@Rheia "Maybe TJ should have respected Ian's decision to take drugs and just watch his loved one die?" I think that if Ian had known he would end up killing people and becoming a monster for Tj's sake, he would have preferred to die of an overdose right then and there. And the fact that after everything Ian went through with his addiction Tj still makes him deliver drugs it's pretty twisted.
I won't keep trying to explain to you what I'm pretty sure you already know. But since you like to quote the author. Let me share this: "Ian tries to leave his past behind and turn a new leaf. For the first time he learns what it's like to live an ordinary life but his old friend and lover Tj, REFUSES TO LET HIM GO." The author's words, not mine. (Tappytoon interview) And when the manhwa was released, she introduced Tj's character with the # 집착공 (OBSESSED TOP) Apparently it was lost on you how Tj's been presented time and time again as an obstacle preventing Ian from achieving the life he wants and deserves. So yeah I don't think Tj is good for Ian. That's what I was trying to say in my original post, but somehow you turned it into something else.
@Zarathustra The only one who needs to chill is you, buddy. There was no rudeness in my words, but only a sincere desire to help you with your obvious problems with reading comprehension. You really should stop twisting the plot by trying to make TJ the root of all problems. Perhaps you forgot, but Ian was already attacked several times when he was a member of the gang, which already suggests that there is someone who has personal reasons to get rid of him. And it's so stupid to say that "Tj's the one putting him in danger by keeping him tied to him" when the truth is that Ian himself chose to be with TJ because he loves him. Now about motocross. Although TJ had the best intentions and a desire to protect his loved one, he himself admitted that he should not have made such a decision alone and therefore wanted to immediately tell Ian about everything. In TJ's understanding, riding motorcycles is indeed much more dangerous than being a member of a gang, because in the first case he will not be able to protect Ian. And we already know that TJ is even willing to sacrifice his life to keep Ian safe, like when he went against the whole gang and even got a scar on his face. If we talk about prison, then as the story progresses it should become clear to all readers that this was the best way out of the situation. Ian's condition after he brutally killed his subordinate was extremely unstable, and the one who organized the attack was not caught, so this could happen again at any moment. Also, we don’t know anything about what it was like for Ian in prison, so you shouldn’t invent how dangerous it was there and that he had to pay for protection. It is obvious that TJ would not send his loved one to such a place without taking care of all possible problems.
@Zarathustra It's actually so funny to watch how you twist the facts and try to make Ian look like a weak-willed doll and TJ a villain to blame for all the misfortunes. When was it said in the story that Ian kill people and become a monster “for Tj's sake”? After all, the truth is that Ian came to the gang even earlier than TJ, understanding what it entailed. It is also stupid to say that someone would rather die from an overdose than receive help from a loved one. If we talk about drug delivery, this has not yet been revealed in the story, but obviously in a gang this is the easiest job that does not involve violence and brings good money. And I am really familiar with the words of the author and she herself wrote that she has nothing to do with such synopses and asked to stop distorting the plot by trying to make TJ look like a villain, but obviously it’s easier for Jo stans to listen to her words only when they like it. Also apparently it was lost on you how TJ's was presented time and time again as a person whom Ian loves and wants to be with but due to certain circumstances they are not yet able to be together. So yeah, from your original post I saw that you have serious difficulties with reading comprehension and I just wanted to help you, but unfortunately this is impossible.
