side, he chose it himself. He was driven to the edge because of the constant abuse but it does not justify his actions. If he felt that wronged why he did not take revenge on the people that actually abused him and went against his friends for simply not getting a follow back? Psychologicaly it makes sense that he turned on other people because people pushed to the edge tend to lash out on innocent people, that however does not excuse their behaviour. Ahn Soo Ho is a fighter but he rather not use violence. He even stepped in the fight between Si Eun and the bullies in ep 1, taking the side of the bullies because things were getting out of hand. When he was training Si Eun he practically taught him self-defense and asked him to not fight back cause he could get hurt. He does not like promoting violence and he only fights back when he deems it necessary or he thinks that it is okay when he is the one fighting back because he is more experienced. He does not seem to like seeing others fight. When he heard about Bum Seok's situation he found the bullies and made them apologize, but it was just another situation in which he wanted to avoid violence as it might have made things worse. Later he used violence because no matter how much they try to run away from the bullies they always come back so he was pretty much left with no choice and he also must have felt guilty thinking his friends got hurt because they were trying to get to him. So no, you can not compare them and put all the blame on Soo Ho for trying to avoid violence and justify Bum Seok for almost killing him just because he '' was pushed to the bad side'' . Bum Seok is responsible for his own actions. He should have made better choices.

Damn I loved the ending of ep 2, tho I wished he had cut off some fingers or even better his dick.
If it keeps up like this I am totally sold. I am desperatly trying to fill the void weak hero class 1 left in me

It is true tho, I took a look at past comments and saw familiar users. We truly took over MDL

BABES
YOU ARE HERE TOO?

'' Friendship has always been the cornerstone of a strong romantic relationship'' I could not agree more! Personally I like romantic relationships that start off as friendships more! It feels more natural and it has that comforting and safe feeling. There is trust and genuine bond, if that is not a great foundation to build a strong romantic relationship I don't know what it is. I am not saying that friendship alone can not be strong. Platonic feelings are just as important and valid, and I am not saying that all friendships should lead to romance. But most romantic relationships start off , or at least should start off an equal ground. Meaning the parties involved should form a bond beforehand before entering a relationship, which can be considered as a form of friendship. Romantic relationships involve friendship as well, cause let's not kid ourselves. Passion alone can not keep a romantic relationship going. Understanding, trust , honestly and respect can. Personally I think treating your life partner as a friend as well is an important part of a relationship, cause if you can not trust your life partner the way you do your best friend what is even the point?

As deadly as those beatings those bullies got

Let's wait together for season 2

🤝

I don't think we are supposed to feel sorry for Oh Beom Seok, but more like understad why he turned out the way he did. His trauma does not excuse his behaviour. We were given an insight on his life in order to see his journey and what made him make the choices he did. All people are different and their choices in a similar situation can be also different. While others in his place could have acted differently, there are also people who would turn the way he did. His actions are not justified but make sense. Oh Beom Seok was bullied for beaing weak in his previous school and that is the reason he got tranferred. In his new school history was about to repeat it self , but Yeon Shi Eun standing up for himself gave him the opportunity to do the right thing by asking Ahn Soo ho to help Yeon Shi Eun. At first he wanted to be friends with the ''cool'' people and get a taste of the good high school life, a normal wish that most kids his age have. At the same time he tried to maintain a low profile but he soon fell victim again, until he saw there were people who could stand up against the bullied. He tried to make it up to Yeon Shi Eun, and he did and Yeon Shi Eun himself forgave him and considered him a friend. He finally felt that he found a place he could belong to, but a simple thing as a ''follow back'' triggered his insecurities. It might feel like a silly thing to get obsessved over, but it fueled his insecurities among other things, like others not seeing him as an equal of his friends which resulted to him doubting his own friends and especially Ahn Soo Ho. In reality, what he was upset about was not the follow back that he never got, but all the unsettled feelings that were created by the constant abuse and bullying he experienced. There were a pile of negative emotions that led him to act this way, the one on the top were his insecurities and the one at the bottom of the pile was the abuse that resulted in the insecurities, at which he acted upon. His reaction to the trauma he is experiencing makes sense as he never really dealt with it, and once he was given the chance to fight against his bullies he was denied so, he felt as of his friends disregred his trauma and that is when he exploded. I do not justify his actions, actually I am pretty mad at him and I wish he had not gotten down this path. I just think it was a nice set up for an antagonist, or a befallen tragedy between friends

I am camping here until I get season 2. In the meantime, I will also catch up to the webtoon.
