Realistically, yeongbeom won’t ever escape his mother by himself. Do you know the stories of animal in circus? When they’re rescued and had their cage opened, they don’t have the courage to run away. This is why until old age he stays trapped and live miserably.

Now if geummyeong chose to protect and save him, she would suffer. Because his mom will do everything so she can control them, for example making them lose their job so they rely on her. From what I see in real life, people like yeongbeom will take a really long time to get themselves together. Because they had been controlled their whole life.

So the question is, if he love geummyeong as much as gwansik love aesun, why is it so hard for him to fight? We need to compare both those man’s live. Gwansik’s mom and grandma tortured aesun too. But gwansik was raised in patriarchal family, the position of men is higher than the women. The status of his wife, daughter, mother, sister is lower than him. He actually does have choice in his life. If you notice the scene before he takes aesun away, his mom and grandma did not scold him for defending her but tried to prove that they’re right in scolding her.

Yeongbeom has been controlled his whole life so he never got such choice. Of course this is why gwansik is amazing, living in that kind of family yet he didn’t turn into these patriarchal incel. Realistically I don’t think geummyeong and yeongbeom would ever get together again unless his mom dies. And seeing him in his old age remind me of those uncles that seem to have normal life but fucked up inside. Unfortunately for geummyeong and yeongbeom, the amount of love is the same as gwansik-aesun but not for their fate.

Maybe, unfortunately I can’t just say he didn’t man up enough. From what I’ve learned with victims of obsessive control freak, it’s extremely hard to convince they could actually leave. They don’t have the same psychological strength as normal people. They need some form of support to actually do that.

Of course I’m not saying that geummyeong made a wrong decision. It’s gonna be an uphill battle. You’re right he would be too weak to fight against his mom, and maybe he’s gonna be the one needs the saving. Even I would make the same choice to leave him. So I just want him to have his peace. Although maybe the only way he could ever have peace is his mother passing or his own passing

The timeline indicator is everywhere in this drama. This person died, this person won the election, the new policies for this era, I think it’s all to immerse viewers that experienced those timelines

Just read the comments few level below this one lol

I’m allowed to feel annoyed, especially since the ‘good’ fan like you aren’t rebutting them

I don’t think he in the end never left because he couldn’t. But because there is no reason to. The first time he wanted to rebel against his mom, the result is he hurt geummyeong and still couldn’t be with her. He has learned that nothing would ever go his way so he just live the way his mom wants. Being with geumyeong used up all the will he has. After that he is just left with the shell of his previous self.

Just like aesun said, the weight of everything his mom done falls back on yeongbeom.

For me, I don’t even ask him and geummyeong to get back together. I just want to see him undo what all his mother forced him to do and live for himself. I hate it when a child had to suffer because of their parents. Hope he get his peace

For me I just hate his fans, even before he came to the screen they tried to upstage park bogum by making their own poster for this drama. And their audacity to say that this drama will become big coz seonho cameo, when this drama is already topping the charts lol

This made me remember during startup how his fan said he carried the drama and throw hate to suzy and nam joohyuk

The fact that his life is miserable until old age…

I’m still crying at the corner… I hate those first love never works kind of ending

Yeah it’s too sad… he’s suffering for the rest of his life…

A lifetime is too long to rest it on a single choice, is exactly what yeongbeom life can be described as. His hesitation caused his whole life to ruin, his body still living but his soul gone. I know it’s hard to expect him to make different choice, but seeing him suffer like that makes my heart ache…

This is why my most preferred sad ending is if it ends with death, cause it’s force majeure, there’s nothing you can do about it. This on other hand… I can’t imagine living my whole life thinking what would have happened if I made different choice.

I wanna hope the same but that would be too bleak… the fact that they couldn’t find another who they could love so deeply

I’m also not sure about that, maybe we would found out when she starts to work how that study abroad affected her career

He had such pretty cry but I don’t wanna see his cry again, I’ve had enough 😭😭

Comedy? More like tears. There’s some comedy on the first and second volume but I couldn’t laugh at all watching the third vol

Ikr😭😭 I thought nothing could top ep6, but yeah as IU said, the third volume is even sadder😭

I thought junyoung is a villain specialist, but no, he isn’t villain or sad boy specialist, he specializes in torturing the viewers😭

Yeah it’s more painful that after twist and turn in the end she never got the type of spouse she wanted…
I hope geummyeong won’t experience the same thing…

I cried when he kneeled to warm up her feet, why does fate plays a joke on them?! They’re so perfect for each other and yet…
I really don’t think geummyeong made a wrong decision, she made the right decision for her and her parent’s wellbeing, what I hate is why does she need to make such choice?!!

Don’t remind me of this😭 I hate those type of first love never works out story….
Why torture us with all the sweetness if they don’t end up together?😭😭
