HE RANG THE DOORBELL!!

To his own house!!!

Just so he could be greeted by his sunbae. Because he doesn’t have to endure everything silently alone.

God I love these guys’ relationship.

It's official: Yeo Joon is my new sad wet pathetic poor little meow meow. Blorbo activated. He's a bastard. He's baby. He's my lover. He's mansplain, manipulate, malewife. Something's fundamentally wrong with him. He's done nothing wrong ever in his life. He' s behind everything, likely an illuminati member. I am obsessed. Currently rotating him in my head like a rotisserie chicken.

Why give up? When you can write your own ending to your story.

Yeojoon | At a Distance the Spring is green

[astarlightmonbebe]

“it’s the only thing i learned. give and take. there’s nothing that i got for free,” perfectly encapsulates the essence of yeo joon. yeo joon hasn’t ever experienced healthy or good relationships. his family is physically, verbally, and emotionally abusive. it’s left him insecure, deeply traumatized, and isolated, and insofar, yeo joon’s trajectory through at a distance, spring is green has reflected the brunt of that trauma and how it has influenced and warped him. he doesn’t know what a healthy relationship is. healthy relationships are something he has seen, but due to never experiencing it himself, he has no idea how to actually build a healthy relationship and how to interact with people in a ‘normal’ way. this is why all of yeo joon’s relationships are superficial, why he only builds relationships through manipulation and spending money. his whole life, he’s been attempting to replicate what healthy relationships are, but because he hasn’t ever experienced them for himself, he uses the same tactics he’s grown up with to to try and build good relationships, which of course further results in none of his surrounding relationships being good, real, or healthy. 

this is why sobin and soohyun are so important to his character growth and development. with sobin, joon genuinely likes her, but he doesn’t have any experience with having romantic feelings for her. sobin is a person he doesn’t necessarily know how to navigate, which is why he uses his more manipulative tactics to try and trap her. it’s why he makes sure to set it up so that she’ll come to him and end things with chanki; because chanki is, of course, a threat to him, and for someone like joon, who’s never been chosen first, who is literally second to his family and has grown up as such (when he’s acknowledged at all), chanki is a threat to something he wants. does he know his actions are manipulative? yes. but he also believes his intentions are good (while also knowing he’s being selfish), because he understands where sobin stands, and he wants to do to her what he’s unable to do with his own family, which is cut off an unhealthy relationship to her. of course, while he’s right about the fact that chanki isn’t necessarily a good or exemplary friend, chanki is not his family. this further represents the tendency yeo joon has to project his own familial relationships onto everyone else around him, such as when he sees soohyun and his younger brother. it’s why he’s so scared when he’s finally honest, because he wants sobin to stick around, he wants her to like him, but no one has ever actually liked him before.

with soohyun, it’s a bit of a different story. soohyun is more representative of what yeo joon is used to; not necessarily give and take, but something similar, like he states at the end of episode four: he’s good at being clingy, at holding on, and soohyun is good at pushing away. that’s a familiar rhythm to yeo joon, which he can navigate with more ease than he can his own relationship with sobin. unlike everyone around him, soohyun doesn’t like yeo joon on a surface level, and he can’t be swayed by manipulation or money. he sees straight through yeo joon, though that doesn’t exactly equate to him seeing yeo joon, or even that he meant to get right to yeo joon’s core, to peeling back his mask. he just knows yeo joon isn’t the image he projects to the world. soohyun, like sobin, gives yeo joon honesty, even when blunt. they both aren’t afraid to say what they mean or state is as it is, even though sobin isn’t as blunt as soohyun - she still gathers up her courage and confronts people when it comes down to it. soohyun, too, puts up his own mask, his own front, which is what makes their dialogue so emotionally tense, because they both are somewhat cruel to each other, but not exactly; their words and exchanges are barbed and they are both relentless people. as seen in the recent episode, yeo joon has also obviously latched onto the idea that soohyun could sort of be the brother he never had, especially after seeing him interact his own brother. he seeks tenderness, a different sort than from sobin, or a girlfriend, but something familially and friendly, something secure. i could go on and on about their dynamic, but i’ll cut it short.

anyways, if anyone wants to come and talk about aadsig, please hmu <3
