One of the saddest scenes might have been yung Dongbaek crying out that she was hungry and her mother being powerless to do anything about it. Honestly sometimes life is just shit and it doesn't matter how careful you are with your choices, sometimes shit just happens.
Also q re the DNA thing - how come the DNA didn't match Hyung Sik? I'm not sure I really understood that part.
He did a shitty thing but from what she was saying about him, he just seemed like a stressed out actor who didn't…
Yeah, definitely true. He was a bit callous giving out money but seems like he felt pressured, and by the looks of it, the girl was as manipulative as he was. I think she also felt entitled towards him because she was there to support him, but felt vindicated when he shot to fame and she was left with the scars of their relationship.

Yeah, agree with you as well. Even if she was able to bring a child to this world, there's no guarantee that the child would've been happy with two quarrelling parents. Plus who knows maybe they'd both hate their child for much the child would've changed both their lives.
It honestly disturbs me that so many of you are in the comments defending a sick man like him. The man forced…
Meh, I don't think having a rational opinion translates at all to automatic "defence" of someone's ill behaviour. They were both in the wrong. It doesn't mean that what the girl went through is any less. It's still despicable. It seems that she is angry because she made a sacrifice for him which did not bear fruit. Considering that she herself knew her low chances of pregnancy, she still chose to abort the child. It may have been wrong to pressure someone, but she wasn't unaware. She was wilfully blind because she was hoping for a miracle, for him to change his mind so that he would stand by her.
Although, in her defence, she seemed to have been so completely in love with him that she was willing to risk everything so at the time with how vulnerable she may have been feeling, she probably didn't even understand what was happening in her relationship. As for him, it is really shitty not to communicate, and to lead people on, but it's not a crime. It's shitty but it's understandable that in a high-pressured industry like theirs that any wrong move, any baby scandal could spell the end for their career. He definitely could have handled that better but they were both in the wrong. It's just sad that now it's all about vindication and tit for tat. Hopefully they all heal.
Being neutral when the offending party apologizes means you're taking the offending party's side. They're mitigating…
Not true. The "either or" analysis just puts an obligation for a person to pick a side. The truth is most often always in the middle so it can sometimes be a big obligation to pressure people to pick a side. Sure, for a wine spillage, there might be a clear offending party, but it isn't always clear cut - what about the space in a room, the intentions of the person holding the glass, how slippery the glass may be, what if the people stepped and moved at the same time and so that also contributed to the spillage? Although sometimes there may be a clear offending party, it isn't always black and white. You can have both people in the wrong/right.
Hmm not sure how to analyse this. Being a shitty person isn't a crime. It looks like it was a messy relationship to start with with both of them having different expectations. Giving money for an abortion isn't really co-ercion perse, more like persuasion. I agree it's still wrong but she could have refused. Although it does depend on how she was feeling at the time, but I understand where they're both coming from. She sounds like she's still hurting and he seems like he's just focussing on his career which makes him act so protective of his success. No winners here, really.
I found Morgan to be toxic sometimes - he continually pushed for his ideals and values to be reflected and was…
Probably not abuse, per se. I don't think it really has escalated to that level. I think she's just very aware of the timeline that their relationship has - she knows it's going to end because they have diff values and/or at some time if she wants to keep him, that she'll have to change everything about herself, so she'll end up resenting him and they'll eventually break up.
I really don't think both of them were toxic at all, maybe some things could be construed as potentially being toxic, but I wouldn't say it crossed so far into that boundary.
