I'd love it if Seol-a managed to overcome this on her own too. But I really don't think she's in a situation where she can physically defend herself. She's clearly drunk out of her mind, and Kyung-woo isn't.
I personally think if there's a parallel to the first time No-rae saved Seol-a, it will really strengthen their emotional bond, and connect the story together nicely plot-wise. In a world where everyone, man or woman, wants to take advantage of Seol-a, (except Ji-hwan and Min-jung), No-rae is kinda like her saviour. And I think if No-rae does save Seol-a again, she'll realize how much No-rae cares about her. Seol-a would question why No-rae would save her, when she was previously giving her the cold shoulder treatment. Who knows, maybe this would force No-rae to confess her feelings and explain why she wanted to ensure Seol-a's safety or why she was ignoring Seol-a before.
Even at this point in the story, Seol-a is still pretty dense/naive when it comes to love (for example when she said "Whether I drink a lot or not... is she my bf or what"). No-rae doesn't want to reveal her feelings for Seol-a. These two need events like this to catalyze their relationship, because otherwise it wouldn't go anywhere.
Yep, I think it's me wanting that personal victory for Seol-a, showing she isn't a child/naive like Ji-hwan says and No-rae refuses to believe, but in reality, I can accept she probably still is. While Seol-a may gain something at that moment, the other scenerio of No-rae showing up and helping will help their relationship and also Seol-a and her future. My excuse about Seol-a and texts won't quite cut it.
I say I don't want a parallel, but I think I'm going to love it just as much if it is. As you said, these events are necessary for their relationship and this one in particular. They were able to become friends through the first incident, but now, with how close they are and the current tension, this is definitely the biggest hurdle for them since the start of the story. I expect it to be a lot heavier than the first incident, with much greater consequences.
Sorry I have essentially reaffirmed what you just said, but yeah haha
