I am so fed up of people blaming yeon su for the relationship failing. Like yes her communication skills are lacking…
I am so used to seeing FLs getting flakes for the tinniest things that now I have become indifferent to it... Let's accept the fact that no matter what happens the FLs will be the least understood characters by the majority of the audience... I am also watching the red sleeve and there also the FL is getting blamed for not accepting the ML even though she has more than enough reasons to not accept him... Most audience only see the pain and hardship of the ML and not the FL even though more than half of the audience are females...

I don't think it's that kind of drama with people having ulterior motives and backstabbing... Also he was simply just joking about being a bad boy... The only way he might make a move on yeonso is if he feels ung has moved on to someone else and yeonso shows some kind of interest in him... With ung it's not just friendship he is risking, he is risking an entire family he has... Even if he decides to pursue yeonso i feel he will be honest with ung and won't go behind his back...
