Everyone's like "oh no poor Thomas" "oh Thomas and that necklace" "oh Thomas must be so sad in the safe haven"
Minho thought he could save Newt, too
And let's think about this for a moment.
Minho never actually got to say goodbye
Newt didn't give Minho anything
Minho literally gets saved by Newt only to discover that he's infected and will probably die. He then runs around trying to get the cure for him only to arrive to see his best friend laying on the ground with a knife through his chest after being left in the arms of Thomas
And Newt and Minho go way back
If we're following the movie then we have in the comic that Newt and Thomas were best buds. But that was before the maze.
In the maze we have Minho running around and then finding Newt laying on the ground half dead and dragging his body back to the glade.
We have Minho having to recover himself from that and trying to make sure Newt never gets to that depressed point ever again.
We have Minho trying to protect Newt at all costs
We have Minho getting so happy when he sees Newt smile again
Yeah, sure, Thomas comes and him and Newt have a connection, but Newt literally risks his life for Minho
Refusing to stay and wait with Gally for the serum, and instead running around with Thomas to find Minho because "Minho comes first"
Minho is the one to write Newt's name on the rock.
And Thomas probably never even showed Minho that note. Minho was the one who found it and gave it back to him and Thomas knows that it is their last piece of Newt. Thomas knows how far Minho and Newt go back and he knows how much Minho is dying inside. ( And in the book he promises to never tell Minho what happened to Newt and in the movie he never shows him the letter that newt wrote to him)
Basically, Minho is suffering. And it's overlooked
