Sometimes in a relationship when someone has betrayed you and you're trying very hard to forgive and move on because you love them there comes a time when you know you can't fake it anymore. It's exhausting and tiring, and pretending to forgive and move on just doesn't work.
A lot of times you think of that in what should the happy, easy moments. You think "things are so great right now, I should be happy" but the truth is you haven't been able to let go of that betrayal. The trust isn't there, and though you've been able to be happy sometimes, that lack of trust is slowly destroying you and your partner. So I completely understand Sungji leaving during the festival. Having been in Sungji's shoes of trying to move on after a partner's betrayal, I relate to her choice here.
She said that she would not let the person she loved be hurt anymore? Does "the person she loves" refer to herself or something?
However, if her reason is she realizes Sumin loves Seju more than her and she bravely admits defeat according to her character's nice personality, it still can be called a commendable act.
Then she should have bravely said that to Sumin like how Dawoon's ex said to Dawoon.
Or she realizes that she has won. But because of choosing her, Sumin is going to have the biggest regret in life for not being by Seju's side during the time Seju needs her the most. In this case, she should have tried to endure the pain to be by Sumin's side and let Sumin take care of Seju.
Her leaving will hurt the person she loves, which contradicts to what she said. How is that commendable?
In order for Sumin to truly know where her heart lies she needs to be free from both Seju and Sungji
She needs to become a monk.
