Comment by K on Wet Sand - Chapter 41

I've seen nextinline account below try to give a summary of what happened last season and they are just writing their own fan fiction so will correct most of their lies.
1.Yes, Jason left Ian with money after his and told him where to pick it after his death. No, Ian has not yet received the money or mentioned any plans on what he'll use it for.
2. No, TJ is not the one who got Ian into the gang. Doyak has stated that Ian is the one who introduced TJ to the gang and we shall see that later.
3. No, TJ is not the one who got Ian into drugs. Infact he was the one that got him to go to rehab and it's implied that Ian got into drugs due to guilt after the death of his mother.
4. Currently, TJ has not forced Ian to be in the gang. In the next chapters you'll see TJ telling Ian to leave but it's Ian who wants to stay then TJ ghosts him.
5. Things like murder and debt are tied to the gang which Ian was a willing participant in the beginning. You incur debt when you get protection in prison. Ian was sent to prison after killing someone. TJ's reasons right now are based on assumptions. We shall see more later on that.
6. TJ hired guys to restrain Ian. Ian got into a fight with them then jumped off a balcony and hurt his leg. TJ was not directly but indirectly involved.
7. Ian and Jo are not dating and are not going on dates. Ian just believes he has a friend in Jo. It's Jo who is developing serious feelings for him. Ian has made it clear he is not looking for a relationship and treated Jo like a one night stand then they decided to be friends. Jo came back and asked to sleep with Ian stating that he will not ask him who he goes to that's why this season Jo is finding it difficult because he is jealous but he knows that Ian owes him nothing.
8. Ian saying he likes Jo was a mistranslation. He said he doesn't hate Jo. This is different from saying you like someone.
Others are correct.

@K Thank you for this. I'm biased with TJ, I love him even more than I love TJIan and I'm aware of it. But I know there's a lot of story to tell yet, and I know there were a lot of hinted things that could end with TJ in a bad spot. Also, I don't hate Jo either. He seems kinda annoying for my taste, but I don't hate him. Said that, I hate how most of the fandom read with their feet. I read that comment you mentioned and seriously... We all have headcanons, that's what fandom is right?, but completely misreading the story because you like/dislike a character...

@K 1) Ian has no plans? Hm...

chapter 6: Ian: "I'll be going somewhere else soon."

Chapter 12, Ian: "I'm getting out of here... As soon as I get the money tied to Jason and as quietly as possible. If I dissappear for around three to four years... That'll be enough time for him too."

Chapter 16, Jason: "Your money is all there, untouched. You can take that and go somewhere far if you want. Or whatever your plan is.

Chapter 21, Ian picks up fake ID so he can leave but TJ later finds out and they fight in chapter 32 over it.

2) Chapter 16, both Ian and TJ are introduced to Jason so I'm not buying your claims that it was Ian who started it, but I can hardly confirm if author has said that elsewhere because I'm just reading the story. But chapter 28, Ian: "We were becoming more and more like monsters. And I never wanted this life from the beginning."

3) I didn't say TJ got Ian into drugs, I literally said "While being with TJ, Ian has been a drug addict". We got to see in that in chapter 8. Also can add: Ian talks there about how his mum died in prison and asks TJ if that would happen to him too while doing drugs, and then TJ uses that exact scenario to blackmail him into choosing between either dying like his mum in prison or have to continue doing crime that he doesn't want to do. Pretty fuc*** up.

@K 4) TJ hasn't forced Ian? And Ian wants to stay? Hm...
chapter 13, Ian on his knees in front of TJ and others: "I don't want to do this anymore... Let me go, Boss."
Convo afterwards:
Jason "He was never suited for this work from the beginning. What can I do? I have to let him do what he wants."
TJ "I need him."
Jason "Hey you're going to make him do those two years-"
TJ "He'll find it hard to survive on clean work anyways. I'm gonna tie him down with money. If he wants to pay it back, he'll have to pay fees for protection during imprisonment, plus interest. All of it."
Jason "Do you think that's go to change his mind? If he was that kind of guy, he wouldn't be doing this right now. He'll kill himself trying to pay it back."
TJ "I know. I'm just buying time."

Chapter 15
Ian "Should I tell Jason I'm going to quit?"
TJ "Why?"
Ian "It's just... I already have some money saved... And I was thinking it might be better to do something else..."
TJ "You did? All this time?
Ian "Yeah, what about you? "
TJ "No way I'm quitting. [...] So don't get any ideas about straying. You know I need you."
Ian's thoughts "Yeah... I know that all too well."

