i honestly don't know if i'm valid for this, for siding with beomgyu (despite the fact that the poor man is not even siding with himself) but i do want to say that while running away from the table was a cowardly thing to do - sejin involved or not - it isn't so wrong because he IS scared shitless of what jongseo could say or do because of how effortlessly she established that she has the upper hand between them, and if giving himself space is how he deals with it then i think even if yeonjun cannot respect it (which is rightful bc bg couldnt do what yj asked of him) i at least wish poor bg would cut himself some slack. he can't hear me but i'd like to tell him the decisions he's making aren't perfect but that it's okay and he doesn't always have to berate himself for taking the easy way out, because he almost never does so one time is okay. though i am saying all this about 10% into the chapter i really pray he doesn't do something in the upcoming scenes that make me want to eat my words...
you feelings are valid. itâs completely natural to see the human vulnerability in bg. he is terrified, and when you're looking at a situation from a place of pure panic, stepping away to find a pocket of space feels like the only way to survive the moment. itâs not actually that jongseo has the upper hand, she never really did. the real center of gravity here is yoojun. bc yoojun is now directly involved, everything changes. jongseo emphasizes with absolute clarity that she doesnât really care if this is just about yeonjun anymore; her priority is her child. on the flip side, yj is always, always going to prioritize his son, but the beautiful, heartbreaking thing is that he wants bg to become a part of that family too. so itâs not just a battle between exes or partners anymore; itâs about the reality of the four of them trying to fit into the same space. it is incredibly messy, i knowđ
