I agree with some of this but not all of them.
I'm not taking sides here because both are sympathetic...
Taejung had a hard time during these 5 years and it's natural to have a new BF and he doesn't have to dump his BF but just imagine
They were together since they've been born for 30 years... they were friends before being lovers and you will wake up one day then your lifehood friend and lover dumped you for someone new who's been dating for 6 months...
Yes, He shouldn't give Jooyon hallow hope but he doesn't have to be this cruel and cold...
Also, it's obvious that he's not overing Jooyon either...
He can give Jooyon and himself some time to talk, communicate and let him to understand the situation then break up for good... ghosting him is not the answer...
