i want to elaborate but i can't explain it well, fuck i just want to hold up orv and point at it aggressively like. you get it! i don't have to explain it. it's not even about the crush specifically, just that jihye was also incredibly important for his survival in a different way than yoo joonghyuk because at that point yoo joonghyuk was more saviour; more adult rushing in to keep you safe whereas lee jihye was kim dokja's age and saving herself WITH yoo joonghyuk's help.

again, you get it. you get the themes. everyone's a mirror of everyone else i love orv i have to die now
