@Thato Mashigo (Part 2 of 2)
3. There have been a few times (ch.3 and ch.8) where Dan physically fought back against Jae. I'm not gonna post a link to every chapter, but as the story progresses, you see him become conditioned to fight back less and less. However, that does not negate the fact that he does not want to have s** with Jae. He is still vocal about his discomfort. He asks Jae several times during their encounters to stop, slow down, wait, please be gentler, and Jae ignores him every time. While he is not being physically held down and forced to comply, Dan is still being assaulted. This is a type of coercion that violates the other person under the pretense that they have previously given consent and can't change their mind. It's very dangerous.

I can go on and on lol. I think I've given you enough analysis with evidence to prove my point. "Dan had a choice" simplifies a complex situation in a way that overlooks the inherent wrongness of Jaekyung's actions. Consent is more complex than agreeing to engage, especially in the context of s**.
