Since the affair between the husband and sister is revealed, what if on the day of the child's death, they were having an affair, the sister ran away, the child followed her (to record a video for his mom), and she accidentally pushed him away towards Seonyul's dad's car (or Kim Jun's)? That's why the dad said "Why did he have to get hit by my car?"
It was an ACCIDENT and his dad still should have gotten harsher punishment for PURPOSELY delaying the kid's medical treatment (which is the primary reason that lead to the child's death) and for saying those unremorseful things to FL, but to KILL him out of anger and unremorsefully said she would do it all over again or that she didn't regret her revenge, ofc Seonyul will retaliate.
Two wrongs don't make a right and life for a life don't make it even. In the end, two lives are lost and two families are broken. One lost a child and one lost a father.
Now what if when Seonyul's investigated the accident, he found out about the cheating couple? In his perspective then it was them that lead to these tragedies. To be honest, what Seonyul did is so...small? Like yeah he sent pictures to destroy her family and happiness, but it was them first who betrayed her. He only revealed to her what is actually ALREADY happening. His revenge agendas seems stronger on Yuri with her estranged biological mom finding her again and with Suho with losing his wife, marriage, and nation's husband image. The cheating couple seems to have a lot more to lose due to his actions.
For now I still have no theories on Seonyul's mom's accident. Kim Jun might be the reason but why?
From Seonyul's perspective, his dad is a good father who accidentally killed a child in a hit run and was going to be punished for it (albeit just for a short time due to Kim Jun's intervention). He probably didn't know about what his dad said to FL, only the remorse he has shown in court, apologizing to FL for what he did. So then he sat in the courtroom for FL's trial, hoping to hear the same apology FL expected from his dad that night, only to hear the similar cold response that she didn't regret anything and would do it all over again. Seonyul's experience mirrored that of the FL but for the fact that his dad killed her child, her crime has become "excusable".
Her revenge vigilante justice had led to Seonyul and his mom becoming a collateral damage. In a way, she indirectly lead him to a worser fate than just being a murderer's son by leaving him without his dad's protection. Her life after prison seems to go back to "perfect" too despite the ever presence pain of losing a child. Her mom's restaurant was still doing well, her sister was now a CEO, and her now successful husband wanted her back. She even went on TV to talk about her experience and pain, so he must have felt that it's unfair that her killing his dad seemed to change nothing in her life but change everything in his life. So now he wanted to destroy that seemingly "perfect life" illusion with his own revenge vigilante "justice".
I think this drama is not about who is more likeable or unlikeable, or about whose side you are on, or who you can empathize and understand more. It's more about how revenge begets revenge.
