She was literally just fixing his hair. I get he misread the situation but saying dude got a gf just because he was spending some time with girl doesn't mean anything. Come on now I spend time with this guy everyday and I wont call him my bf and hes not going to call me his gf either. Can we normalize being friends with different gender? That's such an overreacting on MC's part
@Kiro imo, that was perfect. When you're into someone your judgement is usually clouded and you interpret things the way you want to, based on this feelings, regardless of with a positive or negative connotation. The author perfectly showed how quick the MC was to draw the wrong conclusion based on his feelings for the ML and personal insecurities. I think most of us can relate to the MC, especially at that young age
@Kiro I kinda get where he's coming from because I've also seen some of my female friends fixing my crushes hair and it feels sad. I mean it's not about normalising female and male friendships but more about how most people don't let anyone touch them so casually and also he mentioned earlier that he likes physical touches from people he likes and maybe the MC thinks that he likes dajeong because he let her touch his hair?
@Claudiu Yeah i don't think he overreacted at all being a 17/16 years old kid thats head over heels for someone its not crazy that he'll misunderstand the sitation. He was still learn and trying to understand life.
@Kiro if you're alone in a room, sitting together, faces close and one hand touching the person you're with 100% if people will think it's romantic. He made a pretty normal assumption