Chapter 26, TJs thoughts: "I can't help but use and lean on your guilt just so I can keep you with me a little longer."

@K 5) Just normal debt for protection? Willing participant? Hm...
Chapter 10, outsider who knows it's effed up: "This arrangement is kinda harsh. Who charges this much for two years prison protection plus interest. Jason probably thought you'd give up on leaving if he demanded this much. [...] But I know he did it cuz he really likes you. So don't be too hard on him, for old times sakes."

6) Let's not minimise TJs involvement in what he caused: chapter 17, "TJ asked us to do it. TJ came to see us last week. He said Ian would be there if we went to the bar that day and asked us to restrain him. We just did as we were asked. Him falling from the second floor really was an accident." As a result, Ian lost his sponsorship, ended up in hospital and didn't have a future where he could leave. In same chapter we see Ian interrupting TJ and thinking it's better to pretend to not know.

7) Chapter 6, first date eating.

Chapter 15, second date stargazing.

Chapter 18, Jo: "Whenever I'm with you, my palms get all sweaty because I'm nervous. And I worry you might hear how loudly my heart is pounding. So... I don't want you to be comfortable with me like that either. You shouldn't play around with people like that." And they kiss. Chapter 19-20, they fu** and call each other se**, attractive and cute. Chapter 20, Ian "Last night was fun." And leaves. Chapter 21 Ian regrets it going "Urgh. Did I overdo it? He looked at me with a dumbfounded expression. It's better this way. It's best to end things here. I say too much when I'm with him."

Chapter 22, Jo: "That day... I really thought we were on the same page with how we felt. But I guess I was mistaken." And he leaves.

Chapter 23, Ian regrets it and go looking for Jo but Jo's in hospital.

Chapter 27, Ian apologised to Jo at Cafe and brings him to cemetery. Next chapter 28, Jo asks to be friends. Chapter 30, they have dinner as friends. Chapter 31, they go to cinema. Chapter 33, Jo finds Ian sleeping with another guy. Chapter 34, Ian looks for Jo feeling guilty and says he did it to be able to fall asleep but Jo don't believe it and leaves. Chapter 36 (not posted on this site), Jo says sorry for leaving. Ian thinks "I'm scared I might break you too." Jo says "I just realised I want to be with. So let me. Don't say things like that to push me away. Don't you like me?" Ian responds, "It's not that... I do like you, that's the problem." They kiss and Ian thinks "It made me want to test my wretched fate one more time." And then they fu** two chapters. And when he's supposed to celebrate Christmas with Jo's family, he finds out about Jason and TJ.

8) I don't know Korean but considering you've lied multiple times while accusing me of lying, I'm going to believe the translation over a liar.

@Nextinline Honestly you're so dense it's painful. And you really lack reading comprehension so am not gonna go back and forth with you. I couldn't even read past your second point because i realized this is serious delusion i mean if your even refuting the author's claims then you're a lost cause.

NextinlineMember·2 years ago

@K It was hard when you were disproven, huh? I'm not refuting the author considering the author isn't making any claims here, I'm refuting lies you've made.

K·2 years ago

@Nextinline I had actually started typing to disapprove your lies until i realized all this is basic english and comprehension so i was like huh not my problem because i understand people are dense out there. So a statement that the author made concerning her own work and the work in dispute is irrelevant? See what i mean? You're clearly used to showcasing your stupidity so just do you lol.

@Nextinline Fine let me hold your hand again. 1. AFTER. AFTER. AFTER. I said Ian in the present has not yet received the money he was supposed to get after Jason's death. He has also not made plans CURRENTLY on what he will use the money for. In your comment you CLAIMED Ian was gonna use the money to leave TJ, i was saying that's a LIE because we know nothing for now. It has nothing to do with what we already know about Ian wanting to leave previously.
2. Doyak said it. Take it up with her.
3. Your statement insinuated that TJ had something to do with Ian's drug addiction. That is a LIE because Ian stopped doing drugs for TJ, when TJ cried. So if he did drugs while in the gang, nothing to do with TJ okay?
4. CURRENTLY. I said currently. I read ahead so wait and see Ian changing his mind. TJ says no to Ian going back to the gang by the way.
5. Yes TJ had some selfish reasons but can Ian would have had to pay for some form of protection either way. Two things can co exist.
6. I did not deny this. I said TJ was involved indirectly. Some of you act like TJ held a hammer and smashed Ian's leg himself.
7. This is the funniest one. Does Ian know he's dating and going on dates with Jo?
8. Suit yourself
