Tbh..... I agree with you to a certain extent..... Min jiwook just had to leave for America when he had the chance.... The whole pride situation didn't get him anywhere except for getting him trauma..... I know it's hard but he had to swallow his pride, let Mr Director pay for his debt, study and later on start paying back Mr Director... I swear it would have been better than being raped continuously.. Working like a slave.. Having no food.. Clothes or even a decent place to stay.... I just think he made his life more difficult coz of his pride tbh.
