My Lovely Samsoon

I am seeing a Korean drama on youtube. It's called ' My lovely Sam-soon'. It belongs to the romantic, comedy genre and is set in Seoul, Korea. The series is at a stage where the male protagonist has broken up with his previous girlfriend and finally moving ahead with Sam-soon ( the female protagonist of the series). But his ex-girlfriend has a history of Gastric cancer and because of stress caused by the breakup, has turned anorexic.
I see that most comments in this episode are strongly against her taking support from Jin-Hun at the moment. Really makes me wonder that so many people out there still see the world as Black & White. But for me I realized long ago that the human world is almost all Grey. I don't remember who said this but I still repeat " The difference between fact and fiction is that fiction has to make sense and fact seldom does so." And hence the reason behind most fiction having a protagonist and an antagonist.
But Hee-Jin I feel is not an antagonist. She is just another human living her life. She made tough decisions too. She was born in a privileged family but that doesn't make her struggle any less difficult for her personally. Whether her decision was right or wrong is all in the hands of Fate. But when she made it, it was still a tough decision. She left her love and the life she knew behind to go fight a battle. She wanted to spare her love the agony of seeing her die. She didn't call him once because she trusted him implicitly and nurtured the hope that he would be able to do so too. She won the battle and comes back to reclaim her right, as she presumed his love to be. But she finds him bitter and also moving away from her.
She doesn't seem like an antagonist. Look at it from her eyes. They had loved each other for long and trusted each other. The tough decision she made was still keeping him in mind. She wages a silent battle against cancer away from home and love. Finally, she wins and is able to come back and hope to make amends and start off from where she left. But not only does she find her trust misplaced but also that Jin-Hun has fallen for Sam-soon. What should have been hers rightfully has been usurped by Sam-soon. Moreover, Jin-Hun's mother, who adored her once is unwilling to accept that she is completely cured and does not wish to take her back.
All the stress would make even a completely hale person to get ulcers, I think. Her condition is much delicate. If at this stage she doesn't want to meet Sam-soon, I guess I understand. Is it wrong for her to even expect any kind of sympathy or apology or affection from Jin-Hun? I guess not, after all she's human. As are we all. Weak creatures who depend so much on others, expect so much from others. We want affection, company, sympathy, encouragement, reprisals, anger and love. But it is these weaknesses that make a stronger human. You haven't lived if you did not expect anything from anybody ever.
Does Hee-Jin hope that she can get back with Jin-Hun - yes. Does she think that Jin-Hun would cut her some slack because of all that she went through - maybe. Is anything wrong in hoping that - I don't think so. Is she using her illness as a crutch - definitely not.
If her hope and longing make her an antagonist then we all are antagonists too. For which of us has not hoped and not longed for, whatever it is that the heart runs after. Was her decision right or wrong is not for anyone to say. She herself wishes that she could turn back time and redo everything. But that gift is not granted us, just like we are not granted the gift of foresight. For what would we live if we could see it all at one glance.
