falling for all the loser in love characters in a show/book that try to come off as cool and indifferent is so fun cuz their future partner be doing weird shit and embarrassing themselves and you'll be silently screaming and hiding your face cuz of the second hand embarrassment but then you realize this fool with heart eyes is definitely squealing like they got a high school crush and hypothetically kicking their legs and punching the air over that and that helps you calm down

So...episode 5 of Love Next Door implies that Seung-hyo's love for Tae-Hee was never as strong or passionate as his love for Seok-ryu, but honestly? I kind of disagree with that assessment, not just because Seung-hyo actively denies it but because it's pretty clear that he's the kind of person who loves quietly. He's not one who conjures up grand compliments on demand but someone who watches their lover closely through their lows and highs, thinks about their perspectives to help them make their own choices, and shows his affection through little things like washing their clothes or sitting with them in the rain. Tae-Hee uses the metaphor that his love was like a low flame on a gas stove and...I know the show is trying to say he wasn't as invested in his relationship with Tae-Hee, but I also think that analogy fits his relationship with Seok-Ryu, having a love that's not aired out on display, something constant and steady, something that has lasted years and still offers a place to return to (plus cooking metaphors rahhh). It's not a bad thing to have a calmer, collected type of romance that honestly provides the stability that both of them needed throughout their lives—nor is Tae Hee's desire for a more passionate, openly affectionate relationship wrong either. I think ultimately, the reason Tae Hee and Seung-hyo were incompatible isn't that one of them wasn't putting in enough effort because he was subconsciously still in love with his childhood crush living an ocean away, but because they both needed different things from their relationship and expressed their loves in different ways.

SOMEONE get Jon out of there- my man stopped the apocalypse only to be subjected to reading aloud Reddit threads and blog posts as a digital entity.
Truly a fate worse than death.
